I didn't end up buying anything, due to my limited budget, but Sam was a joy to spend time with! I had a blast geeking out over the beautiful antiques he showed me. I still can't get the Tsavorite navette ring or perfect earrings for my necklace out of my mind! Will definitely be back next time I'm in town.

OC Diamond Estate Jewelry is a hidden gem of Old Town Orange- a treasure trove with the charm and warmth of our town. If you're looking for an antique jewelry experience filled with passion and history, this is the shop for you! Samy's love for his collection is contagious. His shop offers a broad selection that spans geography and time, and a salesman who truly loves the historical value of his pieces. Samy's kindness and excitement matches, if not exceeds, the preciousness of his wide array of gems and stones. Today, during a casual window-shopping excursion through Old Town, my mother, who is visiting from out of state, and I popped into Samy's shop to browse while my husband and daughter finished their smoothies outside. What was meant to be a 5 minute walk-through, turned into nearly an hour with Samy, who happily engaged our every interest in many pieces and even went to the back to pull specific items inspired by our individual tastes. As someone who has always been fairly intimidated by jewelry stores, I was so appreciative of Samy's willingness and excitement to share his collection with us without ever making us feel pressured to make a purchase. When my husband and five-year-old daughter joined us, not only did Samy welcome them graciously, we ended up leaving with a parting gift- a small, antique children's necklace and lollipop for my daughter. This shop, and Samy's hospitality, was another wonderful reminder of why we love Orange so much- the love for history and the prominence of community. Such a great shop, we will be back soon!

Bought an engagement ring here. Samy has a wide selection to choose from, including much that is not out on display. He spent a lot of time with us trying out a bunch of various rings until we found the one we wanted. He is very patient and helpful and didn't push us while we were browsing. Dealing was fair and provided an appraisal upon purchase.

I rarely go to jewelers but this was my first formal time at any jewelry store. Samywas very welcoming and understanding to what I wanted! He was super friendly and patient to my needs. I recommend coming here to support a family business! Definitely coming back to look at more pieces! He also does custom designs!!

Samy was absolutely wonderful. He took the time to help us find exactly what we wanted and encouraged us to try things on. I didn't realize I even liked certain designs until Samy took the time to show them to us. Would definitely recommend!

I very much regret suggesting a grieving family member get a second opinion on the silver she needed to sell for her father's estate, and that she took it to OC Diamond Estate Jewelry. We had been to another local business the day before and gotten an offer of about $925. Unfortunately, I could not go with her for this appointment. She had trouble finding parking and was otherwise overwhelmed with the funeral arrangements and starting to settle the estate, so she ended up accepting $500 just to get it over with. She has felt terrible about the experience since then.

Sammy bought a bracelet from us and spent a lot of time with us talking about the process on selling! He was very personable and has been in business for many years. Definitely worth the stop for buying and selling

GO HERE! We went to every antique shop in the entire orange circle and could not find a beautiful REAL silver locket, until we came here! Sam is honest, reasonable with price, and is passionate about his craft! He cleaned the necklace as well! So personable! He has so many unique antiquities from being in this business for decades! We were there for 45 minutes and he spent quality time with us as well as other customers. We will be back!!

Sam was amazing in helping us decide on an engagement ring! He is very knowledgeable and jewelry has been in his family for many generations. This is a one stop shop for any of your jewelry needs! He also has rare and antique pieces you won't find just anywhere. Thank you OC Diamond!
