Jorge's creation of a new family heirloom

My mom passed away this spring, and I received several pieces of family jewelry after her death. I also had an engagement ring from a previous marriage that was just sitting in my safe. I went to Jorge to see if he could take the various pieces and create something wonderful that would have in it a piece of my mom and my grandmother. The result is breathtaking and will be passed on through the generations. I literally brought him a bag of random stones, and he created something that I will hold near and dear until it is time to pass it along to the next generation. Thank you!!

My wife and I lived in DC for decades and did all of our jewelry at a well known story in DC. When we purchased a home in northern Virginia a good friend said that we needed to come to Adeler for a project. My wife's engagement ring was a pigeon blood ruby purchased for my great grandmother in 1890. It was/is a very unique ruby with significant value, but the setting was antique and the ring was stressed. Jorge pulled me into his office and showed how we could recreate the ring. He helped with an entirely new design....platinum instead of yellow gold, new diamonds, and a completely renovated ruby that needed it after 130 years. The result was incredible. My wife is thrilled with the remake and we now have a new family heirloom which will stay in the family for centuries more. This jewelry store is truly a "gem" for northern Virginia. Highly recommend for anyone with discerning taste.

Three ring engagement ring

My boyfriend and I went to Adele's jewelers to create a custom engagement ring using diamonds from a family bracelet. They were quick to respond and schedule an appointment. It only took and hour to design the ring (which I love!). He was very clear about pricing. Much better experience designing a custom piece than tiny jewel box in DC.

Jorge & his team did it again! My fiancé and I came in to create our wedding bands after a wonderful experience designing my custom engagement ring with Jorge. I was absolutely floored with the results! They are the best jewelers in the business, and we feel so appreciated and welcomed the minute we walk in the door. Jorge helped me design my dream wedding band (along with my engagement ring), and I could not be happier with the results. Pictures don't do it justice, it is even more beautiful in person! We will definitely be back for more - I HIGHLY recommend Jorge and his team for all your jewelry needs.

My engagement/wedding ring after soldering - stunning!

When you come to Adeler Jewelers, prepare to receive an education! My mother recommended them to me for my wedding ring after coming in for a repair to my father's puzzle ring - puzzle rings are very precise pieces of jewelry and she was impressed with the repair. My husband ordered my engagement ring from Etsy, but the seller didn't have a matching wedding band, so I came to Adeler to have one made and to look for a ring for my husband. They gave invaluable advice about how to care for my engagement ring - the band is very thin and delicate and I wouldn't have known how quickly it could wear down if they hadn't told me. The also recommended soldering my wedding and engagement rings together so that they would last longer - an elegant solution I wouldn't have considered! They were very helpful and thoughtful in helping my husband choose a band and coming up with ways I could add a personal touch (adding a circle of silver taken from one of my pieces of jewelry - I didn't know this was even possible!). My sister has since come in as well for help and advice on how to repair and recreate some of her older jewelry and received very good advice on next steps and price points. This is all especially meaningful considering that my family and I probably represent some of their lower cost sales - their custom designed pieces on display are far and above anything I could afford, but we've always been given top service and cost-effective advice in addition to stunning craftsmanship. Well worth every penny we've spent, and I can truthfully say there's no other shop I would consider visiting.

It's such a stunning ring, and it's exactly what I wanted! Stephanie is amazing at crafting beautiful and durable rings. I also bring my ring in for cleanings and tightening whenever I need, and there's no cost for that since I got the ring from AQ. My fiancé and I just went back to order our wedding bands. Highly recommend AQ Jewelers!!!

