12 years ago when my wife and I got married I went to hl art jewelers with a ring of my late grandfather's. It had a recessed diamond. It was the only thing I had of my grandfathers and during the time period, was also the only thing of any value I had to my name. Rusty removed the diamond set it in a beautiful engagement ring for my wife, took the gold turned it into a wedding band for me then allowed me to finance a wedding band for my amazing wife.
This was during a time when any of the major credit reporting agencies would have told you that allowing me to finance anything was as good as donating it to charity. But they took a chance and that act of kindness was in part responsible for helping me make the single best decision IV ever made, putting that ring on the finger of the most amazing woman iv ever met. Now 12 years later, IV never purchased a piece of jewelry anywhere else and never have had anything but a great experiences on every purchase

Shopping for a womens watch and was pleased to find exactly what my mom wanted, readable numbers on small light weight, slim style, stretch band ladies everyday watch. Solar power sealed the deal for us, no more batteries to worry about so she can forget she has it on.

My family and I have frequented H.L. Art Jewelers for 15+ years. Their service and attention to detail is second to none. They have helped us with things from watch battery replacements to creating custom rings and have always provided an excellent customer experience and remarkable results. We continue to go back, as we have come to know their is no better place to go!
