This shop has the best customer service that I think I've ever experienced. I don't usually worry that much about how I'm treated by staff who are in CS roles, because I know how exhausting, stressful and dull the work can be. However, the people who work at this shop are so outstandingly kind and helpful that it's worth mentioning. I came here to get a very fine gold chain repaired and to get my watch battery replaced. I ended up needing to get the movement in my watch cleaned after there were still issues with the second hand getting stuck after the battery replacement. The woman working the counter was very clear in advising me and gave me a sense of options and cost before ever compelling me to commit to the work I would get done. We discussed the replacement of the crystal on the watch face and she recommended that I see how the other repairs went first, to ensure that the watch could be made to function properly first. It's simple stuff, but I really felt that I was being given respectful advice. I also watched the same woman interact with an elderly lady who came in looking for a particular address, which turned out to be in the building, but required her to go on a bit of an adventure to find it. The woman working here went out of her way to help this elderly woman find her way - it was very sweet. read more

returned a $2400 ring that looked not at all like the designer item I gave them. I'm not even sure it's the same ring! I'm having the ring looked over by a Le Vian dealer in a few days as I think that the brown diamonds my ring had have been replaced with I don't know what. read more

The team at IG were quick to respond, super helpful and all around professional. Linda helped me so much with design and seeing my engagement ring through and my fiance loved it ! read more

We commissioned these rings as a custom piece based on my favorite movie "Howl's Moving Castle". Throughout the entire process they provided regular updates. I appreciated being kept in the loop and having the opportunity to make any necessary changes along the way. Once the rings were completed, we realized the ruby stone would be more fitting for me so we asked if it was possible to switch it. They were so kind to make this change for us even though the rings were already finished. The final product is absolutely stunning. The craftsmanship is impeccable, and the attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the ring. They had truly brought our vision to life, and I am beyond thrilled with the end result. Overall, I highly recommend Independent Goldsmith for anyone looking for a custom piece of jewelry. They truly care about their customers and take great pride in their work. I would not hesitate to work with them again in the future! read more

Took my 2.7 ct platinum engagement ring here May 8th 2015 after searching for the best ring sizing for platinum in Vancouver. I read the reviews that were all 100% positive and that quite a few people have had great results on their ring sizing. The people here are very nice and friendly but as far as their skills in re sizing platinum rings - the job they did on my ring was completely unacceptable. We waited about 2 1/2-3 hours for them to size my ring down 1/2 a size. It went from size 4 to size 3.5 When we picked up the ring - I put it on and the lady said "it's perfect right?!" And I was thinking..no..not quite. I could see a faint line from where it was cut and the area where it was cut was significantly thinner like there had been way too much filed off. I knew it wasn't right but at the same time I thought maybe that's just how it is sometimes. I was disappointed. After speaking to the reputable Jeweler in Toronto that made my custom ring. I told him about the sizing job Independent Goldsmith had done and showed him photos and he was shocked and furious. He said I had been scammed and that they had overcharged us, "forgotten" a few steps, used a torch not a laser(which is a must for platinum), didn't show us the ring under a magnifier after the job so that we'd be able to see the laser engraving on the main stone(it's rare but jewellers do swap diamonds, mostly round and Princess cut diamonds), that the band should look perfect as if it were never resized and there should not be a visible line or thinness of the band. Now, I had realized how my beautiful ring had been so badly butchered and I was realllly upset. Honestly I didn't even want to wear my ring anymore and was thinking of getting the whole band redone to remedy this mess. After a few days I decided I'd just live with these cosmetic issues on the bottom of the band until I could find a better Jeweler. About 3ish weeks after I had it sized it felt like my finger was shrinking because my ring was spinning around my finger all the time. I looked underneath and it was completely split open. The part that they cut and tried to fuse back together had come undone. I called Independent Goldsmith back and spoke with the Jeweler and he said "that doesn't happen to me very often" and I asked if he would be able to fix it and use a laser and fix the unevenness in the band. He said yes. I asked if I would be charged and he sounded hesitant but he did say he wouldn't charge me. I decided not to go back there since they couldn't do it properly the first time and found a different Jeweler in downtown Vancouver and went the next day. The difference in knowledge and professionalism was night and day. The new Jeweler saw my ring and said that it was an amateur job. They showed me the ring under a microscope and showed how Independent Goldsmith used white gold instead of platinum(bigger profit), we could see the clear colour change. They were confused as to why Independent Goldsmith cut my band more to the side and not in the middle. They showed me a badly chipped diamond in the halo and said that it's likely Independent Goldsmith chipped the diamond because it was beside the band and were probably not careful when hammering. I started wearing my ring April 13 2015. I had my ring resized with Independent Goldsmith May 8 2015 and the new Jeweller noticed the chipped diamond yesterday June 5 2015. It's not like I'd been wearing the ring for months or even a year. Even though it's a small diamond...it's still my engagement ring which is special and a VS diamond. If I go to someone that's supposed to specialize in creating, fixing/repairing jewelry I'd expect it to come back better - not worse. The new jeweller said you should never be able to see the line of where it was cut and there should never be unevenness and it should look perfect, I was overcharged and that I should go back and ask for my money and the platinum that was cut out. And they mentioned they've fixed a number of resizing jobs done by Independent Goldsmith. In the end they fixed the break and there is no line of where it was once cut - they tried their best to fix the unevenness in the band and you can now barely tell the difference in width, they polished the ring for me and it all only cost me $150 as opposed to $180 at Independent Goldsmith. I decided not to go back and get my $180 - why? I'd rather leave an accurate review of what happened to me and their skills/quality of work in re sizing platinum rings and what I had to go through instead of getting the $ back so that people will be able to make a more informed decision instead of seeing all the 100% positive reviews like I did and go there. I am not saying that every platinum ring sizing job they do ends up like this - but it happened to me read more

