The shank on a ring my grandmother gave me had worn paper thin. Mr. Cramer replaced it, making the ring look brand new. He does beautiful work at very reasonable prices.

My 5 star recommendation for G.C. Cramer Jewelry is based on over 30 years of having received the highest level of customer service, expertise in jewelry repairs, trustworthy jewelry advice, professionalism, depth of knowledge, reliability, almost prescient judgement, fairness, and Gary's being a just plain down to earth "nice man". Not only has Gary provided excellent service to me, but he's helped numerous family members and friends whom I've recommended to him over the years. We all respect and appreciate him. In fact, I purchased some beautiful pieces of jewelry from him today as an anniversary gift to my wife, one of which he designed and crafted personally! I trust Gary implicitly. Years ago we sent my mother's diamond ring to Gary from out of state. He found it to have an inclusion near a face. He told Mom that if she would want him to, he could send it to one of his master diamond cutters in NYC who might be able to grind out the inclusion. It would lose a tad of weight, but gain way more in value by becoming nearly flawless. Mom chose to do that and her stone increased in value by several thousands of dollars! She was so appreciative of Gary's knowledge, experience and forethought. GC Cramer as a jewelry establishment and Gary in particular are the exception in all you look for in a jeweler, the one in whom you place your trust. I recommend them highly and without reservation.

I contacted Gary to see about finding some colored diamonds for an engagement ring. He was more than accommodating and was able to order in three different radiant cut diamonds in three different colors. One stone was turquoise and the two others were canary diamonds. In the end, I chose one of the canary diamonds in a radiant cut and it ended up making the most beautiful engagement ring for my fiancé. I could not have been happier. We were also able to purchase our wedding bands at the same location. When my wife's diamond wedding band was placed next to her engagement ring the canary diamond color really popped next to the white diamonds. We have recommended Gary to many of our friends! Update Soon after getting married I was speaking with my insurance company and realized that I would need an appraisal of my wife's wedding rings. I contacted Gary to inquire about the process. He explained to me that the insurance appraisal would entail cleaning, measuring and grading all of the aspects of the diamonds as well as photographing and describing all of the characteristics of the rings. All of the components would have to be checked for security and damage. I asked Gary how long this process would take and he explained that the actual appraisal may take less than an hour and when he was finished with the measurements my pieces could be picked up. Preparing the official documents could take another week or two because the values of the stones and the metals have to be checked for current market values as these prices change on a daily basis. I dropped off the rings and within a few weeks I had all of the information I needed to purchase the appropriate policy through my insurance. I highly recommend G. C. Cramer Jeweler's if you are looking for a registered jeweler with the training and professionalism to provide an appraisal.

Perhaps I called when he was having a bad day but the gentleman was so fussy and had such a bad attitude on the phone that I decided I would be better going someplace else. I called to inquire if I could come in to have a ring appraised. Seemed like a legit question. I hope whatever is bothering him quickly improves!

Gary makes some really nice unique jewelry. He's repaired broken jewelry for us in the past as well as matched a replacement stone on a ring that one of the 5 was missing. He's very knowledgeable and helpful.

My husband went to this jeweler for an engagement ring about a year back. He had a very specific ring in mind but could not find it anywhere. GC Cramer Jewelers not only sketched a picture of what my husband wanted for me, they also walked him through the entire process of building this ring step by step with the exact expectations outlined. We have never been to a place that has been able to do hand made custom jewelry of such high quality. Gary truly is an artist and a craftsman. We were so impressed that we decided to have our wedding bands made here as well. We truly are so grateful for finding such a rare jeweler that is capable of producing this amazing work.

I had been looking for a special engagement ring for my fiancee and went into G.C. Cramer's Jewelers at the recommendation of a friend while visiting Maine. I am used to the typical chain store experience and was pleasantly surprised by being able to interact directly with the jeweler. Gary was very informative as I had no idea what to look for in a diamond. He asked me about my fiancee's tastes to get a better idea of what she might like. He then showed me some selections and taught me how to compare the clarity, cut and color of each stone using a microscope. He had a beautiful 1930s art deco piece that my now wife absolutely adores. I was impressed with my first experience there. When we got married, we also had him make our wedding bands for us which go beautifully with the era of the engagement ring. He worked with us remotely even though we live on the west coast.

Gary is difficult to deal with. It's either his way or no way. Doesn't let you have his jewelry independently appraised....hmmmm wonder why.
