Byzantine Jewelry - Santa Cruz (CA)

5 /5 Zoey Sexton: The most beautiful jewelry you WILL find. Each piece is unique, and created with full attention to detail. Such amazing jewelry. Mark is an awesome person, so truly not only are you guaranteed a one of a kind piece, you can feel his passion for the art in everything he makes. My engagement ring is beyond words, simply breathtaking..any ring I have yet to see can compare to Marks craftsmanship . I will make sure to buy all of my fine jewelry from Byzantine, I suggest for anyone looking for a one of a kind, reasonably priced, certain gift for someone special (self included) to go to Byzantine first. You will not leave disappointed with your purchase, nor the service. I am in LOVE with my fiancé.. and in LOVE with my beautiful ring. Thank you Mark

5 /5 Michele DAmico: Six stars. I brought in a broken piece of jewelry and it was transformed in to a more brilliant, stunning bracelet at a very reasonable price. I couldn’t be more pleased and impressed. The absolute best jewelry store in town

3 /5 Jeff M: I did not have a good experience attempting to kick off a custom engagement ring project with them. He wasnt receptive to my requests for a simple organic design and instead bragged about his embellished work. I guess he only does custom if its in his style, so it wasnt for me.

5 /5 Michael Hansen: Byzantine Jewelry: The Hidden Gem of Santa Cruz If youre looking for high-end jewelry Byzantine Jewelry on Pacific Ave is the place to go. The owner, who is also the master jeweler, has been here forever—and for good reason. He knows his craft inside and out, and his customer service is second to none. Unlike other places that just want to sell you the biggest, flashiest rock, he actually cares about helping you find the perfect ring and the right size stone.

5 /5 Kacie Klein: My husband and I have been looking for an upgraded engagement ring for me and I have been to countless stores this year. I will say I have particular taste and am not a huge fan of diamonds, I like a little color. Leslie is the most patient, kind, and receptive sales person I have ever worked with (particularly in the jewelry business). She pulled out multiple rings after getting a sense for my style. Once I was settled on a gorgeous aquamarine ring, Mark stepped in and helped me find a sturdier setting for every day and an even more gorgeous ring with an aquamarine center stone (it was also a lower price, no upselling here). And let me tell you Mark knows exactly what he is doing, he looked at my hand and then resized the ring perfectly (and within 20 minutes!) to a size I didn’t think I was! This is the best fitting and most comfortable ring I have ever worn. We will be coming back for my wedding band and referring all our friends and family to these wonderful people.
