My husband and I purchased both our…read moreengagement ring and wedding bands here, and we were thoroughly impressed with both the store and the staff. They have an outstanding selection of high-quality jewelry in a wide range of styles, with options to suit a variety of tastes and budgets. What really stood out to us, though, was the exceptional customer service. The staff were incredibly patient with two very indecisive customers, knowledgeable about their products, and most importantly never pushy. They always made us feel comfortable taking our time and finding exactly what we wanted. They were also wonderfully generous and accommodating. They lent me a gorgeous pair of pearl earrings to wear on my wedding day, which was such a thoughtful gesture. They always greet us warmly when we stop in and have been incredibly flexible and helpful every time we've visited. They even resized my engagement ring multiple times until we got the fit just right, and have cleaned my jewelry more times than I can count because I'm terrible at keeping my rings clean! We've had such a wonderful experience with Giovanna's, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for beautiful jewelry and genuinely outstanding service.

Every December, Giovanna partners up with the Mountain View Police Department and holds a Toys For Tots event at her store. She's absolutely wonderful with a heart of gold.

Her attention to detail, patience, and genuine care truly set her apart. We each now have two rings from Geoffrey's, and we couldn't be happier - not only with the incredible quality, but also with how thoughtfully everything was presented to us. Every visit feels special. The showroom is always spotless and beautifully displayed, and what I appreciate most is that I've never once felt pressured or rushed. Felicia creates such a comfortable, welcoming environment, which is rare and so important, especially when making meaningful purchases like these! We'll absolutely continue coming back to Felicia for all of our future jewelry. She's simply the best!

Greeted by Rafik and Carolina, I was the only patron to enter the store today! Los Altos is quaint & quiet on the weekends & even quieter on weekdays, guys! Locals gather for the beer & wine festivals, art shows, First Fridays, & other Los Altos Chamber of Commerce events that wake up the residents! The return of fine jewelry selection is always welcomed in our town! There were more stores that came and went, so finding a familiar reputable name on the same block & at the same location brings back brand recognition & excitement! Gleim the Jeweler is a family owned brand that has began on University Ave in Palo Alto in 1931, that's 8 years short of a century! Gleim had 3 locations in the early 2000s, the initial goldsmith shop in Palo Alto, Stanford Shopping Center store where Gleim has been one of the original tenants, and here in Los Altos as well. They downsized back to the roots at one time, under the leadership of Georgie Gleim, the granddaughter of the founder. Only Stanford location has been kept throughout the past couple of decades, so now we have Los Altos store back into the mix of businesses on Main Street! I welcomed Rafik and Carolina to my downtown and they smiled at me gracefully! Let's take a look inside, shall we? Precious gemstones, unique estate pieces, watches, well known brands, you'll find it all at the remodeled store next to wine bar Le Banc, how convenient! Rafik has been with Gleim for awhile and he knows the trade very well! Carolina is from Brazil with the most charming accent & she exudes love for fine jewelry and design, coupled with long time in the industry since the '80s in Rio de Janeiro. When it comes to finding that time piece, or estate piece that carries goldsmith's craftsmanship & history, you now have a new store in town! *When the lights go down in the California town People are in for the evening I jump into my car and I throw in my guitar My heartbeat in time with my breathing Driving over Kanan, singing to my soul There's people out there turning music into gold!

The…read morepeople were professional and seemed glad I was there and I could happily wait with my children in the play area. But recently two men who were working when I visited to drop off and pick up my ring were surprisingly sloppy: in manner and in wrinkled, ill-fitting clothes. Employees of luxury jewelry stores should represent the quality of products & service in their appearance (so agreed my husband when I wondered if I was being snobby). We might consider another place to have it cleaned in future (I found online that the company and their parent company, Sterling, have had lawsuits and complaints about harassment over the decades and not compensating employees as stated). Switching however would mean if the setting, which has never had damage, does sustain damage or looses a stone, we'd lose the warranty protection. In the past the care was always consistent in getting the diamonds and interior of the setting clean but I'm now being given different information regarding whether or not I should have it cleaned in 10 minutes or leave it overnight(s). This location at least is now called Jared's [by/with?] James Allen (another Sterling brand).

We appreciated the help we received from Elena and Darya who were kind and pleasant to work with. However, our interaction with Fanya was off putting and left us feeling uncomfortable. During our visit, she spoke very confidently about the history of mining diamonds in a way that did not align with well-documented historical information we are privy to. The conversation felt dismissive of a serious subject and it made it difficult for us to feel confident moving forward with such an important purchase. When choosing a jeweler for something as meaningful as an engagement ring, trust and transparency matter a lot. While we respect that others may have different experiences, this interaction ultimately led us to continue our search elsewhere. Especially after noticing many of their negative reviews revolved around the owners daughter, this was concerning to us. We wish the business the best, but wanted to share our honest experience for others who are doing the same research we were.
