I was looking around at local jewelry shops to have a custom engagement ring made and was finding…read morethe process very stressful and full of information that contradicted itself. After visiting half a dozen other jewelry shops I walked into Jewels on Lake and I knew that I was in the right hands, and that this is the man who I want to design and make my ring. From the moment I walked in, Sam made me feel at home, he was very confident, professional, and completely transparent about his process from start to finish. I visited his shop five times with questions before I finally gave the go ahead to proceed with a ring design and never once did he make me feel like a burden or that I was wasting his time. The ring that he made was beautiful and my partner loved it. I could not recommend Sam enough and I wish that I went to him first when I began my journey in finding an engagement ring.

We officially got married yesterday and everyone from the ring bearers down to our close family and…read morefriends LOVED my wife's ring stack. The custom ring band I had the chance to custom order after collaboration with Oscar was also a huge hit amongst the guys, with the tortoise shell finish carefully enclosed by a solid ring both above and below catching their attention. Oscar's craftsmanship is superb. We left with no doubts in our mind that my wife would love her ring stack throughout the seasons of life to come because we had pleasure to shop both the band and engagement ring through Oscar. Additionally, I have a story to tell about designing my own wedding band. Truly a win-win!

I discovered Homage during a walking tour of Pasadena, and I'm so glad I did! The store may be…read moresmall, but it's packed with amazing finds. The jewelry is handcrafted, and many pieces include the artist's name and a short bio, which adds such a personal touch. They also carry candles, bags, greeting cards, and products for men, women, and children. The variety is impressive, and I especially appreciated the large selection of handcrafted items. The associates are friendly, welcoming, and genuine. I was greeted as soon as I walked in, and I noticed they recognized and acknowledged repeat customers. That's impressive, especially considering the number of tourists who visit the store. Another thing I appreciated is that they don't overwhelm you with emails. Their emails are event-focused and purposeful, which is refreshing. You're paying for quality, craftsmanship, and unique items you won't find just anywhere. The prices reflect the specialty merchandise they carry and the care that goes into selecting it. Parking... well, it's Pasadena! It can be challenging, with mostly metered street parking and paid parking garages nearby, but it's a pleasant walk to the store. I highly recommend Homage! It's a wonderful place to find unique gifts or treat yourself to something special.

The sales rep who was working was unfriendly, rude, unprofessional and didn't greet customers. It was a lack of skills and Gorjana needs to do better in the hiring. When you're in retail there should be a level of professionalism. Prior to walking into the store there were some customers who walked out and forewarned others walking by the store. I suggest shop at Mejuri instead.

Garen was very upfront, professional, and confident.

The finished work came out beautiful. The sizing looks clean, the ring fits perfectly, and the price was very reasonable for the care involved. It was definitely worth the longer drive.

I read the reviews on Valia and took a chance -- I brought it all in and they could not have been kinder, more professional and honest.
