I had my wedding ring reset at Tashne's years ago and Kirk did an amazing job. I always highly recommend Tashne's to friends and neighbors. Kirk does a great job and his prices are always fair. read more

Kirk recently made a ring for my wife and we could not be more thrilled. He is so experienced, knowledgable, and trustworthy. If I ever had any questions he was very responsive on the phone and email. He wanted to make sure everything was absolutely perfect for my wife, he even made a 3-D printed model so she could see the exact style and size before starting to work on the ring. The whole process was quick and seamless and we would both highly recommend JBT to anyone. Thank you, Kirk! read more

Kirk does amazing work - I have had him work on two pieces of jewelry for my granddaughter and both were lovely and original.

Kirk was so helpful sizing my rings and sourcing a gemstone for me. He is very knowledgable and gave me a very fair price. I couldn't be happier with the end result. read more

My fiance worked with Kirk to use a family diamond for my engagement ring, and he did not disappoint. When it was time for the wedding band, Kirk was extremely knowledgeable and honest with the process, and provided his insight where needed. I love the rings separately, and even more so combined! They are more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. read more

Kurt was very helpful and informed on the jewelry business. They fixed my gold chain that had been broken. Not only is it seamless but he even cleaned the pendant in the ultrasonic cleaner. I'm very happy with the quality of the work as well as the price I was charged. Count me as a happy customer read more

We recently stopped in to Jewels by Tashne and were welcomed in by Kirk. He asked what brought us in and my husband started sharing that he had purchased my first engagement/wedding ring from Jewels by Tashne 26 years ago and that we were now looking for an "upgrade". The three of us started talking about many things. Kirk spent a lot of time with us upfront to thoroughly understand our personalities, what it was that we were looking for and most importantly what ring design we were envisioning. Kirk then started showing us some samples based on our ask and let me try several on. Through the process of elimination, we chose a ring design that we really liked however, we wanted a few small customizations. Kirk was confident that what we were envisioning was easily achievable and let us know that he would work with his designer to provide us with a sketch of the ring. Over the course of the next few weeks, Kirk spent more time with us to share the sketches and after a couple iterations, we landed on the final design of the ring. Kirk then started asking us about the diamond as well as educating us on the details of sourcing a diamond that would match our desires. Within the next week, Kirk sourced a beautiful diamond and brought us back in to show us. We confirmed that we could move forward with customizing the ring and setting the diamond. Throughout the entire process Kirk was patient, spending a lot of time with us to bring our vision to reality. Kirk delivered a high-quality ring that we LOVE, it's gorgeous! Kirk is passionate about his business with a sincere desire to understand and please his clients. Thank you, Kirk! read more

I recently had custom opal earrings designed and fabricated at this fine jewelry store. Kirk and Brooke obtained beautiful and unusual fiery opals, and helped me pick the right sizes for the design, 6 stones in all. Everything was ready (at short notice) in time for my daughter's special birthday and the earrings were beautifully presented. It was so much fun, with Kirk's expert guidance, to see my idea go from a concept to a reality! Highly recommended! read more

My engagement ring couldn't be more perfect! My fiancé chose Jewels by Tashne for my ring, and he was so pleased with the service they provided. They helped him design the setting and gave him so much thought and care in this process! They truly had our best interest at hear, and the final product came out better than we could've imagined! read more

Kirk and Meredith are extremely knowledgeable and helpful! My family has been going to Jewels by Tashne for years and we've thoroughly enjoyed working with them. read more

After a lot of research and checking with 7 other jewelers, I settled on my purchase of a significant piece of jewelry with Kirk at Jewels by Tashne. I have to say, it was a surprisingly enjoyable experience. Kirk took a lot of time helping me find exactly what I had been searching for and never pushed. I ended up with a higher quality diamond than I thought I could afford and at very fair pricing. Kirk truly loves what he does, and it shows in his relationship building with clients. Having a trusted jeweler is a rare find these days and truly appreciated! read more

By far one of the weirdest/creepiest experiences I've had. Don't waste your time like I unfortunately did.

