I was feeling glum because I noticed one of the tiny diamonds from my wedding band fell out (after 13+ years). I used to joke that Iād never notice if one of them ever fell off since the diamonds are so teeny but, as usual, the universe has fun letting me know how wrong I am all the time. One day I looked down and there was a black hole in my wedding band. I did notice, and it was jarring. Being totally clueless about jewelry, I kind of panicked because I thought it was a big deal and nobody could fix it because the missing diamond is so small. Enter Jeff at Sherwood Bridge Diamonds. I stopped by his shop, he was very low-key and kind and he took a look at my wedding band and said he could fix it. For $15. I thought he was joking. He wasnāt, but it goes to show how clueless I am about jewelry. Two weeks later I picked up my wedding bandāgood as new--and brought two more rings with me. One was my grandmotherās ring, which I donāt wear much because the side of it is always snagging my clothing. The other ring was one I bought many years ago but, again, didnāt wear it because the diamond settings would jab the skin between my fingers whenever my hand was closed, and it was a very annoying feeling. Jeff went over some options and I liked them. He could remove all the little diamonds from the ring and set them in a band so that there would be no more prongs jabbing me between the fingers. What to do with the ring now that the diamonds were removed? I asked if it was salvageable. He suggested fitting a small Alexandrite on a bezel. He had been holding onto this gem for some time, someone offered to buy it from him but he didnāt feel like parting with it at the time. He thought it would look great on this ring. Honestly, Iām not very knowledgeable about jewelry but I trusted him and decided to go with it. I went to pick up the rings today and I canāt express enough how much I love the ring. My grandmotherās ring looks beautiful and feels smooth and no longer snags my clothing. The new 14k gold band with the tiny diamonds set in it is also beautiful and stacks well with my wedding band. But the ring with the Alexandrite, when he opened the black jewelry box and I saw it, holy cow. Itās just perfect. Itās more perfect and special than I even imagined. Itās unique and minimalistic, I canāt stop admiring it, and Iāve even thought about which special person I will leave it to when I pass from this life. Sorry for the long review, but I highly recommend Jeff and Sherwood Bridge Diamonds for all of your jewelry needs. Knowing how knowledgeable he is about diamonds, and then going to him with my teeny tiny diamonds, and having him treat me so kindly and genuinely, I am very grateful and will obviously be a repeat customer. If youāre still looking for a jeweler or for jewelry repair, I hope reading about my experience will prompt you to go with Jeff and Sherwood...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWOW! What a fantastic place! The folks at Sherwood Bridge Diamonds are absolutely the BEST in the industry! I cannot speak highly enough of Jeff and his team! Our experience was incredible from start to finish!
My husband did extensive research into diamonds, the industry, and different places to design all of our rings. We shopped around the top-rated jewelers and custom jewelers in the Orange County/Los Angeles area but were either unimpressed with the quality or unenthused with the jewelers themselves. Everything changed when we came to Sherwood Bridge Diamonds! We were blown away by their high-end diamonds/settings, design capabilities, excellent craftsmanship, and superior service.
From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm welcome, an offer for beverages, and plenty of expert support to make sure we were getting what we wanted, even when we didn't have a clear vision ourselves. My husband and I designed and purchased all of our custom rings - four in total - and our experience couldn't possibly be better!
Jeff went above and beyond to exceed our expectations! He listened to every detail we wanted and created the most beautiful pieces. Jeff took the time to walk us through the basics, showing us different styles and design possibilities with absolutely no pressure. His dedication to supreme customer service, professionalism, and passion is evident. Jeff is the type of jeweler every couple hopes to have. Not only is his craftsmanship of the finest quality, but he made the entire process enjoyable, seamless, and stress-free! We knew we were in good hands from the moment we walked through the door.
My rings (pictured) are gorgeous! I get compliments on my engagement ring every day! I cannot speak more highly of Jeff and the rest of the team at Sherwood Bridge Diamonds.
Ladies -- if you want your DREAM ring that will have everyone raving, then look no further!
Gentlemen -- if you want your significant other to be ecstatic with her ring without breaking the bank, then give Jeff a call. You won't regret it!
I'd highly recommend Sherwood Bridge Diamonds. Our experience was perfect! Thank you again for making our special moment that...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreOver 10 years ago I came to see Jeffery to find an engagement ring for my now wife. I had no idea what I was doing, outside of some research online, and I was terrified of how this whole experience was going to go. Jeffery couldn't have been more welcoming, patient, and willing to educate me more than he was. I went to another jeweler after I had met with Jeffery just to "shop around" and I after being hassled at another location I knew working with Jeffery was the right choice. The engagement ring and wedding bands we purchased from Jeffery turned out amazing and we cherish them today.
Fast forward to March 2024 and as a celebration of our 10th anniversary we decided to look into adding a second wedding band and looking at upgrading the engagement ring. With ZERO pressure from Jeffery to spend more money, go bigger on the diamond, or really about anything other than to answer all of our questions and provide advice, we were able to come up with a great solution. Once again everything turned out perfectly and I am happier to know that after so many years Jeffery continues to be the most patient and honest persons I've done business with. I cannot thank him enough.
If anyone was like me 10 years ago stressing out about purchasing "the ring" or really any piece of jewelry you care about, Jeffery will ensure that your experience will be smooth and that you'll come away feeling like you got exactly what you wanted. I know this sounds too good to be true but Jeffery operates on developing genuine relationships with people with unmatched customer service. Regardless of your distance from this shop, make it a point...
