Their customer experience is by far one of the best I've ever encountered in my years of IT, Digital, and as a Consumer. Well designed and easy to navigate store front experience, fair pricing, custom build to my liking, added savings and updates throughout the build process made the journey seamless and enjoyable.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this. Hearing feedback like this truly means a lot to our team.
We work hard to make the entire experience feel smooth from start to finish, so it is wonderful to know that the design process, the customization, and the updates along the way helped make your journey enjoyable. Creating a piece that reflects exactly what someone has in mind is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do, and we are grateful you trusted us with that process.
Your perspective, especially coming from a background in IT and digital, makes this feedback even more meaningful. We are so glad the experience met your expectations and we hope you enjoy your piece for many years to come. Thank you again for choosing The Art of Jewels.
I love my ring! However I paid for engraving but it is so small I can’t see it.
I also had issues with shipping. I received no communication on delivery. Considering it requires a signature and the customer is unable to make changes to the date or address the company should have some interaction with the customer. I received an email with an ETA. I had to make changes to make sure someone could sign. I then get an update that it was going to arrive sooner than expected, I had to call ART OF JEWELs to change the delivery location, then got another update that I would be after. I called ART OF JEWELs back to change the address back to my house and was told I can only make 1 change. They refused to help me and were very rude.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for your kind words about your ring. We are very glad to hear that you love it. That means a great deal to our team.
We are sorry to hear that the engraving did not meet your expectations. Engravings on fine jewelry are typically quite small due to the limited surface area, but we certainly understand that it should still feel meaningful and visible to you. If you are unhappy with how it turned out, please reach out to our team at [email protected]
and we will be happy to look into the options available to help.
Regarding the shipping experience, we truly regret that it felt frustrating. Because our packages contain high value jewelry, they are shipped with a required signature for security. As outlined in our posted terms and policies, once a shipment is processed and in the carrier’s system, address changes can sometimes be limited or restricted by the shipping provider. It is possible that by the time you contacted our team the shipment had already been locked in their system, which can unfortunately prevent us from making additional adjustments.
We also want to sincerely apologize if any part of the interaction felt rude. That is never the intention of our team. We always aim to be helpful and respectful while also working within the security requirements that protect our customers’ purchases.
We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope you will reach out so we can assist you further regarding the engraving. Your satisfaction with your piece is very important to us.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re really glad to hear you’re enjoying the earrings. Our goal is always to offer pieces that are both beautiful and fairly priced, so it means a lot to know that came through in your experience. We truly appreciate your support and hope you enjoy wearing them for many years to come.
Thank you so much for the kind words. We’re really glad you had a great experience with The Art of Jewels. Hearing that you found it totally awesome means a lot to our team, and we truly appreciate you taking a moment to share your feedback. We look forward to helping you again in the future.
I saw a ring on the AOJ site that I loved, but wanted a few modifications, so I was encouraged to create a custom ring, and I’m so happy with the result! I was able to view and select my own diamond and discuss exactly what I wanted over the phone. Adi was very kind and helpful and gave great advice and suggestions. The CAD was sent to me and approved quickly. The only “hiccup” was a bit of a delay in creating my ring. There was a winter storm that shut down the facility for a week and this was right between the Christmas/New Years and Valentines rush. I’m not bothered at all by the delay, just would have appreciated better communication during the waiting period. However, the customer service was incredible. Every person I spoke with was very kind, helpful, and apologetic. Lindsey, Sara, and Taylor were all great to work with.
But, most importantly, when I received my custom engagement ring (an upgrade for me), I was blown away! I cannot stop looking at my hand. The sparkle is out of this world. They really listened to my requests and what I was hoping for- what elements were most important to me. The craftsmanship is top notch. I even took my ring to a local jeweler to have it inspected and was told how lovely it is. I truly could not love it more!! I’m so in love with my ring and I would recommend AOJ to anyone without hesitation. If you’re like me and doing research, skeptical of purchasing jewelry online, wondering who to go with and trust for such a big and important purchase, I am telling, from my own experience, you won’t regret working with The Art of Jewels.

Most of all, we love hearing how much you are enjoying your ring. Knowing that you cannot stop looking at it and that it exceeded your expectations is exactly why our team does what we do. It is also wonderful to hear that even your local jeweler admired the craftsmanship.