I trusted Stephanie with resizing several sentimental pieces of jewelry--three rings and a…read morebracelet, including a family heirloom that belonged to my great-grandfather. When I first met with her, I asked if it was even possible to make my great-grandfather's ring a few sizes smaller. I specifically asked whether resizing it would affect the stone or the integrity of the ring because it was an antique that had been in my family for years. I explained that I had waited a long time to have it resized because I wanted to make sure it was done correctly. Stephanie assured me it would be "not a problem." She told me to trust her and to read all of her good reviews. I told her that her reviews were the reason I chose her business. I also explained that I had never had jewelry resized before and asked several questions about the process. She told me that she needed to cut out the extra silver from the band in order to bend and make the rings smaller, then soldering them to melt the metal back together. I was excited to finally be able to wear these pieces, and she made me feel confident that they were in good hands. After examining everything I brought in, she told me the work would take about a week. I told her there was absolutely no rush because I wanted to make sure she had plenty of time to do the work carefully, so I actually left my jewelry with her for an additional week. She was pleasant at the beginning of our meeting but then became noticeably snappy, repeatedly reminding me that I would need to bring the yellow receipt to pick up my jewelry. That was understandable. When pickup day arrived, I called a few times. During my first call, she sounded busy and told me she wasn't finished working on my rings but that they would be done by closing time. She said she would call when everything was ready, and once again reminded me--rather abruptly--that I needed to bring the yellow receipt. As closing time got closer and I still hadn't heard from her, she finally called to say my order was ready for pickup and again reminded me to bring the yellow receipt. I assured her I hadn't forgotten. When I arrived, she informed me that one of my rings had not been resized to the size I requested because she "didn't have enough time." This was confusing since I had already given her an extra week beyond her original estimate. It made me wonder whether my order had simply been forgotten. She told me she had just finished working on it. I asked why she hadn't mentioned over the phone that one ring still needed more time. She admitted she should have told me and said she would take care of it. Unfortunately, the ring she needed to resize again was the one that had belonged to my great-grandfather--the same ring I had explained meant so much to me. Having to resize it a second time was very concerning because repeated heating and soldering can increase the risk to the stone and gradually thin the silver. I left the ring with her for additional MONTH. When I got it back, it was still too big, and the silver had been soldered and buffed so thin that I'm honestly afraid to wear it. If Stephanie wasn't confident that she could resize these pieces properly--especially a sentimental family heirloom--she should have been honest with me from the beginning. I would have appreciated her telling me the job was beyond her comfort level or expertise so I could have taken my jewelry to someone else. Or chosen not to have it done at all. Instead, she accepted the work, assured me there would be "no problem". Overall, I am not happy with any of the resizing work. The seams on the resized bands are not smooth or seamless, and the workmanship looks rushed rather than carefully finished. Stephanie asked whether I was happy with my rings, and I honestly told her I wasn't. She tried polishing them to make them look better, but they were still uneven and bumpy. Another issue that disappointed me was that I was never given the silver that had been cut from my rings during the resizing process. Since this was my first time ever having jewelry resized, I didn't know I should ask for those pieces, and they were never offered or returned to me. I later learned that many jewelers return the precious metal that is removed, so I was surprised to find out mine had been kept without any discussion. My great-grandfather's ring is now essentially unwearable for me, and I never received the silver that was removed from my rings. I trusted Stephanie with sentimental family heirlooms based on her reputation and reviews, and unfortunately, my experience was extremely disappointing. Her rates were extremely overpriced and were almost triple the amount other jewelers quoted but was willing to pay thinking the results would be exceptional base on the reviews.

The first time we came was a walkin and we got there about 30 minutes before closing so we were not expecting much, just browsed around. We ended up making an appointment with Chanae the following week. We still felt as if we were not being taken seriously throughout the appointment. The selection was nice and we were told that the rings were customizable. But when we asked specifics for a specific ring it couldnt be done. We also had a budget and were shown rings outside of it, which would of course end up disappointing. We ended up moving forward with a different jeweler.

For a guy who knew almost nothing about jewelry, I very much appreciated how she explained everything and was so patient with me. I had an impossible request to have a ring ready in less than a week (I didn't think it would be possible) and was floored when she was actually able to make it happen. We ended up picking a great ring that I knew my girlfriend would love for a reasonable price. Everyone here is very friendly and professional, with no pushy sales tactics. I really felt very comfortable the entire time and genuinely enjoyed my experience. My girlfriend (now fiancée) said yes and keeps complimenting me on the ring. I catch her admiring the high quality diamond all the time. Would definitely come back, but hopefully not for another engagement ring! Highly recommend!

