This review is long overdue. Since Taylor Swift just got engaged, I know cushion rings will spike in popularity. Consider this my "no longer gatekeeping" moment. Victor Canera made me the ring of my dreams -- antique cushion, extra low profile, platinum sparkle galore. Emailing with Nathan had a few "trust-the-process" vibes, but the end product is 10/10. I love admiring the large, chunky sparkles that an antique cushion gives off. The stone and craftsmanship are both so exquisite, and exactly what I requested. read more

My husband and I had our wedding bands made by Victor and they turned out beautifully! I found him through Reddit when trying to find a jeweler that offers hand forged rings. I had previously had jewelry made by local jewelers that I thought would be hand forged, but they were actually just cast. Turns out it's not so easy to find! Luckily, Los Angeles isn't too far from us so we were able to visit his office to make our selections and discuss what we were looking for in person. Victor was extremely patient with us and very thorough in answering all of our questions. When we received the rings, we were so happy with our decision! Victor is extremely talented and we both loved our rings. I hope to be able to work with Victor again in the future! read more

Bigtime yelp lurker but I don't think I've ever written a review. I got my fiancée's engagement ring from here and it was a great experience along the way. The designs you can see on the website are just a subset of what he can do - he's also willing to work with your vision even if it's something more classic and make suggestions along the way. The Canera hearts & arrows ideal diamond definitely has a great cut and is super bright. He was responsive to all of our questions and made sure we were comfortable along the way. I found the pricing super fair for what we got and the quality of both the stone and the setting make us super happy. read more

Had my ring re set and am completely in love with the new one! Victor is always responsive and his work is flawless. His jewelry is classic and timeless and elegant, and the quality and design are exceptional. read more

[In one sentence] Bad customer service ruins everything. Have not communicated with Victor yet, just stopped in the middle of an order because of the inappropriate attitude I receive from customer serice, Nathan Bezeytin. I hope other clients have better luck and dont talk to him. First of all, I personally really appreciate Victor Canera's professional skill, the rings he made looks subtle and beautiful, and that is why I want to customize my ring here. However, Nathan's customer service really makes me feel uncomfortable. [1] Nathan is not professional. He did not fit or try to fit customers' need. At first, I said I would like colorless diamond, he recommend a G color to me. After I clarify my need to him, he indeed send me another option. However, the next day, i asked for more options, he challenged me why I need more options and why I want larger table of a diamond (although it should be my own preference). I explained and he indeed gave me some more choices. But he still recommending the one he showed me yesterday for "its perfect ASET" according to him. I am not even be able to see the ASET on my end, and ask and realise he was talking about the first G color diamond... (I do not look down on G color, and I respect different peole's choice, but when I customize my ring, it is my own choice.) So I do not feel my own preference is being respected by Nathan at first. [2] As a client, I do not feel being respected by Nathan. I do not feel that my questions have been directly answered by him for most of the time. When I asked about payment method, and asked could i use credit card as I have cash back. Usually the answer should be simply yes or no, and then with more explanation. while Nathan replies "There will be 3% processing charge, i am not sure you can have 3% cash back". It is not your business to know how much my bank pay me. Please at least have some boundary and be respectful. The reason why I still talked with Nathan and did not give up is because I still trust Victor and believe he is professional. With the hope to get a beautiful ring, I choose to proceed and want to order a diamond. As I was waiting my bank to transfer from one of my account to another, I just look up online and accidently saw the same diamond on other online wholesale website. The price there was cheaper! So I just go back and aksed Nathan whether I can do price match. Again, the answer should be simply yes or no, while our lovely Nathen amazed me again. He asked where I saw it, I sent him the link, then i feel being humiliated by him as he said we dont fit, he recommened me to buy from that website or go to Harry Winston. Why directly answering clients' question is so hard? Why put your own judgement while you are the client service? Also, I am fine if you do not do price match as the given price is reasonable to me, but why a try of asking would result in being humiliated? [3]. While Nathan himself is not professional enough to be a client service, he does not give others benefit of doubt. There are many times that I receive really blured pictures. I understand that they cannot provide us with exact GIA number, and I never asked for it (I was angry and wrote "I keep asking GIA number" in the chat, but actually I had never). I always ask for clearer screenshot of the GIA report to see the imperfecfion of the diamond. Also, they only are willing to privide the whole GIA report before shipping. As an international buyer, I did not feel safe and asked Nathan for more clear electronic version of the GIA report for my own record just in case. I tried so hard and ask for multiple times, feelling like begging. I am glad he finally gave that to me, even without the specific GIA number, which I am fine and I understand. However, when I ask for price match later, he said " Ah, thats why you keep asking GIA number". I feel not being given benefit of doubt and REALLY HARD to communicate with him. Nearly for every request, I feel being judged and need to eplain and justify myself to get the service. Nathan's attitude also makes me feel tired and becomes less confident/excited about customizing my ring here. That should NOT be a client's normal experience. Conclusion: Nathan, I hope your boss can see it! read more

