I came in with a watch and a bracelet bought from somewhere else but I needed them resized. I received amazing service and quality work for next to nothing. I will be returning.

Luke is easy to work with and did a great job creating a beautiful piece of jewelry from my vague description of what I had in mind. I definitely recommend this as a low-stress jewelry shopping experience that is worth the drive from Wichita for this kind of customer service.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with our local jewelers. Schmidt jewelry was very professional and did a beautiful job with my mothers wedding band. I highly recommend them.

Always receive excellent service. They go the "extra mile" for all their customers. I was able to get a lot of my Christmas shopping done in one place! Luke made some great recommendations and I am so pleased with all my purchases. My family will love these gifts. The quality cannot be surpassed!
