  1. Poor customer service, Major Delays, Huge Disappointment, Avoid this Jeweler
  2. The staff - Ruth, Phylis and Craig repeatedly failed to pay me after the ring sold.
  3. Incredible service and unbeatable selection
  4. Combine that with the custom process of design that they offer, friendly staff, and a shopping experience of true Chicago class and character, my choice was simple.

Like part of your family!

by tracy4227 at Citysearch

What an amazing experience! We have had three custom pieces of jewelry made here and I can't tell you how beautiful they are! Craig and his mother are wonderful, they bring you in like part of the family. Craig worked so hard to make our pieces perfect! Everyone should get their estate and custom jewelry here!

My ring is beautiful!

by H Horwitz at Citysearch

I am absolutely thrilled with the work done on my ring. Craig was interested and helpful in creating a new look. No surprise this family owned establishment of 112 years is going strong. Thank you Horwitz.

Amazing custom creations, great service!

by Rob Sherman at Citysearch

Best jeweler that I've ever been to. Knowledgeable, great selection of product. If he doesn't have it, he'll get it. Always gets repairs right, and at a fair price.

Not Really Impressed

by Bargainhunter75 at Citysearch

My fiancee and I visited this showroom on Michigan avenue a while back in hopes of making a purchase.

We were disappointed...it started with amount of time we were kept waiting in a showroom with only two other people there but then weren't really much impressed with the goods or selection.

This jeweler doesn't have much in the way of inventory to show you...there is alot of older jewelry for sale (I guess that's known as "estate" jewelry?) We weren't really in the market to make a used ring purchase.

After speaking with the owner, we found him a bit of a character...he's very talkative, but seemed to be a bit of a "know it all" and was maybe just a little too anxious in his pursuit of a sale.

I guess we were expecting more than what we found...the website we visited beforehand appeared impressive...but the overall experience wasn't.

We did find a jeweler who exceeded expectations on jeweler's row (we won't embarrass this business by using their name) so we are happily on our way to planning the other events of our wedding.

Reliable, Quality Jeweler

by hmh5 at Citysearch

My husband and I bought our wedding rings from Craig last winter. We were both impressed by his thoughtful approach to designing bands that would compliment my engagement ring as well as his demonstrated integrity while conducting business. We returned to Craig to have my antique engagement ring cleaned; it came back looking better than new. It is important to us that we support honest businesses that offer great products and services. H Horwitz is definitely on our list of businesses we will continue to support.