I did the ring adjustment and it was done beautifully. Loved their work. You can trust them.

I'd recommend Tony over and over again. He is absolutely incredible and we are so happy we picked him to work on our engagement ring. We kept an open mind when looking for a jeweller to create our dream ring and decided to come by Independent Goldsmith after reading the glowing reviews online and we're so glad we did! The store doesn't look like much from outside but upon chatting with Tony for just a brief few minutes, we could tell he's been doing this for many years and still have the passion for helping couples make the rings of their dreams. We came with a picture of the ring we tried on elsewhere and together with Tony, we were able to get it customized to our exact liking. Tony picked out a few gems for us to choose from and even when we weren't sure if we liked any of them, he went to get a few more from other places. He invited us to the back office and even stayed behind after hours too to make sure we're happy with the design. We never felt rushed or pressured at all. In fact, he made the whole process so enjoyable - something we didn't expect! Tony involved us in every step of the process and he made the ring in under 2 weeks and the ring is absolutely flawless. It's exactly what we imagined it to be and more! It's perfectly fitted to my finger and I couldn't stop looking at it. We'll definitely be back to get his help for our wedding bands. Thanks a lot, Tony! read more

I looked all over Vancouver and Calgary for a skilled goldsmith to resize my Cartier love men's ring in platinum. Because of the screw pattern on the ring it can be a tricky job and most places had recommended cutting a chunk out, which would result in an uneven pattern. Price wasn't a concern for me and I was simply searching for the best person to do the best job with my wedding band. Little did I know the best person to do the job was located only a few blocks from my house! Tony suggested sizing the ring with pressure. A method I had discussed with other places where they had told me it was too tricky to attempt. Tony said he has had much experience doing this in the past and expressed great confidence. The end result was perfect! It looks flawless and everything was intact! Looks showroom new... But a half size smaller! Even all of the lettering on the back remained perfect. Service was same day as well, which was a big plus. Many of the other stores I contacted required a week or two of holding the ring in addition to a few weeks of clearing out any backlog. Thank you for the great work! Will definitely be back and recommend others. read more