I was extremely pleased with the lab diamond and setting. The service was excellent and the price was better than your competitors.
Your lower prices on quality products is what made me purchase from you instead of many other companies.

The customer service is awful. My order was supposed to ship in two weeks and it has now been four. There was no communication on the delay. I have reached out several times to be told it will ship next week. Would not recommend.

Hi Chelsea,
We sincerely apologize for the delay in delivering your order. Typically, our New York manufacturing facility completes orders within 12 business days.However, a recent severe storm in the East-Coast forced a six-day closure, resulting in significant delays. New York was shut down for a while.
We reopened last week and are currently working through the backlog. Your order is scheduled to ship on Tuesday, February 10th. To compensate for the inconvenience, we will ship it via overnight delivery and include a complimentary gift pendant.
We truly appreciate your patience and apologize again for the delay.
My engagement ring did not come as pictured. The customer service was extremely slow and snarky in resolving the issue. They then claimed to “thoroughly investigate” the issue. If the investigation were thorough, they would know their associate Lindsey has been chatting with me about my ring.

Poor quality Ring. The lab created diamond looks fake not like a diamond and the gold does not reflect the quality of 18 karat gold I paid for and requested. Comparing this to my 14 karat gold band and some 18 karat gold I have. The band is so thin and not as pictured. This review is for Art of Jewel. Returning item.

I've been searching for a right-hand ring for nearly 5 years. Yes, 5 years and would never pull the trigger. I learned so much about diamonds and I put so many rings together, I couldn't decide! Finally, I found the Kathleen platinum setting (my mom's name) and a gorgeous 3.51 carat hearts and arrow stone and put it in my cart...it's absolutely stunning. I love it and the process from start to finish was so easy. I loved all the status updates! Thank you, Art of Jewels, for helping me honor my mom as well as making me feel like a princess (at a fantastic price to boot)!
Reply from The Art Of Jewels2026-01-19
We’re truly honored that after five years of searching, you chose The Art of Jewels for such a meaningful piece. The fact that you found the Kathleen platinum setting (what an incredible tribute to your mom) and paired it with that stunning 3.51ct Hearts & Arrows diamond makes this even more special — and we’re thrilled it turned out exactly the way you envisioned.
It means the world to hear the process felt easy and that you enjoyed the updates along the way. Helping you create a ring that honors your mom and makes you feel like royalty is exactly why we do what we do.
Wishing you a lifetime of joy every time you look at your ring — thank you again for trusting us!
I decided to gift myself an upcoming 50th birthday present... which isn't until Oct. 2026. What began as some casual diamond shopping, quickly became an obsession! AOJ's website is so intuitive and very user friendly. I made myself a really gorgeous ring after carefully selecting a diamond and added it to my cart! I looked at it daily but was feeling shy about making the purchase...also, I figured I had time since my birthday isn't for another year! Well...one day, I logged in and the diamond I had selected sold!! I was devastated and I thought, if I feel that way about this I should not wait for "next time!" I searched until I found a 4+ carat, near perfect round brilliant and I did not wait!!!! I did have some questions - which were handled promptly and professionally and I bought it! I was concerned the band of the setting I wanted would not be substantial enough for a 4-carat diamond. They easily remedied this by increasing the band from 1.8 mm to 2 mm at no extra charge. This was just a no brainer! If you're on the fence, don't be. This has been a wonderful experience, and my ring is g o r g e o u s!

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful story — and happiest early un-birthday to you! 🎉 We absolutely loved reading about your journey and how thoughtfully you chose your dream ring. Moments like the one when “the diamond gets away” can be heartbreaking, but we’re so glad it helped you discover the one meant just for you. A 4+ carat, near-perfect round brilliant is a breathtaking choice, and we’re honored you trusted us to create something so meaningful.
It means the world to us that you found our website easy to navigate, that our team was able to support you promptly, and that we could customize the band to ensure your ring was exactly what you envisioned. We believe every detail matters — especially for a forever piece.
Thank you again for your kindness, your trust, and your beautiful words. We hope your ring brings you joy every single day leading up to your milestone birthday and beyond. Wear it proudly — you deserve it!
Just received my custom ring from The Art Of Jewels. They took my vision of the perfect engagement ring and turned it in to reality. It looks better than I could have imagined. Their communication throughout the design process was impeccable and the final product incredible.

I'm a real customer, and my fiancée is obsessed with her ring—she gets compliments every single day! I had picked out a stone, but Adi suggested a different one. I went with his idea, and it turned out perfectly. She said yes!

Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful experience! We’re honored to have been a part of such a meaningful moment in your life, and we’re thrilled to hear your fiancée absolutely loves her ring — and all the compliments that come with it!
We’re especially glad Adi’s stone recommendation worked out perfectly. Helping our customers find “the one” — not just in love, but in the ring too — is truly what we love most about what we do.
Cost gouging returns and terrible customer service
I called customer service to inquire about getting my item a few days earlier than the usual production time. The rep said no problem as long as I pay for expedited shipping. The ring didn’t work for me and when I go to return it, I’m told it’s a 20% restocking fee which is a lot of money on a 2 carat eternity band. Customer service didn’t mention a thing and the 20% restocking fee is embedded many paragraphs deep in the fine print. The top of the return policy states worry free returns. Well my experience has been very disappointing. I would highly recommend avoiding this business.
*** written after the business responded to my review. I think a business is very disingenuous when they embed large fees very deep into fine print on a return policy. The 20% restocking fee is in the THIRD paragraph of tiny print return policy. It took me almost 10 minutes of searching to find it. Also, no where does it say eternity bands are non returnable so again, this business is bad news acting like they’re doing me a favor taking back my order when they have a “worry free, no questions asked” return policy. There are so many wonderful jewelry wholesalers on the internet who will treat you much better. Buyer beware!
Reply from The Art Of Jewels2025-12-15
UPDATED RESPONSE: We clearly advise all purchasers to review our refund policy prior to completing their purchase. Our 30-Day Return Policy is publicly available and easy to access here:
https://theartofjewels.com/static.php?page=about-us/30-days-return-policy
As stated explicitly in the EXCLUSIONS section, eternity bands are non-refundable. This section clearly lists eternity bands among items that are not eligible for returns.
Despite this policy, we still approved a refund as a courtesy. Under our stated terms, the item would have only been eligible for an exchange. We went beyond our policy to accommodate the request.
-----------------------------------
ORIGINAL RESPONSE:
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience felt disappointing, and we appreciate the opportunity to clarify the situation.
Our 30-Day Return Policy is publicly posted on our website and applies to all orders. As clearly stated in that policy:
Eternity bands are not eligible for returns and are exchange-only; also
A 20% restocking fee applies to expedited (rush) orders due to immediate production prioritization and labor costs
This policy is not hidden or fine print and is available to review at any time prior to purchase:
https://theartofjewels.com/static.php?page=about-us/30-days-return-policy
In this case, because the item purchased was an eternity band, it is not eligible for a refund at all under our policy. However, as a courtesy exception, we issued an RMA allowing for a return to be processed. The only fee we are applying is the 20% restocking fee, which is due solely to the order being expedited at your request.
Had the order not been rushed, no restocking fee would have needed to be applied. We take pride in being transparent and fair, and while we understand your frustration, we do not believe this situation reflects cost gouging or poor customer service. In fact, a refund offer was extended in a scenario where an exchange was the only option outlined in our policy.
We truly value our customers and aim to be clear and consistent at every step. While we respect your perspective, we feel this review does not reflect the circumstances or the massive exception that is being made to allow the refund.
If you have any additional questions or would like to exchange the eternity band instead, our team is always happy to help.

I ordered my wife a stunning 3 Carat Oval stone mounted with a 2 carat setting. The ring is so beautiful, I had help selecting just the right stone from your lab professionals. Even though it took little longer to receive it than advertised, it was so worth the wait! My wife gets so many compliments on her ring and we are both very happy with the service we received from The Art of Jewels. We both highly recommend them!

The diamond studs I originally chose for travel have quickly turned into my go-to everyday accessories. I was looking for something that exudes elegance while being low maintenance, and these studs perfectly fit the bill. Their secure design means they stay in place without loosening or tilting, making them an unbeatable choice for effortless style. Shoutout to Tayler, who helped me pick the perfect pair.

Clicked the ad and ended up obsessed with the ring
Even though I wasn't looking for jewelry that day, an ad for their stunning ring captured my attention, and I couldn't get it out of my mind. I ended up ordering it that very night, and I’m so glad I did! The diamond dazzles like a tiny spotlight is shining from within. When I wore it to dinner, I was thrilled to receive a compliment from my famously picky aunt, which speaks volumes! This ring is truly a showstopper.
