I can't say enough good things about Amir Mozaffarian Fine Jewels, particularly Cynthia. She's been…read moreso kind, professional, and helpful - I adore her. When my boyfriend (Andy) and I were shopping for my engagement ring, we went to all the other jewelry stores in the neighborhood (and then some) looking for the right ring. I am indecisive but I also have pretty specific taste...it wasn't easy for me to find much I liked, let alone something I thought I'd like for the rest of my life! We also had no idea what we were doing, neither of us had any experience buying fine jewelry. I found I ring I loved IMMEDIATELY when we went to Mozaffarian. We also liked that the store is small, and it is very carefully and beautifully curated...other places felt a little overwhelming. Mozaffarian really feels like a family owned business, and there are so few places like that left in San Francisco now. The store is quiet and it's evident from the moment you walk inside that this a place you go when you are SERIOUS about buying a beautiful piece of jewelry (or a Faberge egg! It's fun to look at those) Cynthia helped us the first time we visited the store, and we both felt that she instantly understood what I was looking for, and she made excellent points that helped me decide what I wanted - even Andy couldn't accomplish that :) We were both struck by how knowledgeable Cynthia is, but at the same time how polite and sincere - I have never felt like anyone there was just trying to sell us something, and I can't think of any other retail environment I feel that way about. This is the kind of customer service that is incredibly difficult to find these days: knowledgeable, kind people who are eager and able to help you find exactly what you want. Cynthia and Amir worked with Andy to find the perfect diamond for my ring and I could not be happier. As particular as I was about the setting, Andy was even more particular about the diamond, but they found one that met his standards of cut, clarity, color, and carat. It's exactly what we both wanted and I absolutely love it. A year later I still get compliments on it ALL THE TIME - I always know it's time to get my ring cleaned when no one has commented on it in a few days! Cynthia may be the most eloquent person I've ever held a conversation with, and I always enjoy stopping by to get the ring cleaned and catch up. We're getting our wedding bands there now and we would never have considered going anywhere else, in part because Cynthia's guidance is so valuable. We've had really lovely experiences at Amir Mozaffarian and those experiences make the rings we bought there that much more special.

It's not a super big store, but there seems to be cool things in every display case. Not like the typical jewelry store where you go in and come out feeling like you've wasted your time. The first time we came into this store, we were just strolling by and the window display caught our eye. Since then it has become a "destination" for jewelry occasions. The pieces we bought have been impeccable in quality. The service is always professional and attentive and trustworthy. Great place. Visit them and see for yourself.

She took the time to thoroughly explain how she arrived at her offer, and I felt the pricing was very fair. She even helped me figure out how to receive my payment through Apple Pay, taking extra time to make sure everything worked properly. She also let me know that they offer free appraisals for vintage jewelry, which is a great service to have locally. The Gold Drop is a wonderful small family business, and the location is very convenient with easy parking right on the same block. If you're looking to sell jewelry, watches, or precious metals and want honest, knowledgeable service, I highly recommend The Gold Drop.

They are always very considerate, respectful and caring and always ask if there is anything else they can do to help me.

Replacing watch batteries, resizing rings as my body changes with age, etc. Even so, I am always treated as a valued customer. Their main businesses are estate evaluations and high-end jewelry sales and repairs. Jeff is a certified Master Jeweler and watch repair maven! Janet also has developed her personally designed line of women's fashion and skin creams that are on display and available in the shop. In every instance, their work and their inventory is always a notch above what anyone might have reasonably hoped for in a small town shop. Big job or small, big sale or not, their attitude, professionalism and work product is categorically outstanding. The ring in the photo has been resized there 5 times! Right in downtown Fairfax. If you have a need, check them out!

I have to say I was blown away with the service and craftsmanship of Tim Wallace at the Jewelers…read moreGuild. My wife had a large old ring from her grandma but didn't care for the setting or design etc. I first visited numerous jewelry shop that supposedly did custom work. What I found is that those other shops didn't do the fabrication work themselves, and would outsource that part of the job. Their timelines were 3-6months out and on top of that, they wanted to charge outrageous prices. None of this worked for me as I was trying to surprise my wife for her birthday and I needed this project done in 2 weeks. I'm so lucky to have found Tim as he made time to meet with me immediately, worked with me on customizing the design and in 2 weeks he made it happen!! His rates are very reasonable and working directly with an actual goldsmith/jeweler just made the process so much more streamlined and easy. Thank you again! My wife was so thrilled and will carry the memory of her grandmother with her everyday now.
