Rolla Gram I brought some gold jewelry here for a loan and Damien did a great job on giving me top $ for the loan. Great customer service and super friendly staff. Highly recommended

Claire Fjord I am a lover of fine jewelry and am always looking for unique pieces to build out my collection. I follow Sofia Kaman on Instagram and really like their work. I went to the store on a Sunday and it was sadly closed. I came back on a Saturday with a friend to do some serious shopping. We came to the door which read "Ring for Bling" and rang the doorbell. There was a couple inside and it looked really quiet. The sales person opened the door and asked if we had an appointment. We said that we didnt but would love to come in. The sales person was very short with us and said that we needed to book an appointment and to come back another time. It was quite shocking that she didnt pause to keep us engaged - like checking their schedule for the rest of the day, taking our contact details, or even locking in an appointment right there. Instead, we were treated with no class and no regard. I understand policy and why they want appointments, but if the sales person took a moment to see who she was being rude to, she would have seen two qualified buyers (Rolex, Bulgari, Cartier, Van Cleef and multiple diamond tennis bracelets and rings between the two of us). The whole experience was so jarring and disappointing. My hope in writing this review is that they will elevate their kindness to match their jewelry.

Richard Graney I recently sold a stone through Heist and subsequently acquired my engagement ring from Heist as well. As someone with little knowledge, it was great to have Heists expertise assisting me through the sales process. And the engagement ring itself turned out absolutely stunningly gorgeous. I highly recommend the store!

Dan Piserchia Incredible service and craftsmanship. Couldn’t have asked for better communication and understanding as he and I designed the engagement ring of her dreams :) Will be a customer for life

Melissa Kelly Having purchased pieces from Claude and saddled him with many items for repair, I can attest that he is pleasant, reasonable and easy to work with. He also has an excellent eye for detail and I trust him implicitly when I am responsible for such finery.

Michelle Hernandez After lunch at Tartine, I stopped by Itay Yona Collection and had a great shopping experience. The jewelry is beautifully handcrafted, and Itay was very accommodating. I found a bracelet I liked but wanted a small adjustment, and he made it for me on the spot. He was friendly and easy to talk to, which made the visit even better. I’m really happy with my new bracelet and look forward to returning next time I’m in the area.

Paula I love working with Azi and her jewelry designs are just as beautiful, as she is. I have made several purchases from Azi over the years and each piece is unique and of the highest quality! I always get so many compliments when I wear them. Azi is always my first stop if I am shopping for myself or gifts for friends and family.

Karol K Loveweld has beautiful high quality and great selection of permanent jewelry. Alizabeth was wonderful, extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I am so happy with my purchase and experience! I’ve been checking out various permanent jewelry locations. Nothing tops Loveweld selection, quality and their friendly staff.

K. M.D Such a beautiful store and history of being in Santa Monica and thriving. I went in to get assistance with untangling a necklace and Michael was beyond patient and kind in helping me! I highly suggest this artistic small business in the Santa Monica Place and hope people keep supporting the Sea of Silver!!!

Hillary Handelsman Working with Matthew was the best decision we ever made. He was so warm, welcoming and easy going through out the whole engagement ring process. He was so honest and asked all the right questions to understand (even better than I did!) what the perfect engagement ring was for me. I could really go on and on! In a world where some jewelers can be pushy and not listen to what you want, Matthew was the exact opposite. We will absolutely be back for all future jewelry needs and highly recommend to everyone!

Amy I truly can’t say enough nice things about this place. I had some new lobe piercings done and it was easy and painless with great jewelry options. The real greatness came when I went in to ask if I should change out the jewelry in my daith I had done at another shop in town that was refusing to heal. They got me fitted with a gorgeous new ring and wouldn’t you know, two weeks later it already looks and feels better than it had for the last eight months! Everyone here is so nice, the jewelry is gorgeous, and they know their stuff. Couldn’t ask for anything better!

Colin Jenkins Outstanding experience from start to finish. My wife had a vision for her engagement ring so I took it to Avo who transformed it into something better than either of us imagined. He made some smart adjustments to the design to fit flush against the beautiful wedding band I eventually went back to him for as well as to craft my own ring. We couldnt be happier with his work and always recommend him to friends and family. Craftsmanship is exceptional and hes a fantastic person to work with every time.
