Two years ago my fiancé gave me a custom ring that was created by Denise Boksa at Windy City Diamonds. It is beautiful. Over the past few months I worked with Denise to create the perfect ring to give to him. We came up with a white gold x1, blue enamel and stunning diamonds. Two years to the day I presented my fiancé with this stunning ring from Windy City Diamonds. He was so happy and stunned. We both had such a great experience working with Denise and could not be more happy with the rings we have.

Big shout out to Komal for making Christmas merry and bright! She helped my husband design the perfect ruby ring! We consulted several suburban and Jewelers Row jewelers and Komal really worked hard to get a stone in from NYC and the mounting in and completed in four days just in time for Christmas. Her follow up and attention to detail was amazing. Thanks Komal!!

Had a fantastic experience at Windy City Diamonds. Komal completely took care of me. She was very understanding, responsive, and always advocating on my behalf. Other Google reviews led me to her as I walked in knowing next to nothing, and I would absolutely go back if I had to do it again!

I was referred to Komal by a friend, and I could not be more satisfied with my experience. Komal was incredibly helpful and knew exactly how to guide me down the right path when choosing an engagement ring. She educated me on everything I needed to know, and helped me figure out what I wanted when I wasn't sure myself. Most importantly, my fiance said the ring was perfect!

I used Windy City, specifically Jasmin, to create a custom eternity band. I had contacted multiple jewelers in the city to spec out the ring I wanted- I knew exactly what I wanted from the size of the diamonds to the setting. After multiple places told me they could not source the diamonds I was looking for- I took one last try with Windy City and I was so happy I did. Jasmin was upfront with me that finding what I wanted might take some time and he promised to keep me updated. Over the next few weeks he let me know they were looking all over the world to find the stones I wanted and bring them

Denise is my jewelry expert extraordinaire! From my engagement ring, to our wedding bands, to random fixes, I trust her and Windy City for all my jewelry needs! Fast service and impeccable product which they stand by! I've recommended 3 of my friends there, and my hubs sends all his guy friends when they decide its time to settle down and they are also life long customers! Visit soon and often!

I can not recommend Windycity Diamonds enough! I worked with Denise exclusively to find the perfect engagement ring. During the first meeting she did an excellent job of explaining the diamond market. She has done this for a long time and is very knowledgeable. She gave me specific advice that I would not have gotten elsewhere.
Great Quality at the best value. She found me a ring that I loved for the HALF the price of my initial budget. At no point did she pressure me or rush me into a decision. She was always willing to back to the drawing board to keep finding new options for me. The whole process

I highly recommend Windy City Diamonds! My fiance and I worked with Sheriff and had a phenomenal experience. He worked with my fiance to design a custom engagement ring and wedding band. He even was able to incorporate my grandmother's wedding band and diamond into the engagement ring, so it's a great blend of new and old. Great customer service and quality. Highly, highly recommend!

I've been working with Denise at WCD to have multiple family diamonds reset into custom designs, so far the 2 rings made are beautiful and I have another one on the way. I can't stop going back for the customer service and beautiful designs. They are straight shooters and won't price gauge you! Highly recommend.

GO TO WINDY CITY DIAMONDS! My fiancé and I designed our engagement ring together and we could not have asked for a better partner throughout this process than Denise. She was thoughtful, patient, attentive, flexible, creative, and determined. What I most appreciated was Denise's honesty and authenticity. Not once did I ever feel like I was trying to be "pitched" anything or forced into something - She listened and focused on what was best for us. She truly went ABOVE AND BEYOND all expectations I had. I'm so appreciative of her and would recommend Windy City to anyone! THANK

Our experience at Windy City Diamonds was amazing. We approached Denise in hopes of designing a custom engagement ring. Denise was excited about our ideas and verily obviously passionate about her job. She was personal and genuine, warm but directive. She followed my ideas but inserted her advice in places where I wasn't making the best decisions. She explained why white gold would be better than platinum, why I needed 6 prongs on my pear diamond instead of 4, why my band needed to be wider than I originally imagined. I told Denise to her face that I would follow her off of a cliff. I was

GO TO KOMAL! She was incredibly informative and walked me through the entire process. She did not try to push me to buy a bigger engagement ring, but informed me on how important quality is (vs size) and where I could get the best bang for my buck. Not only did I get an incredible diamond at a very fair price, she made an absolutely beautiful engagement ring! The entire process is incredibly informative, thorough and professional. I'll be recommending everyone I know to Windy City Diamonds and Komal.

Extremelly satisfied with Windy City Diamonds and specially the awesome help of Denise. We designed a custom diamond with her and we couldn't be happier with the result. Denise personally went through the process with us all the way from idea to delivery. She really is the best. We never felt any type of pressure into making the decisions. She was really patient, available and understanding. Windy City Diamonds is the best place we could have chosen. My wife and I are extremely happy with the decision. Recommended 10000%!!

My husband and I had an outstanding experience working with Komal at Windy City Diamonds. Komal is a jewelry and diamond expert and made us feel completely confident throughout the custom ring buying process. She always managed our expectations well - she made sure to build in time to check the designs and the ring carefully herself before asking… us to come in and review everything. Komal always made us feel like we were her top priority and she utilized her contacts to make sure we could see the diamonds we wanted to view quickly. Also, Komal is hilarious. She made me laugh so hard during

Amazing, friendly, and knowledgeable staff. We tried the Jewelry Mall next door first and the stores we went to barely acknowledged us. No so with Windy City Diamonds. They really helped us through the process of selecting our rings - as we had no idea what we wanted. The service was great. We’ll be back!
