After a long engagement ring jewler search where I talked to and received indicative pricing from over 5 jewelers in Chicago, I went with Fahmina. I also worked with her to create a custom gold chain necklace with custom gold pendant. She and her team were straight-forward, honest, and provided near-wholesale pricing on diamonds. Other jewlers that were reputed online were asking for 2-3x the price for lower quality stones. I will note that other jewlers may provide more "white-glove" service, but that is definitely not worth many many thousands in upcharge. I found Fahmina to provide good service, she was very quick to jump on the phone and respond to texts. When I asked somewhat novice questions, she gave me great detailed responses and wanted to make sure I understood whatever we were discussing. She also steered me away from higher priced options when she could have easily not done that and taken the extra margin. Given how easy she was to work with and her honesty and transparency, I can wholeheartedly recommend her to family and friends. read more

I'm sure Fahmina knows this about me..() and she has never let me down. Never. From customer service to skill and knowledge of stones/jewelery; Fahmina has always exceeded my expectations.

2nd City Diamonds - Wedding rings on our wedding day. - Jewelry Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I was looking for an engagement ring and my friend in Chicago recommended this place. I live in Virginia but I put my blind faith in the owner Fahmina. I explained what I was looking for and my price range and for weeks she took the time to help me find what I was looking for. She custom made the setting and found me a gorgeous yellow diamond. Its 10 times better than what I was expecting. I for one am a very picky and detail oriented person, but Fahmina was very patient with me throughout the entire process and I really appreciate it! I have literally gotten a compliment on my ring every day since I've worn it. Highly recommend this place!! read more

Diamonds are forever, and when something is in your life forever, it should be nothing less than perfect. I was under a lot of stress helping my best friend/roommate search for her perfection, and after months of research and endless store visits we found EXACTLY what we were looking for at 2nd City Diamonds. The store is beautiful and very intimate, and provides a wide range of sparkling selection. We met up with the owner Fahmina Muhit, who was not only extremely helpful, but she was very patient and sweet. She offered us one on one service, and her expertise was clearly evident when helping us narrow down our choices. She was patient and never rushed us, unlike the people at Tiffany's. The best part of it all, the price that was paid for it was the BEST in the market. Now when my bestfriend enters a room, her ring illuminates the whole place and she gets tons of compliments where ever she goes. The store is located in an amazing downtown location, much more convenient for people like us who don't have cars. I have decided I will get my rock from her because she truly customizes everything according to the individual's desire. 2nd City Diamond truly "ROCKS"! read more

The thing we like about her is she gave us a lot of suggestions and options and she never think of just making a sale but on how to make her customers satisfied which she did. She will not force you to buy something that you don't like..she really worked with us patiently. I had mine customized and she made it happen the way I want it without any flaws. And for my fiancé, he help him find the ring he wants as well. We will definitely recommend her to all of our friends and everyone who saw our rings are amazed because it was so perfect.

I was recommended by my boss/friend to get in touch with Fahmina at 2nd City Diamonds to make a diamond wedding band for myself. She was very informative and easy to work with! I sent her a picture of the ring I loved, and what I received in return was far more beautiful than what I anticipated. The Diamonds were very good quality and so sparkly! Perfection! I will use Fahmina for all of my future jewelry purchases! KV read more

Words can not express how awesome of an experience I had working with Fahmina from 2nd City Diamonds. Like many of the reviews I read on here already, I absolutely had no clue what I was doing in terms of picking out an engagement ring. Fahmina was an all-star from the get go. She spent the initial meeting educating me on what to look for in terms of diamonds and answered every question thereafter. She was so professional and genuinely cared about the satisfaction I received from her not just with the final product but with each session as I tried finding the perfect stone. We had a customer ring made and when created , it was better than I could imagine. These moments come once in a lifetime and the experience I had with Fahmina will always make this moment that much more memorable. When the ring was presented to me it simply left me speechless. The ring was impeccable and honestly one of the most beautiful rings I have seen (not biased) but know I made the right choice in going to 2nd City. I will definitely be back for the wedding band but everyone that I know who is looking for an engagement ring or simply a diamond I will instantly refer them to Fahmina. Wish I could show you the ring but my soon to be fiancé doesn't know about it yet. So pics will be uploaded soon. Thanks Fahmina for everything and so glad I came to 2nd City Diamonds.

Diamonds are forever...until it falls out of it's setting and is lost for eternity! I was looking to replace the diamond in my engagement ring. We made appointments with several places in the city. 2nd City Diamonds was our first stop. We were very impressed with the number of diamonds Fahmina had to show us in our price range. Needing to look around more for our peace of mind, we went to our other appointments to see what other venders had to show us. Needless to say, most of them were down right torturous. We ended up back at 2nd City Diamonds and purchased a beautiful diamond in our price range. I can't thank Fahamina enough! She had by far the most inventory to show us, was patient, knowledgeable and a total professional. She made sure we saw the diamond in several different lighting settings, didn't pressure us and was just a delight to work with. Her prices were fair as well. I would recommend 2nd City Diamonds to anyone looking to purchase a diamond ring. read more

Fahmina is hands down the best person you can work with! I was nervous about getting the engagement ring for my now finacee since she wanted the exact piece she saw online. I live in PA and fahmina's business is located in chicago. So technically we never met, and we did the whole business over email and cellphone. I got her reference from my cousin who lives in Chicago. he also used her store to get the engagement ring for his now wife. Fahmina made sure that all my requests and silly questions were answered. She definitely knows how to give you the best options for your budget, and also give you a product that exceeds your expectations. My fiancee absolutely loved her ring. So obviously we went back to her to get our wedding bands as well. Given the fact my finacee was looking specifically for one piece she liked, fahmina created the same exact piece within our budget. we both love our wedding bands. she goes above and beyond to make sure her customers are happy and satisfied. I would definitely suggest anyone to go with Fahmina (2nd city diamonds) with any kind of diamond jewelry needs, she is awesome!! I sure will contact her again with my future purchases. read more
