i've tried lately to reach out to becky after the denver merchandise mart closed, and jf relocated. i am sorry to learn of barry's passing. after spending over $80-100k in this store, i have yet to receive any reply to messaging, or voice mails from becky. i have some lovely pieces from this business when rick mcgavin was the custom fabricator, and regret my business apparently has no meaning to keep in contact & keep the $$ flowing in (her) jf options direction. am presently looking for a tennis necklace and have some good leads....i gave jf 1st choice, but communication has failed......if no messages were received, past business would deserve follow ups occassionally.....this is productive feedback to not lose touch with good customers. read more

The customer service is beyond comparison... I am having a ring custom designed; and the process couldn't be easier or more convenient. read more

This is a 2 part review. The 1st is that my family and I have gone to JF Options for over 20 years. The staff, Becky and Barry have been terrific. The 2nd is that I referred my brother-in-law to JF to purchase a larger diamond ring to gift my sister for a wedding anniversary. The diamond was purchased, put into a simple setting with the plan for her to select a setting of her choice, which was done. After our grandmother passed, 4 of us went in to have her jewelry appraised. Barry offered to clean my sister's ring. Upon doing so he told her there was a large flaw in the diamond. My sister seldom wears this particular ring (wears only for special occasions). We can't imagine how in the world the diamond developed such a flaw. We've wondered over the years if the actual diamond was switched when it was placed into the new setting. My sister's been heartbroken since she found out. How do owners protect their gems when they leave it with a jeweler. I want to have some gems reset, but am reluctant. What to do.... read more

I found JF Options through a yelp search when my Husband and I were searching for our wedding bands. We purchase my engagement ring through another designer and wanted to checkout a jeweler before we settled on where we would purchase our wedding bands. JF Options was the perfect spot, and we were so happy to have found them. Becky, Barry, and Simi provide such a warm welcome and it truly is a wonderful experience working with them. They are patient and take care to make sure you find a piece you love! For example, I was having a hard time finding a band that worked with my ring, so Becky helped me design the perfect one! Also, once my wedding band came in, Barry wanted to send it back to make sure the stones would stay put. Their attention to detail is incredible. We've been back for other purchases as well. I bought my Mom a 60th birthday necklace that was so unique and took us a while to find. Becky was so patient and provided so many wonderful options for me to choose from. My Husband purchased a necklace for me to wear on my wedding day from JF options as well. It was the perfect necklace and Becky and Simi were so excited to see photos of it after the wedding. They really care about their clients and wish you all the best! I since sent friends and other family members there as well. They are the best and you won't be disappointed! read more

I purchased a custom engagement ring through JF Options and the experience was wonderful all around. My fiancee had sent me several pictures of rings that were for sale online at other retailers. I worked with JF Options to create a custom version that ended up looking way better than the rings my fiancee had shown me. The stones they presented to me were much higher quality and the price was much more reasonable! They even got the ring finished in under 3 weeks so I could propose on a trip we had scheduled. If you are looking for a high quality, affordable, engagement ring, this is your best option! read more

I highly recommend JF Options for anyone needing jewelry for any occasion. Barry & Becky B. are excellent jewelers to work with. They have been in business for 20+ years and were outstanding to work with. When my girlfriend and I discussed engagement rings I was overwhelmed. After speaking with a few other jewelers by phone and email I decided it was best to sit down and discuss From the beginning until the end of our appointment (2 hours at least) Barry & Becky were helpful, patient and answered all of our questions. The ring took a month or so to create. Samantha was always friendly when I asked for updates or needed to make a few decisions on last details. When I picked up the ring in April it was so much better than I could have imagined. The ring was extremely impressive and so unique- exactly what my fiancée (she said yes!) wanted. There are many options when considering jewelry. I know that I have found my long term jeweler in JF Options. Thank you Becky, Barry, Samantha and the rest of the JF Options staff. read more

I don't have enough words to tell you what a pleasure it was to work with everyone at JF Options! My future husband and I had been to at least four places before I was recommended to this wonderful establishment. Becky made everything so easy. She ordered in diamonds from all over the country and we were able to look and see each and every option, within our budget. A very long process made short and easy! We got my ring, set, sized and financed there. We also got our insurance with JF Options!!! An amazing experience and we will be back for May more purchased! read more

Barry was extremely helpful on our search for the perfect ring. From the very beginning, he made sure my fiance was comfortable looking at all the options. He took the time to go over the different diamonds and settings until she found "the one" I would recommend JF Options to anyone looking for a great piece of jewelry at a great value. read more

