My experience with everyone (except Clark) has been exceptional. They are so kind, polite, and very helpful. This place is very busy and there can be a wait but hey do offer appointments (which I haven't taken advantage of so my wait was expected. My experience with Clark was pretty bad so bad that no matter how great everyone else has been it was enough to just want to easily find another place. He comes off very ..... pompous, kind of with a turned up nose. I came in to have some jewelry (purchased else where) appraised to be insured. 1. He told me that my diamond was a waste because to the naked eye a lessor quality diamond looks the same and I could have saved money. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? IF I was shopping for a ring and mentioned I was on a budget I can understand that statement but he said that about a ring I ALREADY own. 2. He appraised my ring at a lessor weight based off a guess-ta-mation (measuring while in the settings) even though I had the paperwork/receipt from where I purchased it. His ego didn't want to discuss it. I took it to have the diamonds officially weighed and I was right he under valued it. 3. He gave me a big schpeal on fudging the appraisal, why did he look at me and tell me this. I was looking for an appraisal to get insured not looking to do fraud. It felt insulting. My whole experience felt insulting I don't like to use the "Card" maybe, maybe not but there is definitely this aire of ego and arrogance that was just so off putting. I know he's the son of the owners so maybe thats why he behaves this way but I would recommend a lesson on customer service. Oh yeah I went in another time with a friend (who recommended me) and he immediately told us as we walked in, I haven't eaten, I'm going to eat and left us waiting. Thankfully I would have waiting for ANYONE else but seriously just terrible customer service.
My recommendation if you do decide to choose this store, make an appointment and make it with anyone other than Clark. Hope this was...

   Read moreI am a transplant who moved to LA for my girlfriend who I wanted to ask to be my fiance. I don't own any jewelry and really felt out of my element looking at engagement rings and diamonds. I had gone to see some settings at places like Brilliant Earth, and we had looked at designs on some other large, eCommerce jewelry stores. My personality is to do a lot of research before big purchases, and my research kept telling me to work with a local jeweler. I did a quick search for the best jewelers in West Hollywood, and Claydon popped up. After a quick conversation with Maggie about what I was looking for, I knew I wanted to work with her and her family. She was very knowledgeable and thoughtful through the entire process. Maggie's demeanor and personality made me trust her immediately. I would recommend them to anyone. The ring is perfect. Their customer service was perfect. Their attitude towards their customers is perfect.
My mother has a terminal illness. I wanted to be able to propose while my mom was still here, and Claydon was able to take my order and get my ring within 2 weeks. I proposed on a Friday night. The ring needed to be resized, and Claydon was able to resize it by 10am the next day which allowed us to celebrate the following day out of town. Claydon truly went above and beyond to make my fiance's dream...
