Harriet Dorn Jewelry

I found the, "Tiny Gold Drop Necklace" on the website for a gift and called the store to see if it was in stock and get some details about it. Spoke to "Victor" at length about the price ($250.00), materials used and availability. After she spoke to the designer, Steven Hanna, she advised me that it was in store, so I agreed to be there at opening time the next day.

Five minutes later I decided to look again, only to find to my dismay that the price had magically gone from $250.00 to $316.00. I immediately called Victor back who seemed equally surprised and advised me that, "We are having some trouble with the website and it has probably gone up due to the increase in the price of gold". I asked her if she would honor the original price we had discussed and which had been on the website not five minutes before which was $250.00, to which she replied a resounding, "No".

I have purchased several items from this store before but I advise any buyer to beware of arbitrary price changes. A huge 26.4% price increase within five minutes is not only unacceptable it is bordering on daylight robbery.

I read about this Jewelry store in Santa Monica and since it's near to where I live I went to visit it. Their staff was very welcoming and friendly. I've always wanted a pendant of the land of Israel custom made, and after meeting with their design staff, I ordered it and can't wait until it's finished. I did see the almost finished pendant and was absolutely thrilled with how it's coming along. It's everything I've ever wanted and it is truly beautiful, incredible craftsmanship. I recommend Accents Jewelry to anyone looking for a GREAT Jewelry Store.

Could not have been any nicer to a guy just walking in from the Street. Was looking to buy my wife some jewelry for a birthday and 10th wedding anniversary. After running away from other jewelry stores in the same city I tried this place. Was happy to give these sweet girls my business. Very helpful. absolutely no pressure. Good for them. They deserve my (your) business. M

Ordered a necklace for my wife to be sent to Scotland. Super fast deliver and fantastic customer service. Cant thank Accents staff enough

The store is a neighborhood gem. The girls that work in the store are very kind, patient and professional. I have purchased jewelry, had repairs and gold plating done. If you are in the area, be sure to treat yourself or pick up the perfect the gift.

Marie helped me with a small jewelry design project and she couldn't have been more friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I am very happy with my piece and this great little shop.

I look around and consider other jewelers, but I keep coming back to have rings made here. They are just perfect. Years ago, a ring caught my eye as an engagement ring, and now we have 5 rings from Steven Hanna. His work is so beautiful.

Have had several rings sized here. They've always done a great job with friendly customer service. Had to take one back for resizing as it was a weird shape, but they worked with me to get it right and shipped it back to me within a short time. Thank you! Great place.

When a small business does it "right, " it should be of note. Even before the current pandemic, the staff at Accents has been both knowledgeable and professional for years! And now, during this stressful time, Accents insures their customers are protected and still the friendly and professional way of their doing business persists. Accents is a small, retail staple on Main Street. When you visit their store, you'll immediately know why!

Helpful, cheerful employees who don't pressure you to buy anything. Lots of beautiful jewelry to choose from in all price ranges plus you support a local small business.

I think the best way to begin this review is simply stating that this is my favorite store in Santa Monica (and that is not an easy statement to make). I have visited Accents for over 11 years religiously and each time I stop by, I end up buying something for a family member, friend or better yet.myself. At first, I was drawn to the different jewelry designer's exhibited in each display case.

I liked the ides of local artists showcasing their own work in one shop. After a few visits, I started to realize that I had favorite designers. I began to work with the staff to request old designs that were no longer available from those specific designers. to which I would begin placing personal orders. Moving on from personal orders, I dreamed up a few ideas and worked with some of the staff and they actually created pieces based on my direction.

Not only would I order one of these pieces, I would come back and order more of my designs for others. I even had a friend who worked for Macy's ask where I got my necklace and I said that I designed it. The staff. no matter what I have asked for. the staff has accommodated (and that is saying alot). From fixing broken pieces that I purchased in the store to fixing broken pieces of jewelry that were passed down to me from family members, the staff always helped me find a solution.

If they could not provide a solution, they pointed me in the right direction to have the item fixed by a reputable contact. At one point I was robbed and had to replace a number of pieces and the staff helped me go through each item and create a database of my purchases for the insurance company. I have brought so many family and friends into the store to buy as a result of the kindness and friendly nature of Steven and his staff. Friends of mine who live everywhere from NY, CT and MD to FL, CO and even abroad in Ireland have said to me, I would really just like a small gift from Accents for my birthday or could you buy me a small gift from Accents to give to a friend?

Their reputation surely precedes themselves. My favorite purchase was a college friend (guy) who I never thought would every get married. Without my encouragement, he purchased his engagement ring from Accents. He knew that I knew jewelry and that I frequented the store. He could afford Tiffany's, Cartier, etc and in the end, he chose Accents because he wanted to support small businesses on Main Street and because of their unique men's engagement rings (Titanium for him).

I would like to suggest that during these difficult times that we remember these boutique stores filled with character that highlight local artisans in community. In an effort to contribute to the re-opening, I have been working with the owner to order a few items. I would highly recommend that you reach out and speak with Steven directly. He is such a kind soul and would be happy to source anything your heart may desire.

My absolute favorite jewelry store in Los Angeles for SO many reasons. Not only is the quality of all the jewelry top notch, but the customer service is outstanding. Steven and his apprentice designers are extremely helpful, personable and motivated to find the perfect piece for you. I recently sent in an order for a customized necklace and Steven got back to me the same day and made sure to listen to my preferences.

