Absolutely phenomenal! I love Nazo and his wife Taline.
My husband and I went in to fix our engagement ring where one of the settings fell out and the ring was a little bit bent. They fixed it in 1 hour! They have an artisan there so it beats the waiting time. We were so shocked and ecstatic because we expected at least a wait time of 1 week. We've done jewelry in Japan before so our expectations were very high. They were absolutely fantastic. Very professional, sincere, informative, accommodating! Everything you would want when fixing your precious diamond.
We also had a necklace made and another fixed. I also requested an appraisal on one other item and everything was perfectly done. I even received a jewelry cleaner. OMG, we are definitely going back. I had such an over the top experience with them. I would recommend them to anyone!
DEFINITELY CHOOSE THEM. You won't regret it!

Contrast this experience to a different jeweler in my neighborhood where I had a ring created with one large gemstone. Similar amount of gold, and a far less complex setting. It cost twice as much and took...
Read moreNazo, he is truly the magic man. I needed custom jewelry made in a ridiculously short amount of time needed for my wife's second anniversary, but he delivered without any compromises in quality. My wife's Tanzanite stone looked even more stunning after the deft hands of Design Jewelers had crafted the final pendant.
Right away, he and his staff were warm and inviting. I was thinking of going further with customizations, but he steered me away from spending unnecessarily and possibly . At that point, I was wowwed by his honesty and professionalism. I'm definitely going to be a return customer.
Specs: 6 carat trillion cut Tanzanite pendant, mildly heated to a lighter blue-ish violet, set in a 6 prong basket setting (Nazo explained that since Tanzanite is not as hard on the Mohs scale, that the points of the trillion be protected, as to prevent chipping in the...
