My husband and I took my engagement ring here to be repaired after one of the diamonds fell out. They promised I would have my ring back prior to my husband and I going on vacation, and they kept their promise! They also reinforced all of the small diamonds in the halo to make sure that the stones wouldn’t continue to keep falling out. Everything was very easy and the finished product is perfect. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for ring repair or any other jewelry needs!

My fiancé Cody recently purchased my engagement ring from Allen's Jewelers, and I could not be happier! My ring is absolutely gorgeous, and Cody had the best time learning about diamonds with the staff. Karen, Lauren, and Nancy were all fabulous teachers, and Cody had a great experience working with them. We cannot recommend Allen's Jewelers enough! Thank you!

AMAZING! We could not have had a better buying experience! From start to finish, the team at Allen’s was extremely informative, welcoming, accommodating, and friendly! They made us feel right at home and gave us all the information we needed. While engagement ring shopping, I ended up loving a few different rings so we actually went the custom ring route! It was completely affordable and honestly really fun! Lauren did such a great job helping us pick out stones and designs, she was so patient and determined to find the right options for us! I highly highly recommend working with them!

Allen's Jewelers has been my family's go-to jewelry store for anything important, and now I really understand why. I was nervous about the process of looking for an engagement ring before I started, but I knew when I walked in and started talking to Lauren that we would be able to find something perfect. They had a fantastic selection of rings and Lauren really took the time to understand what I and my now-fiancée were looking for. She asked important questions the whole time and I never felt like she was pushing me one way or another, just showing me what options were available. Lauren had expert

I've been looking forward to having my engagement ring redesigned and I'd heard great things about Allen's Jewelers. Karen and Lauren are exceptional. They're so warm and welcoming and incredibly knowledgable about jewelry design. Lauren listened carefully as I described my vision-taking notes and sketching what would ultimately become my custom engagement ring. She asked great questions and shared ideas I would never have thought of but were instrumental in the design process. I don't have words to describe how ecstatic I am with this
"masterpiece." Lauren and Karen are genuinely thrilled for

I am so happy with my beautiful ring! Allen's Jewelers did an amazing job. When I went to get my ring resized, they made it easy and fast (within the day!).
They are so kind and wonderful to work with. I am glad my man chose Allen's Jewelers for my engagement ring! I would for sure recommend them - best in Charlotte!

Allen's Jewelers is fantastic! I loved working with Karen and Lauren. Me and my Fiance came in for custom wedding rings and they nailed the design perfectly! My design was Harry Potter themed and my fiance's was West Point themed. The pricing was good as well. I highly recommend coming here, especially if you have a custom piece of jewelry in mind.
