Chinchar/Maloney — Local services in Taos

I can’t tell you how much I appreciate Marian for all the help in making the perfect ring for my wife. We just hit 8 years and I was finally able to give my wife a ring she can be proud of to replace the $263 dollar ring I could only afford when we first married. I wanted to surprise my wife which was scary because I didn’t want to get any details wrong with the style of ring and gems used but with everything I’ve remembered over the years of what my wife has said, Marian showed her experience and love for making memorable rings as she great in helping me narrow down the right way to go for my wife’s simple but unique taste while incorporating the natural diamond (salt and pepper diamond) and me and my son’s birthstones into it. My wife loved the ring! I wasn’t sure at first as I just wanted to make sure she wasn’t just being appreciative of the effort I put in, which she definitely does appreciate, but I always catch her looking at it and studying the gems with a genuine smile which puts my heart at rest knowing she truly does love it.

10 Stars! In September of 2019 I surprised my then girlfriend now wife with a visit to CM on a trip to Portland & Willamette.

My now wife of almost 5 years gets more compliments on her ring set that I have now added onto as anniversaries have come… We cannot wait to visit your new location! Wherever you guys go, we will follow! … there’s a ring in my pics that my wife still talks about to this day. 5 years will be here in February. I will...

I had never pictured myself as an engagement ring person, as I couldn't imagine myself in all the traditional styles - until I saw Chinchar/Maloney rings! The unique hand-cut gem shapes and colors are so fun and enchanting, and I love the company's commitment to ethically sourced gems and recycled gold. Marian worked closely with my now fiancé and was nothing but kind, and I experienced the same when I spoke to her about resizing and other questions. I will absolutely be purchasing my wedding band in the near future to match! Thank you so much again Chinchar/Maloney, everyone has been saying this ring suits me and my personality, I already treasure it so much, and I can't wait to have it on my finger...
