Love my custom engagement ring so much! We came in with an idea of what we wanted but these guys helped us refine the idea and make it even better. I can't speak highly enough of the experience. Mike and Kurt are two of the nicest people you'll ever meet and they know what they're talking about. Thank you Aspen!

To mention a few things that elevated our experience: (A) quick correspondence via emails (B) patience with design and iterations (C) focus on relationship building Absolutely love the lovely piece we received!

Kurt was very kind and helpful when my fiance and I went to in to shop for an engagement ring setting for the sapphire center stone we already had. He listened to what I wanted and pointed us in the right direction without trying to rush us or push us toward something more expensive than we could afford. The final product is simply flawless and gorgeous and we will happily shop there again.

My request was a more specific and special one when I came here and they did a wonderful job. I wanted to put my late Nana's diamonds on a new band and they took their time walking me through all the options. I wasn't spending a ton here but that didn't matter to them and they took care of me just the same. I picked up my ring yesterday and it looks beautiful! They also helped me clean her pearls and it's like a brand new necklace. Thank you to Megan McCinn and other team members that helped.

I was looking for an engagement ring and I saw the 5 star reviews so I had to check them out. Mike greeted me and I am glad he did. I had went into Aspen with the intent of visiting a few places and comparing prices. After talking with Mike I didn't bother looking around. He helped me craft a beautiful custom engagement ring. My fiance LOVES her ring and gets constant compliments on how beautiful it looks. If you're looking for an engagement ring, stop scrolling, stop looking, go to Mike.

During my search for an engagement ring I came across Aspen Jewelry and was greeted by Mike. It was the first store I came across during my search for a ring. I wasn't sure what to expect, but after great costumer service, it didn't take long to realize I wasn't going to another store. I was pleased with Mikes help in helping me craft the perfect engagement ring. Highly recommend Aspen Jewelry.

My girlfriend and I decided to check out some local jewelry stores for an engagement ring, and Aspen is the best by far. The prices and quality of their diamonds are superior to the other locations we visited, and the customer service is superb. Mike Estrada is very cordial, and made the process so relaxing and enjoyable! He has a wealth of knowledge about the topic, was incredibly helpful with all of our questions. Also, the ring was delivered and designed in just two weeks! I cannot recommend Aspen enough!

Bought my engagement ring from Aspen Jewelry Designs and was THRILLED with the ring! Mike was super helpful in discussing different ring options and his customer service was second to none. He kept me up to date as the ring was designed, and they even shipped it out to me in a timely manner. My fiance absolutely loved the ring and we are both so happy to have chosen Aspen Jewelry for this special occasion! I would strongly recommend Aspen to anyone looking for engagement rings! Would give more than 5 stars if I could!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Mike Estrada & team throughout the process. My mom suggested going there when I was back home for a vacation (I live in SF) and she's been going there for years. Buying an engagement ring can be very overwhelming, but they were incredibly knowledgable and helpful in narrowing it down to find what I wanted. They were able to get a variety of additional diamonds in the next day by 11 AM for me to come back and look at since I had some unique specifications I wanted.

I came back the next day and then they had everything custom made as I requested in less than two weeks. I'll be highly recommending them to friends and family. Photos attached!

This was the easiest, smoothest, and most rewarding/fulfilling experience I could have possibly hoped for in my search for an engagement ring. I came to Kurt & Aspen Jewelry Designs with a clear idea of what I wanted, but still in need of some guidance along the way. Their customer service was phenomenal - not only did they bring the design I wanted to life, but they also provided me with expertise on diamond selection and ring structure to ensure the ring would have the small details I wanted paired with strength and durability.

Overall - my experience was not only stress free, it was fun. For anybody who is looking to truly partner with a jeweler to create the design you envision, Aspen Jewelry Designs has my highest recommendations!

I recently bought my fiance her engagement ring from Aspen Jewelry Designs and she loved it! Mike was a huge help. He spent a lot of time with me explaining the differences in engagement rings. It was not a high pressure sales push like I felt with some other big name jewelers. Will definitely be back for any future jewelry needs!

