“This is an excellent local jewelry store conveniently located one block from the Cleveland Park metro station. I recently needed some custom jewelry pieces cleaned and repaired and wanted professional feedback. I was quoted a very reasonable price with a quick turnaround. Overall, it was a great customer experience, and I will be a return customer.”

“I got two watches from a Bolivian street market in 2020, so they aren’t really expensive but they are special to me because I bought them on an international trip. Anyway, I took these watches in Secrète fine jewelry in DuPont circle because the batteries were out and the links needed adjusting to my wrist. I was greeted warmly and my issues were addressed timely by Ginevra. I thought I needed links removed, but actually my watch has a band that allows it to be adjusted without removing links. She showed me how to do that free of charge. She asked if I was a “collector” and Im like no but I am interested in starting a collection. Ginerva gives me the run down of Hamilton Watches and I think I have a new favorite brand. They are affordable but expensive enough to feel like a big gift to yourself. I have myself a new jeweler. Five stars for Secrète fine jewelry.”
“Had a great experience using SHELTER! Used them to custom make a custom engagement ring and it came out beautiful! Coming in knowing about nothing on engagement rings, Magnolia walked me through all the steps helped me pick out styles and options I liked. They are very knowledgeable about stones and metals to use and what looks good. Could not be happier with the outcome. I felt the price was very reasonable as well. Would highly recommend!”

“I can't say enough about the phenomenal experience I had at Tiny Jewel Box! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by Devon, a sales consultant who went above and beyond to make my watch buying experience truly exceptional.I was specifically interested in a Santos-Dumont watch, and Devon's knowledge and expertise on the timepiece were incredibly impressive. He patiently explained the different models and their functionalities, ensuring I understood all the details before making a decision.Devon wasn't just about making a sale; he genuinely cared about finding the perfect watch for me. His attentiveness, coupled with his in-depth product knowledge, made me feel incredibly comfortable and confident throughout the entire process.While browsing the exquisite selection of watches, I also expressed interest in trying on a Rolex GMT Master II. I wandered over to Rolex section of the store and met with Cristina, Assistant Sales Director, Rolex & Patek Philippe timepieces. Cristina's knowledge of the GMT Master II was just as impressive as Devon's with the Santos-Dumont. She expertly explained the features of the watch and made sure I had an extremely hospitable experience.Devon and Cristina's teamwork made my visit to Tiny Jewel Box truly outstanding. Their combined expertise and genuine care for customer satisfaction were unparalleled. Finally, after much deliberation (thanks to Devon's excellent guidance!), I found the Santos-Dumont that was absolutely perfect for me. Devon made the purchasing process smooth and efficient, and I walked out with a huge smile on my face and excited to pickup my Santos-Dumont in a few weeks.Thank you, Devon and Cristina, for making my watch buying experience unforgettable! If you're looking for exceptional service and a knowledgeable staff, Tiny Jewel Box is the place to go. Ask for Devon and Cristina - you won't be disappointed!”
“Love, Love, Love!! This DC location allows you to pick up to 3 loose diamonds you are comparing online, and view them in store via an appointment with their gemologist. I highly recommend this service as I was surprised how diamonds look very different online versus in person. Just take care with what you order because you are going to fall in absolute love with the biggest and the best and the most expensive guaranteed!! They also have bands you can try on in their design center. My channel band was not available in store and they would not bring it into the store so luckily it's exactly what I wanted. My understanding is you have 30 days to return or exchange if you want something different.”
“No matter the business, it feels rare to find an establishment that excels in both quality and customer service. iGorman exceeds expectations on both counts! I’ve been there several times and always feel welcome and heard. Even when issues arise, the Bonnie and the rest of the Gorman family are quick to make things right. I will definitely be going back for any future jewelry needs.”
“Where do I begin? Oh I know—with pictures of the final product. Believe it or not (I can hardly believe it, and without the photo evidence my friends and family certainly wouldn't) this is a ring I made, with Dan—and without any prior jewelry making experience.
I worked with Dan to make my engagement ring, because they simply do not make a ring like I had wanted, they don't even cut jade the way I needed. The only option was to do it from scratch. I wasn't even sure that was an option! And I was far less sure, even outright skeptical, I could do it myself—but that was all before I met Dan.
As a craftsman he is not just skilled, but meticulous, and determined to make sure every product he works on meets his high standard of excellence. As a teacher he is patient, knowledgeable, and eager to share and show what he knows—which is a lot. As an artist making his own jewelry, you can see a signature style, and a refusal to compromise on quality, in every piece he make. As a collaborator helping you make jewelry, he knows how to steer toward your vision so you leave with a piece that feels entirely your own. And to top it all off, he is a real man of his word--exactly the kind of person you want to put your trust in when dealing with precious metals, stones, and memories. In short, they don't 'em like Dan anymore--that goes for his character, and his jewelry.
If you want to make serious jewelry—something to show off for the rest of your life…
If you want to learn this craft the way the professionals do it…
If you are looking for a truly unique experience, some truly unique jewelry, or just need work done on some treasured piece you already own…
…This is the place to be. Go see Dan and his team at JewelryClass DC!”

