We needed a jeweler that could translate our vision into a stunning, wearable piece that could become a family heirloom on a relatively short timeline. Eric embraced the challenge and jumped in to be a creative thought partner. The necklace turned out beautifully, and was really well-priced for the amount of time and work it took to create.
Highly recommend this store and team for any custom piece you may want to design! Every time I pass by the store, they are totally welcoming and offer to steam clean my ring. Huge fan of this neighborhood small business and would recommend without hesitation. I did not feel pressured to instantly buy a ring and will come back to make a purchase and work with her in designing the perfect mount for my diamond.

This has been long overdue but my husband (fiancé at the time) found Traberts Goldsmiths secretively on my Instagram saved posts, as I've saved lots of their beautiful rings on my ideal engagement/wedding.
He went to the store and showed Melissa the associate the picture of the ring I liked and explained to him it's was a moissanite ring and educated him about diamonds as well. She showed him and suggested others as options and found the perfect ring. He said they were all so nice and the owner Eric congratulated him and gave him a bottle of Moët.

Trabert Goldsmith is now my go to jeweler. My dad wanted to give my mom something unique and memorable for their 50th wedding anniversary. We needed a jeweler that could translate our vision into a stunning, wearable piece that could become a family heirloom on a relatively short timeline. Eric embraced the challenge and jumped in to be a creative thought partner. He and his team created a stunning necklace that thrilled and surprised my mom (not an easy task). I also loved seeing all the pieces in his shop and had to pick-up some earrings for myself. These are timeless, but interesting

I cannot say enough great things about my experience at Trabert!
I really wanted to create a necklace with a medallion that I could pass down to my kids one day, something meaningful and special. I had a rough idea of what I wanted, and with the help of Eric and Chloe, I am now the most happy and grateful owner of a truly unique and beautiful piece of jewelry. They literally spent months creating what turned out to be a somewhat complicated piece to make, yet all along the way were patient with my (nagging) emails, and open to my ideas. Eric is a incredibly talented and thoughtful jeweler, and

We had such a positive experience with Trabert Goldsmiths for our engagement ring and decided to work with them for both of our wedding bands.
Eric and his team are incredibly talented and kind people who know their craft. We really appreciated being able to work directly with the maker. As a goldsmith, Eric is passionate and knowledgeable about jewelry design and was able to source our stone quickly. We felt at ease throughout the design process. Would happily return to Trabert's for future needs!

I cannot say enough about the experience I have had over the past year with the team at Trabert. My husband worked with Eric and Chloe to design the perfect, custom engagement ring, and were a huge help to him through the process. Every time I pass by the store, they are totally welcoming and offer to steam clean my ring. We went back for our wedding bands and I receive constant compliments on both my band and my engagement ring. Eric even helped me source an incredible watch as a wedding gift for my husband! Huge fan of this neighborhood small business and would recommend without hesitation.

I had a really nice experience shopping for a wedding band at Trabert. Melissa helped me and she was super knowledgable! She showed me a variety of rings that included ones I specifically requested to see and others that I wouldn't have considered otherwise and ended up LOVING. I felt like she instantly understood my style and what would look best with my engagement ring. I never felt rushed or pressured. I'm currently deciding between three different bands - they are each so special it's hard to choose!! I look forward to buying with Trabert. Thank you!

Melissa offered impeccable service and a wealth of information while explaining the difference between a real diamond and a Moissanite stone. She was extremely patient and showed me several diamond rings in my price range. I did not feel pressured to instantly buy a ring and will come back to make a purchase and work with her in designing the pefect mount for my diamond.

Update -- I cannot say enough amazing things about this company! They went above and beyond when I needed to get my ring sized. I'm not from the area so they really worked with me to make sure I could pick up my ring. Also, I constantly get compliments on these rings. :)

My fiancé and I are so happy we came to Traberts. We went to another jeweler first who basically tricked us and gave us a ring we were not happy with, even though it was supposed to be custom. Anyways, I found Traberts on Instagram and I am so happy I came in! Melanie immediately knew what my vision was and we were

We were really looking forward to our visit to Trabert based on their reviews and selection. We drove up from San Jose and was very disappointed with the service that we received. The store is tiny and very intimate. Customer service unfortunately was lacking, we didn't feel welcomed and the staff was definitely not helpful. We don't remember who exactly helped us (blonde hair woman) but she was not friendly and we got nothing but bad vibes leaving the store. Definitely will not be returning.

