My partner and I worked with Peter and his incredible staff to restore one of my grandmother's ring. We could not be happier with the finished product! They were so collaborative, communicative, and knowledgable. They really took the time to understand our vision and used two heirloom pieces (a ring and a diamond from a necklace) to create something so beautiful. They resized, polished, and added two additional stones ahead of schedule and under budget. We will definitely be working with them in the future. Could not recommend them more highly!

Can I give more than five stars??? I went to Generales & Generales on a friend's recommendation. I am absolutely thrilled and delighted with not only the work they did but the entire experience. There is no one I would trust more with my treasures.
I worked with Yihvoon - who was great! Knowledgeable, professional, warm, and friendly. She gave me good, clear explanations, listened carefully to my questions (and my detailed stories! She is very patient!) It was just a great experience.
I took in a ring that my father had brought with him when he came to the US in 1938. He'd had to hide the ring - cut off the band and sew the parts into the seam of a coat. For some reason, it had never been repaired. I felt that after 84 years, it was long past time for the ring to be restored and worn again.
I was nearly in tears as I told the ring's story to Yihvoon. I hadn't realized how emotional this was going to be. And she was great - very understanding.
Yihvoon texted me a few days later - the ring was cleaned, and I could come and look at it - decide what we wanted to do about the band.
The ring was spectacular! I had no idea is was as beautiful as it is! Years of oxidation was hiding was what underneath. What's more - the jeweler was able to reattach the original band (we'd thought he might have to make an entirely new one since the original was so delicate.) And yesterday - I picked up the finished ring - it is beautifully restored and is starting on its new journey!
Thank you, Yivhoon, and Generales & Generales! You've helped me restore a beautiful piece of jewelry - as well as a part of my family history. I'll be back very soon with more treasures!

My boss recommended them when I broke my favorite ring. It’s rather delicate and was afraid it couldn’t be fixed but I got it back today good a new!! Yihvoon was wonderful to work with, asking questions about the piece and keeping me up to date on the progress. I asked about doing a custom piece of a necklace I lost and they do that so I’ll definitely be back!

Had our ring appraised here and it was wonderful. Kind thoughtful attention to detail and really felt as though we were being taken care of by Peter and his team. Can’t wait to head back for any and EVERY one of my needs in the near future. If you’re looking for a jeweler and want reputable, honest & fair prices. Look. No. Further.

I brought in a wedding band and engagement ring to sell. They offered a great price, and had a great selection in their store. My desire to write this review really came from how friendly and genuine they were. It truly felt like they were happy to be there, happy to chat, and happy to answer any questions.

The service here is amazing! Yihvoon helped us with a rushed ring re-sizing and couldn’t have been more knowledgeable, helpful and kind. Don’t hesitate to stop by and check out their amazing beautiful selection. I know I will be back soon.

I brought in a wedding ring for cleaning, and they revealed to me that some of the quality of the metal had not been as advertised, shall we say. As such, they were able to reconstruct the ring completely and make it sparkle like new. Very satisfied with the ten year-old stones now looking completely fresh. A friend recommended G&G and they were exactly what I needed.

My husband bought my engagement ring from here. He got to pick out the diamond and design the setting. We decided to also get our wedding bands designed here as well. Peter is great to work with. We are so happy with our rings they are better than we could image. Peter was great with keeping us updated about the status and any concerns we have. We have also purchased gift here for family members. It is just a great store. Friendly staff and quality items. We will be continuing to go to this store for special occasions.

My sister needed a gold necklace extended and a gold chain repaired, so I tagged along for a visit to this jewelry store for the first time. I was blown away by the beautiful, diverse selection they had. Peter and Sylvia were the absolute sweetest. Peter quickly tended to the necklace and chain while Sylvia helped my sister and I pick out bracelets because it was clear that we couldn't leave empty-handed. I ended up snagging a bracelet Sylvia made (that she was excited about herself but selflessly gave me because it fit better than the one in the showcase). Peep the picture to see my gorgeous, dainty, new bracelet that I'll be adding to my gold stack! I'm so happy with the bracelet and loved the wholesome energy of the owners and staff; I'll be back here for all the fine jewelry I want for myself and for gifts!

I feel so fortunate to have this jewelry store as a local resource. I've had them design a custom pendant, polish and resize vintage pieces and refurbish an older watch. Peter and his staff are a pleasure to work with.

Thank you Peter @generalesjewelers for saving the day!I needed a stone set within a concise window. Peter reached out to a supplier and got it and set my ring in less than 24 hours. A true hidden gem!

The folks here took a cuff link I had, that I wanted made into a pendant. It couldn’t have come out better! Excellent job, and service.
