Our family friend recommended EB Horn to me and my fiance as I wanted a custom wedding band. I wanted to take my mothers wedding band and melt/reshape it and add my grandmother's diamonds. EB Horn was able to accommodate my wishes and was really helpful. When I initially emailed Doug he got back to me the next day to set up an appointment time. When we arrived Christine was able to help us finalize the design that we wanted.

She was able to show us the diamonds we had brought with a magnifying glass and let us try on one similar to what we imagined. Christine educated us about diamonds and the process we were going through. When we were done, she said it would be a 3 week turnaround and gave us a quote, however, the custom ring came back sooner than expected and we were able to make an appointment the same day; the final price was even less than she quoted!

My fiance also had a great experience. EB Horn had a variety of different men's wedding bands in different colors and sizes. He was not able to find the perfect size so Christine suggested that they shorten one of the band sizes by . EB Horn was so accommodating and careful with our family items and we will definitely go back in the future. It was a great experience.

World Class Customer Service. From my 1st email inquiry, Doug answered all my questions and presented me with exactly what I was looking for, a WOW ring and other options. EB Horn certainly lives up to its reputation with its quality, selection, craftsmanship and personal service. It was World Class customer service throughout the entire process. Without a doubt we will only be doing business with Doug/EB Horn going forward.

I love this jeweler and the only one I shop at. They are incredibly nice and I get a family feel every time I visit. I've bought my wife's engagement rings, wedding rings, other diamond rings and studs there. Every time they are so welcoming and not pushy at all. They gave me plenty of time to think on it and we're very reasonable. Always ask to clean my wife's rings when we go in. I just love EB and the only place I fully trust.

I inherited some family jewelry and brought it into EB Horn for appraisal. Michael Finn and his team were very knowledgeable and courteous educating me about the pieces and their value. I had a ring resized and I was so pleased at the turn around time and how it came out. The pieces they offer in the store are beautiful and the estate pieces are very unique. A great experience from start to finish!

I worked with EB Horn prior to our trip to Boston and email communication was prompt. The store was nice and clean and an appointment was required which was nice because it made it more of a personal visit. The store had a lot of cool pieces full of history- very unique! Purchased a beautiful piece and couldn't be happier!

In 1986, my wife and I bought our wedding rings at E. B. Horn. Susan's ring was a combination of sapphire and diamond; mine was/is a textured gold band. They served us well. Our marriage survives. Fast forward to early 2020 (I think.) We had had a serious house fire in 2016, losing everything we possessed. We returned to EBH and had great assistance in replacing my wife's ring. The men who helped us were warm, understanding, and compassionate. We have nothing but great thoughts and memories of our experiences there.

The best jeweler hands down. Best staff. Best quality. Best price. Best selection. If you can't find exactly what you want they will build you exactly what you want. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Bought my first engagement ring here 40 years ago. Then several other rings since, and now my children buy all their rings here too. Love EB

John at E B Horn is simply amazing! He is very knowledgeable, charismatic and extremely flexible about the customer's decision-making process. He helped me so much and worked with me in picking out the perfect ring I was looking for. The customer service at E B Horn is simply impeccable and they were also very fast in getting the ring ready--we ended up going back for a second set of purchases! I love this store :

I couldn't be happier with my jewelry. Doug took the time to listen to my request, and was not only knowledgeable, he gave great suggestions, was easy to work with, and kept me up to date with how things were moving along. His follow up was just the best! I had moved from Boston, to another state but knew, (because I had purchased jewelry pieces at EB Horn before), that only they would know how to turn my idea into a reality.

I now have a gorgeous piece that will pass down for generations to come. Doug was able to turn an antique sapphire ring, into a stunning necklace-to which he added a tiny diamond and lovely chain. He was also able to make 3 stacking rings from the remaining platinum of the ring's band! On each stacking ring, he placed initials-mine on one, the initials of each of my children on the second.and on the third, the initials of my grandchildren. Anytime I need jewelry information, or am looking for a creative gift idea for a loved one (or myself), I will call EB Horn and my jeweler, Doug!

In addition to this being a wonderful experience--because the necklace and rings were being shipped in November (near my birthday), Doug wrapped the boxes with pretty paper and ribbons! I can't say enough about EB Horn, Doug, all the others who have helped me over the years, and all who make EB Horn, the 'gem' of a jewelry store, that it truly is! Thank you

We've been repeat customers a few times now. First repairing a family vintage watch, then a new watch, wedding rings, and holiday gifts. Doug and the team are fantastic! Thanks for everything.

We have purchased jewelry from E.B. Horn over the years and have never been disappointed. We recently worked with Dermot McNelis and he is outstanding. If I could give him 10 stars I would do so. I highly recommend Dermot and E.B. Horn.

I am a long time customer with EB Horns, 30+ years. It's my go to jewelry store when I purchase family heirlooms. The customer service is superb and they have lots of one of a kind and rear finds. Looking forward to stopping in before the end of this year. Love you EB HORNS

I'm 57 yrs old I was told by my brother in-law about E. B. Horn when I was about 18 years old. That was the place I bought my first piece of jewelry for a girlfriend. I've been buying jewelry there ever since. The service and quality of things I've gotten there has been bringing me back to this day

After shopping around other jewelers in Downtown Crossing, E.B. was the clear winner. Professional and friendly staff during the entire ring-shopping process. Shout out to John, who was incredibly helpful in helping my husband and me select our rings. I know this might seem like small potatoes, but no other jewelers congratulated us on our engagement. E.B. did.

Doug went out of his way to make sure our experience with EB Horn was a great one. He delivered a gorgeous emerald cut three-stone engagement ring & then had our wedding bands made in less than a month. Highly recommend EB & Doug

Personal, friendly service and gorgeous jewelry. We found the perfect vintage watch for my husband's birthday. Couldn't have had a nicer experience. Skip the chain stores and consider visiting this classic jewelry shop for a real treat!

EB Horn has been the jeweler I have gone to for many years now. The value, quality and service has always been second to none. Special thanks to John Bourgea for your great service helping us pick out this beauty. She said yes 9/5/21!

I visited E.B. Horn with the hopes of getting my grandfather's class ring made into a necklace pendant I could wear every day. It is a treasured heirloom and I was very apprehensive to trust anyone with making this happen. The staff at E.B. Horn were extremely helpful and kind and made me feel secure through the whole process. They listened to my ideas and were able to make a beautiful piece that kept the integrity of the class ring.

They were very timely with their communication and I knew that my necklace was in good hands. The pricing in my opinion was very fair for the custom build. I would trust them again any day!
