I live in South Saint Johns so there are a lot of jewelers between my home and Allen’s but after doing some research and reading the reviews I decided I would make the trip up and it was definitely worth the drive! My beautiful wedding band of over 15 years had been showing its years. One of the prongs on my center diamond was completely smashed down and the others were worn making my stone unstable and most recently the solder that bonded my set together had broken. One of the best things about this jeweler is that your jewelry never leaves the store! Dennis is the owner and jeweler so it stays in capable hands the entire time. The sales ladies were kind, helpful, sweet and just all around nice!

No honesty and no standing behind their product at Allen's. They burned me twice on big ticket purchases - do not spend money there and let...
Read moreDennis and the lovely staff at Allen’s made me and my fiancé feel like family. He created a custom engagement ring from a picture I provide him and an inherited diamond that came out flawless. They walked me through every step of the way, letting me hand pick additional loose diamonds for the setting, showed me CAD designs to approve beforehand and really just made sure he made exactly what I wanted. This was a real VIP experience. We also went back a second time to have him create our custom wedding bands as well. If you have a custom piece you need made or are just looking for a comfortable atmosphere to shop around then Dennis and his team at Allen’s is where...
