To be honest, I'm surprised I'm writing this review, but our experience in our recent visit made it so we're definitely never returning, and would highly recommend people go elsewhere for their needs. The first time my fiancée and I visited, we were freshly engaged and needed her ring sized a bit smaller (from a 6). We saw that Schmitt had good reviews and it was in our neighborhood, so we paid them a visit. During our first visit, the employees (a young woman and a gentleman who was billed as sort of the "expert" on ring resizing) were very kind to us and worked with us to determine the correct size to go down to on the ring. The gentleman was extremely insistent that we need to go all the way down to a 5 and, despite the fact that my fiancée was honestly and vocally uncomfortable with it, we trusted his expertise (after all, we had gone in seeking advice) and paid to have it resized to a 5. Fast forward almost a year of us convincing ourselves a 5 was the right size, my fiancée is at this point having extreme anxiety about how much effort (and pain) it takes to put on & take off the ring every day, and we decide size 5 is simply too small. While a 5 fits her finger fine once the ring was on, getting it over the last knuckle is difficult and painful, and has been leaving the skin on her knuckle irritated and inflamed. Yes, Schmitt was wrong (and confidently, emphatically wrong), but we understand that nobody is perfect and we were totally willing to trust them again to get it right this time. However, when we visited this time, the energy we were given by the employee who "greeted" us at the door (an older woman with gray hair wearing a ton of jewelry) was immediately hostile. When we explained our situation and that we were hoping to have the ring resized (and obviously willing to pay to have it done), the woman was flippant and condescending and not AT ALL consultative. Without seeming to give it much thought, the woman asked if we wanted to go to a 5.75. While we were open to this, we pointed out that the previous gentleman we worked with was insistent that a 5 (from a 6) was the right size, so we were hesitant to go all the way back three quarters of a size so easily. The woman suggested that my fiancée's knuckle "must have grown an entire size" in the time since our first visit. She then again asked us if we wanted to go to a 5.75, with the impression that she didn't really want to go back-and-forth any longer. I understand that ring sizing is a sort of imperfect science and that bodies (and fingers) DO change, but the energy and attitude we received was seriously off-putting and, frankly, unwelcoming. We probably don't look or dress like most of Schmitt's customers, but we are nice people and can afford to shop there (not that that should matter). We left Schmitt's and took the ring to another local jeweler (see my other reviews) the same day where we received excellent, friendly, and consultative service. Turns out you can put beads on the inside of a ring that is slightly too big to help balance things out! My fiancée now has a perfectly-fitting ring, size 6 with two small beads on the inside to help stabilize it once over her knuckle. We gave Schmitt's an honest chance even after they messed up badly the first time, and they blew it. Please go elsewhere. read more

Great service! Really listen to what you want and help you create it! Their repair work is excellent too.

I bought my first cocktail ring from Schmidt Jewelers in the mid 1985. It is a ruby surrounded by smaller diamonds. I still love it and wear it often. read more

I was looking for a gift for my mom's 70th and the staff was able to help me select the perfect item for her. I love that they are close by and have an ample selection of anything you possibly could be looking for as far as jewelry goes. Their jewelry is of the highest quality. I will keep them in mind for my next gift item. read more

Beautiful craftsmanship. Been a customer for 19 years. Excellent customer service. Family run still to this day.

Bought my wife's wedding ring here, friendly staff, excellent service. They were ultra patient with me as we designed the ring. Would highly recommend read more

Brought an heirloom ring of ours that I noticed one of the prongs was loose. After searching around, I decided to try Schmitt as it was a family owned business and right around the corner from us. I walked in and was immediately greeted. They had my ring all of 5 minutes and I was back in business. And the ring never looked better as they cleaned it up too! The woman and the gentleman, he whom fixed/cleaned my ring, were very nice and friendly. They told me to bring it back every 6 months to be rechecked. Seriously wonderful service from a wonderful business that has gained us as a new customer! read more

I had a horrible experience walking into this establishment. I'm in the process of looking for a ring to set a diamond that I had made from my late sons ashes, and as soon as I walked in the security guard immediately walked behind me and stood behind me, breathing down my neck, as I was trying to shop with the sales person for a setting for my diamond. It was the most uncomfortable situation I've ever been in recently. I suspect he did that because I'm a black American. This White Mall cop acted as if I was going to shoot up the lace or steal something. I'm a 52 year old well established business owner in Arizona. Wow, the stereotype was ridiculous. I will never give them any of my money. read more

