I also brought in a parcel of 4 blue sapphires to be included in the ring. Staff helped me design the ring. White gold, stone placement and orientation plans were drawn up. They allowed me to partially pay in a kilo bar of .999 silver. A couple of weeks later, I went to pick the new ring up. The wife loved it. It was truly spectacular. I have been back. This time to make rings, earrings, etc. out of loose gemstones, I purchased elsewhere. Specifically, 2 solitaire diamonds, 2 sapphires, 2 garnets and a pair of amethyst earrings. Staff has always been attentive, never demeaning or overbearing. I felt like they gave me good deals without hassles. When I need jewelry made, which will be soon, I will go back.

Let me start by saying how disappointed I am with this jeweler and store. I have had a lot of…read morepieces designed over the years with master jewelers in many states we've lived and others here in Texas. I decided to give William at San Anthony's a try, after he worked so hard on trying to locate a movement for a vintage watch. I have never had such a poor experience in my life! In early April, I picked 2 different feminine ring designs for my daughter and myself (from a book in the store) for a set of carved Cabochon antique jade cuff links that were my father's and grandfather's before him. Also using my gold and diamonds. I wanted similar not the same and each a little unique to match our personalities. And the whole process a nightmare! I was originally told it would be about a month, after a month, nothing done. I needed them for going to see my military daughter and they weren't ready. Then a month later was told well they made the castings but they weren't right as the bands were too thin and needed to be redone. Come back in a week. Went back and told that jeweler wasn't in and didn't know the status. Found my envelope but some pieces were missing including the antique cuff links. I asked where they were and no one knew, I said just give me everything back and I'll go elsewhere. Since they couldn't find the jade cuff links, was asked if I could give them a chance to find them to make them. I agreed if they could be ready by x date, as we were traveling to see my daughter at a base in north Texas and would like to bring them to her. Showed up 2 days before our trip, (early August) was told by William they were sent to a different jewelry store in San Antonio to do the work because he had yet another death in the family. and that shop lost them, and couldn't find them. Then I questioned it because last time they were made but the band was too thin. He back tracked his story and babbled on again blaming anyone but himself. I told them this is unacceptable, they need to find them and when I left the store, I cried. I was so upset about the whole encounter I didn't sleep... I went back after our trip and was told they were located and would be done in a couple days. Showed up in a few days and they weren't ready. I heard so many different stories depending on who I spoke with. And 3 excuses in the 5 months for funerals, quite a few for out sick, not working today, And if I mentioned what I was told at a last visit, they would change the current story to meet that story too. Anyway, second trip to see our daughter and still no ring to give her. Explained she would be here on x date for a long weekend visit while she is in the states at the school and they have to be done. Got a call they were ready. Went to pickup and they were not ready yet. Had to wait a bit. Finally, Abby brought them out and the rings were the exact same ... a chunky, heavy design and not the split shank or feminine designs I picked. Driving home my daughter looked at me and said, "To be honest mom, it's too heavy and the jade stone is loose in the setting, the setting is rough / pokey and I won't wear it as is. So please take it to your regular master jeweler and have him fix this mess!" I handed her my ring and she looked at it and said, yes your jade is shaking back and forth, and actually looser than mine plus there are a few rough sharp spots too. So 2 chunky heavy rings on a design style I didn't approve, don't like and nothing feminine about them like I originally picked... with crappy workmanship that was done quickly to get me out of their hair and basically needs to be redone / fixed by my favorite designer / master jeweler in New Braunfels (Kent at Malleable Jewelry).

I asked back in March about a reputable jeweler that…read morecould take my wedding rings and my Grandmothers wedding ring and come up with a new design that Included both diamonds from each of the rings! 3 rings in total. Now fast forward almost 6 months and this is the review I'd like to give for WISE jewelers in Cibolo off of Main Street. Do Not and I mean Do not bring your valued , loved and sentimental jewelry to this location. I have had the worst experience and have been left with nothing but melted gold , loose diamonds and a ring that's been taken apart. I was quoted about 4 months for the owner to redesign my rings and come up with a new band plus 2 extra rings with the smaller diamonds to make the bands. I called in July when it was supposed to be ready and was told they were behind and it would be early August. I then called last week and they said they were finishing up and getting them shined they would be ready by end of week. I never heard from them. So I called yesterday and I kept getting the runaround, so I decided to go up there because who would be able to lie to your face. Well that's exactly what happened. I went in and the lady had said they weren't ready and they were still casting the mold. Which mind you last week I was told they were done. at this point I'm livid and all I want is my rings back. She said she had them in the back and it would take hours for her to get them ready. I said I really hope you haven't melted the gold down already which she had. needless to say I asked for her to get them for me now. That's when she went back and had her assistant come to the front to tell me that the rings were not even in the store. The owner then came back up as I asked for her and was told that nothing had been even started and that the rings were just melted down and not even in started. I asked why she would lie not once but numerous times? She never could give me a valid excuse. So please please do not take your business to this lady. If you can't handle a job don't accept it. I went today and thankfully had my rings but am still left with just loose stones , melted down gold and my grandmothers wedding rings which has all the smaller diamonds missing. Edit to add: it now looks as though I'm missing gold I'm so devastated. Weighed what I had verses what my appraisal was and it's not the same and literally missing an entire band of gold.

My mother is 82 and has vascular dementia. Her left hand swelled up like a balloon 3 days ago and her wedding ring was causing the finger to swell twice its size! Dementia patients are sensitive to situations more so than others. Finally, she agreed to let us cut the ring off her finger. Time is of the essence as the mind can change immediately. In less then 20 minutes, Mr. Peñaloza was at our door and the ring was off in just a few minutes with no pain, no fuss. He was calm, kind and my mother had no issues. Of course, now she's mad at me, but at least she can keep her finger!!! I will most certainly be taking the ring to him after COVID has died down for repair. What an incredible man, incredible company!! In these trying times, this was definitely an example of kindness to others! Sandy