I brought my engagement ring in for sizing and appraisal since it belonged to my husband's mother (antique!). I also asked them to custom make a wedding band to match the engagement ring as closely as they could. My husband is an engineer and drew the design on graph paper with dimensions, sizing, etc. They originally appraised the ring and were supposed to send a CAD design of the image my husband had drawn so we could review and approve. It took them two weeks just to send the ring and design to the CAD designer. A month went by before I saw anything and when I did I thought it was a joke. The "designer" had drawn something I could have done on my own! It was worthless. In no way did it resemble the beautiful design my husband had drawn. My husband contacted them to complain and they said they would send another design. This time it was a PICTURE of another ring, not a CAD design. The whole experience was miserable. Having to "check in" and "check out" seemed excessive; having to wait in the middle of an appointment while they do other things or help other customers (umm....appointment??). It took another month just to GET my ring back. Then when I went back in to finally get it, they tried to ask me to give them another chance. For what? No thanks. Even after the whole experience was finally over, Barry's wife emailed asking what our favorite restaurant was so they could send us a gift card to make up for the whole debacle....surprisingly, we never received that either?! lol Lies, lies and smoking mirrors! Do yourself a favor and disregard the bullshit five star ratings and go somewhere else! Especially if you have antique jewelry. They have flashy modern stuff, but don't expect a happy ending with your antiques. read more

I worked with Barry and Todd over the phone to create an engagement ring for my soon to be bride. I was recommended to them by family as they did great work and were highly talked about. JF Options was an interesting experience in the beginning as they are very private, an exclusive type relationship with existing customers. Being a new refered customer, I felt like I was treated very kindly. As I recently moved to Grand Junction, CO from Denver, I had to work with them over the phone. I was not able to meet at regularily scheduled hours with 260 miles between us, I had to trust who I was working with. JF Options made these conversations very stress free and really made me feel at ease as I sent an old family's wedding ring to reuse a diamond and gold. So I may have created the interesting experience, I will take responsibility for that. I never met anyone face to face until I picked up the ring a month later at their jewelry store. Todd and Barry worked within my predetermined budget and produced a beautiful engagement ring that my fiance and I both really enjoy. When I went to pick up the ring, I had the pleasure of meeting a third person, Barry's wife. She presented the ring to me, had me fill out some final paper work and shared more details about what JF Options was all about. I never did meet Barry or Todd in person, but I felt very comfortable working with them none-the-less. Thank you so much for creating a dream for my future wife and making the custom ring pleasurable. read more

There is no where else I would recommend in Colorado that could compete with the experience of working with JF Options.

JF Options Jewelers - Engagement ring JF Options - Jewelry Near Me - Denver, Colorado

JF Options was recommended to me in my search for an engagement ring by a previous customer of their's and after working with Barry and Becky I don't plan to purchase rings or jewelry elsewhere ever again. Barry listened to what I was looking for, insisted that I don't compromise or settle and found exactly what I was looking for. He sourced the stone for me and found the perfect setting/band to go with it. My fiancee wasn't looking for a ring, or anything fancy for our engagement, but the ring Barry helped me create helped take her breath away when I popped the question and she wears it proudly every day. Thank you Barry and Becky! read more

My wife and I stumbled across JF Options after reading some reviews online and we are very grateful we did. Barry and Becky, the owners, were incredibly easy to work and were very attentive to our needs, as well as their staff. I primarily worked with Becky through the entire process (engagement ring, wedding band and my wedding band) and just wanted to give her extra kudos for being so very thorough, kind and straight forward. She really made the whole process easy (or as easy as this process can be!), and I would recommend JF Options to anyone reading this. read more

I highly recommend checking out JF Options if you are looking for any type of jewelry. My boyfriend (now fiancé) and I went here to find my engagement ring and I am so glad we did. If you go here, trust me... you won't go anywhere else because you will leave 100% happy. Barry and his wife make you feel like family and don't push you into anything. They really spent their time with us and helped me find the ring I've always dreamed of. read more

