Atelier Edward Avedis Fine Jewelry - Santa Monica (CA)

5 /5 Colin Jenkins: Outstanding experience from start to finish. My wife had a vision for her engagement ring so I took it to Avo who transformed it into something better than either of us imagined. He made some smart adjustments to the design to fit flush against the beautiful wedding band I eventually went back to him for as well as to craft my own ring. We couldnt be happier with his work and always recommend him to friends and family. Craftsmanship is exceptional and hes a fantastic person to work with every time.

5 /5 Christopher Briones: Me and my now fiance highly recommend going to Avo to get your engagement ring. Even if you think youre committed to a ready-made ring at a store, I promise you he will do better while maintaining a competitive rate. We went in-person to several of the big name box stores like Blue Nile and Brilliant Earth, and we scoured hundreds of ring designs across dozens of other retail websites and jewelry stores. None of them came close to providing the intricacy, specificity to taste, and sheer quality when held in-hand compared to Avos creation. We had a specific design in mind (princess cut, eagle claws, a hidden halo with petals, pave band) which he quickly designed within a few days. He was very responsive to modifications we wanted to see - we feel like he really listened to even the smallest remarks. He also was able to source our dream diamond for less than everywhere else we looked. The turn-around time from our first meeting until the final customized product was in-hand was just under a month. Needless to say, we will be going back to him for our custom wedding bands soon enough.

5 /5 Jack Medall: This review is long overdue, but I would give Avo ten stars if I could. He is the best and makes you feel like family throughout the whole process. He worked with me to create my wife’s engagement ring and our wedding bands and was an absolute joy to work with! He came up with multiple designs for us both and executed flawlessly! Not to mention he was extremely helpful (and patient) with me as I was working to pick out my wife’s engagement ring! Definitely worth the drive from the east side to go and visit! We will be back for other jewelry in the future and have recommended him to all of our friends. Thanks again, Avo!

5 /5 Leslie Goodman: Avo is the best jeweler and nicest man you will ever meet! I’m sure he learned it all from his talented father and their decades of experience. Everything they do is bespoke and better than you can imagine. Everything he has made me has brought me to tears! Whether you pick a piece from his shop or have him create something just for you, you will not be disappointed!

5 /5 Serena Bonifazi: Avo is the king of jewelry. His handmade pieces are truly one-of-a-kind and state-of-the-art. No exaggeration here, the pictures speak for themselves. He is the most careful, creative, and always goes above and beyond for his clients. The only jeweler I will ever use in the rest of this lifetime.
