Kailin Jones Got both of my daughters ears pierced here. The manager did a great job. Very knowledgeable. Neither of their ears got infected. Definitely recommend.

Cameron Reynolds My and my fiancée came in to get our wedding bands for each other and to resize my fiancées engagement ring. We had a fantastic experience. The staff was extremely helpful and dedicated. Our contact, Alesha aided us in our decisions, lowering prices, and checking in with us throughout the process; She was wonderful. For my wedding band, I brought in another ring to be melted down and repoured into another design. The designer did a fantastic job and K Hollis went to great lengths to lower the price estimate and to get the final product that I desired. Lastly, they did fantastic with the resizing and were even able to keep a very detailed engraving despite it being where they would normally cut the ring. Overall, we had a great experience and couldnt recommend them more.

Zachary Wnuk J Kamin was an extraordinary help in finding the perfect ring. He not only helped find the perfect diamond and assisted in designing a custom engagement ring, but also assisted with a deep knowledge of ring design to ensure that I had the best ring possible. J Kamin helped me design the ring of our dreams and did it at an amazing price. I will be returning for all future jewelry needs.

Peggy Maria Simpson provided a great experience to me in July, 2025. She greeted me with excitement and when I explained what I was looking for, she immediately pointed me in the right direction. The first piece she showed me was the one I ended up purchasing for a bridal gift. She showed me exactly what I was looking for and did not pressure me in any way. She was kind and professional. I dont shop for much jewelry these days, but definitely will return to her when I do! Thank you Maria, the piece ended up being perfect!

Katie I cannot recommend Mia enough! My fiance used her to design my engagement ring and the final product was absolutely stunning. I love my ring, its beautiful and perfect. Mia is incredibly knowledgeable and was able to guide us through the process with ease. She was patient and took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, and the result was a ring that exceeded all of our expectations. Additionally, Mia was always prompt and professional with all of our communications. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and trustworthy jeweler.

Emma Wohler This review is long overdue… I took my diamond in to have it set into a simple white gold setting. Bill was so helpful and kind. He took his time with me and all my crazy questions. I really like vintage jewelry and he told me to go to his lancing shop and was able to go through all his vintage setting. And boy did he have the vintage settings. I did end up going with a more modern simple settings. But Bill was so patient while I shorted through his vintage settings. I can’t say enough about this store and its workers. I believe the woman also work a little bits name was Jan, and again awesome lady and so nice. I would highly recommend doing business with Bill you won’t be disappointed. Thank you to Bill and his whole staff !!!!

MATTHEW PEREZ Amazing people and very friendly. I went In for a diamond pair of earrings and they helped me find the perfect pair for my budget and she loved them. I highly Recommend and I will Be back !

C Christine “Christy90” My ring is an antique Circa 1886. I purchased it in the 70s and have worn it daily for 50 years. The band had worn thin and cracked from wear. I am so pleased with how this ring was restored... with a slightly wider band and prongs around the sapphires and diamonds to secure them in place. Its more beautiful than when I originally purchased it. Mark Peters skillful jewelers has done an excellent and professional job restoring this ring to the beauty it deserves. Thank you so much.