My husband and I could not be happier with the product, service, and friendship that Becky and Barry have provided us over the past year. The quality of the product they provide cannot be beat and the prices are very fair. Also, they are a funny and loving husband and wife team who go out of their way to make their customers feel comfortable, they will customize anything and provide you with as much honest knowledge as possible. We will never buy jewelry anywhere else. I love my custom engagement ring and wedding band and my husband chose a classic gold band, the quality is second to none and I receive so many compliments. It's always sparkly and never goes unnoticed. If you are thinking of proposing or want to get a loved one a special gift, give Becky and Barry a call! They are located in the Denver Mart so security must let you in. I would give them a call before swinging by. Thanks so much you two! Becky, I'll be by soon so I can create my "want list" when Kyle decides to get me something special! read more

Barry & Becky were amazing. Walked in not knowing much about the diamond making experience. Barry patiently walked me through a ton of diff options until we settled on the perfect diamond and ring. Originally, it was a 3 week timeline for the setting, but I requested if possible a week later to rush the ring because family was coming into town. Barry was able to get me the ring in time and match the perfect size (thankfully because I did not know her size!). She loves it and I couldn't be happier! read more

I don't understand the 5 star reviews. JF Options does work by appointment only, but you definitely still have to "compete for attention"...or, I guess the level of attention you get is directly proportionate to the level of funds you wish to drop in this establishment. I brought my grandmother's ring in to be appraised and worked into a new ring, and was immediately made to feel as if I'd brought in a crap piece of jewelry that wasn't worth their time. I had to wait even though I had an appointment and was overlooked while other customers came into the store - I guess their later appointment times took precedent over mine somehow. During my two visits, I asked questions that ANY person new to the world of jewelry appraisal and design would ask and was constantly made to feel that I was being unreasonable for asking anything at all. By the way, the only reason I went back for a second visit was to pick up my engagement ring which was having "sizing beads" added. The sizing beads were uncomfortable and sort of scratched/squeezed my finger as I tried it on the first time - so, naturally, the ring was immediately snatched from me to be buffed down by the guy down the hall who'd soldered the beads in to begin with...they never sized me and even after it'd been buffed down some, it still hurt, but I didn't feel comfortable asking for any more revisions. I decided to have the diamond from my grandmother's ring removed from the setting so that we could really see the whole thing and find out the weight and such. When the diamond came out of the ring, the owner spoke negatively of it's quality and even had the nerve to take it back down to the appraiser to have him knock it down a notch in color and clarity from the original appraisal. Seriously?? What a jerk! I ended up taking my business elsewhere for the design of my dream ring and am so happy I did! 100% turn around from this horrible experience. If you're a regular person who has regular person amounts of money and wants to be treated with respect no matter what kind of budget you have, DO NOT GO TO JF OPTIONS. read more

I recently inherited some jewelery from my father's estate, and needed an expert to help me sort the trash from the treasure. Thanks to the extremely helpful and knowledgeable staff at JF, I now have a better understanding of the value of the collection. They also steered me in the correct direction when my original appointment was for an appraisal - to a valuation instead. They work with a gemologist across the hallway, who is an expert both in valuation and appraisal. I highly recommend this company, and will definitely return should I require any additional jewelry service in the future. read more

Had never had a jewelry appraisal before so relied on a friend's recommendation for JF Options. They work by appointment only at the Denver Merchandise Mart so you're never competing for attention. For a very reasonable flat fee Barry and Todd first went through a lifetime collection to sort out real gems and precious metals, determined there were 7 pieces worth a full appraisal for insurance purposes, and saved me considerable fees in that initial sort. Those 7 special pieces were then painstakingly appraised by their partner-appraiser, American Gem Registry, which weighed, gauged to industry and resale standards, fully documented with color photos and enlargements, and a 16-page illustrated document accompanied the returned items. The original ball-park estimate for the 7 items was $10,000. The final replacement value came in at $14,650.00. Meanwhile Todd & Barry took my beloved Italian wedding band which had sat on the shelf since my divorce, found a gorgeous flowerette of tiny gold-mounted diamonds from a single earring from my deceased aunt, and for $100 fashioned an exquisite ring that celebrates many wonderful times with my ex along with memories of my aunt. I'm thrilled! I have never bought jewelry for myself, but if I did, this is where I would shop. There's hardly an item in their showcases I wouldn't choose over a Tiffany or other designer. Breathtaking. read more

