Achikian is a true small town jewelry store which is rare to find these days. Ken is a skilled goldsmith who cares about his customers and pieces. They have a nice selection of new and vintage jewelry. Prices are reasonable as well. I always come here for repairs and resizing. I highly recommend!

Ken is an extremely skilled jeweler and I would highly recommend his services for any custom pieces. He created a beautiful wedding band that paired nicely with my engagement ring.

I have been buying jewelry from Ken and Maral for over 20 years. Ken has created beautiful pieces for me many times, as well as having an amazing collection of unique jewelry.
Ken Achikian, master goldsmith, began his apprenticeship with a master artist and goldsmith when he was 14 years old. When war broke out, he immigrated to California where he worked as a jeweler for four years before moving to Washington, D.C. to accept a goldsmith position. In 1990 he and his wife, Maral, established Achikian Goldsmiths, Inc. in Vienna, Virginia. Together, they have devoted the past 28 years to providing their customers with the finest jewelry and service.