He offered amazing suggestions and managed to create my dream necklace even during the COVID-19 crisis. I will be wearing it every day! Overall I highly recommend this Santa Monica boutique and it is especially important to support local, small businesses at the moment! Can't wait to go back again soon!

Accents has been a Main Street staple for as long as I can remember. The jewelry is not only beautiful, but local artists are supported and showcased. They have amazing jewelry. I keep coming back because of Steven and everyone that works here. All are warm, creative and most helpful. I am welcomed and remembered every time I come in. They also do amazing and very well priced repairs. I will always support this family owned shop. I can't wait until you reopen your doors. Wendy V

This is tough one for me because I bet the class has already changed. It was a long drive and it's a slow process that they teach. I know a lot of people including myself who like surf and skate culture. I just think that I was taken in the wrong direction creatively and that I was over exposed in the class. When will artists support artists? It's hard to land on your feet when there's nothing to land on. I was hoping to make something original and salable not something that would be mass produced. Tyson has great work and I would stick with him if you need any guidance.

After years of taking business to this store and sometimes dealing with hiccups, my last visit and interaction Steven who is apparently a very experienced 30-year old jeweler and owner is this store was horrifying to say the least. I will leave out the rude, dishonest and patronizing treatment I endured from Steven not only in person but via texts as well.

What a waste of my time. After a phone conversation with Carly who is one of the nice salespeople working at this store, she told me she would find out the estimate for doing it the "easy way" (that Steven had actually kept pushing on me and yet charging me higher). Apparently Steven realized he couldn't trick me and because I questioned the way Steven who kept forcing me to do it his way, he "thinks I'd be happier taking my bracelet elsewhere" Great, I'm more than happy to take my business elsewhere, some place where they would actually listen to and value clients, and not overcharge by playing mind games and tricks on clients.

Owner Steve has been serving the westside for 30+ years on Main st. Any time of day or night count on a professional jeweler to be there to help with basic repairs to custom creations all your jewelry needs handled.

We've purchased beautiful necklaces and earrings at Accents Jewelry Design. But today we went in because my daughter broke a necklace clasp. They were wonderful and fixed it at no charge. Great customer service! Love Accents Jewelry Design!

Bought 14K gold hoops and love them! Super lightweight and don't even feel like I'm wearing them, and for a great price of about $200ish. Definitely a great value for the quality and would come back.

Accents is a gem of a jewelry store. I love all of the unique and hand-made pieces they carry and they have a great variety of styles and their prices start at a very affordable range. They have beautiful heirloom and "investment" pieces, too. My boyfriend goes there often to shop for my birthday/holiday gift and they always help him pick out just the right thing, and were great about exchanging a necklace once that wasn't quite my style. Their selection rotates often so I always enjoy stopping by to check out what's new. Hands-down my favorite jewelry store.

I had a great experience at Accents Jewelry. I was looking for a jeweler to create a custom ring for my girlfriend. Steven and his team did an amazing job! I wasn't exactly sure what I wanted, but after discussing a few ideas with Steven and his managers, we finalized the concept. I just picked up the ring today, and couldn't be happier (my girlfriend feels the same way). If you're looking for a great jeweler and jewelry store in Los Angeles, I suggest stopping here first.

Very disappointed with this place. My husband went here to get my father's twenty-five year old wedding band resized to fit him. We got it back shortly, but just four days after one of the diamonds had fallen out. When we took it in, they were hesitant but accepted to fix it. The next surprise was that the new diamond is now smaller, and is a different color possibly because of the material they used to fuse it in place. The have beautiful jewelry, but don't expect them to fix their mistakes properly.

Accents Jewelry is a most Unique Store/Gallery showcasing many of Steve Hanna's students over the years. Steve has taught thousands of Jewelry Artists. Many of which have gone on to be well known professionals. A must see for the Jewelry Lover who truly appreciates Top Quality Original creations. David Rasnick

I stopped in for the first time yesterday and was blown away at all the beautiful creations! The staff was extremely friendly and talented. They had options for women, men and children. Reasonable prices. absolutely perfect!

My girlfriend and I had a great shopping experience at Accents! The staff, Paige and Caroline helped us out with product selection and were very friendly. Overall great shopping experience, highly recommended!

Steve Hanna is a beautiful, creative, lovely soul: an artist, a mentor and a mensch. My spouse and I first found Accents when looking for our engagement rings and have kept coming back for the last 12 years. The other people working at Accents are lovely and the store features local artists, many of whom have studied with Steve. We have found beautiful artistic jewelry at Accents and especially love our pieces handcrafted by Steve. Check it out!

I finally got a chance to go into this shop the other day. I always walk by it on Main street and thought I should go in there! I was looking specifically for a gift for my 2 year old niece who is getting baptized. I wanted a silver cross, something simple and that she could wear now if she wants. I found 3 separate pieces and added them, with the help of Jennifer (I think? JK is written on the receipt name).

She is a friendly blonde who found just what I was looking for: a silver children's chain, a silver cross (simple but elegant), and a letter 'O' for my niece's name Ophelia. I spent $ 44.90 which I think is a good deal for quality sterling silver, which Jennifer polished at my request. Gift wrap is simple but attractive. It's great to support small businesses where custom and unique pieces are offered at competitive prices, minus the crowds and annoyances of nearby SM Place and 3rd Street Promenade stores. I would go back for my own jewelry shopping and gifts in the future!