I wanted a pair of classic diamond studs that I could wear casually or dress up. I had a pair from a long time ago with stock martini 3 prong setting but wanted something that was still low set and didn't dig into my ear. Friends recommended Victor and his team to custom make a pair of earrings for me. I had a long conversation with him about his H&A branded stones (AGS certified), super low set setting with six claw prongs and large backs in platinum. I had a certain size stone in mind and he had only one in stock and needed to wait for a similar matching one. Then he found rough that he cut just for me. Who doesn't want a stone cut just for them?! Another issue for me is that I'm superstitious about the number 4 (being Chinese this is important) and he said he had other clients that were concerned about this and offered to recut one of the stones so it won't have a 4 in it. He delivered beautiful earrings that are fireballs! His hand fabricated setting is amazing. I love the delicate claw prongs. I've gotten so many compliments on them and have worn them pretty much every time I go out. Victor was a pleasure to deal with, on the phone and in emails. He helped me find my perfect pair of studs. His pricing is pretty competitive I will definitely use him again in the future when I have another project. Actually I have lots of projects in mind :) read more

I highly recommend Victor Canera for anyone looking for a knowledgeable diamond expert. I am not (yet?!) a customer, but he was still willing to take the time to talk to me about various diamonds and answer all of my many many questions. He was very patient and informative, and always quick to respond, even when I was not quick to respond to him in kind. Through talking with Victor, I came out of it much more knowledgeable about the engagement ring shopping process and confident that he would treat his customers with the same attention and care. read more

Victor and team are the absolute best. The work is stunning and can not be rivaled. The customer experience is just as good. Every question answered quickly and politely. I was 100% comfortable with the process despite being 3000 miles away. I've had custom work done by other elite jewelry makers (Leon Mege, et al), and Victor's work is at the top of a very talented bunch. The ring he crafted -- during lockdowns, protests, and a pandemic, mind you -- is the nicest piece of jewelry I've seen to date. His signature hearts and arrows diamonds are absolute firecrackers. The stone is brilliant. The setting is delicate and perfectly proportioned. Victor's pricing is fair and considering the quality, it's a true value. A+. Don't think twice. Call him. If you're in LA, go see him. read more

DM's Review My diamond purchase with Victor has been a wonderful and educational experience. My husband initially surprised me with an upgraded stone and setting to celebrate our anniversary (he is a wonderful man!), and the ring was beautiful, but unfortunately he does not know very much about fine diamonds. He purchased this initial ring from a retail store, and we worked with them to exchange and upgrade the stone, but I just was not happy with the result. I began to research diamonds on the internet, the grading process, what influence fluorescence has on the value of a diamond, how the stones are cut, as well as other fine details. I found Victor through a review online and reached out to him with questions. His response was prompt and thoughtful. He helped to educate me to the nuances of how a diamond is cut, and how the type of cut make an incredible difference in the beauty and presentation of the stone. I had many questions and he answered them all, always responding promptly. The buying process was easy, and so very professional. When I received my new ring I was blown away!!! The photos we exchanged before the purchase were beautiful, but the beauty of the stone in person was unbelievable!! We are so impressed with this purchase that we are having Victor design an eternity band to match. This is what a diamond buying experience should be. We are so very pleased. Thank you Victor!! read more

I have worked with many jewelers and this ring is second to none. I am looking forward to more projects in the future! You won't be disappointed with a VC ring for sure! read more

Victor and Nicholas helped us with a wedding band this year. The product was beautiful and the attention to detail was impressive. The color of the stones is what we were looking for which is no easy feat to achieve with colored stones. We very much appreciate Canera's customer service - they stand behind their products and want their clients to be satisfied. I am looking forward to working with VC again. read more

I recently worked with Victor on an engagement ring as well as a wedding band for my fiancée, and we couldn't be happier with the results. The superior quality of the diamonds Victor sources is obvious, and the craftsmanship of the pieces he produces is stunning. Victor is the best in the business and a joy to work with! read more

