I purchased a diamond ring from Mangan Jewelers and a pair of diamond earrings. Both pieces are very unique and get many compliments when I wear them. They have a nice selection of estate jewelry in addition to many unique new jewelry items and prices are great. I have yet to find anyone who can compete in quality and price.

Great experience! i only needed a couple of batteries changed, but Mr and Mrs Mangan were friendly, attentive, efficient, and fairly priced. i havent bought a lot of jewelry since courtship days, but their display cases were enticing. I'll be back!

It is the lowest level of building. It is very small place. But the lady who assisted me was very sweet. I came here to have my pearl necklace to be tighten. I needed to get screws for earning. They did not have 18 carets and they didn't have them. They ordered them for me. Everything got them done with a week. I am very pleased with their customer service.
