I stumbled upon Uptown Diamond's instagram a few years ago and had been falling in love with the…read moredesigns since! My (now) husband and I started discussing rings and we went to literally every big name and small name store possible to find THE ring. All of the rings we saw were absolutely beautiful and perfect...just not the right one for me. I called Uptown Diamond in tears begging for an appointment. I was getting SO overwhelmed with sales people and just needed someone to LISTEN to what I wanted. Rick got us in IMMEDIATELY. Within minutes, Rick had my dream ring drawn up. Didn't question anything. He listened. He was patient. I told him things I thought I wanted and he talked me off of ledges I am so happy I listened to. Multiple times. Shockingly, Rick is way more fashion forward than I could ever be. When I was stern about what I wanted, he would bite his tongue. Then I'd go home and research his suggestions and found that I loved his way MUCH more. He can be as involved or as little involved as you'd like - and I loved that. I needed help. There is something very very special about crafting your very own design and watching it come to life. There is not another ring out there like mine. It's custom. Don't let the word "custom" make you think you can't afford it. I assure you, it could be a fraction of what these other big name brands are telling you. Set up an appointment, talk about your budget, show Rick what you want, and when you propose - let your girlfriend/fiance/fiancee/whomever know you did it all custom and get the brownie points you deserve. I'd knock Rick down a point - or three - because he's not an Alabama fan but at least he's a Longhorn fan ;)

A newscaster reached out to Kevin and he actually answered, but he said that my husband stayed in their office while they cleaned it and picked it up to "sell for extra money". Shame on Kevin for this -- we had such a great experience with Rick and for Kevin to be doing this now? It is an absolute disgrace. I am glad we have copies of all communications and responses from Kevin!!! -- I am so sad to be leaving a poor review, but I do not know what else to do. My husband dropped off my engagement ring and wedding bands off to be cleaned, and we have not been able to pick it up. We dropped it off in May and when he went back to get it, no one was at the office. That is when we started calling and emailing for updates. The mobile number for Kevin goes straight to voicemail, and the mailbox is full. The office number rings and is forwarded to a mobile number, and the mailbox for that number is also full. We have sent Facebook messages to no avail. I'm freaking out. I want my ring back and I don't know how to get into contact with anyone - I don't know how else to get someone's attention.

I don't often write reviews, after engagement ring shopping and visiting many Jewelers, I chose…read moreNazar's. Working with Alec, Jesus, and Nareg was amazing. Alec, who is leading much of the jewelry design and the whole team take any feedback and are constantly improving to be the best. The pre-covid reviews are not at all like what I experienced in 2026. I don't know what it was like then, but this Jeweler has clearly listened and improved it's customer service, has the best technology and 3-D printers and is now I believe the best of anyone that will be there for you in the long haul. If you meet Alec and the team, you will know what I mean, extremely humble and goes above and beyond for their customers. Also after getting engaged, 5 months later, I had our wedding band custom designed as well, and we ordered my wedding ring. Hands down the best! 1) Designed and crafted in-house. Their rings and settings on display are not just fake display rings, but most were designed and made in-house. Alec is their main designer and expertly worked with me, looked at my drawings and models to help custom make a ring for me. I wanted to design a ring that looked similar to a tulip setting but not pointy or cluttered. I wanted the north, south, east, west petals to come up just below the girdle of the diamond while flaring out slightly to look like a flower from above. And then have one prong at each corner of the diamond that would act as the structure to hold the diamond and look like the anther or seeds of the flower. It needed to look elegant, yet approachable, dainty and timeless. Alec brought this vision and drawings to life. They have sophisticated 3-D printers that can make wax molds which gold can be poured into to make custom jewelry. 2) They are a family-owned business. 3) Unmatched Craftsmanship and the most competitive price. If you saw the ring in person you would see what I mean by unmatched. Every part of the ring, the hidden areas underneath, everything is flawless and a work of art. My degree is in Landscape Architecture, so I can be very exacting, and Nazar's was so patient. We had multiple changes and iterations of wax molds until it was perfect to be cast in gold. I was never rushed or pushed aside. I felt like family. 4) Pick out your own diamond. I'm a skeptical person, I found a GIA certified, natural, untreated, fancy intense yellow diamond at Nazar's in their display, and for the next 3 weeks I tried to find something better. I looked at 50+ different fancy and fancy intense yellow diamonds from Diamonds Direct, Zadok, Deutsch, and Dubin's, all over. No one could show me a stone more beautiful than the ones at Nazar's. Nazar's price was even 10% less than Diamond's Direct, had higher stats on the GIA. Many other Jewelers had to order in diamonds from 3rd parties and pay a middleman and charge more, Nazar's has many GIA certified natural diamonds in stock that were expertly picked for their beauty (some people are not good at picking diamonds, Nazar's is) and can therefore offer a more competitive price on a higher quality diamond. 5) They are in it for you. A month later I happened to find 1 natural diamond that I liked more than Nazar's diamond (only 1!). I felt bad bc I wanted to give Nazar's the business. They let me compare the diamond I found to their diamond and encouraged me to pick the one I liked more even though they wouldn't make as much money. Nazar's still valued my business and we designed a ring around the diamond I sourced. (Nazar's diamond was priced better per carat than the one I found, but the one I found had a yellow color unlike anything I have ever seen and in a rare modified brilliant hybrid elongated cushion cut that looked more like an oval than a cushion. The type of natural diamond that if you looked for 10 years you may never find one like it). 6) Lifelong customers, not a quick sale. Nazar's was one of the only stores that I felt they were not about making a quick buck but about making a lifelong customer. Other stores I felt rushed, at Nazar's I never felt pressured. Even after the sale, they complimentarily resized the ring a half size smaller for my fiancée and polished it up like a show piece. 7) Adaptable, above and beyond. I had a dilemma. I could tell my girlfriend really wanted me to propose to her at the Chicago Marathon. That week I approved the final design, and Nazar and their amazing craftsman worked overtime to finish the ring and have it overnight shipped from Houston to Chicago on a Friday night. It arrived Saturday morning in time to propose on Sunday and surprise her! Nareq is the shipping master. Alec and his team made it happen! Thank you Nazar's and God bless you all and your wonderful team!

