Gordon James Fine Diamonds - Jewelry Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

I want to leave another review to make things clear for people who are thinking to purchase from this place. If you go to any jewelry store, even a place like shane co, for example, which is a chain jewelry store unlike this place which is a supposed to be a special family owned business, and you purchase a ring from them, when you come in for your annual ring check, they will never question why you need to polish your ring or why you need to tighten a prong, they will do it at no cost, every time, this has always been my experience and is totally normal for jewelry stores and absolutely not the case at Gordon James. They charged a large amount to just polish my ring and tighten a prong, without even telling me ahead of time. It is one thing to charge for severly mishandled jewelry, but for a polish and a prong check, it is obsurd. I regret getting my ring made there because now I will have to go to another place to polish and check my prongs because this place didn't offer me a warranty that any jeweler offers when you purchase a wedding ring. This store has much higher prices so they should be offering better customer service, otherwise what's the point of paying more for bad service. read more

I rarely write reviews, but I would hate for someone to go through the hassle of visiting other shops when I know Gordon James is simply the best. I'm a perfectionist, and the experience and final product were actually perfect. I was told by two other well-known, highly-rated local jewelry shops that that they could not correct the issues with my ring. Thankfully, my appraiser recommended GJ - his choice for custom jewelry settings, repairs, etc. After talking with Dan (very knowledgeable!) and the exceptionally talented jeweler, I discovered that they had the necessary equipment (a highly sophisticated laser) and expertise to address my problems with the ring! The communication with Dan throughout the process was excellent, and the jeweler delivered a perfect, handcrafted result despite the laborious, complex task at hand. I'll never go anywhere else for repairs or custom jewelry - save your time and make GJ your first stop! read more

The jeweler here was incredibly rude and condescending. I am shocked that someone who owns/runs this type of business can speak to potential customers in this manner and think that they can still keep people coming in. Please find elsewhere to go if you would like better customer service. read more

I love this family-owned place! They did such a wonderful job repairing my sapphire engagement ring in a gorgeous new setting and at a good price too--I've gotten so many compliments on it ever since. Also, everyone who works here is super nice and welcoming. I will continue to go here for any jewelry needs in the future! Highly recommend read more

They did a beautiful job repairing my grandmothers delicate opal and diamond ring. They did it faster and for less expensive then quoted. They also were so great about another old delicate garnet ring I brought it to be cleaned. Unfortunately because of how old it is, it cannot go into the cleaner machine, however they gave me a cleaning pen that really has been working magic on it. read more

I moved to Seattle just over a year ago and had been looking for a jeweler that I felt comfortable with. We needed to replace a wedding band and to have 3 of my rings cleaned. My husband and I visited several jewelers before coming across Gordon James Fine Diamonds. They instantly made us feel comfortable and quickly helped with a replacement band based on what we share we were looking for. I picked up my rings and they look beautiful! I can't wait to see how the wedding band came out since we had it customized. The service here is great and quality fantastic. If you are looking to support local and looking for a jeweler you can trust, I highly recommend stopping in! read more

My fiancé bought my engagement ring here and could not have been happier with his experience. He was having trouble finding what he wanted from other jewelers and Gordon went above and beyond to help him source the diamond he wanted and put it in a custom setting. My fiancé made several visits to the store before making his purchase and Gordon was always helpful and honest. This is obviously a large purchase and my fiancé appreciated having someone like Gordon, who has extensive industry knowledge, offer very candid advice. After we got engaged I got to meet Gordon and Gretchen when I went in to get my ring sized. They were able to size it the same day and were super nice and helpful. We will definitely be back there for future fine jewelry purchases! read more

I recently had a great experience with Matt at Gordon James Fine Jewelry. I went in with a broken chain and a cleaning of my wedding ring. I picked up my ring and chain just 4- 5 days later. My ring looked brand new!! They cleaned and polished it. Matt was amazing and gave me top service. I would defiantly recommend Gordon James Fine Jewelry. Happy customer! read more

Gordon James is very friendly, professional and competitive place to shop for fine jewelry. Upon entry, we were greeted by their diamond specialists with a bright smile. Additionally, to make the visit even better, a treat of hand-rolled caramel was offered to curb our appetite while shopping for diamonds. The specialists are very knowledgeable about the products and are open to building a business relationship with you as opposed to closing a sale. They are also very transparent about the quality of products and insight into the reasonable cost they offer for the same caliber of products offered at other over-bloated marked up jewelry stores. The facility is very clean and perfectly laid out to catch a glimpse of their wide selection. The decor and ambiance matches well in the setting of Old Bellevue. Also check out the chocolate shop next door... amazing! Pay them a visit and they will take care of you! read more

