My father passed away suddenly last August, and recently, a chain for a necklace he gifted me when I graduated college broke. I looked all over town, visited several shops, and all told me they didn't work on hollow link gold chains, as they're an older method and brittle. One shop recommended another, and that shop recommended another, so on and so forth. Finally, I arrived at Baraka, and not only were they able to fix my chain, they did it in a quick turnaround, and at an agreeable price. I'm very grateful. They have my... read more
The short and sweet version: Jame and the team at Baraka create an experience unparalleled in the Seattle area. If you want bespoke, custom made jewelry or a premade piece from their floor collection, this is the place to go. Our story: I visited three jewelry shops in the Seattle area when searching for a vendor to create a custom engagement ring for my fiancé. The first, didn’t meet communication standards for what I’d expect as a client. The second, had astronomical fees for setting stones and creating custom designs. Wit... read more
I had some jewelry (good stuff and scraps) and a few old coins I wanted to sell. From submitting the online request, to making an appointment and then the appointment itself, Jamie at Baraka was wonderful. Great communication throughout, he took the time to explain the process and I feel he went above and beyond to explain how he came to his final number for the sale. The whole experience was great and very fun! I would highly recommend Baraka for pretty much anything jewelry related, you will not be disappointed.
I purchased diamond earrings and a matching diamond pendant, made 1990-ish, for our 25th Anniversary. My wife loves them. My entire experience with Baraka Gems was pleasant and reassuring. The staff was friendly and courteous, while the jeweler was knowledgeable and patient. I visited in jeans and a t-shirt, but detected no signs of judgment or disapproval. The pieces came with a 3rd party appraisal. I will definitely check out what they have in stock the next time I'm in the market for jewelry. Oh, and I originally sa... read more
We would recommend Baraka Gems for anyone looking to purchase or design an engagement ring. We loved working with Taylor. She was very knowledgeable and super helpful throughout the whole process. We went in knowing very little about diamonds, or engagement rings, but thanks to Taylor’s guidance, we walked away feeling informed, confident, and excited about our choice! For what I imagine can be a somewhat stressful process, Taylor and Baraka made it very enjoyable. They also give at least 10% of sales to their Orphanage in K... read more