Rare to find craftsmen now a days. Tim Schmitt and his team are true professionals. Beautiful collections and talented at creating that one off custom piece. Highly recommend Tim and his team. They recently did a repair for two my mother's gold rings and she couldn't be happier with the way they turned out. Thank you Tim. read more

I went in to get an appraisal for a piece of jewelry. The staff was super helpful and answered all my questions. I've done business with Schmitt in the past and they are honest and have beautiful pieces of jewelry. They been around for several years and their quality is excellent. read more

Well, after the better part of a decade it was long past time for me to propose, and one of main reasons it took so long was my fear of getting taken advantage when buying the ring (I've heard horror stories from customers and former salespeople). On advice of a couple friends I went to Schmitt and I couldn't be happier. Stephanie helped me and she was fantastic- very personable and made sure all my questions were answered and I was comfortable with everything, and Tom & the Schmitt family made it happen (in the middle of a pandemic AND a busy holiday season). No matter what you're looking for-and your budget- if you're in the market for jewelry you have to go to Schmitt Jewelers! (Oh yeah, she said yes) read more

I highly recommend Schmitt Jewelry for their FABULOUS service and beautiful jewelry. We have bought our jewelry at Schmitt Jewelers for years and we are always pleased.

Michael was so helpful when I went in to have my husband and I's wedding bands buffed out after some recent scratches! He not only buffed out the scratches and made the rings look like new again, but he also cleaned both of my wedding bands and checked the prongs before returning to me. He definitely went the extra mile. Highly recommend! read more

Thank you Schmitt Jewelers and thank you Megan for my ring! Megan is super nice and personable. They ship your purchase via FedEX too in case you're not able to go to the store in person. The only problem was making a payment through the phone. Josh was out of town for a training so one of the older ladies was taking my credit card information. It was a chore. However, I would recommend Schmitt Jewelers! read more

I have had a couple of pieces of jewelry repaired here. Every time I call or come in the staff is so incredibly friendly and knowledgeable.

Couldn't be more impressed or secure in my purchase. Was referred three jewelers by friend who sold loose diamonds and stones for 40 years. I was greeted and worked directly with Tim, an owner. No lack of integrity and I am a hard critic. Very very humble, and down to Earth. Well-rounded knowledge of the industry as I understand it and well-polished interpersonal skills. After hearing more about his parameters when buying diamonds and the lengths he goes to please clientele, I will be making larger purchases with them. Tim spent a significant amount of time with me for such a modest purchase. I could not find what I wanted in the price range I wanted. Tim designed a ring that matched everything I was looking for, with the pretty unbelievable price in comparison to the original rings including the stone color, clarity, and cut. Family business, this was also very important to me when purchasing. Entire family was present and carried the same positive and genuine demeanor. Thank you Tim, Excellent job! I'll be seeing you folks at least once more in 2019 read more

We truly could not be happier. Pat and the lovely people at Schmitt Jewelers transformed my wife's dated wedding ring into a showpiece. They completed it in record time (several days early so my wife could wear it on a business trip), the design is stunning, communication was flawless, the price was fantastic, and they're just wonderful people. We've truly found our lifelong family jeweler. Thank you everyone! read more

Schmitt Jewelers - This was before they polished it....AMAZING!!! - Jewelry Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I came to Schmitt Jewelers on a recommendation from a volunteer organization where I'm a member, and I couldn't be happier! I had my grandmother's wedding band resized from a size 9 to a size 6.5/7. Everyone was very professional and told me exactly when my ring would be ready, and that they would also clean the wedding band and my engagement ring. Being relatively new to the area, I didn't know which jeweler to take care of this special piece, and now I will go there for future jewelry maintenance and purchases. read more

They are amazing. I had a very important (sentimental) ring from my family turned into a custom necklace here. Ginnie (one of the owners) extensively helped my wife and I find the perfect piece, and they did a perfect job. It couldn't have turned out more beautiful. These are family-owned business people you want to work with. They will take care of you. read more

Schmitt jewelers does excellent custom work. They bought our diamonds and gold for a trade. We bought my engagement ring and my fiancées wedding band with Schmitt. Both were custom and we are very pleased so far with the process. One downside is they have very limited hours making it nearly impossible for my full time working fiancé to come with me. read more