I have gone to Aspen Jewelers for many years to purchase unique pieces for special occasions. This time it was for my teenage daughter's high school graduation gift. With an idea in mind, we walked in and met Erica. Not only was she warm and friendly, but when we told her the design of an Aries constellation pendant my daughter envisioned, she started research right away to ensure she understood my daughter's desire.

From the concept, design, wax model to necklace selection and final product, she communicated with me constantly. She was open, honest, and genuine. My daughter's expression when we picked up her beautiful gift was priceless! Thank you for everything Erica!

Mike Estrada and the team gave me just what I wanted, and even more than I expected. Mike's design expertise turned my idea into a beautiful ring and his colleagues' work on the 3-D printing of the model, the setting of the stones (amazing work on all, even the tiniest one) and the polishing were all beyond my expectations. I highly recommend Aspen Jewelry Designs for custom work as well as for their large selection of beautiful jewelry and engagement rings.

I've been going to Aspen Jewelry for several years now. I first found this great place when I lived in the neighborhood and needed a birthday present for my mom. The employees were very helpful the minute I walked into the store. Months later I went back again because I needed a gift for my girlfriend's birthday. Over time whenever I needed something nice for the wonderful women in my life, I would go there.

This past January I decided to get an engagement ring made for my now fiance. It took me a couple trips back to get the right look and size, but Mike who works there was able to help me get the perfect ring. The employees at Aspen Jewelry are all friendly, helpful, and down to earth. They never try to up-sell anything. I recently went back with my fiance to look at wedding rings. I strongly recommend this place to anyone that needs the right bling for a reasonable price.

We were invited to attend a function at Aspen Jewelry on Saturday evening where Kurt Rose (owner) was introducing his new line of jewelry for next year. The items that he has created are absolutely phenomenal. We have been going to Aspen for over 15 years and have always been extremely satisfied with the service, the quality of the jewelry and the selections available.

They have always been very helpful in helping me pick out items for my wife, which she has throughly enjoyed each one. They have a fantastic variety of unique jewelry from various vendors around the world, plus Kurt has his own designs which he creates and they are truly unique and beautiful. His staff has always been friendly and helpful and willing to work with you to either get a piece fixed or replaced based upon your wishes. I would always recommend Aspen Jewelry to anyone who asks for a place to get unique, fabulous piece of jewelry.

Aspen is an absolutely amazing jewelry store! My fiance and I had the most wonderful experience working with Mike Estrada. He took the time (a lot of time) to help us find the perfect rings for us. Kurt is also a fantastic owner and runs a store full of people that truly care about giving you the best jewelry buying experience. Everyone at Aspen makes the experience of buying jewelry fun, easy, and magical.

Fantastic experience at Aspen Jewelry designs! My anniversary was coming up and I wanted something unique for my wife, who is not into big, flashy, pieces of jewelry and is normally dressed casually. I walked in the store and started looking around a bit and I could tell right away that a lot of the pieces I was seeing were unique. Mike Estrada came over to see if he could help me and asked what I was looking for, and I basically said "ideas", so Mike, who is great to talk with and is excellent at his job, showed me some things, didn't try to sell me the most expensive pieces in the store just because he wanted to make a sale, no, what Mike wanted was to make a customer happy and he did.

I ended up with a very nice necklace for my wife, who absolutely loved it, and has been wearing it for about a month straight. Mike explained to me that Aspen has been around for 25 years, and they create many of their pieces and will be glad to do custom work for you. They have a small area with some discounted pieces that have been in the store a while, and it looked like you could find some great deals there. I've been married for 20 years and now I know where I will go whenever I want to buy my wife some jewelry. Thanks Mike and Aspen- I'm sure I will see you again soon.

My fiance and I visited Aspen originally back in April when we first started seriously talking about getting engaged. Small businesses are something we value a lot, so it seemed like a great fit to come here. We worked with Mike throughout the entire process and he provided great customer service. I had shown him a couple of pictures and talked over what my style was and WOW!

