    My (now fiancée) and I came in just starting the process of looking for an engagement ring and had the best experience one could possibly have. Giovanna was so knowledgeable and personable it was great. She showed us some options and within a week had a diamond that my fiancée had to have. The whole process so seamless and to easy. If I could give a 10 star review I would. I was a little overwhelmed with looking for an engagement ring but Giovanna made it so simple and enjoyable. I can't wait to see what we can come up with for our wedding rings. Her and her staff are incredible, she also beat every other jeweler's price dramatically.

    I found myself needing to get a few rings resized and an heirloom pearl necklace restrung and I am so grateful that I walked into Giovanna's on a rainy day. Nathan took his time making sure that each ring was the perfect size (no small feat, considering two are stacked on top of each other) and I left feeling expertly cared for. So far, turnaround time has been quick, the pricing fair, and communication has been excellent -- I genuinely cannot recommend Giovanna's enough and the rings fit like a dream!

    So thrilled with working with Giovanna in getting an engagement ring! My partner really just told me what cut she wanted but nothing about the setting/band, etc. Giovanna walked me through all options and educated me on what to look for in a Diamond. Was able to put a simple but very beautiful ring together and she made the process painless and hassle free. My NOW fiancé absolutely loves her ring. I'll also add how helpful her assistant Bella was in all communication as well. Thanks ladies!

    Summary: shady under-the-table payment, they did not do an appraisal I paid for, and (worst, IMO) didn't even apologize for not doing the appraisal I went to Giovanna's for my fiance's engagement ring. I had inherited a family diamond, and paid for an engagement setting, the labor of transferring the diamond into the setting, and an appraisal of the diamond. The finished ring came out fine (to my untrained eye, at least), but there were other problems: 1. When I tried paying via credit card, I was told that their credit card reader was broken, and told to instead send a payment to the owner's personal Venmo account. The Venmo amount did not include sales tax (which had been included in the original total I was going to pay via credit card), and I was instructed to "add a random emoji to the description so it doesn't get flagged". I guess it's nice to not pay sales tax (ethics aside), but this made the place start to seem pretty sketchy. 2. When I picked up the ring, there was no mention of the appraisal that I'd paid for. When I asked about the appraisal, Giovanna told me she would do the appraisal after the proposal (which was in a few days). When I asked her why the appraisal hadn't already been done before the diamond was placed in the ring (which is what I asked for, and would have obviously made more sense), she told me that "one of her girls had looked at the diamond" (whatever that means), but that it didn't constitute an official appraisal she "needs to take a picture of the diamond". She said this very casually and without apology, as if not doing appraisals that customers pay for is no big deal. There were a few other suspect things in this conversation: - She said that, when we brought the ring back for the appraisal, she would also need to check on the ring sizing (even though we had already done a ring sizing at Giovanna's) and perform a diamond cleaning (why didn't you clean the diamond before it was in the ring, or if that costs extra, have told me then to consider paying for a cleaning?) - She suggested, multiple times, that I not come back with the ring for the appraisal(+sizing+cleaning), but rather just my fiance come back with the ring. I suspect she suggested this because she believed that my fiance by herself would be a more pliable customer than the two of us together (she mentioned showing my fiance wedding bands); in any case, it came across as manipulative. Definitely would not recommend. (Attaching a photo of my invoice to demonstrate I'm a real customer, and a screenshot of the Venmo payment to demonstrate I'm not making it up.)

    14kt gold, 7.5mm wide, step edges of yellow (1.5 mm each), and 4.5mm in the middle of white. Flat outside, light comfort fit inside.

    Great to work with. Decided to custom order a band for our 15 year vow renewal after losing my original wedding band of 12 years a couple years ago. Worked with Bela who patiently walked me through options as I deliberated. Good email communication. Sent my a diagram of a couple iterations until I was happy with what we settled on. Turn around time from their custom jeweler was excellent. Ring arrived in beautiful condition. Might increase the size slightly which they will do for free, plus free cleanings for life. Would definitely recommend.

    Engagement and wedding band ring.

    We've known Giovanna for 25 years, My husband bought my engagement ring With Giovanna and this month my husband upgraded my diamond. I still love my ring And I will not change it for anything else. My ring turned out looking more beautiful than ever! Pictures can't really show how beautiful really is.

    Diamond engagement + wedding ring (etched w/wedding date & husband's Chinese zodiac), 2 diamond bands & triple diamond bracelet.

I asked how many diamonds were loose, and they said they didn't have that information. I'm just a bit shocked that an established place doesn't have service reports for repairs? I feel like that's standard when you get work done on anything. I just feel like it was a little scammy because they didn't have a report AND couldn't tell me how many diamonds were loose and which ones. I'm sorry to say they lost my business and I'll have to search elsewhere for repairs and for a future engagement ring.

We appreciated the help we received from Elena and Darya who were kind and pleasant to work with. However, our interaction with Fanya was off putting and left us feeling uncomfortable.

But recently two men who were working when I visited to drop off and pick up my ring were surprisingly sloppy: in manner and in wrinkled, ill-fitting clothes. Employees of luxury jewelry stores should represent the quality of products & service in their appearance (so agreed my husband when I wondered if I was being snobby). We might consider another place to have it cleaned in future (I found online that the company and their parent company, Sterling, have had lawsuits and complaints about harassment over the decades and not compensating employees as stated). Switching however would mean if the setting, which has never had damage, does sustain damage or looses a stone, we'd lose the warranty protection. In the past the care was always consistent in getting the diamonds and interior of the setting clean but I'm now being given different information regarding whether or not I should have it cleaned in 10 minutes or leave it overnight(s). This location at least is now called Jared's [by/with?] James Allen (another Sterling brand).

We asked if it would be ready before Valentine's Day and I have it today. It is just gorgeous. The time, communication, and help from Evan made me feel confident that what I dreamed of would come to fruition, on time, and within our price. Everyone here has been a pleasure to work with.
