Excellent experience with a ring appraisal and cleaning/small repair. Service was prompt, informative and professional across the board. I would absolutely refer Paragon to everyone and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Where do I even begin? My entire experience working with Meaghan was absolutely wonderful! She responded promptly and was extremely easy to coordinate scheduling with. I came to her needing a new band attached to my wedding set, and the work was completed and ready for pickup in just a few days. I will be returning to her for all my future jewelry needs. The reason for that isn’t just because she is so easy to work with, or because she is very skilled at her profession. Honestly, it’s because she really takes the time to just sit and talk. She makes you instantly feel like an old friend. We spent most of our time together getting to know each and discussing the best places in town to eat (pizza specifically). She really makes you feel like it’s more than just a business transaction and you are more than just another customer. Highly recommend!

Meaghan did an appraisal on my wife's wedding ring in August. She was very thorough, friendly and very knowledgeable about her field of work. Her appraisal was 11 pages long, talk about in depth! Would highly recommend.

Such an interesting business. Meaghan walked me thru the process. I’m sure I have more of my jewelry appraised. I recommend her highly. I appreciate my jewelry even more now that I know how it was designed as well.

Can’t recommend Meaghan Laprath and Paragon Gemological Services highly enough! My fiancé and I recently had my engagement ring appraised for insurance purposes. She was extremely informative and professional. In one appointment learned about ring care and repair, best insurance practices, and design ideas for wedding bands. The hand engraved work was absolutely stunning. We will definitely be coming back to Paragon Gemological for all our repair, design, and appraisal needs.

Meaghan was a great help with finding my husband's ring. He wasn't sure what he wanted but she talked him through all of his options and he was and still is incredibly happy with the way his ring fits and looks! We feel like we can trust Meaghan as she tried to get us the best price and did not try to sell us things we didn't want/need.We will definitely be going back to Meaghan for our future fine jewelry needs ?

I don't write many reviews, so you know it means something! I'd absolutely recommend this place, especially if you're a fan of small businesses. I came in to get my engagement ring adjusted (it was part of my mom's ring and the head stuck out and looked weird, but now I'm so happy with it) and I'll be going back to get my wedding band welded to it. Meaghan was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and personable, and was able to offer similar rates to chain jewelers.

Meaghan was absolutely wonderful. I had my wedding ring repaired and appraised and she was extremely thorough. My ring looked beautiful and she went through all of the details of the appraisal. She even provided great maintenance tips and suggestions for the future to keep my ring in great shape. Would highly recommend!!

I needed hand engraving on the inside of plain platinum wedding bands for my wife and I (5mm wide for me, 3mm wide for her, both comfort fit) and Clark's in CDA recommended Nic Brotherton - he is associated with Meaghan at Paragon (his fiance).Met with both of them at the Paragon office and discussed what I wanted: a single word in latin on the inside of each ring in a script type font with the first letter capitalized. I had a particular font in mind based on the capital letter (same for both rings and had lots of flourish), but Nic explained the significant differences between a font created for printing or computer use and one that is engraved. Basically, the nature of engraving limits what can be done especially when you are engraving a minimally wide curved surface inside of a small ring! There is a standard script font used by engravers that was similar to what I wanted and Nic assured me that he would modify the font to come as close as possible to my font choice, in particular adding flourish to the capital letters. I followed up with an email to Nic the next morning with some additional thoughts and concerns and Nic addressed all of them.Picking up the rings at the office I was quite pleased with what Nic was able to do. First class work that exceeded my expectations, and the engraving will clearly last the lifetime of the ring. I would highly recommend Nic Brotherton for any hand engraving needs you have.

We could not be more pleased with Meaghan Laprath at Paragon Gem Services. Whether you are looking for appraisals of your jewelry or for some new sparkling pieces of custom designed jewelry, this is your place. Meaghan is knowledgeable, competent and above all honest. We have had several pieces appraised for insurance and purchased a new pair of beautiful earrings. Will most definitely be back (many times if I get my way) Mary Nyman

Paragon Gemological is easy to find downtown Spokane. Meaghan was extremely knowledgeable and did a great job on the appraisal for my ring. I am very thankful that she was referred to me.
