I needed someone to look at a ring that was in my late mother's jewelry box. I suspected it was…read morecostume jewelry. It looked kind of beat up, and I didn't care for its light blue stone. A woman quickly was happy to help me. She looked at it under enlargement, then with great confidence said, "It's a blue topaz with little diamonds around the side, and the ring is (some)teen carat gold." Wow. My own personal Antiques Roadshow moment! And no charge, long-distance travel or waiting in line. She offered to clean it too, free of charge. I of course accepted!

I highly, highly recommend working with Morgan from Nord for one-of-kind heirloom jewelry redesign…read more Fine jewelry and jewelry redesign were completely new territory for me. Working with Morgan, I felt an instant connection and she made me feel comfortable asking questions, sharing ideas and guiding me through the entire process. The result of my custom engagement ring is something I never could have imagined. It's hard to put into words how truly beautiful the design is. It's absolutely stunning. I love having a unique piece that tells a family story and gives an heirloom a second life. Morgan's design experience brought my vision to another level. The design is modern, yet timeless and honors the original design integrity of the ring - with some edge. It's perfect. It's exactly what I wanted, without knowing what I wanted. If you're on the fence about an heirloom redesign - I highly recommend going into Nord and asking for Morgan. The possibilities are endless and the final product you'll get is something more beautiful than you've ever imagined. Lastly, the quality and craftsmanship of the Nord jewelers is best in class. This ring's story will live on forever and be passed down for generations.

In January I lost an earring that my husband got me for an anniversary 28 years ago. I wore them ALL the time. Maura said to give her some time, she would do her best to find a new pair. About 4 weeks went by and I received a call that my earrings were in and ready for pick up. I was so pleasantly surprised when I saw them, they are almost identical to the original ones. The staff as well as Jim, are just great people they truly care. They take a little longer with jobs but I've always been very happy. Great place, trusting, kind people

This store has a closing sale and I previously stopped in 4/22 to check out pricing. I came back in…read more4/24/25 with my boyfriend with the main purpose to look at engagement rings. We had a great experience to start with Steve, an associate there. He was pleasant, knowledgeable, and very funny and kind. He and I both attended WMU and majored in music so we hit it off talking about that and then the 3 of us had similar interests we talked about. He was showing the Rêvelation brand lab created rings. The one I liked best ended up being a 2 CTW 3 stone oval ring for under $1.8k which was a wonderful deal!! I tried on 6 Engagement rings, and 4 or 5 different wedding bands to match them. At this point, my boyfriend was asking multiple questions about pricing, if this location closes in Portage can we still get maintenance or service from the sister-stores, in case we don't buy it from Portage can we possibly work out similar a 30% discount or otherwise, then what is the down payment. He wanted to start the purchase process that day. The owner of the store came up and in said a rude and impatient voice that all of the rings needed to be put back and cleaned now because "we need to get ready to shut down and close". It was about 5:35-5:40PM EST and there were multiple patrons still in the store looking around. Then he told me I had tried on too many rings, I'm just trying on everything without making a decision, and everything needed to be put away. He also held out one of the last rings I had just tried on and said, "do you want this one? Is this the one you actually wanted!?" I didn't reply because I shocked and embarrassed. At this point multiple patrons were looking at us and even Steve, the associate helping us, looked very uncomfortable. I eventually said no, that's not the one I'm thinking of and the manager said, "ok, we're putting them away and you could come back tomorrow!" Steve apologized multiple times and I reassured him that I appreciated his help and took his card. The fact that such an exciting moment was ruined truly hurt my feelings. My boyfriend and I should have been celebrating and having fun; not angry and me sitting in my car outside of the shop after this incident crying. I've left a detailed message with the corporate office as well about this. I recommended the shop to my friends before but they also will not go there. My boyfriend and I had smaller items we were going to purchase that evening and we put them back also so multiple sales were lost. My boyfriend actually tried on more men's wedding rings than I did! I was also gauging his favorite choice as well to grab before the shop closed next month. We were both very courteous and kind the entire time we shopped that day. If this matters- and I believe it might have- I'm black and my boyfriend is white. If this review was only about the great service from Steve, fun we had and the beautiful, high quality pieces both my boyfriend and I tried on them I would have given this review a 5 but I just can't. I cannot recommend the Portage location to anyone anymore.

A real bummer. Long story short, initial experience was great. Great looking product, impressive…read morepresentation, my wife and I left looking forward to a quote (via phone) for a couple stone options. After a month and no follow up, we stopped back in. We were not in a rush but excited to get a ring ordered. The sales lady that we had previously worked with seemed happy to see us but had obviously lost our quote, name number and all, and was flustered and soon mad about the situation. In trying to remember - without letting on that she had forgotten about us- she came up with something very different than what we had talked about. Neither my wife nor I took her irritated manner personally but were a bit flabbergasted when she rolled her eyes at us and disappeared into the back room to complain about us to her manager. And she was loud. And offensive. My wife walked out by this point but I stayed to try to resolve the situation. After a few minutes, Doug (who I believe is the owner and seemed like a nice enough guy) came out and gave me an overpriced quote to apparently run me out of his store. Now I realize that customer service isn't what it used to be but this was a failure on so many levels - and such a different experience than we had been hoping for. I now hear their ads on the radio and can only say this: an ad may bring in a customer but bad service and the word of mouth that results from it can be devastating to a business. Might I be so bold as to suggest a drastic change in attitude - and employees for that matter.

And there's something different every time I pop in (which is pretty much every time I dine at neighboring Fieldstone Grill, which is one of my favorite spots in Portage). Superior customer service as well. La!
