I chose a thicker chain since the first 2 times I did this, my chains were super fine and they got snagged and fell off at some point never to be see again. I also chose a little black rhinestone heart to complete the look. Very happy with my selection. This is a fun activity to do for bridal parties or just a fun girls night out.

They have a lot of chain options & charm options, with price points that are a good range of affordable luxury. The installation was easy & quick, I got an anklet and they had me sit on the high chair with my foot up on the table. My jewelry installer was very nice, fast, and double checked her work to make sure it would lay properly and fit the way I wanted. I'll definitely be back for another piece of permanent jewelry!

It was great getting to try on rings in person and seeing all the beautiful pieces up close. Meg was incredibly friendly and helpful--she answered all my sizing questions, pulled up my past purchases, and even showed me their charm case. Catbird offers free welding if you want to add a charm to your bracelet or necklace, which is a nice touch. When I mentioned I'd lost a ring, she generously offered me 20% off to replace it. And since Catbird rarely goes on sale (15% at most), I had to replace my Painter's Gold Stacking Ring! Plus, the sales tax in Mass (yes, jewelry is taxed here!) is already lower than CA's.

My husband and I shopped for an *ethical* engagement ring at Laura Preshong in October, 2017…read more Shopping for such a pricey and special item can be very overwhelming, but we felt very comfortable at Laura Preshong. We never felt pressured to buy before we were ready, and the sales associates and Laura herself answered any and all questions we had. My husband thinks that most engagement rings look like ring pops.. They are too high up. Prior to us starting the search for the right ring, I assumed my options were going to be high settings. But when we arrived at Laura Preshong, we quickly realized that we were in the right place. The settings are lower but exquisite. And there are many beautifully handcrafted designs to chose from. We found our favorite and then went back this spring to look at wedding bands. Ultimately, my husband went for a chain store wedding band since he wanted something very simple that was cheaper elsewhere. But my wedding band if from Laura Preshong and it's beautiful and fits perfectly with my engagement ring. I've been married for a month and a half now, but I still look at my rings and think they are SO beautiful. Laura Preshong is an upbeat, fun person. You get to know her and her staff personally while you work with them. I highly recommend.

I had to have both rings reset by a different jeweler as Laura was rude and dismissive the first time I brought it to her attention that my setting was loose - when I nearly lost my center stone within a year of receiving the ring. I lost two of my grandmother's diamonds...it's devastating! I am kind of relieved to read that other reviewers had a similar experience as me because Laura was so dismissive and made me feel like it was my fault that I wear my rings too hard. I have other diamond rings that have never had this happen!

First time coming here and was not impressed. Apparently it's more beads + jewelry than crystals,…read morebut there were 3-4 crystal vendors, only one that I felt was sourced ethically. There were a lot of beads + fake jewelry, as well as some real jewelry, but most of them were charging retail prices or more. It was much smaller than I thought it would be, but I was told that a lot of the regular vendors no longer come. I was able to find a few tables and items I liked, but based on the turnout I would not return. There was a gentleman who ran the D'amati Fine Jewelry booth who was extremely rude. I was walking around, taking a few pictures for personal reference, not for posting online and no one had said anything to me. I tried to take a picture of his booth for reference to come back to the website, and he exclaimed that pictures were not allowed and there was a sign outside because there were proprietary designs, then gave a New York fashioned GFY wink. Really? Because all of your jewelry looks the same as anyone else's. I brought it up to a few other vendors who had no issue with photos so he was the only one. So I definitely would not purchase jewelry from D'Amati's Fine Jewelry based on that interaction.