Let me start of by saying I am a very picky person and many times I am hard to please... but Tony gets five stars! Tony made my custom rose gold engagement ring, custom white gold wedding band, and my fiancé also bought his wedding band and another diamond ring (push present) for me out of the case of Tony's store. We don't have my wedding band yet but I picked up my engagement ring a couple of weeks ago and I can't stop staring at it! Even when I'm driving!! My fiancé and I are not a traditional couple and he wanted to make sure that for the years to come I would be wearing a ring I absolutely love. So he gave me his credit card (with a budget) and we went to see Tony after reading other Yelp reviews. I must have drove Tony crazy with all my indecisions and changes. (Plus I emailed him like a million pictures of rings I found online. Turns out I like a lot of diamond ring designs.) All he kept saying to me was he wanted me to be happy with the ring. After a few weeks (yes weeks!) and a lot of emails back & forth, I finally decided on a design and we brought in our own center diamond, which is a family heirloom (but Tony did show us other diamond options). Tony emailed a rendering of the design for me to approve and then he got to work. When I dropped off the center diamond and when I picked up my engagement ring, each time Tony showed me under his microscope the serial number of my diamond so I could be sure of no diamond swapping. And Tony resized my fiancé's yellow gold wedding band perfectly. We feel very lucky to have found him. read more

My fiancé and I got engaged just before Christmas and his parents handed him a lovely family heirloom ring. The centre stone was his great grandmother's and sparkles like the stars. When his parents got engaged, they redesigned the ring with a matching set of wedding bands. The ring was handed down to Jeff and he proposed with this ring. Its truly lovely, however, was a but too snug for me, even in the winter. We knew we'd have to get it resized. Our engagement ring actually came with matching men's and women's wedding bands. However, we decided to get new wedding bands as the men's band was an odd shape. We purchased a very modern diamond channel wedding band for myself and thought that in a few years, we would redesign the ting to match it. We (or I should say Jeff) did some extensive research prior to deciding to go with Independent Goldsmith. After reading the reviews, we decided to visit Tony. He met with us as we showed him the ring and brought the old matching wedding bands, along with my new wedding band, just in case. We told him of our initial ask to resize the ring but also wondered if they did do custom re-designs. He looked at the ring and said that we could reuse the gold from the rings and take out the smaller stones (6 in total from the original engagement ring and wedding bands) to have a channel set design to match my new wedding band. We set out a very classic design and we shared that we wanted to keep it very simple and classic. We didn't want the setting too high and the clamps of the centre diamond to be too large. He assured us that he knows our vision. All in all he only charged the labour fee, which was quite affordable! He had given us a three week timeline at which we shared that we would have an engagement photos in two weeks. He said it wasn't a problem! We left the shop quite pleased and couldn't wait. A week goes by and finally we heard from Tony. He had sent us a rendering of the ring. We noticed that the setting was quite high and expressed our concern. He immediately called back and said not to worry about that as the rendering over compensating his final design. We came in on the Sunday to pick up our ring and was just blown away. Tony did such an amazing job and the ring matched my wedding band to a 'T'! I couldn't stop staring at it (a month later and I still get side tracked at work). The setting really accentuated the centre diamond and it sparkles even more. We are so pleased with the efforts and work of Tony's and we're so pleased. We showed it to Jeff's parents and grandmother in the evening, and let me tell you that Nanna couldn't stop crying through her smile! Thank you, Tony! read more

We worked with Tony and his partners on both of our wedding bands and they did an ABSOLUTELY amazing job. Far surpassed our expectations. And their prices was very competitive and well worth the quality that you get! He accommodated me in making a last minute change to my band where I switched out 4 of the diamonds on the back for sapphires (blue is my favourite colour). He did this on time and with no problems. I would hands down recommend Tony to anyone who is wanting to get custom jewellery! He was so fabulous to work with and his work is outstanding. read more

Terrible goldsmith with poor workmanship. After being guaranteed a ring fitting for free after creating my wife's wedding ring, the guy tried to charge me. There were impurities in the gold he used and the work was very poor. Don't waste your money here, go to a real goldsmith. read more

