I also want to chime in since there are several negative reviews. I came here several times while wedding ring shopping. I really liked the owner--yes she is a little quirky--but clearly knows her stuff. We almost bought a reproduction she made of a 1920s-style engagement ring, but in the end we settled on a different ring. Anne was low-pressure with sales and obviously showed a lot of pride in the custom work she did for other people. I would definitely give her my business in the future.

I've been coming to Edelweiss Jewelers for almost 5 years now, and I just love this place. Everything I've purchased here has been of the highest quality, and most importantly each piece is treasured by my girlfriend. So this little jewelry shop isn't good at cranking out watch battery replacements in two days. So what? You don't go to chez panisse looking for a quick burger, right? What the store is good at is making unique, custom rings (melted down from raw gold and formed by hand) and it's good at having a consistent, ta... read more

My fiance and I went ring-browsing on College Ave, and by chance Edelweiss was the first one that we went to. I adored the first ring that I looked at (an antique), and I liked the owner's quiet attentiveness. She wasn't pushy, and seemed to love her inventory and be passionate about her craft. We went on to look at other jewelry stores in Elmwood and Rockridge, and ended up back at Edelweiss a couple of hours later, and purchased the first ring. She only purchases diamonds from conflict-free sources.

This place is absolutely brilliant for making custom bands with any possible design you can come up with. Anne, the owner, is a lovely French woman with a keen artistic sensibility that is indeed a standout from cookie cutter designs that you can find at Tiffany.Make sure when you come in, don't pressure her for time; she's a perfectionist who loves designing bands.

Expertly added more gold to the ring – Ann is amazing! My fiance and I happened to walk in out of the blue (an hour after she normally closed) and I asked her to take a look at my antique engagement ring which needed to be re-sized. She was more than happy to help us even though it was after hours and was very helpful. She let us know that the reason it kept turning around on my finger was because it was top heavy and she expertly added more gold to the ring and sized it at a VERY reasonable cost (about half of what we were ... read more

I have been coming here for over 10 years. I have gotten many, many gifts for my ex-girlfriends... Anne has always been helpful and thoughtful.

This is not a run of the mill jewelers. The jeweler, Anne, custom makes rings for people, especially committment rings, which can be in three different languages, and you design. Same sex couples can be very comfortable going there at least we were and so were our friends we are a transgender couple.My partner and I and good friends all got our committment rings there and were very happy with them. Yes, the jeweler is a bit quirky, you may set a date with her, but she doesn't like to guarrantee the date because she wants to ... read more