I've had many repairs done here, and admired their jewelry for years. They do absolutely beautiful, perfect repair work. If another jeweler can't do the job, bring it here. Their staff includes jewelry artists, craftsmen and designers. I think they can do everything. They are also very nice, helpful and service is excellent. I highly recommend. read more

I was looking for what I thought would be an easy fix for my broken watch clasp. I had been told that even though they were expensive, Schmitt was excellent and would take good care of me. On 4/14/21 I dropped the watch off and was given a receipt with a written estimate date of 4/17 and a written repair date of 4/23. Two weeks later, when I hadn't heard from Schmitt, I called them and was told that they wrote my phone number down incorrectly, so they couldn't call me. They gave me an estimate of $85.00 for a new clasp. I told them to go ahead and fix it. They told me the watch should be ready within 5 days and they'd call me for pickup. When I hadn't heard from them in another 2 weeks, I called again and was told that it was still with the repairman and was taking longer than anticipated because he was having to order the clasp and clean the band. This didn't make sense to me, and I told them I wanted to speak with the repairman, so they gave me his phone number. No one answered, so I left a voice mail message with him. Later that afternoon, I received a voice message on my phone from Mr. Schmitt telling me that the repairman was unable to find the clasp, so they could not repair my watch. REALLY!!!!?? AFTER ALL THIS TIME!!!??? NO COMMUNICATION WHATSOEVER FROM SCHMITT UNLESS I CALLED THEM????!!! The next day I picked up my watch, drove down a few blocks to the Scottsdale Fashion Square, dropped my watch off with Fast Fix inside the mall, paid $44.95 in advance, and was guaranteed that the part could be ordered, and my watch would be fixed. Later that afternoon, I received a voice message from Fast Fix telling me that the watch was already fixed, since they had the exact clasp needed in stock. I went back to Fast Fix the next day, picked up the watch, and it now has an identical, brand new clasp which works perfectly -- for half the price quoted by Schmitt!!!!! Don't waste your time going to Schmitt for repairs. More Expensive Is Not Always Better. TAKE YOUR JEWLERY REPAIRS TO FAST FIX INSIDE THE SCOTTSDALE FASHION SQUARE. read more

This is the nicest family owned jewelry store in Phoenix. They went so far above taking care of my friend for her daughter's wedding and then replacing my Michele watch battery no charge. Love their assortment of jewelry, a good range of prices, so anyone can shop. Thanks for the great service and kindness. I'll be back. read more

I'm a lifetime Phoenix resident And have been a customer of Schmitt Jewelers for as long as I can remember. This family is amazing and customer satisfaction is paramount to them. They always come through on repairs and service. They always take care of my requests and repairs and smile with delight in doing so. I've met with the family members away from their business and they are genuine both at work and when we've met away from their business. Their service is exceptional and pricing is very reasonable and you are getting top quality products. Thank you Schmitt family in always joyfully and professionally caring for my jewelry needs. I'm grateful for you as my jewelers. Billy Sampson read more

Well this review is long over-due, I purchased my fiancé's engagement ring here about 2 months ago, but better late than never! My experience at Schmitt Jewelers was absolutely perfect. The service is unparalleled, the selection is fantastic, and the prices are fair. Megan worked with me throughout the entire process and I just can't say enough about how great she is. So knowledgeable, friendly, and hardworking. I'm not the easiest person to work with either (I think I was in the store about a dozen times before I pulled the trigger on the ring), but she was so understanding and never pressured me to buy. The entire staff there is extremely friendly and welcoming. The ring turned out amazing, and my bride to be was blown away! And she said yes! If you are in need of a jewelry store, please do yourself a favor and go straight to Schmitt. You'll be very glad you did. read more

Can't imagine shopping anywhere else. Tom and Tim are true pros and have continued a long history of quality service in the jewelry industry in Phoenix. My wife is always thrilled to see the Schmitt "blue bag" come home. The guidance and suggestions (in any price range) from the staff is outstanding and they never disappoint. A great example of what an excellent locally owned business looks like. read more

I came in to get my engagement ring cleaned and a nice gentleman name Chris helped me. Everyone there was super friendly. They gave me different price quotes on wedding bands and they have cheaper in house designs that will save you money. I will definitely be coming back to buy my fiancé wedding band. Oh and my ring cleaning was free and my ring has never shined that bright ever. read more

