I have had the pleasure and great good fortune to work with Michael, the founder and owner of Alari Design. I discovered him through Etsy. Over the many years of business I have done through Etsy, Michael easily stands out among all the vendors I have ever worked with.
His designs are elegantly simple and rich. Each piece I own beams with care and quality and beautifully catches the light. At first, I purchased three rings but enjoyed them so much I purchased another five. When I realized how much I loved how they looked on my fingers, I bought more until I now have 16 rings in both gold and silver.
At this point, I should mention that his jewelry is also very reasonable.
This is the first time I have all but stopped wearing my other rings in favor of Alariās. I love how the subtle hammered effect on each ring catches and reflects the light. So much so that I requested a custom-made bracelet as the basis for this feature. I love this bracelet and now wear it all the time. I not only enjoy how his rings look on my fingers, but I also love how this jewelry feels when I wear them.
When I learned Michael could repair and replate jewelry, I began to send my jewelry to him for replating. They shine and look brand new. This service was also reasonable and very convenient. So, I am sending him more pieces to replace and repair.
As much as I value the beauty and quality of his jewelry, the convenient replating and repair services, and the loveliness of the custom jewelry he has made for me, collaborating with Michael is easy and a quiet joy. As a person, he is honest, authentic, transparent, and humble without trying to be.
I am grateful to do business with Michael, and I look forward to doing more business with him. I consider myself blessed to have found Michael and his...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI purchased a ring in Aug of 2023 and gave a 4 star review because I was concerned about it's longevity due to the delicate nature of the ring. Two years later and this ring is as beautiful as it was the day I received it. I am not easy on my jewelry and that was why I had my concerns. I love this ring so much that I have been feeling guilty over that 4 star rating. I wanted to delete it or revise it, but apparently that cannot be done after 6 months. I am now providing the 5 stars it deserved all along. I am shocked that there has been no bending and no wear signs. It's dainty, but not delicate! The quality is Amazing! I Highly Recommend Alari Design...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreI have yet to receive my order just because I just ordered last night . I can honestly say that with communication so quickly, via email, that I am going to return as a customer from now on. Michael personally responded to me in an email and that to me, especially today, means the world. Customer service, honesty and a personal touch will always win me over. Iām so excited to have found this business as I can tell the passion behind it. Thank you Michael for what you do. I will be back to tell how much I...