I drove 2 hours to come here because they have a really diverse, modern and funky collection on Instagram. I was really excited to try to find my wedding band, but the lady who helped me, unfortunately didn't get her name, super basic looking with kinda short blonde hair in a ponytail, cheap looking heel booties and a long cardigan, was super rude. Really condescending and not helpful at all. Every question I asked her was shot down and offered zero solutions to anything. I have a 2ct solitaire engagement ring with only a 2mm band and she referred to it as "hefty" and said it would

I'm shocked and disappointed by the service I received here. When we decided it was time to start looking for engagement rings, Trabert Goldsmiths was this first place I wanted to visit. So for my birthday, I took my mom and sister with me to check it out, I tried some rings on and found one I really liked.
I came back two days later with my friend to visit "my ring" again, discuss customization options, and check the height of the setting, etc. The blond woman who assisted me previously was there again, and indicated she remembered me. This time however, she was very cold and acted

I am embarrassed it has taken me this long to post this, but I wanted to make sure I posted for the wonderful experience that I had with Eric and his team!
I first knew of Trabert Goldsmiths through my girlfriends constant tagging of the rings on their Instagram account, so I knew she would want me to at least have a conversation with the team before I decided on a ring. I had the difficult situation of living very far away from SF (I am in FL), but from my first phone call with Eric he laid out a great gameplan and let me tell everyone LISTEN TO WHAT HE HAS TO SAY.

This place is fantastic... Super knowledgable and friendly. Recently, I accidentally warped my grandmother's ring, which means the world to me as it's a family heirloom. I went to Trabert quite stressed. The lady who helped me, I believe her name was Melanie, was so kind, patient and professional. She knew exactly how to fix it and took care of it for me right there on the spot. When I offered to compensate her for her time, she refused, which was incredibly generous. It's always refreshing to interact with a business that cares not just about a profit, but also cares about taking

I had to wait for a while to post my review, but now that my gal has her ring I can write it lol!
I'd say from top to bottom the experience was smooth. We went in, looked at bands and stones, talked about payments, left, and Chloe did some great follow ups with us to provide specs; even if we decided not to go with them.
Fast forward a little bit, I came back in and got the exact band that my girlfriend (now fiancé) asked for. I had purchased the stone from an outside vendor (which was no problem) and left it with Eric. I was quoted about 6 weeks time for the ring to be completed, and they

I walked in to the store they was busy lots of couples looking at rings. I have a piece of jewelry that needed a repair. The owner was hard at work at his bench. He stopped what he was doing gave me a estimate. I will be back to pick up in couple days. Very pleased with his work. I am a repeat customer and Eric Trabert has always exceeded my exspections.

They have moissanite!! I've been eager to see some in real life and was so pleased that they had several gorgeous unique modern antique cut stones in settings and in stock. The workers were super friendly and helpful to me, even though I came in right before they closed and they had several other couples and people in the small shop. They even let me take a couple rings outside to see how they look in natural lighting. Overall they have a really beautiful selection of unique jewelry that you're not likely to see in the more generic jewelry stores around town. I found them on Instagram

I was nervous and unsure about what kind of ring I wanted. My fiancé didn't know anything about rings!
We spent a little bit of time in the shop and learned SO MUCH. In fact my fiancé learned so much that he went home with a ring in mind. He just couldn't stop thinking of Trabert's jewelry, he went back the next day and bought a ring! Not just any ring, a ring that Eric designed and made himself. It is PERFECT for me and I didn't even know it!
We are going to go back and pick out both of our wedding bands FOR SURE.
Thank you so much for the best experience, and
