Erstwhile Jewelry Review

I love the story of Erstwhile Jewelry. A modern shopping experience with roots in a 19th century Ukrainian town. From a great, great grandfather in Odessa to a great, great grandson in New York City. But aside from a sweet family tale, what you will find there is a most incredible collection. J.S. Klusner inherited an eye for finding the most stunning and unique pieces of jewelry. I can not visit the website often because I want Everything. I was lucky enough to purchase a Victorian era gold ring and I love it. The ordering process was simple and it arrived in the mail safely and promptly. If you are looking for something unique, vintage, one of a kind, and drool worthy, go to this site. And if you're looking for an engagement ring, you will most likely find a worthy one there as well.

I purchased an engagement ring from Erstwhile and am pretty happy with the final results of my experience. I found the link to a store in the title of a random gif image online. I knew my fiancé would like any of the rings I found. The first time I tried to buy online ( I live in California ) I had to write to ask why I hadn't received any shipping confirmation. It turned out the ring had been sold so I had to wait for their selection to turn over before purchasing a ring in my price range. I was offered a discount for the difficulties I had with my first purchase and was very happy with the second ring I selected, more so than the first.

Gray & Davis, Ltd Review

The service is fantastic and Bernard and Gray have both excellent taste and amazing patience.  My fiance bought my engagement ring from Bernard and Gray.  In the limited conversations we had before he bought it all I really knew was that I wanted something with a past.  He found these two, and bought the most beautiful ring.  My first experience with them was to have my ring sized.  Having never sized a ring before I was pretty terrible at knowing what to do, and Bernard and Gray were amazing with getting me through it.

When it came time to buy our wedding bands we went back to the dynamic duo.  My fiance found the perfect band amidst their beautiful vintage collection, and they did an excellent job of modifying my mother's band so that I could wear it.  These two are a wonderful pair, and their shop is filled with treasures.  We will be sure to go back for any fine jewelry purchases in the future!

I brought a vintage ring to 47th Street in the hopes of using it as a trade-in for an engagement ring. Bernard Cohen at Gray & Davis was the only person who gave it an honest appraisal. Other stores offered me a one or two hundred bucks or waved me away in disgust when I would not name my price (or named one they deemed too high). I wound up putting it on consignment at G&D and pocketing over $1K. Cohen's expert eye saw the value and beauty of the ring. More importantly, he treated me fairly and with respect. He also provided me great advice and feedback on my purchase of the engagement ring even though I did not purchase it from G&D