Tony is THE best in town! I found Independent Goldsmith on Yelp and was impressed with 5 stars across the board. My engagement ring was too big so I called in and asked how much it would be to resize and how long it would take. He quoted me at a reasonable price and said it would take about 1.5 hours. I thought it was too good to be true because some places take weeks! So I went in after work the same day I called and met Tony and the other lovely staff. He measured my finger, provided a quote, and asked me to come back in an hour or so. Came back and the ring fit absolutely perfectly! It was so beautiful and sparkly since he polished it thoroughly. Very happy with his work. If you're looking to get your ring resized, look no further. Tony is your guy, you won't be disappointed. read more

They repair watches but they do charge a decent amount for simple repairs! To install a strap provided was $5 simple task like 1min. For the strap pins which one were too large were an extra $5 ughhh. $5 extra = $10 in total. just be upfront on costs as Much got jewellers who'll do this for free. read more

The engagement ring process is a funny thing: You save up thousands of dollars to buy something you know nothing about, you hope the girl likes it and says "yes", but most importantly, you pray she doesn't lose the giant ring you bought since you are terrible at eyeballing finger sizes. It took me nearly a whole year to save up for my (now) fiance's engagement ring and keep it a secret - unfortunately, she kept her ring size a secret from me for even longer! Needless to say she said yes, but of course the ring was too big. Considering I had purchased the diamond online and had it shipped directly to a jeweler in California to have the ring custom-made, I was already a little nervous how many hands this very expensive investment had been through. And because I was living with my girl, I immediately gave it to my mom for safe-keeping until I was ready to pop the question so I had no time to have it appraised. Now we had to trust yet one more company with this thing to get resized and hope I didn't somehow get scammed. Thankfully, I had all of my documentation so we simply needed to have a jeweler show us the teeny-tiny serial number they inscribe on every diamond. Of course, my fiance decided to drop her ring off at Independent Goldsmith out-of-the-blue one day with zero paperwork. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! When I explained to her that she proooobably shouldn't have left her multi-thousand dollar custom-made ring in the hands of a complete stranger without verifying the serial number before and after the process, I could see the look of realization come over her face. I'm glad I wasn't the only one that didn't know what I was doing! Thankfully, our worries were all for naught. Though it took them some time to find the inscription, the diamond was verified, they were very patient with her, made sure she was satisfied with the resizing, gave her a great price and had everything done within a couple of hours. Mission accomplished. Now we just have to plan a wedding. It can't be that hard, right? read more

This is an addition to an earlier review I did. Took in a necklace to just get a larger ring installed for the clasp to grab onto. The work was swift. I would just suggest that if you go in, it's preferable to deal with the older gentleman or the younger guy (who is probably his son) On this second occasion, I was serviced by the older woman who was just all business. When I patronize a small family run shop (which I always like to support), I expect to be treated like my choice is appreciated and to have a friendly greeting. She did repeatedly (3 times) ask me if I wanted to buy anything and I said no, I just wanted to get the necklace fixed. Then she asked if I needed a new ring ("Just on sale from today!"....riiiggghhhtt...), when I said No, it was "...bracelet?" then "...something for the husband?" I was getting annoyed at this persistence, especially since none of it was delivered in a warm, friendly manner. I'll return to this place when I need to, but I'll ask for the older gentleman to deal with. read more

These guys are so nice and good at what they do. We had our wedding bands sized here, and they did an excellent job. My ring was so shiny afterwards that I almost didn't recognize it. I also wanted to buy something very specific for a friend, but they didn't have it in store, so they ordered several pieces for me from a supplier so that I can go in and pick the one I liked. Not to mention they always seem to have good sales on, so I got myself a little gift too while getting a gift for my friend. Would definitely go back. read more

I was anxious about getting my ring resized after reading several horror stories and decided on Independent Goldsmith based on Brian S.'s review as well as the fact that Tony was willing to resize my ring same day, while I waited. Independent Goldsmiths was previously named Elite Goldsmiths, but the previous owner moved and Tony, who had worked with the previous owner, took over. The entire process took about 45 minutes, where Tony checked the prongs on my ring to make sure the stone wasn't loose, sized my finger, and then got to work sizing it down one full size and replating it with rhodium. He charged me $45+tax, which was very, very reasonable. I'll definitely be returning if I need any servicing done on my jewelry. read more

