Stark Jewelers designed my dream engagement ring!

I first met Larry while my engagement ring was being crafted. My fiancé brought me in to be sized. Larry was very friendly and made me feel comfortable as we tested different fits. I appreciated that he took the time to make sure that I could physically get the ring off my finger on my own before deciding on a size. Once I was sized, he had some design questions for my fiancé. Rather than sending me out to the car to wait, he sent me over to the bakery next door with a gift card to occupy myself. It was extremely thoughtful of him.

The morning after my fiancé proposed, my finger was a bit swollen so we went to Larry right away. He resized the ring and took into account how my finger is two different sizes (my knuckle is larger than my actual finger and that is why I was having trouble with the size). He got it to a better size and promised to have it done in a few days. He was a miracle worker and got it back to us in less than 5 hours! He took the time out of his schedule to finish my ring because he knew it was hard for me to be away from it so soon. I couldn’t have been more appreciative. He has emailed my fiancé and has given us a timetable to check back in with him to reassess the fit since the swelling will be gone.

I have heard nothing but great things about Larry from my fiancé. He was easy to work with, extremely knowledgeable, and was eager to help find the perfect design for my ring. I appreciated that he considered what I did for work and my preferences that I had told my fiancé prior to the design.

We will definitely be coming back to Larry to design a matching wedding band once the time comes. I couldn’t recommend Larry and Stark...

Stark Studios: A Hidden Gem Awaits!

I had the most incredible experience today at Stark Studios! I brought in a cherished heirloom piece of family jewelry for appraisal and was warmly welcomed by the owner, Larry Stark. Let me tell you, I left with so much more than just an appraisal—I got a masterclass in jewelry!

Larry is not just a knowledgeable gemologist; he’s a passionate artist. He took the time to explain the fascinating nuances between invisible and visible diamond settings in a way that a total novice like me could easily grasp. His expertise is matched only by his artistic flair. As I explored the studio, I was captivated by his stunning creations that beautifully blend various gems with unique metals. Each piece is a work of art!

I also discovered that Larry designs and creates custom Jewelry and sets heirloom pieces for clients, making it accessible to wear every day. To top it all off, I learned that the ring I inherited from my mom features an invisible setting, a design innovation that dates back to the 1930s by Van Cleef & Arpels!

Stark Studio is truly a rare find, and so is the talented Mr. Stark himself. If you're looking for an unforgettable jewelry experience, this is the...

Larry Stark was extremely easy to work with, knowledgeable, and created the perfect engagement ring to give my fiancée. When I started shopping for an engagement ring, I attempted to find the closest approximation of the ideal ring at the big jewelry chains. The sales people I worked with were not very knowledgeable and were more interested in making a sale than making sure the ring was right. I decided to contact Larry and request a consult and quote on a ring. Larry set aside time to discuss the ring in detail, and provided design suggestions to make sure the ring would look great and stand up to everyday wear. He had no reservation about working with lab grown diamonds, and provided a very reasonable price and timeline. Larry contacted me regularly with updates, and was discrete to make sure my fiancée didn’t find out early. The ring turned out better than I had planned, and the craftsmanship is noticeable in all of the small details. After the proposal, we noticed the ring was sitting a little tight the next day. We took it into Larry, and he had it resized and back on her hand in the same day. It meant so much...