I feel very lucky to have found such an experienced professional in the industry and be able to work with Victor on the engagement ring for my now fiancé. From the very start Victor was patient and just a great person to work with, he was very honest and knowledgeable, this was all very important to me as it is a large purchase, and I had an idea of what I wanted but did need the expert guidance. After multiple emails and in-person meetings, I was able to choose a diamond and a setting, that I was excited about and felt was exactly what I was envisioning for an engagement ring to look like. As other individuals and reviews have mentioned, Victor's rings have attention to detail that stands out from the rest. The engagement ring truly came out to be a masterpiece. I loved the design of the engagement ring, the proportions are perfect, the VC H&A diamond has the fire, scintillation, and brilliance you would expect from a perfectly cut diamond, the Evelyn setting came out amazing, the ring is just jaw-dropping, and I couldn't have been more excited to propose with it! The engagement ring was a complete surprise for my now fiancé, she loves it and has been receiving nothing but compliments. Victor is a phenomenal individual who not only does great work but is a pleasure to work with, I would absolutely recommend Victor to all my friends and those looking to purchase an engagement ring that will be nothing short of extraordinary! read more

If you aren't purchasing a diamond from them, don't waste your time because they won't design a ring for you. *ETA - the listing does say at the bottom, below the quote button, that the design isn't available for client supplied stones. I willingly admit that I missed this because I saw the ring and instantly wanted to know how much it would cost, I excitedly clicked the button to get an estimate without reading the full description below. But! As a marketing manager responding to an inquiry you should care about helping the client and guiding them. Will update stars to reflect human error on my end.** My husband and I are approaching our 10 year anniversary we've decided to reset my stone. We've browsed a few sites but I never found the "one". Then I remembered, "there's a jeweler that makes really unique designs!" Searched for their IG page and fell in love with one of their halo settings. Went to their site and excitedly sent in an inquiry . I received a response the same day, so I suppose the one star is for their timely response. The ring I fell in love with isn't available for "client supplied stones". I'm good love. My diamond has a great deal of sentimental value. I won't downgrade or upgrade for the sake of getting one of their rings. I look forward to working with a designer who understands this. read more

My husband wanted me to get a special piece of jewelry for our 45th wedding anniversary. After doing MUCH online research, we choose Victor Canera for the project of a three stone ring. Victor helped me pick out one of his signature cut cushions for the center stone, and then he picked out the side stones to complement it. I trusted his eye because I've seen many of his masterpieces online, and I knew he would get it right. To say he got it right is an understatement! The proportions he chose are perfect, the craftsmanship is impeccable, and the diamonds themselves are topnotch. As lovely and perfect as the ring itself is, working with Victor was the icing on this sparkly cake! He is very attentive to detail, and patient with questions and suggestions. He explains everything to your satisfaction in a professional, yet warm way. Even though we never met in person, and the whole project was done via email, he spent enough time with me so that I felt perfectly confident in the choices I was making. I cannot recommend Victor Canera and his team highly enough. You will not be disappointed in choosing them for any jewelry project that you have in mind! read more

8/10/2020 response to VC's comment: Treat people not because of who they are but because of who you are. Your response below tells me a lot about you and your business. There are many lies in the message below. For example, there were no calls returned within your promised timeframe. There were no "constant calls" and I called only once a day to follow up. Your admin screened calls for you and had me leave a message, which I did, but I still received no calls after many days. Leaving people hanging in the middle of discussing about next steps after sending the quote equates to treating people without respect. You paid no respect to people's time and energy involved with misleading information regarding sourcing your own stones in the process. That's the "shit" I was referring to in your response. Using George Floyd as an excuse is such a SHAME. How long would it take you to shoot a quick email anyway? Luring people into conversations by sending a quote and then dropping people right there when you found out they are not so easy to fool with your uncompetitive inventory and pricing, which is pretty shady practice in my opinion. People should be made aware of this practice so that they don't waste their time and energy here. That's why I posted this review. For Yelpers reading this review, I highly recommend you to do a thorough research across reputable diamond sites to compare before you make a decision for the best value for yourself. read more

Love my ring from Victor, shines like crazy and it is exactly what I wanted. He went above and beyond to find my perfect diamond! From our first call, we knew he was knowledgeable and someone we can trust. Although we are in the Bay Area, Victor mailed different ring settings so I can compare. A ring is a huge purchase so make sure you go with an expert! read more

