I gave used Redlands Jewelers for over 25 years. A friend at church recommended them. She said they were an honest Christian family business. I've never gone elsewhere! I wish I could give 10 stars!

Clean, organized and honest. They sized my new wedding ring and my old wedding ring, for a great price. Employees are very nice and knowledgeable. It's hard to leave ur precious belongings with others and to trust them but this place made me feel very comfortable with leaving my rings in their hands. They came out beautiful!

I went into Redlands Jewelers today to ask if they could fix my necklace on very short notice since I am wearing it for my wedding on Friday. Not only did they do a quick and beautiful job fixing my necklace but they also cleaned all of my jewelry for me so I will look extra sparkly on my wedding day! I can't thank you guys enough for the huge favor you did for me today. Customer for life.

I've been using Redlands Jewelers for several years for watch batteries and various repairs, including the repair of my 41 year old wedding set. Recently, I've been able to make a few purchases. Each one was a pleasant experience without any high pressure sales. Thanks, Brian and Jessica and the rest of the staff for your great service.
