Jay-Mark Jewelers Over 80 years ago, Simon Karagozian dropped out of school to make charms in Manhattan's famous Diamond District. He was only 15 years old. He honed those skills; found a love and passion for fine jewelry and eventually became a wholesale jewelry manufacturer throughout the 1940s and 1950s. In the late 1960s, he decided to give retail a try and opened his storefront just north of New York City in Cold Spring, NY. Even years ago, Simon had a love for creating. In fact, his first business card for that store read "Simon Karagozian, Jeweler, Specializing in the Unusual."

James at Jaymark Jewelers made my dream engagement ring a reality for my fiance. The level of professionalism couldn't have been higher. I will continue to look toward Jaymark for all of my jewelry needs. They are simply the best around!

Absolutely amazing folks. Went above and beyond in every respect. We simply came in to claim a warranty, but left with a purchase. No sales tactics, just friendly service.

I was having my mother-in-law's faux pearl necklace made into a real pearl necklace. The latch was beautiful and I really wanted to keep it. The staff at Jaymark are absolutely awesome. When I dropped off the old necklace; I accidentally dropped one of my mother-in-law's old earrings in the parking lot. After receiving a call from Their office to tell me the good news that they had found my earring and bad news that it was run over and damaged.

I dropped of the other earring and I asked if they would please fix it. Well COVID-19 was in full swing and I lost track of my earring. I was so very pleasantly surprised to get a call from Michael and remind me that the earring was fixed and ready for me to pick up. The work is so good that I honestly can't tell which one of the earrings was the damaged one.

Thank you guys for the wonderful craftsmanship that made it all possible. One day I hope to pass on these earrings to my mother-in-law's grandchildren. My mother-in-law lives in the jewelry she left me. I feel close to her and miss her but I can still smile every time I wear any of the pieces she left me. Thank you very much. Mrs. Winkler

I was visiting the area and had my wedding rings with me. Haven't been able to wear them ever since I was pregnant (almost 3 years ago.) so I took my chances and did a little research on local jewelers. Jaymark struck me as a good, family owned small business so I went in for a quote. Marissa took great care of me, answered all of my questions, and assured me their jeweler would take great care of my rings. I'm so happy to see them back on my hand, shimmering in the lights again!

Great experience. Friendly, personable and honest. Showed me options and explained differences with no pressure on sales. Any pressure and I honestly would have purchased the cheapest option and left never to return. 1st time purchasing here and I will purchase here again. Thanks Jim.

A wonderful experience with Jim (both) and the rest of their staff. They are experienced and knowledgeable about all things jewelry as well as friendly and easy to work with. I couldn't be happier about the quality of the bracelet I purchased and thrilled by the updated and beautiful art they created with my older pieces. I Highly recommend them.

I have been going to Jaymark Jewelers for several years. I have purchased jewelry there and have had repairs done there. They are professional, understanding, honest and absolutely amazing. They are the only jewelers I trust and go to!

Our experience with Jaymark has been wonderful from start to finish. They are professional, honest, thoughtful and easy to work with. The workmanship is excellent and their designs are inspired. The generational knowledge that has been passed down and built upon is a rare find in a world jaded by internet presentations and point and click purchases.

To be in the Jaymark's showroom with all of the personal attention and service, regardless of how much you are spending, adds so much to the value of what you are buying. Beauty at Jaymark is as much in the process as in the exceptional jewelry they produce.

We've been going here for about a decade or more. Several years ago I brought in a raw stone I bought in Mexico and a design of a ring I had drawn up. They were able to make the ring as drawn and it is one of my favorite rings even today. Previously my wedding ring had 'shrunk' so I wanted a new wedding band but not a normal one. Instead I asked them to replicate a spinner ring I had acquired in Ireland only without the spin.

The did it perfectly and I wear it every day. My wife gets her jewelry cleaned and repaired here as well. A full service jeweler for sure. Over the years I've gotten to know the owner and almost always have great conversations as well. If you need jewelry or something repaired this is the place to go.

