I was so impressed and truly moved that that within so little time Amy had my engagement ring (an heirloom) resized and on my finger-- and all without having to get a new band, something that other professionals said could not be done. Amy truly understood the sentimental value of this piece and her kindness and expediency was just wonderful.

You are a gem and I look forward to doing so much more business with you.

Thank you for your comments. Your ring is so very special and I am happy that we were able to restore it back to it's original state. Congratulations, again, on your engagement. I look forward to working with you in the future :)
Best,
Amy

I recently had the pleasure of working with Amy when buying an engagement ring for me to-be fiance. She took the time before our meeting to really get a firm understanding of what I was looking for. We met at my convenience and Amy brought the highest quality of merchandise with her, while being cognoscente of my budget. She combined an incredible halo setting with the 'perfect' diamond and my fiance could not have been happier with the ring. Not only does she love it, the compliments that both of us have received from friends and complete strangers have truly been amazing... I would and will recommend Amy to anyone looking to purchase new jewelry or repurpose something old.

Amy designed an amazing engagement ring for my fiance and I-- truly a "perfect setting." We met with her locally, at our convenience. She listened to exactly what I wanted and had already spoke to my fiance about what he wanted, his budget, etc. She gave us honest and insightful input and showed us pictures and samples of things that were in-line with our criteria. I wanted a ring that looks good on my hand, can stand up to the abuse of everyday wear and an active lifestyle, has a "nautical" look, and is original. In the end, I am thrilled with my ring. The design is perfect and the diamonds are beautiful and even more incredible then I expected! I am looking forward to working with Amy to create our wedding bands.

It was really such a pleasure working with the both of you. I'm glad we were able to create an engagement ring that suits your active lifestyle -- and sparkles as much as you do!

Thank you for taking the time to comment.

Amy knew exactly what I wanted to do with my diamond and worked really hard to make sure that I was happy with the end result. She really cares about her clients and went out of her way throughout the process. Now I have a new engagement ring that I absolutely love and enjoy!

Amy was a tremendous help in planning and implementing my custom eternity band. She hand picked the diamond and was instrumental in the design and layout of the ring. She truly loves helping others find and/or design the ring of their dreams!
