My grandma went to Lynn's when Bob was alive, my mom started using them too. I used them for a custom engagement ring which they designed in front of me. I still use them. Walked in during a lunch break and they treated me like I was their best client. (I was wearing dirty street cloths and probably looked like a punk kid) While I was getting something done, a few others walked in. One needed help just opening a clasp the other needed his chain tightened.
They were in and out! This place can do anything. It's cool to see the custom pieces. The prices aren't crazy either. BTW, I catch my wife looking at her ring all the time. She reminds me about how it sparkles and looks perfect. It's worth it to check this place out for yourself.

I had a small amount of my parents cremation ashes made into colored crystals. These crystals can be turned in many items including jewelery. We had a ring made and 2 bracelets. I took two specially made crystals ( 5 round gems and a solid bar) to John to make me 2 very personalized and special bracelets. I brought my vison to him for both bracelets and he enhanced them into 2 super bracelets. They turned out absolutely beautiful which I can wear and feel like my parents are still with me. It's a comforting feeling. I recommend John and his superb skills to turn any of your special jewelery into something even more special. Give him a try- you wont be disappointed.

This review has nothing to do with the business, but the jeweler who works here. I was sitting in my car in the parking lot, waiting for my husband to finish his physical therapy. The jeweler parked his car next to mine. Like I said I was minding my own business, when he came out blaming me for scratching his car door. He was extremely rude to me. There was so much space in between our cars, that I couldn't even have hit it if I tried.
I checked my car door there is no sign of me hitting him. For him to come out blaming me and accusing me of something I didn't do was very rude and unprofessional. I hope this isn't how he treats his actual customers. To summarize, the jeweler is rude, horrible and the parking lot sucks.