I purchased a custom made tennis bracelet online from another jeweler for my girlfriend's birthday and even after measuring her wrist it came a little bigger than she wanted. Independent Goldsmith was able to remove the extra links with absolutely no sign that it had been modified and they provided the extra bits in a bag in case she wants to use them for ear rings or something else. I was very nervous since the item was custom made but they did great work. My girlfriend was very happy with the work they did and the staff were friendly and helpful! Will definitely use them again! read more

Tony did a great job on both repairing and creating some custom jewelry. He was very professional and the product was great. He also didn't charge for some minor work we did alongside it. I'll definitely go back. read more

I bought myself this beautiful, fun, dangly necklace for $30 and broke it the second time I wore it! I assume it's gold plated but wasn't too sure if I would get disapproving looks taking my "cheap" Jewelry to a nice jewelry store in hopes of repair. I was greeted with a warm and friendly smile, and when I asked for repair of my chain she said "No problem, $15!" I commented on how it was inexpensive Jewelry but I really loved it. She complimented my jewelry saying it was very pretty and said I could wait for 15mins for a quick repair. I think they did it in 10 minutes. The lady working the counter even reminded to get a stamp so I didn't have to pay for parking on exit!! Great customer service! read more

We came thanks to the many positive reviews on yelp and left completely impressed and grateful. Tony demonstrates the highest level of competence we could've asked for with speed and integrity. He and his lovely wife supplied us with perfect wedding bands for us. Instead of making mine custom (as we almost did) he was able to fit a new band to my existing engagement ring perfectly. Not only that, but he reset/ revived my engagement ring to sparkling new. All for a great price! Discounts + free service. (My fiance also spotted his watch at a lower price than he paid elsewhere.) Highly recommended. Couldn't be happier. read more

I had several pieces of jewelry that I no longer wore and took them to see if Tony could redesign them into rings that were more functional & modern. Together, we designed two David Yurman-inspired rings. One is a gold and multicolor sapphire "confetti" cocktail ring (formerly a wide 18k gold band and sapphire pendant). The other ring is a white/yellow gold criss-cross diamond ring (formerly diamond earring jackets). Tony innovatively figured out how to transform the pieces I already had and gave me very fair pricing on any additional gold needed. He made wax models of his designs and checked in with me often during the process. When asked to tweak the design more to my liking, Tony was very professional and happy to accommodate. As you can see from the photos, the rings Tony produced are beautiful! Tony well deserves every one of his 5-star reviews for his craftsmanship and well-run business. I will be using Tony again the future... he is the type of jeweler that one can craft a trusting relationship with! read more

Great experience. I took a 30 year old ring in to be resized, and it was done in-house while I waited. When it was done, it looked brand new and fit perfectly. Staff was friendly and profesional.

Tony's combination of skill, knowledge, and superb customer service makes his business a rare gem in the city. I was having a hard time finding the right matching wedding band for my rose gold/morganite engagement ring. In the end I figured it would be best to just get it custom made. I found Tony through Yelp and after reading all the great reviews I decided to visit his store for a consultation. I showed Tony a picture of a ring I liked and he was able to create a unique rendition that was a perfect fit for my e-ring. Prior to placing a deposit with him, I had actually consulted 2 other jewelers in downtown (who also had great reviews on Yelp), but Tony's friendliness and unpretentiousness were what really won me over in the end. Not to mention, his prices are very reasonable for the value and excellent craftsmanship you get. Having validated parking at City Square also made the in-progress visits less of a hassle. Tony was able to complete my project much earlier than anticipated and he even polished my e-ring before returning it to me. I don't know how he did it, but it shines even better than the first day I had it. I will be sure to drop by his store again before my big day to get the rings polished. Please do not be deterred by the one bad review. I went with my gut instinct to visit Tony and he is the only person I trust to handle my rings now. read more