933 F St NW, Washington“Mia Gemma has both beautiful jewelry and amazing customer service. With less than a week until our wedding, I still hadn't found earrings/gifts for my bridesmaids. I contacted Mia Gemma and Irene helped me find a beautiful and unique pair of earrings that was just right for their dresses, their taste, and the aesthetic of the wedding. Everyone loved them. Irene was so understanding of my last minute time frame and rushed the order. She arranged for me to pick them up at the nearby home of a Mia Gemma colleague (Lynn) who wrapped them beautifully and even gave me a card and small gift to celebrate our wedding. The earrings were just lovely and Irene and Lynn were so kind and helpful. This was my first time working with Mia Gemma and definitely not my last. Thank you so much!”
“I cannot give enough praise for Afram! I had a custom ring designed for my engagement and the end-to-end process was fantastic. Miriam was incredibly responsive, and she took all of my design requests into consideration. She was incredibly considerate of the specificity we were looking for, and worked with me to make sure the ring was exactly what my partner wanted! This was such a stressful time, and the amount of care, kindness, and dedication that went into making me feel like a valued customer was amazing. In store, Eva and Sam were a pleasure to work with. Eva was wonderful to showcase all of the jewelry, from bands to stones she was so knowledgeable and considerate. I also brought watches to Sam for cleaning and battery changes, which were done to perfection. We will be coming back again and again!”
“I had such a great time shopping at Kendra Scott in Georgetown. I picked up this beautiful necklace and a nice perfume; I couldn't be happier with my purchases. The jewelry just really wows, and the fragrance is perfect.
What really made this experience special is that this staff was so friendly. They were attentive and very helpful and did everything to ensure that I got exactly what I was looking for. The inside of this store is so nicely designed; that really makes shopping here a real joy. From your list of to-dos, whether it's finding a gift or simply something nice for yourself, Kendra Scott in Georgetown shall definitely be there.”
“Who knew this process was so stressful ??. That is until I got connected to Boone & Sons...From the first call, Pete Boone and the team were warm, easy to work with, and made the process simple. The finished product was beyond expectations and done at a competitive price point. I will ONLY go to Boone & Sons for my custom jewelry needs from now on.”
“This was my second time visiting The Phoenix. Very cute shop with a unique inventory. I was able to find a cute gift for my brother. I do agree with other reviews, the employees watch you as a hawk, but I just ignore them. The cashier was very nice and even offered to pack the gift, free of charge! I will the wrapping paper would have been Christmas colors instead of a bright yellow. Most items are on the expensive side. Still, I'll be returning... probably for Mother's Day.”
“Very pleased with the instant service I received on a watch battery replacement today! Really appreciate the stellar reception and reasonable cost. Thank you for your friendliness and courtesy too!”
“Such an awesome cute little boutique in the heart of DuPont Circle DC. All kinds of beautiful Mediterranean knick knacks, dresses, craft jewelry and such.The owner and employees are very kind and friendly. Reasonable prices on their merchandise and a little bit of something for everyone.”
“I love this store, both the Shirlington and Wharf locations! They have a variety of unique gift ideas - but my favorite is their selection of vintage jewelry 5 stars all the way!”
“This store is the BEST. Amazing range and gorgeous and unique things. A must stop in Bend. But recently I wanted to purchase a ring I had coveted from a few I had for months. Their sales associate sent me videos of my options and other suggestions. Bought the ring, shipping included and sent out two days later. Support local, they are one of a kind!”
“The most incredible jewelry, impeccable make and only the best quality... I.m fortunate enough to have several of their stunning pieces, and The Shah's and team there are aways open to collaboration and re-inventing old pieces. Just the best!”
“Excellent service as always. I am experienced with jewelry and I’ve been going for years. They have a variety of beautiful high quality pieces and Marie is so courteous and helpful, full of knowledge and kindness. Thank you very much for everything.”

1625 Wisconsin Ave NW, Washington“An absolutely wonderful store. The owners have been in business for 30 years and they are lovely people. I brought my friend here who was shopping for an outfit for my wedding. She's never been to an Indian wedding before the the shops owners were so helpful and amazing. They even fixed the blouse in store so she could take it home same day. They have a great selection of items with beautiful color and design at a reasonable price. Highly recommend you visit.”
“A week later and I’m still on a high from such a wonderful experience at Studs in Georgetown. I got one lobe piercing and one forward piercing from Tamara — she was amazing! From start to finish I felt cared for, educated, and happy to be there. I don’t live in town and made a special trip to Studs because I had heard of their good reputation from other friends, and this location did not disappoint! Thank you for a lovely time!”
“It was an absolutely pleasure dealing with Janette Davila. She was so caring in understanding what I wanted and was very knowledgeable and friendly. She found me exactly what I was wanting plus she was a pure treasure in helping find a beautiful Mother’s Day gift for my wife. Janette is definitely an asset to Mercia Diamonds, Thank you once again.”
