The full ring shopping experience without frills or exorbitant cost! I recently proposed to my partner of almost 10 years and Michael and co were absolutely spectacular throughout the process of selecting and purchasing a very special ring. Firstly all the staff did the basics right: timely, friendly and direct communication over the phone and email. I never worried that I would get lost in the shuffle and it's clear they value all of their customers, no matter the price-range. Speaking of price range: I was completely up front about my expectations and Micheal returned that courtesy.
He was forthcoming and direct throughout the process and clearly believes in the work he and his family do-- producing beautiful custom jewelry with none of the pretension or snobbery. This is proven by the fact that they can source lab-grown diamonds to be used in any of the settings in the store. You won't necessarily find this option at some of the more traditional places on Jeweler's Row. Completely recommended! We'll be back for our wedding bands this year.

Michael was exceptional from start to finish for the engagement ring purchase process. My Fiance and I could not be happier with how the custom engagement ring turned out. The radiant cut diamond is flawless and the price was absolutely reasonable. Michael gladly answered all questions during every step of the process. I would recommend Desumma and Wexler to everyone who is looking for their perfect engagement ring. Thank you!

I purchased an engagement ring for my partner here last fall, and was deeply impressed by the quality of service I received throughout the whole process. Michael worked with me for months to create a custom design for the ring, and he successfully delivered on all my wildest requests. We're both so happy with how it turned out, and we'll definitely be returning to DeSumma and Wexler for future fine jewelry needs.

Couldn't have asked for a better experience buying a custom engagement ring. Every encounter is thoughtful and they make you feel like family. Huge supporter of these guys and would not hesitate to refer close family and friends. Great communication, fair pricing, and complete transparency throughout the entire process. Finished result was outstanding.

Had to come in and review my favorite jewelers! On Thanksgiving Day 2019, Michael and the De Summa family helped create the most beautiful engagement ring that would sit on my finger. This month, August 2020, their wedding band custom made to my liking joins it. Thank you so much you are the best
