If I could give Foster's Jewelry more than 5 stars, I absolutely would…read more Stephen created my dream engagement ring, and I truly couldn't be more obsessed with it. We brought him a diamond, and he designed a custom setting and placed it on a beautiful cigar band. The final result is even more stunning than I ever imagined. It is, without a doubt, my favorite piece of jewelry I own and something I'll cherish every single day for the rest of my life. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are exceptional. You can tell Stephen genuinely cares about creating pieces that are not only beautiful but built to last. Beyond his incredible talent, he's also one of the kindest and most honest jewelers you'll ever meet. Throughout the entire process, he made us feel like his top priority. After I got engaged, I realized I wanted the setting to sit a little lower. I brought it back to Stephen, and within just a few hours he adjusted it perfectly. It was such a small change, but it made all the difference, and he couldn't have been more accommodating. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, personal, and stress free. I'll absolutely be returning to have my wedding band made by Stephen, and I can't imagine trusting anyone else with such meaningful jewelry. If you're looking for a custom engagement ring, a one of a kind piece, or want to transform a family heirloom into something you'll treasure forever, I cannot recommend Foster's Jewelry enough. You won't just leave with beautiful jewelry. You'll leave with something truly special.

I'm really glad my mom discovered Stephen's shop and recommended him to me during my search for a…read morecustom wedding band. He is so warm, friendly, and has decades of experience being a jeweler. It was an easy conversation sharing what I had in mind, and Stephen sent a CAD design over quickly. Once I confirmed the design and sizing, my ring was ready in under two weeks and is exactly what I envisioned! It's absolutely beautiful and working with Stephen made all the difference in my experience. He won't be doing this forever, and trustworthy jewelers can be hard to find, so whether you want custom jewelry or ready-made pieces, I wholeheartedly recommend Stephen!

She welcomed me warmly and took the time to ask what I needed help with. I explained that I was missing a few diamonds and needed some additional repairs. Rhonda carefully inspected my ring and helped me understand exactly what needed to be done. She was incredibly patient with all of my questions and concerns and never made me feel rushed. She truly took her time with me, and I felt like she genuinely cared about making sure I was taken care of. I really appreciate the amazing customer service Rhonda provided and how valued she made me feel as a customer. My experience was wonderful, and I will absolutely be returning to Gems of La Costa in the future. Thank you, Rhonda, for making what could have been a stressful experience such a positive one!

Rob and his wife both assisted me in the process of designing my engagement ring, from picking out…read morea diamond, advising me how to choose, letting me compare using the loop, and also listening to my preferences on design. Rob was immensely kind and personable throughout it all, and on top of it all charged us half of what we were being quoted elsewhere. I am still in disbelief that I got a custom, local, STUNNING ring. The only thing I will say is that I had to reach out to him a couple different times for updates and timing - I didn't want to be a pest but the lack of communication gave me a little uncertainty with how the ring would turn out, but of course it ended up beautiful and I'm so grateful. Speaking of, I need to reach out to him for the certificate! Lastly, every time I went into the shop, there were regular long-time customers inside and there was always a great energy and happiness from them - it was a good sign from the beginning! I'm happy to say I'll be a regular now too. Thanks Rob!

Jonathan and Robere are both incredibly kind, professional, patient, and meticulous when it comes to every detail. Jonathan worked with us over the course of several weeks to create the perfect engagement ring, and we truly could not be happier with the final result. He took the time to listen to exactly what we wanted, answer all of our questions, and make sure every detail was perfect. The entire experience felt personal and never rushed or pressured, which made such an important purchase even more special. Since then, we've recommended Robere's to friends and family for jewelry repairs and any other jewelry needs, and we'll absolutely continue to do so. We're so grateful to Jonathan and Robere for their incredible work and such a wonderful experience. Five stars all around!