I can not speak highly enough about Kirk the owner. I spoke with him numerous times about recommendations on how best to sell my daughters engagement ring. Kirk spent a lot of time educating me on the best process for selling the ring and helping us with putting a value on the ring itself. He had nothing to gain with helping me and my daughter but, was so caring and thoughtful in his advice and directing us in what would be best. If you are looking for an honest, thoughtful and very informative jeweler I highly recommend Kirk at Jewels By Tashne. I am very grateful for all his information he shared with us. read more

Superior selection and service. I really appreciated the expertise, patience and craftsmanship that my mother and I experienced at Tashne. Kirk Tashne assisted her in selecting an exquisite, one of a kind diamond ring and educated us both in the process. He also re-set my grandmother's diamond for me and it is perfect. I am so happy! He is clearly passionate about this business, fair, and has an artistic eye so if you want something special it's a great place to shop. read more

OUTSTANDING quality and customer service! Here's the story: In late 2002, I drove to Tashne, quite a distance from North Orange County, because Jewels by Tashne has engagement rings by famous designer, Michael Beaudry, which we decided to purchase. Kirk Tashne gave me personal service that was simply outstanding. The first step was to choose from the selection of sapphires, which was beautiful. We had decided to go with a light blue sapphire, not the ubiquitous deep blue. The ring is flanked by beautifully cut stillette diamonds on the sides of the ring, along with many small diamonds. The detail is astounding! In early 2003, upon being presented the completed ring, I thought it was the most beautiful ring I had ever seen. I proposed to my fiancee, and presented the ring to her. We've been married now 16 years. Three months ago, she lost the ring! We searched frantically for days and weeks, but could not find it. After we received the insurance payment, we wanted to replace it, and knew there was only one company to do it: Jewels by Tashne. So, SIXTEEN YEARS after we bought the Beaudry engagement ring, we went back to the same jeweler, Tashne, and they remade it to the exact specs as the first, with one exception: we decided--upon presentation of the beautiful sapphires from which to choose--to select a medium blue stone, with a more intense hue. OMG! BREATHTAKING!!! When we first laid eyes on the new ring, we thought it was a Hollywood CGI effect, as the sapphire and diamonds were glistening beyond anything we'd ever seen. We highly recommend Jewels by Tashne, as the selection, quality and customer service are unmatched! read more

I hope that my review does justice for the incredible experience that my husband and I had working with Kirk and Meredith at Jewels by Tashne. We wanted to work with a family owned jewelry store where we would feel listened to, instead of a big corporation where we would simply be sold jewelry by a salesman. We feel so lucky that we walked into Jewels by Tashne. We first met Kirk and Meredith when I needed my engagement ring resized. They did a beautiful job with my resizing, and did so at a very reasonable price, so months later when it was time to start looking at wedding rings we knew exactly where to go. Kirk took time to listen to us with what we were looking for, and worked with our modest budget. Kirk takes the time to really teach you about the jewelry that you are investing in. He is a true craftsman in every sense of the word and has an abundance of knowledge. We also felt that we could completely trust Kirk, which is very important when buying and repairing rings!! Our wedding rings from Jewels by Tashne are absolutely stunning and fit perfectly (thanks to Kirk's diligence with the sizing). They are exactly what we were hoping for. Every time we entered the store we were greeted like old friends. Meredith is an absolute delight and was also extremely helpful during our ring buying experience. If you are looking for an outstanding local, family owned business for repairs and ring shopping then you should go to Jewels by Tashne! Thank you Kirk and Meredith for the care and incredible experience you gave us! read more

Kirk Tashne really helped me out with an engagement ring. I came in with an idea he listened and provided feedback that made the overall idea even better. He didn't try to oversell, he was a man of his word and I felt very comfortable leaving my precious stones in his store for a little while. True professional, if you need good service for jewelry this is your place. read more