If I could give them more stars I would. Though I didn't make the purchase myself, I was a recipient of THE MOST BEAUTIFUL engagement ring in the world. My fiance chose it himself and knew exactly what I wanted in a ring- he ended up getting me something totally different then I wanted and I could NOT have picked out a better ring myself. It is absolutely perfect and I'm incredibly impressed. It SPARKLES and SHINES like it's trying to make someone go blind. I have plenty of friends with engagement rings and not a single one compares to the QUALITY OF DIAMOND(s) that I have on my finger. Everyone of my friends wants to try it on and say "it's exactly what I want". Unfortunately, it needs to be resized because a size 5 is apparently too big for my finger. I told Gordon and Gretchen how sad I was because I did NOT want to part with my ring for that long.. Gordon told me he would do it as quickly as possible so I wouldn't be without this beauty for more than ONE SINGLE DAY. I have recommended all my friends here shopping for diamonds because these diamonds (and service and owners) are serious quality! read more

My fiancé and I are extremely pleased with the quality and beauty of my custom (emerald cut sapphire in a halo setting) engagement ring made by Gretchen and Gordon. Finding a jeweler you can trust is key when you are spending $$$. My mother knows Gretchen and Gordon and assured my fiancé that they were the best. She was right! My engagement ring is beautiful and one of a kind! I have received nonstop compliments on my ring and my fiancé is so pleased with how it turned out. His parents were impressed when he showed them the engagement ring. The quality is unbelievable and while the ring isn't cheap by any means, it's a terrific value and something I will wear for the remainder of my life. Thank you Gretchen and Gordon! We look forward to designing our wedding bands with you both! read more

I was the recipient of the most amazing engagement ring from Gordon James Fine Diamonds! My fiancé worked with Matt and his experience could not have been better. Matt made him feel so comfortable and made the process so easy. I had previously gone in to tell Matt, Gordon and Gretchen what I liked. What I received was more than I could have imagined!

My wife's birthday was approaching and I wanted to get her something special so I went to Gordon James Fine diamonds. The sales staff were very knowledgable and guide me through the process with care. I settled on a pair of diamond earrings which are stunning, the quality and clearity were outstanding. I could not believe that I could purchase this level of diamonds for such a competitive price. My wife absolutely loves the earrings and I am a happy customer. This is why I prefer to by diamonds and jewelry from real people and not the Internet or a club store. The personal service is "priceless ". Thank you Gordon James Fine Diamonds. read more

Gordon & Gretchen James made me the most stunning diamond engagement ring. It is very unique and very sparkly. It has 3 large emerald cut stones surrounded my smaller stones. My friends are all very complimentary. I went back and bought my husbands custom wedding ring from Gordon as well. I have never seen this ring on anyone else except Gordon himself. The first gift I received from Gordon was diamond earrings. They were are gorgeous and easily worn everyday. I never want to wear anything else. My mother liked them so much she had to get the same pair. I've seen similar pairs but none of them are the quality that Gordon makes. I can't wait to go back. read more

I am blown away by the beauty of my new jewelry. Gretchen is an incredible designer. Gretchen, Gordon and their staff are friendly, trustworthy, and the best. read more

Gordon James really saved my wedding ring! I had a side baguette fall out recently, but was new to the state and didn't know where to go to get it fixed. Sadly, I went to another jeweler in town and they really messed it up. It was a little noticable just looking at it, so I happened into Gordon James one day to get a second opinion. John took a look at it and showed me the repair work under the microscope. I was horified at what a terrible job the other jeweler did and I wanted to cry. I didn't want to go back to the other place since I no longer trusted them, but still didn't know what to do. Gordon himself happened to be there that day and took a look at it. He was so upset about me getting swindled that he immediately took my ring and swore to do a 100x better job. 2 days later I picked up the ring and was so happy with the job he'd done. It looked becautiful again and I can't even describe how happy and relieved that makes me. I highly recommend this jeweler! read more

While vacationing in Seattle over the holidays, my husband surprised me with a gorgeous diamond heart pendant necklace for my upcoming big birthday.

I bought my fiance's engagement ring here and am so happy. Gordon made a beautiful ring, amazing selection of diamonds, friendly staff, overall very nice place.

I look forward to going back to buy the wedding bands. I highly recommend this shop!!! read more

They really know their stuff! They helped me pick out and design a custom engagement ring based on several pictures off the internet and it turned out beautifully. They also did an incredible job helping my fiancee and I design her wedding band. They are extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and most importantly patient. They did not try to push us to do anything, but gave us a wide range of options and suggestions and the final wedding band turned out magnificent! read more

Better than Candy - On my recent trip to Seattle I was delighted that my friend took me to her favorite jewelry store. What a surprise to walk into a beautifully designed store. Of course the main attraction was the elegant and enchanting jewelry. The stones have been carefully hand selected by the owners and the designs are so wearable. Most important was that I found the owners and staff to be knowledgeable, helpful and honest, what more can one ask for. I have already selected my 10-year Anniversary gift (in November). My son and daughter-in-law are expecting a girl in January, and pink diamonds seem the perfect gift for the new Mother. If you want to buy jewelry that has been created with love then this is the store for you. Stephanie S. read more
