Well kept secrets are sometimes much too well kept. This place is one of them…read more This is a store for professional jewelers. We're talking about the real deal here. The things they sell are helpful to more than professional jewelers. My father, for example, is a botanist who studies mosses. He buys all of his hand lenses here (and then proceeds to wear them around his neck and continually get asked why he's wearing a whistle.) I like them for their beading cord and tool quality. This is the kind of place that is trying to keep itself a secret. THERE IS NO SIGN. Let me repeat that. THIS STORE DOES NOT HAVE A SIGN. They also keep their door locked a lot of the time, so you knock and look somewhat respectable and they let you in. (The store is located right next to the plasma donation place, and they apparently get some interesting characters in.) If you're an artist or a beader or a botanist/entomologist/etc. I highly suggest dropping in sometime. It will be worth your while.

They seem pretty determined to not help out potential customers. I haven't really had an…read moreopportunity to do any business with them--not by my choice. I called them because it said here in a previous review that they do watch repair. It turns out they don't actually do watch repair, they only sell the parts. When I asked if they could recommend a repair person she asked who I was. When I told her my name she told me to just go to my local jeweler...which I'm pretty sure I could have figured out on my own, except I didn't want to do that. Well she refused to tell me of any local shops that work on watches. This must be the only business in Columbus that has more business than they know what to do with--as they sure don't seem very welcoming to new potential business.

I was so nervous about handing my ring over to someone. The owner was very kind, knowledgeable, and reassuring. It took a little over a week for the repair. I thought the cost of the repair was fair.

YE Gurl Says: Service Matters More Than Sparkle at Worthington Jewelers…read more Place: Worthington Jewelers Context: Bridal show intro + in-store visits I really wanted to root for this one. I'm a fan of local, mom-and-pop businesses--especially for something as meaningful as wedding jewelry. Met the team at a bridal show, and while the energy felt a little off (crowds were heavy, so I gave grace), they warmed up enough to mention an extended bridal promo and encouraged me to stop in. So I did. And unfortunately... the experience never quite landed. When I came into the store, it was busy again--fair--but the interaction felt just as unclear as before. I explained exactly what I was looking for (even showed a Tiffany & Co. reference), and was immediately told customization was the only option... with no pricing guidance, no range, no transparency. That's a miss. When I did find a band in-store that worked, I moved forward--still without a clear idea of cost. After a long back-and-forth with a manufacturer, the quote came back at over $1,500 more than the comparable Tiffany piece. Pause. I also had to remind them about their own bridal promotion while actively making a purchase. That shouldn't be on the customer. To salvage the visit, I added earrings and dropped off jewelry for repair (which, to be clear, the smith work was excellent). But the buying experience? Still off. And here's where it really mattered: I later found my original ring through my Tiffany rep and called to cancel the order. Thankfully, I caught it in time--because buried in the fine print is that custom orders are non-cancelable. That's the kind of detail that should be clearly communicated upfront, not discovered later. Even the cancellation process felt like work. I was told someone would call me back... hours passed... I had to follow up myself to close the loop. Final visit to pick up my repaired jewelry? Empty store, but still somehow rushed. I tried to browse, got prompted to check out early, asked about items I'd previously seen--and was told they didn't exist. Then spotted them right next to me at checkout. At that point, I paid for the repair work and left with the same energy I walked in with: rushed, unclear, and not particularly welcomed. YE Gurl Insight: There's a difference between *nice* and *kind*. Nice feels scripted. Kind feels intentional. And in a category like jewelry--where purchases are emotional, high-investment, and personal--experience is everything. Final Take: * Craftsmanship (repairs): Strong * Retail experience: Inconsistent at best * Pricing transparency: Lacking * Overall vibe: Off I understand why more people are opting for brands like Tiffany & Co. or even online retailers like Mejuri --you get clarity, consistency, and a smoother experience without the friction. YE Gurl Says: Support local when it feels good to do so. But if the experience makes you second-guess a meaningful purchase? Trust that instinct and move accordingly.

There is something to be said about a local family-owned business. Everyone here is so friendly,…read moreknowledgeable, and inviting. They don't ever make you feel pressured to buy anything or try to upcharge you. My husband got my engagement ring custom made here last year. They worked with him on every detail until it was exactly what he wanted and it turned out beautiful. We proceeded to get our wedding rings from here as well - both have custom work done to them, mine especially. They collaborated with me on the design I wanted and hand carved it. They spent a lot of time ensuring it was to their standards. I know this because they told us they didn't like the first one they made and started over. I highly recommend coming here for any personalization or jewelry needs.

