    The final product.

    THE SWEETEST, EASIEST, AND WORTHWHILE JEWELRY (ENGAGEMENT RING) SHOPPING EXPERIENCE EVER. You can't beat a family operated business that is operated by four GIA graduate gemologists. The coolest thing is that they are all brothers and sisters (at the time of my visit, only one of the brothers and sisters were present)! Not only will you feel secure and reassured about dropping a significant amount of money, the process from A to Z is sweet and easy. My fiancee and I were probably one of few people of age 24 walking around the jewelry district (By no means I'm saying we are loaded but honestly, who would you take more seriously in regards to potential business? The 24 year old couple or that middle-aged man with a Rolex?) As we walked in, we received a warm greeting but "silly kiddos" was written all over their forehead. Either way, we didn't feel intimidated or pressure, just a nice, relaxed, family setting vibe. They just continued on with their routine. As we were browsing their offerings, they asked us if we needed help. My fiancee told them exactly what she wanted. They also asked what our budget was. THEY GAVE HER EXACTLY WHAT SHE WANTED WITHIN OUR BUDGET AND THE RESULTS WERE AMAZING! First, she chose the setting. It was the exact setting she wanted and the best part is that it was paired with a wedding band. On to the diamond... The woman pulled a few diamonds from her inventory and sat the diamonds on the setting to show us examples of what the end result could be. She also took out the time to show us the diamonds under magnification and told us key things to watch out for when purchasing a diamond. She ended up choosing a diamond which is 1 ct, round cut, F color VS2 clarity, and excellent across the board of specs. It is amazingly beautiful especially under magnification and it was literally the entire budget. VERY VERY WELL WORTH IT. The most amazing feeling was that when we chose the pairing, we honestly thought while the woman was crunching numbers on the calculator that it would be well above our budget. The price was too good to be true but it was in fact true. The re-sizing and setting of the diamond took a bit over an hour. We were shocked in awe especially my fiancee's reaction was priceless. We were happy, the siblings were happy that we were happy, and everything turned out to be perfect. I HIGHLY recommend this place for many reasons: -Read my testimony above. -A majority of the time, you will tell jewelers your budget and they will attempt to upsell you even if it's a few hundred dollars more. Here, they respect your budget, your time, and their time. You tell them your budget, they'll meet it. -It's a jewelry business so cash is king. If you don't know why, ask around. -They will take you every step of the way, literally from providing options to even education. I was even walked downstairs to watch bits of the re-sizing and setting process. -Cozy family environment. While we were waiting for everything to be completed, we were hanging out in the shop talking to the employees. We felt like we were talking to our uncles and aunts. Laid-back, comfortable, relaxing unlike most shops where you feel like you are being hard-sold or given that observant gaze where you are being financially profiled. -It's pricey, but you are shopping for DIAMONDS so don't forget that. You get what you pay. Quality diamonds, more money. So-so diamonds, less money. Either way they will meet your budget but however much you are paying, it is worth every single dollar.

A few months before ordering the ring, my now-fiancé and I looked around with numerous vendors in the jewelry district, boutique jewelers, and department stores. After spending some time with Nathan at Capri, there was no doubt that our ring would be coming from them. Nathan answered all of our questions, giving us a 101 lesson on diamond rings. He was extremely patient and collaborative, helping my fiancé create a vision for her perfect ring. When it was time to order the ring a few months later, Nathan was very responsive and professional every step of the way. 10/10 experience, will be coming back to this team for any future jewelry needs.

The customer service is exceptional, always welcoming, attentive, and genuinely invested in making sure you leave happy. What really sets them apart is their ability to create the most beautiful custom pieces. Every item we've had made has exceeded our expectations and holds so much meaning for our family. If you're looking for quality, trust, and a jeweler who truly cares, Capri Jeweler is the place to go. We wouldn't go anywhere else!