Schmitt Jewelers is a great family business and it's apparent the second you walk in the door. Smiles everywhere and helpful advice and guidance! My favorite part is the set up of the store -- it is much different than any other jewelry shop, as you don't have to stare down into a case with an associate looking at you from behind the counter. You can walk up and have pieces at eye level, and the employees are side by side with you, ready to answer any question. read more

I recently worked with Julia to create a custom ring and she was nothing short of fantastic. From the moment I walked in to the day I picked it up she was personable, attentive to the design details I was aspiring for and amazing in all aspects of customer service. I am very happy with the final result and highly recommend Schmitt Jewelers for custom work and they have a great selection on their showroom too. read more

A year ago I bought my wife an anniversary ring at Schmitt Jewelers and we could not have been more pleased with every facet of our experience. Tim and Tom Schmitt guided us through every step of the process with personal care, expertise and professionalism. We believe the outstanding quality of service is not only the result of their knowledge about jewelry but also their deep family roots and investment in this city. Skip the impersonal chain jewelers and visit the Schmitts. You will be glad you did! read more

I have purchased several pieces from Schmitt and have always been delighted with their service, selection, price and quality. I have also had pearls restrung and other repairs made. All have been done very well. The most amazing experience I had was with a custom piece. I took in some stones and a picture of a concept I found. They blew me away with their design. It was better than I had imagined and I was able to try in on using their 3-D printed model of it. The real ring was absolutely perfect and I have had many compliments on it. The best part of Schmitt is the family. Tim, Jen, Tom and Ann have all helped me and they have all been great. They let you keep a wish list in case you have a significant other that likes to shop for you. Super easy and you get a gift you like. It is nice to shop with a true local business instead of chains. read more

My family has been coming here for a few generations, and we've all been extremely happy with the people and the business. Most recently: brilliant Victor has raised my 1945 watch (from an Army base in Korea, for $2) from the dead. Again. Everyone at Schmitt is, without exception, kind, friendly, and efficient. Whether it's stunning merchandise to the most humble repairs, this place is unsurpassed. Thank you! read more

This store and it's owners are the real deal. Excellent service and great prices. They will serve you and create a wonderful work of art. Look at all the rest than go to Schmitt. Steve and Anita read more

My thank you to Julia for her help is far overdue. Believe me when I tell you that she lights every room she walks in and is very friendly and eager to talk about her field of expertise. I would like to emphasize that I did not know anything about jewelry walking into Schmitt Jewelers. However, this was not a problem when we sat down to talk rings. Julia was there to answer all of my questions with patience and genuine insight. The store maintained a comfortable atmosphere, and I was given an extensive education on everything I needed to know for making such an important decision. I was given many examples of the types of gold for the ring as well as the stones and setting styles. At each step, Julia and her team ensured that I was being given every opportunity to craft the most beautiful ring possible. It felt like I was their most important client. I had started with a few small diamonds that had been in my family for generations which would be patched together like a quilt into our wedding ring. Just thinking about how the ring was going to be built, made my head spin. Again, Julia was there to assuage my nerves. After showing her a few pictures and styles, she said: "Marcus, calm down we can easily do this." It was reassuring to have her in my corner throughout the process. She then introduced me to the amazing team that would be building my ring. Schmitt Jewelers gave me a to-the-day time frame for when the ring was going to be finished and delivered. They made an amazingly accurate 3D model of the ring so that I would know what the finished product would look like and make any changes if needed. Truth be told, I don't have a single suggestion for them; it was like magic. Two months later, I was made the most beautiful ring I had ever seen. One month after that, I got on my knee and proposed to the woman of my dreams. The caliber of professionalism and support displayed by Julia and her team should be considered of the highest standard and one to which all jewelers aspire to attain. Choosing Schmitt Jewelers is choosing the best jewelers in the world. read more

I had a great experience working with Schmitt. I never felt pressured to make a purchase and they listened to what I wanted. I truly felt they wanted me to be happy in hopes of creating a long term customer than making a quick sale. It worked. I have already referred friends and plan to use them in the future. Not to mention my Fiancée loves her ring. read more

The owners of this jewelry store are the most kind and professional gentlemen I've dealt with in a long time. I had a setting made for my own stone. I had a hard time with the sizing of the ring through no fault of theirs. I had to have the sizing tweaked several times and every time I did I was greeted with kindness and taken care of. I would trust this business with any valuables and will recommend them with no hesitation. Thanks for making my ring wearable! read more
