Recent Customer Reviews
I picked up a wedding band for myself and got a few pieces of my fiancee’s jewelry repaired. When the band came in it was too small, and I needed a quick return and replacement. Rick Ramadan provided excellent service and was able to turn everything around quickly and at a good price.
My fiance and I both got our wedding bands from Rick Ramadan. He was extremely helpful and very professional. He worked with in our budgets to help us find bands that we loved and didn’t settle for. My fiance also worked with Jana Krnacova for my engagement ring. Jana was extremely helpful as well. We have recommended all our friends to go here and work with either Jana or Rick.