I initially spoke to Becky over the phone about making a appointment for a appraisal on my Moms old wedding set. That short conversation alone was all I needed to know I've chosen the right place and sure enough, I was right. That phonecall was indicative of the service - t'd be better to call it; the attention - I received. Not only did Becky (and her husband Barry) treat my request as importantly as I did, they treated this three piece appraisal realistically. Explained what I had in my possession, explained old paper work and explained the appraisal process to me. They could've thrown a number out, a dismissive half answer and sent me on my way like so many other appraisers had hoped to. In the end I didn't get a appraisal, I was able to walk away with confidence knowing what I had in my hand (both in terms of being able to read what amounted to hieroglyphics in previous appraisal documents and the sets weight/clarity/grade) so that when my Mom decides to get rid of them she'll be doing so with knowledge and confidence on her side. To be treated so well, to have taken up a good bit of their time and for them to not have just taken the easier deal I was expecting is really refreshing. Don't be dissuaded by having to make a appointment, don't be dissuaded by your lack of knowledge of the Merchandise Mart. I don't know when I'll be looking at jewelry for myself or having the need/want to have pieces appraised (I'm more of a scrap and send to the refinery type) but when that times come JF Options is the first and only place I will ring up and the first place I think you should too. read more

I cried! When I first saw my ring I could not believe how stunning it was. It is above and way beyond what I had hoped for. They worked hard for us!! Barry and Becky Baxman are the very best when it comes to knowledge, expertise, customer service and exceeding expectations. If you want top quality and great prices this is your store. read more

Mark and I found JF Options while searching for diamonds and designers for my engagement ring. Becky and Barry were able to get a "sample" ring in from a Canadian designer in a couple days, where Trice Jewelers took almost 2 weeks! The Baxmans were able to get in a myriad of different diamonds for us to look at and the diamond we chose was brilliant compared to the others ones that we would have likely chosen just from the description. Seeing a diamond in person is the only way to buy it! Becky has said all along that she wants to be our jeweler for life. Through this experience, she definitely has our business, not to mention my husband's sons! Thank you for everything you do for us! read more

JF Options.....I have been a customer since 1997......that basically says it all. Barry and Becky exceed their competition with their customer service, knowledge, advice, and personal attention.

I have been buying from Barry, for years. He has always been fair and very fun to deal with. I strongly recommend you contact him and make an appointment to see what he has to offer. He can work with you to design custom (pick your own stones and settings) or choose from his large assortment of high quality metals and jewels. No samples are given but his pricing is very competitive and (most of all) fair. I cannot say enough nice things about this business. read more

I'm so happy that our friends referred us to JF Options! You can tell that Becky and Barry not only know their stuff, but they truly care about getting you the best diamond for your budget. We went to a retail chain that quoted us the same price for a smaller diamond that was 4-5 grades less on the clarity! Call JF Options before going anywhere else and I promise you won't be disappointed! read more

I thought after being a very happy loyal customer of Becky and Barry's at JF Options for the past 6 years it was about time for a nice review. It's the least I could do for them after all the great deals they've made me on all the beautiful diamonds I've bought my wife since my 1st visit to JF options 6 years ago for my wife's amazing engagement ring that she still shows off like she got it yesterday. Since my 1st visit I have felt like family. Becky and Barry took me in like a lost puppy. I had no idea what I was doing. They helped me buy the love of my life much more than I ever dreamed my budget would allow for her engagement ring and are still helping a middle class fella like myself dress my beautiful wife up in white gold and high quality diamonds like a millionaire boss would still to this day. I have also sent a few handfuls of clients and friends to them and they have treated them the same. They all rave about JF Options and how funny and fun Becky and Barry are. I like the fact that they are by appointment only so I get their undivided attention cause I usually have a lot of questions. Lol. I leave there feeling confident in all my purchases. Becky is a great mentor when it comes to helping me make big decisions. They don't push when I give them my budget like most places I've been to in the past. Hate that uncomfortable pushy feeling. They do get me out of my financial comfort zone a little sometimes but not to the point of breaking the bank. They know when I'm being cheap. My wife thanks them for that. Lol. Anyway I could go on all day with compliments. Bottom line is they are the best, most friendly, funny, comfortable, diamond-jewelers in Colorado by far! Thank you Becky and Barry!!! You rock!!! See ya soon! I'll keep sending friends your way! read more

We have enjoyed working with Becky and Barry since 1994. They offer beautiful jewelry at a price that is unbeatable. They were able to create a custom piece from family heirlooms. No need to go anywhere else. read more