We started engagement ring shopping at the Galleria with all your typical jewelry stores and were…read morenot impressed with any of the choices. Our last stop was Tiffany, where the sales must've thought we're too poor to afford it (LOL we are :P) and gave us a tip: Dickinson by Design. I never thought I would be able to go the custom jewelry route because it sounds expensive, but honestly it was the fairest price for the quality. And it made the ring experience fun! Shopping for a diamond was really daunting and stressful because of all the different specs, so I really appreciated how the DBD team took that on and even educated us along the way. We gave them our budget for the diamond and they came back with 3 choices for us to review and choose from. I was able to try on all 3 diamonds before deciding. From there we discussed band designs which were then created into 3D molds before we settled on the final product. The craft of the DBD team really shined (pun intended) when I got the ring. They really helped the diamond present itself in the best way. Everyone always comments how sparkly my ring is and the sparkle has been the same since Day 1. Only wish they offered more payment options (like cashier's check or something) since right now the only option is to wire money. Will definitely use them again for other custom jewelry needs.

I had lost it a while back and wanted a replica of that ring, or at least something close. I got a consultation, gave our budget, they found the diamond, sapphires and ring within that budget! It was great. It came maybe $140 over for fees and appraisal. They only take wire or cashiers only, so please be mindful of that! One thing I learned from this experience is that if your jeweler does teach you about the basics of buying a diamond, then they're probably trying to take you on ride. I am definitely coming back here! What a great experience!

I will say though that it is completely different from the experience I had. I came in on a Wednesday morning for my friend's birthday. We didn't schedule a set appointment, but they did know we planned on coming in. We worked directly with Lauren and only Lauren the entire time. I felt like she was genuinely consulting with us about what would look best and what we should probably stay away from. I appreciate this so much with a business like this. It instills a level of trust that doesn't make you feel like they're just trying to make a sale. Lauren ensured we both understood the healing process and everything that was associated with each piercing we were considering so we could make the best decision for ourselves. It was so refreshing for me since I've had awful piercing experiences in the past. I really felt taken care of. I felt like she was extremely safe and everything was properly sterilized. I decided to do my conch and third holes in both lobes. To my surprise, it didn't even hurt! The only reason I'm not giving the full five stars is due to pricing. I do feel like this business is expensive. I didn't have any pricing information before beginning the process. I do know part of it is my fault for not asking if specific earrings had a different price point, but I also feel it should be a little more transparent up front! I did just get them this week, so I can't attest to the healing process yet. It did hurt to see one earring cost me $130. If they heal well then I am extremely happy to have had such a good experience.
