Great diamonds. It's one thing to see rings on a website; it's another to see them for real. Congratulations for the good quality! I live 50 miles away from Gregg and I drove all the way after a phone call we had that got me excited and I do not regret that trip at all. Gregg was not there when I arrived because he had another appointment to attend he told me about on the phone, but his staff took great care of me in his absence. They treated me very well and he and his brother are real pros. I came back a week later to thank him personally for the good service and for the perfect engagement ring, and he was happy to see me. My wife is delighted, the ring fits her gorgeously and no-one knows engagement rings better than them.” Chad Campbell

He made me the best custom-made ring. If you’re looking for the best wedding ring Michael will help. He’s got one of the finest selections of engagement rings you can find in town. When my best friend asked his girlfriend to marry her last year, I was amazed by the ring he proposed with. I thought when it’s my turn I have got to have such a premo custom-made ring too... So now, my fiancé is delighted, she likes the ring and she’s really happy. She shows it off to friends and family whenever she can and she always talks about me. She’s truly happy and this affects me a lot. Thank you so much for your good advice, your great choice and for the joy and happiness you brought to both of us.

Miracles Do Happen. I was totally devastated when I broke my engagement ring. A friend of mine highly recommended Gregg Helfer. I called immediately, explained what happened, brought in my ring and amazingly he was able to fix it. In less than a week, I had my ring back and it looks better now than when I originally got it. The work he did on my ring is incredible. I have never had a personal jeweler but I do now.

Excellent quality and customer service. Gregg designed an eternity band for my wife, which she loves. He was able to exactly create what she wanted and imagined in a low-key, professional manner. We had an initial consultation with him, reviewed the wax model a week later, and had the finished ring about 10 days after that. Gregg's price was very fair, and the quality was exceptional. We will certainly use him for our future custom jewelery needs.

Simply the best!. I've recently purchased both an engagement ring and wedding bands from Gregg and I can't fully express how impressed I was with both the products themselves and the customer service that Gregg & his staff provided.

Starting from our first meeting, Gregg was honest and upfront with me. He was intentional in gaining my trust and respect while upholding a excellent level of professionalism. Throughout the designing process, Gregg took time to get to know both my fiance and I with the intent to make these rings personal and special. Gregg's ability to remain patient throughout the process while offering quality advice and direction was a common theme throughout the time we spent together. I never felt rushed and appreciated all the time he blocked out for me. Gregg's creative & artistic eye for jewelry is outstanding, and truly exceeded my expectations on many levels.

I gave Gregg some freedom and room for creativity when designing the final ring designs...and it was the best decision I could have ever made. Every aspect of the jewelry is perfect, unique, and customized--its as if Gregg new exactly what I was picturing in my mind. There are no limits with what Gregg can accomplish, he will find a way to make it happen--at times it was as if he and I were a team. Gregg kept me posted on his work via CAD images (visual models/proofs) which allowed us to customize every aspect of the jewelry. On a daily basis, strangers will make a point to stop and comment on her ring with:

>"...you can see that sparkle from across the room!"

>"....that is so elegant and unique."

>"....[gasp] that is beautiful!"

>"....I've never seen anything like that before."

Having such a trustworthy and personal relationship with a very experienced and confident jeweler makes the process that much more enjoyable and stress-free. Gregg will go to bat for you until you finally say, "its perfect, Gregg." I would undoubtedly recommend Gregg to anybody, I promise you won't be disappointed. I will not shop anywhere else for diamonds and jewelry.
