Our story begins when Andrew's father, affectionately known as Papa, came to America from Poland with his young bride after having served on the Polish Division of the Royal Air Force in World War II. Using the GI Bill, he went to school to learn watch making, and in 1949, opened his first jewelry store in New York. Over time, Papa's single store grew and expanded into New Jersey, where Papa moved with his wife, Margaret, and their four children. Andrew, the eldest son, grew up in the business, helping stock displays and clean the cases from a young age.

Scott and the entire team are an absolute "gem" to work with (pun intended)! Everyone is friendly, helpful, accommodating, and delightful to work with. And the jewelry is stupendous. Some of my favorite pieces ever. I frequently get complimented on my engagement ring and always give credit back to Scott. and my husband of course! Must come in for a visit if looking for a special piece of jewelry. Thank you Andrew Z family for always taking care of us.

I contacted Austin at Andrew Z to help me purchase an engagement ring, and the joyful experience was unexpected and amazing. It was everything I could've hoped to see and find. Now I'm convinced there is so much more to the art of fine jewelry. Thanks for making this stage in my love life easy, informative, and ideal!

If you are considering making a visit to Andrew Z, DO IT! I couldn't be happier. A Diamond had fallen out of my ring and I needed it to be re-sized as well. Stephanie, Scott and Jessie were so helpful and amazing. I was able to have my Diamond replaced, my ring re-sized, cleaned, and we also put a "jacket" on my wedding and engagement bands. I was extremely happy with the workmanship and quality of work that was done. everyone is so friendly and the atmosphere is welcoming. I will always bring my jewelry to Andrew Z and make my purchases here moving forward.

We were looking to have a ring made with my birthstone (Tsavorite, a green garnet) in a unique setting. Scott Zychowski found gemstones for us to choose from at various price points before executing the design flawlessly. Absolutely thrilled with the level of detail, right down to the seamless transition from white to yellow gold on the leaf accents. Andrew Z's is definitely the place to go for gorgeous custom work!

Scott had great honest advice about what to do with my wedding set since I've lost the diamond out of it now for the 3rd time. (Not from here). Instead of selling a bigger and better ring, he gave me a few options and talked me through what may be the best option for me at this time. The newly serviced set looks just like it did the day I got married 15 years ago. I am very happy with everything.

They are always grateful for your patronage, they take time to know you, which is pretty rare these days. Jewelry is such a personal gift. AndrewJewelry is a personal place. Thank you for all you do in the community and all you do to guide me in my selections while staying in budget..

Had to have material added to increase the size of my wedding ring. They not only did a fantastic job with the ring, but the customer service is exceptional! The estimate was spot on, they texted me to keep me informed of the repair status, were proactive in replacing a faulty prong, it was done on time, and every staff member I dealt with was pleasant and knowledgeable! Couldn't ask for anything more.a perfect experience!

Me and my husband are new to the area and bought an engagement ring from a different jeweler a few months back. After a few months, the prongs were weak and we were unhappy. We stumbled across this jeweler on google. WOW! The staff are so helpful and informative and helped us choose a new ring and used our original diamond. The end result is better than I could of imagined. Fits perfect, looks amazing and feel confident wearing it. Stephanie and Austin were top notch. Highly recommend! So happy we found a caring, honest local jeweler!

I just picked up another ring and I absolutely love it! Both my engagement ring and wedding band are from the store and I couldn't be happier. I recently had them create a new ring out of an old high school ring I didn't want anymore. It came out SO perfect! The staff is so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I gave them some ideas and they ran with it. It came out better than I had hoped! I will definitely go back for more in the future!

There service and attention to detail just gets better and better. From the moment I enter I am greeted by a friendly face and never feel like I am in one of those stuffy, pretentious Jewelers. Scott took the time to work with me on the watch I recently received from my Father in laws passing and guided me on the proper maintenance and repairs. Thank you Scott and your team for your continued excellence of service.

