I heart ABC Jewelry Co.- Rave
Hey Ladies,
I just thought I would let you all know about a WONDERFUL experience that I had with ABC Jewelry Co in downtown Portland. I originally went to ABC to get a second opinion on what a local one-stop-shopping jeweler had said was wrong with my ring. ABC Indicated that there was nothing wrong with my ring and that it was the nature of the design and that to continue to putting money into a repair that was never going to keep, was wasting my money. I appreciated their honesty and they never even sold me a thing.
Rewind to about 5 years ago when we were planning our wedding. My DH and I were originally intending to take diamonds from my grandmother and my moms diamond and put it into a ring that I would wear for my wedding set. However, due to budget constraints (we were pinching our pennies HARD to have the wedding we wanted), and then some excuses from jewelers and designers that what I wanted wasn't possible, the stones of different colors couldn't be put in the setting I wanted, we gave up.
Fast forward to three weeks ago: I was sitting on the train and it hit me, that I should find a picture of what I want, bring in mom and grandma's stones into ABC and see what they could do. Well, I am HAPPY to say that they took one look at the design I wanted, and diamonds I had from the inherited rings and said it was most definitely do-able. Seven days later I got my ring back. Now I have my moms diamond in the center, surrounded by eight of my grandmother's diamonds, in a design I wanted five years ago. I went to ABC to pick it up yesterday and I just started crying. They did SUCH an amazing job and I just felt SO happy that I could finally have these special stones as part of my wedding set.
If you're looking for repairs, special design, or just diamonds and gold, I highly recommend this place! Also, I know of a few others who highly recommend this place for your diamond needs. Stephanie is very helpful and Ali is too. I hope this helps!
