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
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
Baraka Gems offers a beautiful and serene setting to purchase new jewelry, sell or reset your own cherished pieces. I first met with the owner, Jaime, to explore selling some gold and to reset a gem. Later, I had the pleasure of working with Ashlen, who helped my daughter and me resize a necklace. Everything is handled by appointment, making the experience feel calm and personalized. The pricing is also very reasonable. Highly recommend!
I came to Baraka to give my engagement ring a glow-up after 11 years of wear. Ashlen looked at my inspiration photos and designed a spectacular new ring that used my original diamond, adding sapphires to either side. The process was fun and simple, and Ashlen took my feedback seriously to make sure I'd be pleased with the final product. Customer service and responsiveness were great throughout. I would definitely recommend working with Baraka/Ashlen if you're looking to design something special in your budget. Have to go bac... read more