Jim and all of his staff are amazing! They go above and beyond to help you find exactly what you're looking for and the jewelry is the absolute highest quality and breathtaking. I purchased a diamond necklace for my daughter's birthday and it is gorgeous! I would not go anywhere else: I would highly recommend Jaymark for all your jewelry purchases. Thanks again!

James and the people at Jaymark are spectacular. They go above and beyond to make your experience a pleasurable one. We had two custom rings made up for our upcoming wedding and couldn't be happier. We'll be returning here for all of our jewelry needs for sure. If you're looking for something special/custom you won't be disappointed. I can't recommend this place enough. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

After a few trips to other jewelers, my boyfriend made an appointment for us to come in today to check out some sapphires and settings for an engagement ring. I specifically wanted a Montana sapphire which they didn't have when we called, but Marissa said they had other types and colors of sapphires so we figured we would stop in and look anyways just for fun.

When we got there today, we found out she had overnighted four Montana sapphires for us to see which was amazing! She was really helpful and patient in the decision process as we looked at the stones in various different lightings. I described to her the setting I had in mind and she found a perfect one. I couldn't find anything like it at the other jewelers we had visited, so it would have had to be custom made.

The best part was they ended up being able to use the setting they had in the store and we were able to pick up the ring only two hours after choosing it! This was amazing since many other places required weeks. Everyone we interacted with was so friendly, excited and passionate. I felt incredibly comfortable and I loved the entire shopping experience.

Stopped in here quickly because I was looking for something to give as a gift. Andrea helped me and was extremely friendly and knowledgeable of the jewelry products! I didn't make a purchase but I plan to stop back in one day next week to make my purchase! Very cute store with gorgeous jewelry!

Nothing short of the best! Jaymark Jewelers was able to craft my wife's custom engagement ring and our custom wedding bands strictly from a screen shot image and a short discussion on what I was looking for. The end product surpassed any of my anticipated results and we couldn't be more happy with our outcome. James and Katie are amazing people and professionals.

They leave you confident that you are getting exactly what you asked for but yet they make the entire experience fun and relaxing. I have nothing but great things to say about Jaymark and I will certainly be back soon. Thank you James, Katie, and the Matero family!

Jaymark Jewelers are great. They were very helpful when it came to designing my husbands wedding band. Everyone who works there is very friendly. I expressed I was new to the area and everyone was giving me tips on good restaurants and things to do. They even helped me to pick out caterers and venues for my wedding. My husband's ring needed to be re-sized and while I was waiting they offered to clean my ring for free. I have only been there a handful of times, but they feel like family. Quality work combined with a friendly atmosphere makes Jaymark the best in the area.

This is the best jewelry store around. I have had pendants, earrings, and rings custom designed by their wonderful staff. I first had jewelry made with mandarin garnets. When I wanted andalusite the sales people in the mall jewelry stores looked at me like my head was on backwards. I went back to Jaymark and they brought in some gems for me to look at.

I then choose what I wanted and came to a decision about the design of the jewlery. When the jewlery was finished it was beautiful. You get what you pay for. I highly recommend Jaymark Jewelers.

I have nothing but good to say about Jaymark Jewelers since they are one of the finest jewelers I have ever done business with. They are a family run business and treat their customers like family. They always go the extra mile and ensure everything is just perfect. When I was in the market for an engagement ring I happened in at just the right moment as Jim was going to be departing for Antwerp Belgium and knew that he would find the diamond cut and size I was looking for to set in the ring I chose. Needless to say Jim went above and beyond as I got a call from him while he was in Antwerp and he had found a flawless diamond which was the cut I was looking for but just a little larger than I had wanted. Knowing him and trusting them I told him that is the diamond for the ring.

A couple of weeks later I got a call that the ring was finished and ready for me to pick it up. Needless to say I was not at all disappointed and very pleased and the ring came in under the price I had expected. Jaymark Jewelers are artists when it comes to creating that perfect piece of jewelry.