Victor has great customer service. I primarily worked with Nicholas, and he was prompt and professional - though, I think more on the professional and administrative side than someone that would offer advice or really affirm worries (jewelry costs a lot!!). Overall, it was a great experience, even hit a snag with another ring I was having made from another vendor, and Victor lent a kind ear and assured that the ring would be perfect and it really was!! I'd recommend Victor to anyone that is willing to put their trust in a master craftsman. read more

Fantastic, top tier jeweller. Higher quality diamonds, cuts and pieces than you could get out of Tiffany's or HW for any remotely comparable price, with love and attention to detail. Victor Canera helped guide me through a complex process involving sourcing from rough, custom cutting (vintage cushion) and custom setting, remaining patient (our email threads added up to hundreds of back and forths) and offering wonderful advice. The final piece is utterly stunning, and I really couldn't ask for better craftsmanship or customer care. I will absolutely go through Victor Canera again if he'll have me! read more

Victor Canera has now made two rings for us and both have been beyond any expectation. The first was a recreation of a sapphire estate ring that I just loved but had become so worn that the stones would not stay in the setting. He recreated the ring in a way that I would have never imagined and I simply adore it. Next he reset my 3 stone diamond ring for my 25th wedding anniversary. To say he again out did himself is an understatement. The elegance of the setting and the ring are so beyond my expectations. Trust Victor with your project and receive a work of art. read more

My experience with Victor Canera has been nothing less then excellent. Nicolas Abbondante worked with me to build a custom ring for my fiancé and I'm afraid that she loves the ring more then she loves me. He did an excellent job of asking the right questions and making it perfect. I am very particular about everything and anything that I pay for and they were very patient in dealing with me. The cost for the engagement ring was very reasonable and shipping was fast. I had such a great experience with them that I've decided to purchase a wedding band from Victor Canera as well. I'll post a pic of the engagement ring to show the quality and workmanship. You seriously can't go wrong with this company. read more

Victor reset my existing diamond in one of his amazing Emilya halos. When I received the ring via FedEx, I was truly awestruck by how beautiful and delicate the setting was. The workmanship is spot on. I gave Victor no additional instruction, just ordered the Emilya and he did the rest. The entire process was super easy and the result = perfection. I am so happy that I made the decision to go with Victor and hope to work with him again in the future. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone (and I am very picky about my jewelry)!! read more

I cannot express how impressed I am with Victor and Team. I had high expectations/requirements for the engagement ring and they delivered. Words truly don't describe the beauty of Victor's pave set in a hand forged platinum setting. I wish I would have found Victor from the start, but unfortunately I had to go through three bad experiences with jewelers prior to finding him.

Victor was very kind to help reset my stone in one of his gorgeous settings (the Julia with no pave). Nicholas and Nathan were very helpful over livechat and provided detailed instructions on how to mail in the stone and complete the work order. They also messaged me immediately when the stone arrived safely. I tracked the progress of the work order through their site, and received the new ring in hand exactly a month via overnight FedEx (the ETA was 6 weeks). I am loving the ring's proportions, from the shank with uniform width, the small donut that I requested to be added later on, to the solid and elegant 6 prongs and tiny eagle claws. It isn't perfectly symmetrical like a CAD piece, but is obviously handmade with a lot of quality and care. Hope to one day work with Victor and team again for an anniversary! read more

My first engagement ring is from HW. This year, we decided to upgrade it. I purchased the diamond and had it set by Victor, I am so happy about the result. The ring is so stunning! Even his video online doesn't do its justice. If I have heard of Victor earlier, I would not spend that much money for a branding, there are even more unique setting options. Highly suggest you to check Victor out before shopping with those big names. read more

I've been a fan of VC for years and years! His Emilya halo is something made by the jewelry gods. Victor, are you a god? Maybe a demi-God? He hand makes his jewelry all by hand, and that in it of itself is a lost art. I am so excited to now own his engraved platinum band as my wedding band, and CAN'T WAIT for my fiancé to slip this on my finger for life in just a few short months. Thank you VC and Tim!!!! read more

