Review from L D.

First off let me say that I LOVE my wedding ring, designed by Ani. It is gorgeous, and never fails to get quite a bit of praise from all who see it. My Husband and I went to Ani 3 years ago, when they were in the Gift Center. They are now at The Jewelry Center a block away.
We had looked over the entire Gift Center and Jewelry Center, and the bottom line is, no one else had the quality, and their own original designs, which is important to me, and were so friendly and willing to work with us. There was a breathtaking yellow gold ring in the case that caught my eye. It was fit for a queen, and it was an original design by Ani. I asked Trevor if he could make it with a wee bit smaller diamond, and in platinum, and of course he said yes.
I bumped my ring last night at the grocery store. Okay, more than a bump. I was so upset that I was sure it looked a little off, so I called Trevor this morning and he was so kind. I took it right in, and Ani and Trevor were so sweet and understanding. There is also free parking right across the street, which is a great thing when you are in San Francisco. They cleaned it, checked it for damage, and gave it a little tweak.
I really appreciate that Ani and Trevor didn't try to capitalize on my distress in the slightest. They calmed me down, listened to me, and made me realize it was still my perfect ring. And they did not charge me a cent! I left with a gleaming ring, and a big smile. I can't imagine ever wanting another ring, but I know if I do, I know the only place I would go, and that's to Ani Diamond Design. Thank you Ani! Thank you Trevor! -

When I decided to propose to my (then) girlfriend in 2005, my best friend recommended Ani Diamond Designs to me. Several of our college friends have used Ani over the years, so who was I to break tradition?
I made an appointment in December 2005, right at the heart of the holiday buying season. Trevor and Leslie met with me an hour before opening their doors to the public and showed me several diamonds and settings. After an hour of browsing, I decided on a ring and diamond. But they encouraged me to shop around the Jewelry Mart so I would be sure of this decision.
I walked around the Jewelry Mart for a couple of hours, looking at several rings with many vendors. But afterwards, I went back to Ani and chose the ring I had picked out at the beginning of the day.
We've since gone back to purchase the accompanying wedding band for my wife, as well as my titanium wedding band. I've recommended Ani Diamond Designs to several other friends, which has continued our tradition. -

Ani, Trevor and Leslie are really easy to work with.
I made Trevor repolish my ring 3 times before I felt it was shiny enough. He said the ring didn't need it, but did it any way.
Their pricing is fair, however unless you are buying a lot and buying often, they probably won't give you any additional price breaks. But take a look in their cases, most of their diamonds are D-F. They have some gold pieces, but the majority are in platinum. With this in mind, I would expect to pay more.
They also do design work in their workshop and can help you create custom pieces. This includes using old pieces and redesigning them into something new. -

When we moved to San Francisco and got engaged in this superbe city,
I asked my girlfriend to marry me. Of course a nice ring is totally in place in that case. Not knowing where to go, I asked a local friend of mine where he got his wedding band for their successfull mariage?
He send me to Ani Design, and I can share that the help, information, warmth and pleasure of our purchase with Ani, Trevor and Lesly was such a great experience. They help us to enjoy the maximum of our little treasures and are always very helpfull.
This local jewelry store with magnificient creations, is an insiders recommendation of a life time of enjoyment and happinnes.
Very fairly priced and always a pleasure to go back.
Thank you so much for all your services.

Ani is as precious as her stones. She used to be a nurse, so I give her bonus points as I'm a nurse. I purchased my hubby's wedding band at Ani Designs. She had a wide variety of rings from modern to classic. She works with your budget and you can tell she enjoys working with you to find the perfect fit.
I will be going back some day to design my own ring with my hubby. I'm now wearing my great grandmothers ring and it's getting near to it's last stage of life.
THANKS ANI! -

I purchased my fiance's engagement ring and wedding band from Ani Diamond Designs. They have an amazing selection of gorgeous rings and high quality, custom made jewelery.
Lesley, Trevor and Ani are all very knowledgeable and helpful. They can make whatever you want, and have fantastic designs.
I purchased the center stone at another store and brought it to them. While their prices are not cheap, their quality of work and experience with custom jewelery is very apparent. For a once in a lifetime purchase that will keep her smiling every day, I fully recommend Ani Diamond Designs. -

Trevor, his wife and Leslie are so sweet and sincere. Every since my husband bought my engagement ring from them, I knew we would continue a good standing relationship with them. I have been back to service my abused engagement ring more than 5 times now. (4 times for the prongs- I kept on banging on I don't know where; and 1 for the band-bent so much I could barely take it off). They serviced it for free, polished it everytime I came in and just had friendly conversations each time. In a few years, I am looking into getting a new band and maybe doing something else with my engagement ring. They really worked with our budget as well. I highly recommend them, esp. if you're a cluts w/ jewelry like I am and want someone who will take care of you ASAP.

I was looking to have a ring re-sized and started by making a call here. The lady I spoke to was nice and seemed honest so when I got a similar price quote from a second call I decided to stop looking and go with this place. I went in and spoke to a woman, not the first one I spoke to on the phone, and explained what I needed to her. Exactly the same story I gave to the first lady. The second lady looked appalled when I got to the point I said I didn't buy it from them and refused to do it. I then had to look around the giant diamond market for someone to do the work without doing any additional research because the place I had counted on let me down.

bought the diamond for my wife's engagement ring here. The couple are very very friendly, knowledgable and thorough. He understood what I was looking for and offered a very fair price. I will definitely use them for all my diamond needs.
