Love this jewelry store. Great service from wonderful people. Bought an estate 25 year anniversary ring a couple years ago and now just had my wife's wedding ring repaired. I wouldn't go elsewhere.

Had a very nice experience when going in to sell some recently inherited pearls. Unfortunately, they were not the right type to warrant purchasing, but everyone was extremely polite.

They were advertising that they were buying gold, silver, jewelry. I brought in a Men's gold ring with really nice Ruby and 2 nice Diamonds. Appraised value in 2013 at $6375. Graham Jewelry offered me $300! Give me a break!