JF Options....where do I start.... They are damn good at what they do. We took my fiance's 106 year old heirloom engagement ring in to have it checked out etc. Barry found some issues and told us it needed some repairs before she could wear it again otherwise we would lose stones and/or the ring could break. He stated that he could not do what needed to be done in house but would rather send it out to get a second opinion on IF they could fix it. No go. The ring was so old that no one wanted to take the job. Barry suggested that we might want to consider making a replica so my fiancé could wear it on a daily basis without worrying if the ring would break or lose the stone. We agree. Were we surprised with the finished product!!!! We had to keep the rings separate because we were hesitant about getting them mixed up!! They knocked it out of the park. We could not be happier with the service, attention to detail and the quality that Barry and his wife put forth. We will be using them from hence forth for any of our jewelry needs and we suggest that you do the same. Hands down the best. read more

My husband and I had magnificent service with Barry and Becky and are even more impressed with how gorgeous the diamond earrings we purchased from them. My husband worked with them to research and find the best quality diamonds on the market. Barry and Becky's knowledge of the industry is unparalleled. This seems to be the place that is passed on from word mouth of happy customers and has Denver's best kept secret written all over it. read more

Barry and Becky (along with the rest of their staff) at JF Options were fantastic. I visited several different jewelry stores and met with specialists when shopping for an engagement ring, I felt JF Options was far and away from the competition as far as personal attention, advice, and guidance. They showed me great GIA certified stones, put them under the microscope for me to show the engraved serial codes and explain all of the "C's" and minute details visible under high magnification. It was an awesome learning experience and it gave me so much confidence in my purchase. They were also extremely attentive and professional and ultimately helped me select the perfect ring for me to present to my now fiance for a great price. Thanks again Barry and Becky! read more

I cannot thank Barry & Becky @ JF Options enough! So grateful they helped us find the perfect wedding ring to celebrate 20 amazing years! I live in California now but will forever fly to Denver to shop at JF Options! Thank you so much!!! read more

I was having trouble finding the perfect engagement ring and a family friend suggested I visit JF options. From the moment I arrived I was treated wonderfully by Barry, Becky and their team of professionals. The diamond I had been trying to source for weeks, JF options got for me in just a day. They helped design and create a custom mount and my (now) wife still marvels at its beauty daily. I live in NYC - and with all the options available to me locally, I still will and have subsequently gone back to JF options for 2 other pieces of jewelry. And my wife has purchased a couple pieces as well. Why would we go anywhere else? They're helpful, priced right and timely. read more

JF Options is a great place to find a piece of jewelry that you want to wear the rest of your life! Barry and Samantha are amazing and make you feel at home. My fiancé bought my engagement ring and we bought our bands their too. So easy and great prices. Thanks JF Options! Wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

Barry, Becky and their team are wonderful to work with. I have been doing business with them since 1992 as a client and for the last 15 years as an insurance agent. They are intent on making sure their clients are happy with their new jewelry purchase and/or their insurance claim. An important item they provide is a complimentary detailed appraisal for the jewelery purchased. This then can be used to insure your piece of jewelry with your insurance carrier. JF Options goes above and beyond for all of their clients and I am proud to work with them as a jewelry replacement source. read more

JF Options was recommended to my fiance and me by friends after moving to the Denver area. I had been in search of a wedding band for months and had been unsuccessful, so after hearing our friends rave about this business I was excited to check it out. Upon arrival we were kindly greeted by one of the owners and taken upstairs to their showroom. While there, I had so much fun trying on all different kinds of bands and talking to the owners about our wedding plans. Their prices are reasonable with the budget we had in mind, and they presented options my fiance and I had not seen or thought of before. They also cleaned my engagement ring and taught us a few things about jewelry we never knew. All in all it was a great personal experience. We will definitely be clients for life! read more

Becky and Samantha at JF Options were wonderful to work with. They worked within my budget, found the most beautiful Alexandrite gemstone (which are not easy to find!) and helped me design my custom engagement ring. Could not be happier with the final result and would recommend them to anyone looking for a jeweler! read more

Dimond fell out of my fiancé's engagement ring (box store) a few weeks after I proposed. Insurance Co sent me to JF and they were awesome from start to finish. Provided me with countless options to choose from and had an extremely quick turnaround. They have a new customer for life! read more

These guys were amazing! I just picked up my engagement ring from them today and it is so beautiful. I cannot stop staring! I decided to get a different setting and went to see them on whim (and a google search). The whole team was helpful and worked with us on budget. I found exactly what I wanted and love it! I even tried shopping around after seeing them, to see if I could find a better deal. Honestly, nothing could beat the value and price from JF. I would highly recommend seeing these guys - great staff as well! Samantha is a rock star! read more
