Looking for the right engagement ring became quite a stressful time for me and my then-fiancé. The big box stores didn't have the designs that we were looking for. It also felt like they would quickly categorize us once we told them our budget. We also tried a few online retailers, and while their service was better, surprisingly, their designs were also not exactly what we were looking for. I stumbled on Dickinson by Design while doing a local google search and we decided to at least go in for a consultation. For our consultation, we were helped by the founder of Dickinson. He was patient

I’m no expert to Diamonds. But after my first diamond purchase I was highly educated by the staff at DbD! They help me chose the right diamond for an engagement ring at my budget. They dint try up sale me and understood my needs. Carla was great with following up on the whole process. Never by at a mall they are over priced. By here at DbD you will save at least $500 and get way better quality and personal attention. Their diamonds are GIA certified! Thanks DbD

I think I've written about 2 reviews in my lifetime, but DBD is most certainly worth writing another!!! From top to bottom, they're first class and they truly exceed any and every expectation.
After hearing about them from a friend that had just proposed to my soon-to-be-wife's roommate, I went to check them out to buy an engagement ring. I had to call them from the parking lot because I wasn't sure I was in the right place, then I thought the same thing when I walked in the front door. It then became apparent that they don't spend their time, effort or money on making the place look like the

Took two diamond tennis bracelets here to get sized a year ago. Should've written this review earlier. They charged me $300+ to size the bracelets and unfortunately one of my bracelets has been ruined ever since. I got home and took the bracelets out of the bag and saw one had diamonds missing. I notified them and they were able to replace the diamonds but this has happened repeatedly ever since. I've had to take it back in to get them replaced 3+ times and now I'm just tired of having to drive across town constantly to get it repaired. The diamonds always fall out shortly after

Dickinson by Design has designed multiple pieces of jewelry for my wife including her wedding band. The prices are clear and reasonable. John Dickinson and his entire staff are top notch, patient, respectful, and so friendly. When designing the wedding band, John made time to get to know my wife and I, which in my experience is unique. Multiple renderings of the ring options were provided and the final product was perfect. I've referred multiple people to Dickinson by Design, and everyone has the same awesome experience.

I told my husband that I wanted a new ring and I discovered Dickinson by Design online. John and his lovely wife were extremely knowledge, supportive, and professional through our journey. Additionally, every aspect of the design with done with excellence and care. On Christmas 2017, my husband and sons proposed to me with an unique, beautiful ring. My ring is simply beautiful. We pray that DBD is blessed for their level of excellence and kindness.

We bought a diamond engagement ring and two matching wedding bands from DBD.
We cannot be happier with the purchase.
I was looking for a solitaire diamond, with an idea in mind on a setting. Farah was extremely helpful in finding a stone my fiancé loves. The brilliance, clarity and fire in the diamond is beyond excellent. She educated me on how to select a top quality stone, helped me find it and priced it better than I could possible find it locally or on the web. She has access to most any stone you can find on the web and can help you select the stone ideal for you and your fiancé or wife

I was in Tiffany & Co. in the Galleria purchasing a beautiful Art Deco style ring when I fell in love with a Tiffany & Co. engagement ring. The sales lady suggested that since I loved the setting so much that I should have an independent jeweler reset my existing ring and she recommended Dickinson By Design. I was quite impressed with John's facility as well as the customer service. I showed him the exact ring that I fell in love with at Tiffany's and he said he could use my existing center stone and recreate the Tiffany setting. He created computerized drawings for me to

They only hit home runs! Management and staff alike are extremely welcoming, knowledgeable and provide the highest levels of service. Making the decision to purchase an engagement ring, I visited over 4 of DBD's peers. Landing at Dickinson was a no brainer. In comparison, DBD blew away the competition on every scale.

My fiancé and I found DBD when we began looking for a company to design an engagement ring using antique jewelry passed down through my family. We could not be happier with the experience, from beginning to end. John responded to my initial email inquiry very promptly, and we had an appointment set up within the next week. His years of experience and expertise were obvious. My ring is more beautiful than I had imagined, and the entire process was comfortable, seamless, and simple. His pricing is extremely fair, transparent, and a detailed spec is sent to you for approval prior to ordering/designing

My fiancé designed and got my ring from DBD. It is absolutely stunning!! I get compliments on my ring all the time and I have noticed that it is constantly catching people's eyes when I am having conversations with them. Also important to note that my ring appraised well above what my fiancé spent on the ring. I have been back with my fiancé to have my wedding band and his wedding band done by DBD. John and his wife, Fetneh, are so pleasant and easy to work with. They truly care about their work and their customers and it shows. I can't say enough positive things about our experience

Amazing, I had them do a custom designed engagement for me, it turned out perfect, even had to special order stones to get the look right.
As far as the work goes it was perfect.
The communication though I wish would have been a little better, but I was constantly contacting them, so it worked out.
Thank you so much

My fiance proposed at the beginning of May. I absolutely love my ring. I like gold so he got a yellow gold band with a white gold head. Absolutely beautiful cushion cut diamond ring!! I have gotten so many compliments already. I was in Tiffany's purchasing a gift and one of there sales people asked for his information since she loved my ring and wanted to pass his info to her boyfriend.
My ring was a little too big at first and I took it to be resized the Monday after he proposed since I was headed out of town for a business trip. They were able to resize it within a couple of hours. Wonderful

It's hard to know where to begin in writing this review for DBD. First of all, let me just say that this is an honest, genuine review in every way and I feel strongly compelled to share my experience with the rest of Houston! I recently worked with Lisa to design my stunning engagement ring. I actually discovered DBD on-line and what attracted me was their prices for platinum settings which seemed extremely reasonable.
After e-mailing a photo of a gorgeous setting I found at a very high-end jewelry retailer here in Houston (not to be named, but starts with a "Z' and is at the

Fantastic place to get an engagement ring! Everyone I dealt with was very helpful. I came with two styles in rings and John Jr. came up with a design that was combined both and was one of a kind. These guys also helped with the diamond selection. I knew a bit about diamonds from research and friends in the same business, they appreciated that and cut the bs. They brought me the stones I was looking for and several comparable ones as well. They worked on my schedule which was important because of my work schedule. John was only a phone call or a text away. The prices were very fair. The quality