In early March of 2020 I made a visit to Jewels by Tashne on a recommendation by a friend with the hopes of working with Kirk to design a ring for my soon to be fiance. After a wonderful first meeting with Kirk, I was emboldened that this process was going to be fun and unique! Little did I know that the world would go into a state of lock down and with it my hopes of proposing to my wonderful girlfriend. In early April, as a last hope of keeping my plan alive to propose to my girlfriend in June, I sent an email to Kirk to see if anything could be done. I received an immediate email and then soon after a phone call and our design process began! Kirk was very helpful and knowledgeable in the design process and had an answer for every question I had. He and I designed this unique ring all over the phone remotely! Kirk made sure to check in at least once a week to make sure I knew where we were at in the process and to answer any more questions I had. Kirk offered suggestions to the design only when I asked for his opinion and if I did not ask, he just helped to create my vision. In the end a beautiful, unique, engagement ring was created just in time to propose to my now fiance in June! I am not sure that any of this would have been possible without working with Jewels by Tashne and Kirk himself. I will always recommend Kirk and Jewels by Tashne to anyone looking for custom or premade jewelry! read more

Jewels By Tashne - Jewelry Near Me - Del Mar, California

Family-owned and Honest Business This business is owned and operated by Kirk Tashne. Kirk really takes his time to make sure that I am making the right decisions about my Jewelery even if its not the most expensive option. I recently had them repair my engagement ring by adding extra gold to the prongs that hold on the center stone, Other Jewelers told me that I needed an entire new "head" on my setting and it was going to cost double what Kirk quoted me. I'm very happy with the result as always. I've been a customer since 2007 and highly recommend this store and staff. read more

Kirk and his staff are like having a jeweler in the family. I brought in my grandmother's damaged and very modest engagement setting. Kirk helped me redesign the piece for a reasonable price, restoring for me an heirloom. I have my grandmother with me every time I wear the ring. No repair is too small, all are treated with the same honesty, care and professionalism. A true neighborhood business based on family values. read more

The service at this Family owned Jewelry Business is superb and always personal and caring. In addition, Kirk is ready to explain the finest details of the service and about the quality of stones, settings, workmanship, to put you at rest with your valuable purchases. I have used Tashne for several years, in repair of treasured pieces as well as always attention to my engagement ring for maintenance. Most recently, Kirk redid a setting for my wedding ring that is more stunning, and affordable than the original. I find that the advice is from hard won experience and proper accreditations, and always honest. I highly recommend this jeweler for all your fine jewelry needs. read more

Went in here to get a tennis bracelet fixed and they offered to clean my (very) dirty rings for free. They couldn't have been nicer and I trusted them from the beginning. My ring has never sparkled so much! I now am going to make it at least a monthly habit going there to get my rings cleaned. I also told my husband about their lovely jewelry selection...wink! read more

I am visiting in Del Mar from Michigan. I broke my gold chain that I have worn for 40+ years. I went to Jewels by Tashne and Kirk took care of me. He was professional and included the jeweler in his advise to me. I authorized the repair. It was done professionally and in a timely manner. My necklace looks as good as new. I highly recommend this business. read more

Other people have called Kirk a man of his word, and it's true. He's also a man of vast knowledge and taste -- and so is Meredith. Well, she's not a man, but you get it. I went in looking for an engagement ring, having a bit of a limited budget and no idea how engagement rings work. Kirk walked me through every step. The ring was ready the next day, cleaned twice (he had me inspect it with his eyepiece, as he had every other piece we'd looked at) and in a beautiful box. Excellent service, fair pricing, and a hell of a ring. read more

If you are looking for personal attention from a craftsman, not a sales guy, this is the store for you. I was so impressed with not only the service, but also the level of diamond knowledge. When I was in the store, another customer told me with a big smile that this was where her husband bought her engagement ring 20 years ago. read more

I had a great experience working Kirk and Meredith on the purchase of a new Rolex watch (my first luxury watch purchase). They were helpful, extremely knowledgeable and went out of their way to help guide me through the process. I have made some other jewelry purchases from them in the past as well which were also very positive experiences. I have 100% confidence in Kirk and Meredith and strongly recommend them to other potential customers. They are a class act. read more

Buying a heirloom gift of jewelry for someone special can be an investment of time, money and trust. Kirk, his dad and Meredith at Jewels By Tashne were wonderful to work with. I enjoyed the experience from start to finish, and am thrilled with the quality and design of the piece.

Above all, he carefully guided me to make the right choices for what I wanted, and treated me fairly in the process. I was looking for a jeweler in whom I could trust, and be confident and secure. I found this in Kirk and Jewels By Tashne. read more