Victor Canera is to diamond halos what Lamborghini is to automobiles. As I gawk at my beautiful Emilya double-halo cushion setting, I can't help but wonder what it must feel like as an artisanal jeweler to be compared to the likes of Harry Winston. Is it a compliment? Or would an artist prefer to have his masterpieces stand on their own merits? Just as Ford (in the U.S.) and Benz (in Europe) are arguably the first to invent the automobile, would anyone classify a Lamborghini as "just" a car? Absolutely not. While I have often read that Canera's Emilya setting is a perfection of Winston's "The One" setting, I see Canera's Emilya as not only his magnum opus, but a jewel that is a perfect blend of an artist's expertise, eye for detail, and exceptional craftsmanship. Moreover, his customer service and speed of communication are rare qualities not often found today. Nicholas, the Marketing Manger, has to be commended here. I read plenty of Pricescope threads trying to determine what setting I wanted for my diamond, and this is how I found Victor. It took me several more months to decide on which style I wanted, when I finally decided on the Emilya double-row cushion halo for a round center stone. After receiving my online quote, I shipped my diamond to Victor (I live in the Bay Area). Mind you, the majority of my communication was done via email, quite unusual for me, as I tend to be a control freak when it comes to details. I was not in the least worried that my diamond was in good hands, and I completely trusted Victor in making the best Emilya to his eye, for my stone. I didn't ask how long it would take, I had no special requests... simply, complete faith and confidence in Victor's reputation. Three weeks later (to the day), my ring was delivered via FedEx, just in time for Valentine's Day and four years after my fiancé first proposed. My diamond has found its forever halo. Though this review may seem contrary, I am speechless. My 2 carat modern round brilliant is surrounded by the most exquisite halo, with workmanship that is far superior to ANY setting I have ever laid eyes on. This includes 4 years of searching and having worked in the fine jewelry and watch business myself. The pavé is so fine, pictures cannot do the ring justice. It is something that has to be seen to be believed. Victor cannot be compared to Harry Winston or any other well known name. Let's face it, anything that has a "name" attached to it, is inherently mass produced. Nothing mass produced can ever show the love and care an artist puts into his work. Victor is in a class of his own, the crème de la crème. Thank you Nicholas, for creating a wonderful customer experience. Thank you Victor, for creating a jewel for me that will stand the test of time. read more

I agree with the reviewer below that you normally wouldn't purchase a stone and ring without seeing it first.

If I could give 10 stars I would. Victor Canera's skill, artistry, and eye for proportions is just impeccable. You really can trust him. His jewels are hand forged and simply stunning.

I went to Victor Canera for my fiancee's engagement ring and had a very positive experience. I live in Los Angeles, so I was able to go Downtown to meet with Victor in-person. It was super quick and painless setting up a meeting and he is super responsive. My fiancee and I knew that we wanted to get the Emilya Halo but weren't quite sure about the actual diamond. He showed us a couple different options and gave us some pros and cons about each diamond. We ended up choosing one and I picked up the ring a few weeks later. He isn't pushy about choosing X or Y diamond and you really feel at ease. I didn't know anything about diamonds and he came off very educational and was super friendly. The final product was really beautiful and you can tell that it's really well made. Victor is really great to work with and I highly recommend him and his work! read more

Victor went above and beyond to help me get the perfect engagement ring and it came out beautiful. After having a bad experience when I first began looking, Victor made everything very easy and honest. The workmanship on the ring is amazing and my now fiancé is in love with the ring. To anybody having doubts about whether or not you should be buying a diamond/engagement ring online, I urge you to give Victor a chance to prove he is up to the task. I live in Long Island and was obviously a bit concerned at first about buying the diamond/ring without ever seeing it in person. Victore was very honest and upfront about how everything would work and what I was getting. He told me it would take up to three weeks to finish the ring and ship it to me and I actually got it sooner than expected and it was shipped overnight to me for pickup at a local Fed-Ex (for insurance purposes). You will not be disappointed in what Victor and his brand has to offer!! read more

Victor was an absolute pleasure to work with. Since I bought an engagement ring from him right in the middle of the pandemic, I was incredibly nervous--you normally don't want to make such a substantial purchase without meeting your jeweler or seeing the ring in person. From my initial inquiry over email to actually receiving the ring itself as a certified delivery, Victor put me at ease and was there to answer any and all questions I had. The result is amazing and exactly what my (now) fiancé wanted. I can't recommend Victor highly enough! read more

Here's the deal. Our 20 year wedding anniversary. Big deal. My wife knew she wanted something out of this world but couldn't really nail down what she wanted. So I make an appointment, go see Victor. All I could tell him was she liked Old Mine Cut diamonds. That's it. Victor then takes over from there, figured out generally how they should be arranged on an anniversary ring, finds 3 ridiculously ideal diamonds and then purely using mind reading techniques, Victor designs a 3 stone band that blew our socks off. Perfect workmanship and design, pleasure to deal with, just the best experience. 6 stars. read more
