The only place I ever go for jewelry! Everyone there makes you feel like family and they genuinely care about your wants, needs, likes/dislikes so you know you can trust them with your vision for custom pieces. They are SO PATIENT and kind, not to mention they create and carry by far the most quality and unique jewelry anyone could ask for. Aurum has played a huge part in some of the most special moments in my life and I can't imagine working with any other group. They have truly made my dreams come true. Love love love this shop and everyone there THANK YOU AURUM!

I have been doing business with Aurum since I was in college in the 90's. I recently lost my son and I took his earrings to them to make necklaces for his two sisters. Jessica was wonderful and had some great ideas. I picked them up today and they are beautiful. Thank you as always for being a wonderful business to work with and providing unique pieces of jewelry.

Twenty two years ago, my fiance bought my wedding band at Aurum Studios-a beautiful Celtic knot band that I have looked at over these wonderful years every day and thought about our love for each other, our lives intimately entwined like the ropes in the knot. So, when the band got damaged, I knew I could trust the fine jewelers at Aurum to do the repairs. Thank you so much, Tricia and crew, for your amazing service and outstanding work!

All the people at Aurum were absolutely wonderful, especially Melanie who understood exactly what I was asking for and was able to give me exactly what I wanted when other jewelers weren't able to. I can't thank them enough for fixing my engagement ring and restoring it to its original beauty. Thank you!

Aurum is a great local jeweler! We have used them for the past 20 years from resetting rings, resetting diamonds, and buying new jewelry. Everyone that works there is super friendly, they remember your name and always helpful. If they do not have a certain piece of jewelry, they are quick to look in their other store. Such nice people! We will use them another 20 years!

I went to Aurum with a large sapphire I had been given and asked them to design a ring for me. I highly recommend work done by jewelry designer, Melanie, who listened carefully to my input. She was patient in offering pictures, providing suggestions and allowing me to try on wax models throughout the design process. As a result, I have a ring I truly love. In fact, I'm so fond of Melanie's work that I've asked her to design a pair of earrings for me now.

Exceptional customer service! I ordered a ring online for my husband that ended up being alittle too big. Went to Aurum and Dennis took the time to go over some ways that might work with stainless steel to make it smaller. He was so helpful with such a caring attitude. I so appreciate good customer service these days and kindness! Picked up the ring today and now my husband can enjoy wearing it. Thank you Aurum Studios. I will definitely be back!

Dennis created the most beautiful vintage bezel setting for my engagement ring diamond! I have a very unique filigree wedding band and he was able to create a design on the ring so they would match and be a set. The ring he made actually even better than I had imagined! Everyone at the shop is kind and passionate about what they create. I have moved across country to California, and they will always remain my jeweler.

I drive one and a half hours to get to this fantastic jewelry store and gallery. I am always greeted with friendly hellos and an eagerness to help find whatever I need. The jewelry is gorgeous and very well made. The store has gorgeous pieces featuring local artists as well as established and well known artists. The owner takes her time in working with you and helps you to find just what you need at the price you can afford. Every piece is extremely well made. This store is really a jewel and I highly recommend it!

I had visited a few jewelers around town to work with my unique engagement ring, and none were truly helpful. I visited Aurum on a friend's recommendation, and I am so glad I did. I spoke with designer Stephen Hollis for 45 minutes on a sale that was likely less than $1000. He didn't seem at all concerned about how much I was going to spend, but was instead quite excited about the creative challenge of my engagement ring and wedding band.
He was warm, friendly, and kind - everything that I needed and could have wanted. We will be doing all our jewelry business with Aurum for as long as we are in Athens. I highly recommend their business.