Words cannot express how much I love my custom engagement ring! It was my wedding anniversary and I decided to have my ring reset. I have a 1 carat princess casted in 19k white gold. It is absolutely stunning! Tony custom made my dream ring! "I always do my best" says Tony he really does! He ensures every customer leaves happy and reassured me a worry free transaction! He emailed me the digital design, , then called me in after the wax was made and finally to try it after the gold was casted. I am so lucky to have met Tony and I will recommend all my friends and anyone who wants top notch service and craftsmanship to go see him! He is truly amazing! read more

Amazing service! Thank you Tony and Vicky for being so patient with me. I had 4 rings re-sized and another ring converted to a pendant. Tony recommended re-using the gold from the band to make the pendant clasp to help reduce the cost. Prices were extremely reasonable and the turnaround time was very fast; in fact, two of the rings were re-sized the same afternoon. While I was in the shop, two other customers came in to pick up their custom designed rings and both raved about the workmanship and service. I have already recommended this place to family and friends. read more

Friendly, thorough and fast service! I visited several jewelry stores downtown to find that their hours varied or they didn't repair rings made elsewhere. Independent Goldsmith has business hours you can count on and sized 2 of my grandmother's rings to perfection! Will definitely be going here for all of my jewelry needs. read more

Tony made a beautiful engagement ring for me and my fiancé. He proposed with a simple ring so we could design it together. I brought some drawings and photos from the internet and Tony created a lovely design for us. He uses a 3D CGI program on the computer so he can send pictures of the ring before it's made and even printed a 3D plastic version so I could try it on and adjust the design before the ring was made. His communication was excellent, and the other staff were always friendly and helpful when we came into the store. We are so happy with the final product. Would definitely recommend! read more

Tony was great! My wife had her ring fixed by Tony, he did the fix in a timely manner, the price was very reasonable, and workmanship was great! He seemed to be genuinely interested in getting the ring fixed right. My wife's diamond head broke off the ring while at work. As anyone can imagine, she was very worried about getting it fixed right so it does not happen again! Tony took the time to explain how he would secure the diamond, re-touched the claws and post and told us to come in every 6 months or so, to make sure the diamond is secure. The many positive reviews on yelp helped us find Tony and we're grateful to have found this place! We had gone to Birks for a fix a few months before the diamond head broke off, and they charged us a ridiculous amount for a fix that was in-sufficient and poorly done! Tony is the only person we'd take our ring into from now on! read more

I've had two rings re-sized here, one a family heirloom diamond ring and a casual gemstone ring. They've done great work with a quick turnaround time and I trust them with very expensive and less expensive rings. My only and major dislike have been the ladies at the front counter who you need to discuss what you need done. Both times, they would immediately inspect the ring with their magnifying glass and point out every flaw in an attempt to sell you on more work needed. Without even asking me where I got the ring or what significance it had, the lady immediately told me the ring was "cheap" and that the stones weren't nice. I didn't ask for her opinion nor did I say I wanted to change any stones. I just wanted the rings resized, simple as that. I thought it was unnecessary to say those things, especially if those rings have significance (both do as they have been passed down from loved ones who are no longer here). This is the only reason I may not come back because I find this type of "up sell" strategy unappealing. read more

This place is awesome! I had a custom ring set (2 rings) resized, and as a result, the shapes also had to be modified to ensure the set fit together. I dropped my ring off this morning, and when I picked it up this afternoon, I was ecstatic! The quality and craftsmanship of the finished product is absolutely extraordinary!!! I flew in to the city from up north to have this custom work done, and not only did they do an amazing job, but they did the work in just a couple of hours. At home, I was told that my rings would have to be shipped out and that the work would take about 3-4 weeks to complete (plus shipping time). As a result, I did some research to find an actual goldsmith (one that doesn't ship jewelry away to do the work), and travelled to the city to have the work done, and am so happy I found this place. Needless to say, I am absolutely impressed and will definitely use them again and again!!! read more