He absolutely nailed it and I couldn't be more pleased with how my ring turned out. When my fiance proposed, it was even more beautiful than any Google or Pinterest image I had found. Ten stars! Highly recommend!

I recently proposed to my girlfriend with a ring I had custom made by Aspen Jewelry Designs. I had a very unique design and I was very specific with what needed to be included, and how I wanted it to look. Megan helped me through every step of the way, gave perfect design advice, and was able to describe exactly what I wanted to the designer. The ring came out better than I ever could have imagined and I'm so happy I chose them.

They were very reasonably priced, and had the whole thing done in 3 weeks, even with some small changes after the initial wax mold came in. I will only use them in the future for more custom jewelry. Thanks again!

It's not very often that you find a jewelry store that you can trust and feel valued at. We visited the store a couple of years ago and received great customer service and a great price. We have since moved over 40 miles away and found ourselves in need of some jewelry service. I told my wife that I would drive back to Aspen and she was a little unsure at first.

As soon as we walked in and was greeted by a friendly smile and no pressure atmosphere she turned and looked at me and said great call James. I can't say enough about Curt and his crew. Great job, keep up the smiles, great customer service, and great pricing. You have a customer for life

Customer service, what's that? Why are some people that work in customer service so inept at providing it? This place. There is a really rude, aggressive guy that works at this store. He is supposed to be the "diamond guy" or something. He has zero customer service skills and no patience. When you walk in, he instructs the women working to help the customer but then he talks over them and interrupts every question to the females with mansplaining and condescending comments.

This guy is an obnoxious jerk who will ruin your shopping experience. Also, he has a disheveled appearance and unsightly ear hair which also makes for an unpleasant trip to the jewelry store.

Love this store! Great service and great selection of both traditional and unusual pieces. Prices seem very fair. I've bought several items and always get tons of compliments. Lovely, lovely jewelry and a real professional but personable staff.

I am so, so, so happy with my experience at Aspen Jewelry Designs. I wanted to have an engagement ring made for a sapphire that I bought several years ago, and I had a fairly specific idea of the kind of setting I wanted. We had visited another jeweler the week before, and left feeling not great about the estimate we were given. I found Aspen on Yelp and decided to go in and talk to them based on the reviews. Kurt was SO nice, and SO helpful, and he was able to show us lots of options and give us a (super reasonable) quote in just a few minutes.

My rings were ready in about two weeks, and I cannot stop staring at them. They're so beautiful. I'm really happy that I found them, and I highly recommend them to anybody looking for a good jeweler.

Reset a crooked center diamond on my engagement ring. 'Welded' my engagement ring to my wedding band for $100. Very, Very happy with this jeweler and wish I did this sooner! The price was great and both my engagement/wedding ring were polished and cleaned in addition to my requested service. My ring was done in about a day, 4 day earlier than originally stated. I will use them again in a second.

A little over a month ago I purchased my fiance's engagement ring from Aspen and team. I really struggled picking a ring because I doubted every decision I made when it came to picking something so important. After visiting multiple big box branded stores I realized that no one gave me the quality, attention and education that Aspen did. Everywhere else I went I felt as if I was simply a sale in someone's day. Kurt and team far exceeded my expectations and for that I'm grateful you guys treated us so well. Let me not forget Arnie. You the man Arnie!

About a month ago, I lost my wedding and engagement rings, I was devastated. Fortunately they were insured. My insurance company recommended Aspen Jewelers which is relatively close to my house. I was expecting the basic service that would come along with an insured item being replaced - not the case. I was immediately impressed with Arnie, he was knowledgeable, understanding and kind.

He was not only able to walk me thru the process of selecting the replacement stones and settings, he was able to recreate almost the exact ring and band that I had been proposed to and married with to my husband all of those years ago. While no one can replace those original items, Arnie came as close as one could get. I am grateful to have been placed in such excellent care.