This jeweler is amazing! Scott worked tirelessly and patiently with me to create the most perfect engagement ring with my original diamond. I had this idea in my head of a flower that I just had to have. Scott brought my vision to life and created the most stunning ring that I want to walk around with my hand on my forehead to showcase the brilliance and beauty of this stunner. Everyone is amazing and so friendly. If you need any jewelry this is the place to go! I'm a customer for life.

I have NO shortage of wonderful things to say about this business. The entire staff is so friendly, and I've had such great experiences here. I brought my grandmothers antique wedding ring in having no idea what I wanted to do with it. I worked with Scott to have it transformed into the most amazing engagement ring for my wife. Scott goes above and beyond in everything he does for his customers. He's very professional, and experienced, but at the same time it feels like we've been best buds for years.
He remembers me and my wife whenever we come in. This is by far the best business I've ever had the privilege of working with. I will never go to another jewelry store again, under any circumstances. 5 out of 5 stars for everything. Thank you Andrew Z for being awesome!

I have been impressed every time that I have been in Andrew Z, Jewelry.always friendly, helpful and all without sales pressures. Most recently, I had an expensive Swiss made watch that needed a new battery. It has about a dozen tiny screws in the sealed back case. Thinking I would have to send it back to "the factory" for even a simple battery, I contacted Lamborghini.
They replied that if I could find a jeweler who would mark & retain all screws for replacement to the same exact original locations that I could have the standard battery replaced locally. I called Scott at Andrew Z."Yes, this is our standard practice!" A few days later I took in this watch along with nine others and told most competent Alecia that if they were ready in two weeks I'd be happy.
She called the next morning to report they were all ready for pickup! Wow! I love a local business that is professional and has Hustle like Andrew Z. Thank you, Scott, Alecia and Andrew Z. Recommended!

Andrew Z is a family owned jewelry store that came highly recommended by a friend of mine. I found everyone in the store to be friendly and helpful. I worked with Scott to purchase a setting for a diamond engagement ring. I had a very tight deadline, and he was able to order the setting, set the diamond and deliver the product in a week's time. I am thrilled with the final product! The experience at Andrew Z could not have been better!

It feels weird to be a "regular customer" at a business when you only go there once a year at most (generally the holidays or if in need of repairs). However, I consider this place to be "my jeweler". It's a family business (father and son) and they're always friendly and helpful. First started doing business with them when I found a deal on a watch on the internet.
Since they were local I decided to give them a chance to match the price. They had to order it in, but were able to do it and actually saved me money on the exact same item. I've also used them for repairs on more than 1 occasion, and have been satisfied each time. I recommend doing what I did when I bought the watch-if you can spend the same or less money than you would online and support a local family business, why wouldn't you? Besides, they are able to support your purchase in store rather than having to ship things off for service.

I called Andrew Z.'s to ask a few questions and Scott, the owner's son, was very helpful and informative. I described what we were shopping for and Scott found an engagement ring that was in our budget and had everything on our wish list. Scott sat down and spent a good amount of time helping us select the right ring and educating us about some important things we didn't know about diamonds. It's a true family operation with Mr. and Mrs. Z. both working along with their son.
They have a great reputation, and when you interact with them it is obvious why - they are very honest and genuine. They also have a wide selection of Alex and Annie bracelets which I intend to go back for. On that note, they seem to have a wide selection of Jewlery and watches in a wide range of prices. We shopped around and I can assure you their prices are competitive. I highly recommend Andrew Z's for all your Jewlery needs.

A shame I can't give them 10+ stars.my experience with AndrewZ Jewelers in Anthem, AZ was nothing less than amazing! What a delight to actually find integrity, honesty and great customer service in just one place! The charm bracelet check up was by far the most detailed I have ever had. The custom work done by ScottZ is exquisite. You will have my business from this day forward.
Thank you for a stellar experience. Before I left the store, they cleaned my ring and found 2 stones loose that I would have never noticed until I lost one.thank you for being so attentive without even being asked. Thank you. Thank you!