They…read moretruly went above and beyond to make the entire engagement ring process as stress free and seamless as possible. They took the time to walk me through every step in a way that was clear, honest, and approachable, and were always mindful of my budget. Alex was fantastic to work with and kept me in the loop every step of the way. He took my loose ideas and turned them into something thoughtful, unique, and honestly better than I had pictured. The ring itself turned out absolutely stunning, a true piece of art that my fiance and I will cherish for a lifetime. I am incredibly grateful for their guidance and craftsmanship, and would highly recommend Dublin Village Jewelers to anyone!

I don't know how purchasing jewelry from this store is. My review is just about getting rings…read moresized/repaired. I stopped in based on the reviews. I have a ring that had a 3.0+mm wide and 2.3mm depth band. It needed to be sized down almost a full size. I took it in and was guaranteed they could do it no issue... They told me the band would get thicker because they would be bringing the thicker sides in. I left it with them for a week, as I don't live in Columbus . I was so happy to get it back and didn't really notice until about half an hour later: my ring hurt to wear. I took it off and looked at it and I was devastated. You could feel where they cut the shank, it was wavy, the was no uniformity to the edges, and it was oblong. I called and they apologized profusely. Asked me to take it to the store in Cleveland and they would let that store know we were coming. They did not. The store in Cleveland had no idea I was coming. Turns out, I paid the store in Columbus for the honor of someone ruining my ring. It lost nearly half a mm in depth and thickness. The store in Cleveland did the best they could. They would have had to order shanks and tried to color match the rose gold but it could have ended worse than before. Turns out the Columbus store didn't even resize it correctly and left it a quarter of a size too big. So unless you want your jewelry ruined, take it anywhere else. We were going to purchase an engagement ring from this company, but I'll take my business to alibaba before here. The store manager did refund my 125 resizing fee, or the fee I paid them to take gold out of my ring and leave me with something I couldn't wear. He told me it was weird that it ended up thinner than before because "taking a ring in shouldnt do that". My ring was 2.5mm wide and 1.9mm depth before the Cleveland. Actually fixed it. My question is this: where is the material they took out of my ring and why was I not compensated for that when they trashed my ring? My ring will never be the same. Go anywhere else.

After losing some weight, my wedding set is too big. I initially took my set in and asked for sizing beads to be added. I had these sizing beads previously and they worked well. The lady said I would have to pay out of pocket for the sizing beads. I explained I had them before and they were paid for by the warranty. The lady said for the 14 years she has been there, they have not been covered by the plan. This is actually my third ring I had them added to and paid for by the warranty plan we purchased. After determining I was getting nowhere, I went ahead and told her she could size down the ring without the beads since it was paid for by the warranty. Keep in mind if she took the time to check the computer regarding my account, she would have seen the details I attempted to share. Fast forward to the day I picked the ring set up. The lady said- here you go, the work was completed but the shop noted they will NEVER be able to work on the rings again. She knew nothing more, how is this possible? I let her know as soon as I tried the ring on, that it was not sized down and the work was not completed as stated. She said, unfortunately, she knew nothing more than the couple words they put on the slip saying they would NEVER work on it again. Just to reiterate, this was purchased from Jared and I paid for a warranty plan covering these repairs. Several days later when I had not heard from anyone at Jared, I called to get more info. They said the platinum on my rings was too thin and that was the last time they would even touch them. Jared, you have seen the same ring every 6 months and made repairs as needed for the last 25 years, how am I just now hearing this for the first time??? They said I could look at putting the purchase price of the band towards a new one, despite this being 25 years ago and platinum being much more expensive now. They said I could get the exact same ring custom made if I pay $1,900 and the additional money for a new warranty plan. Why would I have to pay even a penny for a ring set purchased through you, with a warranty plan, and only your shop has worked on the rings. Completely unacceptable! The manager explained that after several years, it's normal to have to replace a wedding set. What the hell? No one buys a wedding set thinking they have to buy a second one years later. If it's so common, why wasn't it mentioned when we purchased it? I can't imagine someone explaining to me years ago that I would need to look at possibly buying a second wedding ring down the road, but for the same MARRIAGE!!! I don't wear my ring in the shower or in my house. It's only on when I leave the house. I will NEVER shop at Jared again and I will make it my mission to share this horror story with anyone who will listen. I can't imagine the number of others this has happened to. Please save yourself the money and hassle of having to replace your entire wedding set years later, take your business elsewhere!!!!