Yeeeeears ago - 1992 to be exact - my dad bought my mother a beautiful gold and diamond tennis…read morebracelet. I remember this clearly from when I was a little kid. It was so blingy and likely very expensive that she yelled at him for buying it. I, still in elementary school, saw that she was dissatisfied with the purchase and offered to take it off her hands. Surprisingly, she refused my offer. Well, earlier this year, exactly three decades later, she finally gave me the damn thing, along with appraisal paperwork from 1992 saying that it was worth $10,000 even then, before 30 years of inflation. But don't get excited and start planning to rob me quite yet, Internet. She also told me that the guy who sold it to my dad was later federally investigated for selling fake diamonds, so there was a chance it wasn't even real. I needed an appraisal. I looked around, and saw that Ascot Diamonds was highly reputable, so I reached out about an appraisal via e-mail. Paul e-mailed me back very promptly and offered to appraise it for free. I came in at the agreed time expecting it to be a regular storefront but it was more like a serious business office, immediately making me regret my scuzzy short shorts that I had thrown on for running errands. Paul was kind and welcoming and pleasant and sat me down at his desk while he examined the diamonds, weighed the bracelet, and then did a bunch of math on a calculator. He was able to confirm that they were real but that, while the bracelet was definitely worth something, the original appraisal was VERY overstated (so, big surprise, Internet, my bracelet is not worth $10,000, please don't rob me). In addition to giving me this candid but helpful information, Paul offered to recommend places where I could sell it, though I declined, as it is still quite pretty and, after waiting 30 years for it, I'm not ready to give it up. I did, however, point out what I thought was a damage, and asked if he had ideas on where to get it repaired. He looked at it and determined it was just dirt so then he cleaned it for me - again, no charge - and the whole thing is SO sparkly and shiny now. The entire interaction took maybe 10 minutes at the outside? It was so easy and pleasant and helpful, and he really didn't have to do this for me since I am not a paying customer but he did. What a truly nice guy.

Everything is custom made so they only have the diamonds and a few sample holders that you can hold the diamond in with tweezers and hover in the sample ring band. We are in the initial phases of ring shopping so we haven't gotten too far in the process with Ascot. What I will say is I was also initially disappointed with the customer service. The man helping us didn't seem super friendly. He seems passionate about talking about his ring knowledge but not about MY experience if that makes sense. I was probably being a bit cranky that the ring shop wasn't what I expected. So maybe he was giving me the same energy in return. They had tons of diamond choices, but if you're looking for larger carat sizes you might not find it here. He only brought out the carat sizes in 2-3 carat range. I believe they can order what you want, but they didn't have anything in store to try on. When I asked to see a bigger carat for the emerald he said that's all they had (size 3 carat). There weren't a ton of band selections in office to try on either. They have lab and natural diamonds. I didn't see the process but my boyfriend said the prices were reasonable. Just remember they price everything out individually since you're customizing the ring. Also, the ambiance of the ring shop wasn't the best. It just looked like an office which made the experience not feel as special like "wow! I'm in a ring shop and we are really doing this." All of that is part of the experience when shopping. You need to book an appointment in advance. There's street parking, but you have to pay for the street or garage parking. There's no parking validation available. Overall, we might give them another chance once I have a better idea of what it is I want. If you're not sure what you want this might not be the place for you since everything is based on you customizing it. I really want to like this place but I wish they made the experience a bit nicer on their customers. They offer 3D print option of the ring which takes some time but that's the best they can do for us visual folks.

After browsing for a few moments, I found a pearl ring in the fine jewelry case. I had been looking for a pearl ring for about a month or so because our oldest sister passed away in December and her birth stone was a pearl and she loved them so much. I wanted a pearl ring to wear every day to keep her close. A wonderful brunette sales associate (who I regretfully forgot to ask her name) approached me to help me to pull it out of the case. I loved the ring named the Kathleen which is also my mother's name coincidentally. The ring in the case happened to be the perfect size for my finger and the last one and I knew I was leaving with it. I told her the significance of the ring and she was so sweet. I started to look at possible stacking rings, she pulled a few in different sizes and styles for me from the back and sat with me as I tried them on, ultimately I decided against getting a stacking pair because of the way the rings sat. My sister and I browsed for a little bit longer and she came out with one more size of the Kathleen ring that she found in another section, it happened to be my little sisters exact size, we purchased matching rings for our big sister. She told us then that we would be eligible for a discount when we purchased both the rings. When we went to checkout she told us she was so touched by our story and the reason we were purchasing that she wanted to give us both a June birthday necklace for free as a gift from her. We were blown away and couldn't believe that she would do this for us. Thank you so much KS Reston!! We will absolutely be returning customers here