    Eli is awesome! I…read morestumbled upon him while I was in the building meeting with a different company who showed me some of the worst diamonds I've ever seen and tried to convince me that they were pretty. Eli knew exactly what I meant when I asked for a beautifully symmetric diamonds and not crushed ice. We vibed right away. He has great taste and knows what a beautiful diamond looks like from an ugly one. Because let me tell you, there are a lot of ugly diamonds out there and there are many brokers who will try to convince you that they're pretty! I also really appreciated that he didn't ask what my budget was like so many other places. He focused on finding me not one, but two perfectly matched pairs of diamonds for studs. All of the other places wouldn't show me more than one pair. And you know what? I took both pairs because they were both so perfect I couldn't let them go! Other places told me it was impossible to find 2 old mine cushion cut matching diamonds but Eli did it. And he did it in like 2 days! He called me and kept me updated. When he showed me the diamonds he was super patient as I studied each one. There was never, at any point any sales pressure. He let me think over which pair I wanted without threatening that they'd be gone the next day (unlike Capri). I highly recommend him and wish I had found him before I got engaged!

I shopped around extensively, from South OC to Redlands, and even scoured the Jewelry district in LA. From start to finish, no one was as inviting, educational, and patient with me as a buyer. Eli showed me multiple options for center stones, partnered with me to create a custom design that we both loved, and gave me an extremely fair price on a premium product. We maintained excellent communication throughout the process, and he worked double time to deliver his product not just on time, but ahead of schedule. He is an authentic man with an honest practice in an industry that is rife with people trying to rush you to make a decision. If you trust him with your service, I know he will come through. Thank you for being such a significant part of my engagement story. I know my fiancé is excited to meet you. -Doc

    We had such a great experience at LA Diamond Factory in the Jewelry District! We worked with…read moreMeryvn, and from the very beginning he was incredibly honest, upfront, and transparent about pricing and gold weight. We had been shopping around and comparing several jewelers, and he was by far the most straightforward and informative. Meryvn is also extremely charismatic and easy to work with -- he made what can feel like an overwhelming process actually enjoyable. He took the time to explain everything about the gold quality, weight, and pricing so we felt confident in what we were buying. No pressure, no gimmicks -- just real information and fair numbers. We ended up finding our dream solid 14k gold wedding bands, and he gave us a great deal compared to other quotes we received in the area. The quality and craftsmanship are beautiful, and we walked away feeling really good about our purchase. If you're looking for solid gold bands and want someone who is transparent, knowledgeable, and fair, definitely ask for Meryvn. Highly recommend!

From the very beginning, he was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. Im someone who values opinions of those who have an expertise in an area, and he has no problem giving us his thoughts and opinion. As we were figuring out what my girlfriend's ideal ring would be, Mervyn offered honest insight, great guidance, and never made the process feel rushed or overwhelming.(not to mention a great price) He truly took the time to understand what I was looking for and helped bring that vision to life, making what could have been a stressful decision feel exciting and enjoyable instead. I couldn't be happier with how everything turned out, and I'm so grateful for his professionalism, care, and attention to detail. I highly recommend Mervyn to anyone looking for a jeweler they can genuinely trust.

    I reached out on Yelp to ask for a quote to set a pair of loose diamond round earrings in 14k white…read moregold. I was quoted $300 for 1.5 carat total weight. Please keep in mind, at the time of the quote, gold was valued at $5100 per ounce and when I visited, it dropped to $4600 per ounce. I came in, and was told it would be $400-$450 because my total carat weight was in actuality 1.58. I let them know about the estimate I received, to which she angrily said, this is why I hate it when they do online quotes, because people don't know what sizes they have. And then she also got upset because she doesn't know who gave me the quote because of the way Yelp profiles are set up. My mistake for the sizing, but it's not even a full 1/10th of a carat weight. An extra $100 for 0.08. I would understand an increase relative to the weight, had it been 2 total carat weight, that's completely reasonable at half a carat per $100. She said it costs $200 to source the settings, and it doesn't include the labor to polish and clean the item. She started stuttering when she was trying to justify the pricing, so I knew she was lying. A quick google search tells you differently, and they have access to warehouse pricing, so let's be real, she chose to arbitrarily charge more because she felt like it. I left and went with another local jeweler, where they gave me the exact same setting for $300. Don't take what they tell you at face value, do your own research, and make sure you don't get swindled by this business trying to take advantage because they think you don't know any better.

Just like any curious jewelry enthusiast, I explore jewelers and designers, yet none stand out as greatly as Burbank Jewelry Outlet. Prices are fair, design work is impeccable. What I also appreciate is that they will tell you when something is unrealistic. Not every wish is recommended by a professional of their craft and I respect them for that and always being informative. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
