I cannot say enough good things about Alex and Christensen Jewelers - there is no better place in the Twin Cities for all of your jewelry needs, and I can't recommend them enough. Alex has consistently provided outstanding service, quality and value - in fact, I was shocked to come across a negative review, as my experiences have always been incredibly positive. Alex recently designed a custom initial necklace for me that is based on a similar necklace that belongs to my mom. The attention to detail and craftsmanship of the necklace are extremely impressive, and my finished necklace is the exact same size, weight and style of my mom's - literally identical. Every single detail was accounted for, and I was honestly blown away by the finished product. Moreover, the design process was extremely collaborative, and Alex was receptive, responsive and patient in walking through the design process, making suggestions based on his expertise and explaining the in-house CAD design, 3-D printing and fabrication process to me. I walked away not only thrilled with my new necklace, but feeling like I had learned a lot about the incredible artistry and care that goes into each of his pieces.
I have also purchased diamond earrings and other pieces from Alex and have found his approach and knowledge so helpful - he is never pushy or trying to upsell. Instead, I have always felt like he makes recommendations with my best interests in mind as to wearability and respects my pricing parameters. Alex has also resized multiple rings for me, and I have found his pricing to be fair and transparent and the re-sizing done quickly and perfectly the first time. As a family-owned jeweler, he offers competitive rates and personalized service that were missing at other jewelers I have been to in the past (including the one we bought our engagement ring and wedding bands from before we found Alex).
Again, I highly recommend Christensen Jewelers for anyone seeking quality jewelry and exceptional value and service. Alex's commitment to customer satisfaction and fair pricing is evident in every aspect of his business, and his talent as a jeweler - especially with custom design -...
Read moreLOVE THIS PLACE! I WOULD RECEOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE/EVERYONE!!!! I brought my grandmothers wedding ring in to be brought back to like new condition, and it is all that I expected and MORE! I had brought this ring to corporate, big name jewelers for quotes on the repairs, which were extensive, and they all quoted thousands. My grandmother wore the ring for 50 years, never removing it until she passed. It has 19 diamonds (was missing two) which meant that it needed several prongs re-tipped. Besides the prongs and the missing diamonds replaced, the band was also restored with additional metal and then sized appropriately for my finger. The total job at Christensen's was a FRACTION of what I was quoted elsewhere. This experience was a rather emotional one for me, as this ring is one of the most precious items I own. They went above and beyond not only with the repairs, but the customer service. Friendly, focused, kind, knowledgeable and professional. Thank you to Ben and the crew! You guys are AMAZING! And you WILL be seeing me and my husband (and hopefully a few friends) again! Rebecca and...
Read moreI have married on last week. Before some weeks for the marriage, me and my fiancé were busy in finding an Engagement ring as no ring could be found in our area. One day, my fiancé found them on Google (with a very high rating), we decided to use them to find an engagement ring. As we go there, I have found Christensen Jewelers has a huge collection of traditional, Unique and breathtaking items. And their beauty is truly outstanding variety of mixed metals, gem stones, pearls....on and on! Plus they are outstanding when it comes to repair, reworking or solving problems with most special pieces. While my fiancé was choosing a proper ring, I have walked and noticed out beautiful ornaments that they have. The staff gave us a tremendous support in finding a better ring for her. The ring we bought is beautiful and we're both completely happy with every aspect of the purchase process. It was very nice to have such a friendly, calm experience from start to finish. I'll definitely recommend your...
