Bottom line, if you are in the process of engagement ring shopping, you should not buy a ring until you visit Stone Oak Jewelers and talked with Dan. The customer service there is unparalleled. I started doing research online about places in San Antonio to find the best prices and quality. All the reviews for SOJ's were spectacular so I walked in and looked at their selection. I knew exactly the style of ring my fiance wanted and didn't see it in any of the showcases. I showed Dan a picture of the style of ring she wanted. He recreated the ring from only the picture and a description in a 3d rendering machine he has that makes the ring out of a plastic-resin type material. Then Dan helped me pick out the best stone I could afford. I told him the cut and carat I wanted and he let me pick from many loose diamonds from the back.
He instructed me on how to view the diamonds under a loop, and after narrowing down the diamonds I picked the One.

Richard answered all of my questionsâand as a first time custom jewelry buyer, I had manyâthoroughly and patiently. He cared to ensure I got what I wanted, and provided suggestions to me that made the end product even betterâwithout trying to upsell me or change the essence of the design. This was extremely important to me as I had a rather clear vision of the ring I wanted for my partner, and I was happy that was respected.
As for the ring itself: it's perfect and I sincerely could not be more pleased with it. Before going to Stone Oak, I didn't believe it was possible to get an engagement ring without compromising on something: the quality of the diamond, the side stones, or my budget.

Stone Oak Jewelers, youâve been part of our love story from the very beginning â and we couldnât be more grateful. Mike and DeAnne, your craftsmanship and personal care are unmatched.
Five years ago, you created a breathtaking custom engagement ring and wedding set for my wife that still stops people in their tracks to this day. Every detail was thoughtful, intentional, and absolutely stunning. Fast forward to now, and you did it again â this time designing a custom band for me that is bold, timeless, and truly one-of-a-kind âDewayne Wadeâ ring.
What sets Stone Oak Jewelers apart isnât just the jewelry (which is flawless), itâs the people. Mike and DeAnne made us feel like family from day one. They listened, advised, and poured their heart into every design choice. You donât just leave with a ring â you leave with something meaningful, masterfully crafted, and built to last a lifetime.
Thank you for helping us celebrate love then, now, and always. We couldnât imagine trusting anyone else with something so personal.
Highly,...
