We love the family at Pave Jewelers. We started out our search for engagement rings feeling kind of self conscious about what we could do in budget. The Pave team was such a pleasant sigh of relief. They made us feel heard and valued. We felt that celebratory feel about getting married again! They created our perfect engagement ring. I highly recommend them for their skill, professionalism, and for being an all around great local business to support.
I wish every company operated like Pave! Service with a smile, a genuine concern for the customers, and good products. I plan to tell everyone I know about this hidden gem.
Love this small and personal jeweler - I was able to design a band for my fiance with a hidden diamond inside which he absolutely loved. I am currently in the process of designing and editing my own setting - Vishal has been amazing through this process and I cant say enough about the time and patience he has for his customers. Def recommend them for all jewelry needs!!!
The team at Pave is incredible. The family owned and operated business is everything you would expect from such an operation - professional, knowledgeable, and extremely trustworthy. Vishal and Kavish made me feel extremely comfortable and provided sound advice through the entire process, not to mention soundly conducted our exchanges and the buying process amidst a global pandemic. At no point did I feel pressured or hurried to make a decision on one of the larger purchases of my life - they were extremely attentive and thoughtful and even sent a hand-written note congratulating me and my to-be fiance. I will absolutely seek out their business in the future based on my experience.
I cannot say enough good things about Vishal and Kavish at Pavé!! My husband and I purchased both my engagement ring and our wedding bands here and we had the best experience. We used my grandmother’s heirloom diamond for my engagement ring so we knew we didn’t want just anyone making our rings.. Pave did not disappoint. Kavish and Vishal walked us through all the options in a very personal appointment and helped us pick the perfect setting. They then produced a gorgeous ring exactly as envisioned. When we returned for our wedding bands, I had some difficulty finding the perfect fit (my ring size changes considerably with the weather). Vishal and Kavish were so willing to help- squeezing in adjustments for me even when they were already booked. They made sure my husband and I had exactly what we needed and exceeded our expectations in all areas. We’d recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat!
I just realized I somehow never got around to reviewing this amazing business that made my wifes gorgeous engagement ring as well as our wedding bands back in 2016. Vishal was a pleasure to work with and did an incredible job collaborating with me to design the beautiful engagement ring and made sure it was ready in time for me to propose. Highly recommend Pavé to anyone looking for a great local experience shopping for engagement rings, wedding rings, or other jewelry in the DC area.
I got a beautiful ring for my fiancé. Vishal responded quickly to any questions and had the ring in the mail promptly. He was so kind whenever we talked. We had a huge mixup with the delivery company and Vishal did all he could to help me. By the grace of God I got the ring and I am so thankful that I did. Vishal’s care for his customers is obvious and I am so grateful for his help.
I found Vishal and Pave online when I was looking for an engagement ring several years ago. Vishal was the 5th person Id spoken with after visiting the popular jewelry stores, but he was the 1st person to give me sound advice. More importantly, you can tell he knows what hes talking about and guided me so I didnt make a mistake in purchasing my engagement ring. If youre looking for a ring, necklace or any custom jewelry - Pave is the place to go!!
All of the Rolex stores were sold out of the Rolex I wanted, but these guys had it! And their price was very competitive. If you’re in the market for a watch or jewelery, they will treat you fair, do not hesitate to do business with them. Thank you again.
Pave jewelers is the absolute best in all aspects. My husband bought my engagement ring here, we bought our wedding rings here and even 4+ years later, the customer service is still beyond amazing. I would absolutely recommend Pave Jewelers to anyone looking to invest in quality jewelry. Vishal and Kavish are the best!
I purchased an engagement ring through Pave Jewelers online and had a great experience. Vishal was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the process, and the ring turned out perfectly. I would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend them to others.
Great customer service and amazing selection of designs! My ring is very unique and I absolutely love it. It’s exactly what I wanted. These guys did a great job for us.
These guys were great. They were flexible with their scheduling, friendly, knowledgeable, patient in explaining different options, and produced an engagement ring and wedding bands exactly like we wanted. We could not be happier with our experience with them and would recommend them to anyone.
My husband and I heard about Pave Jewelers from friends who have continuously used Pave for engagement rings and wedding bands. When it was time to pick our wedding bands, we decided to give them a try and were not disappointment! The brothers that own the store were great to work with, very personable. They were able to work within a price range and quickly deliver the bands within two weeks of the wedding date. I can’t wait to celebrate future anniversaries so I can pick out more jewelry from Pave!
These guys are amazing. We had our first consult before Covid and they were very patient with us, really beginning our ring search. We came in for a second visit and they answered all of our questions and we never felt pressured to make any decisions. We were in the middle of the process when Covid happened and they were flexible, included video calls about the final design and continued to communicate with us during the delays that Covid caused. The final product is amazing and I couldnt be happier with Vishal and his brother.
Pavé is an outstanding jeweler, I truly could not have asked for a better experience. I recently purchased and engagement ring from Vishal, who was great to work with. Every step of the way, I received excellent customer service and stayed in constant communication about the next steps I needed to take and the progress of the ring. They are honest and take time to educate you on purchasing a ring/stone while providing expert recommendations. They have a very nice showroom in which you can look at the different designs they offer and look at different stone options. The appointments are one on one, which gives you time without feeling rushed or pressured. One of the coolest aspects of their business is that they let you add customization to the designs you like if that is something you are interested in. This allowed me to design a ring that very few people if anyone else has. The finished product I recieved exceeded my expectations and was clearly made with care. My fiance loved the ring she got and has received tons of compliments in the short time shes had it. I would absolutely reccomend Pavé and will be using them in the future for our wedding bands. Customer service is excellent, pricing is fair, quality of work is exceptional and best of all, it is an well run business by good people.
Vishal was super helpful throughout the ring buying experience. I was on a very tight timeline and he did everything he could to meet it. I bought the ring sight unseen, and the quality of work was exactly as advertised. I cant recommend this jeweler enough. Thanks Vishal!
I could not be happier or more impressed with my experience with Pave. I went into the process never having bought a piece of jewelry in my life, and the staff there patiently explained and walked me through the engagement ring buying process, different styles, what to look for in a diamond, and really everything about it. After my first session I had a better idea of what my bride-to-be wanted, and again they took the time to carefully explain things to me and we found a diamond that she absolutely loves (she said yes!). During the entire process I never felt rushed, never felt pushed into buying something that was more expensive than I wanted, and overall felt like they were interested in helping me pick the perfect ring instead of just seeing me as another customer. Cant recommend highly enough and will be going back there for wedding bands!
My fiancé and I bought our engagement ring and bands through Pave and our experience was so enjoyable. They are professional and extremely friendly, it is truly a personal experience from beginning to end. Highly recommend!!
I had a great experience when I bought a pair of earrings from Vishal. When I needed a repair (my fault) years later, he went above and beyond to help me out. Strong recommend.
Vishal was extremely patient and helpful. He took the time our first meeting to go over the basics and be completely honest and transparent about the process. Excellent customer service. Would highly recommend.
I recently purchased an engagement ring from Pavé (...and she said yes!). I had visited a number of jewelry shops in the NOVA area and also in Boston. Pavé was the best experience I had. The owner, Vishal, and his brother were extremely knowledgeable. They were not pushy and actually encouraged me to take my time in selecting the perfect ring. I had been shopping around for a couple months so I had a basic understanding of size, cut, clarity, color etc. however, Vishal showed me how changes in size, color, and clarity could impact the final cost and ultimately helped me decide which characteristics mattered the most to be able to chose the perfect diamond for my budget. I was shown an excellent selection of oval cut diamonds (her desired cut) and very stylish setting options. I would highly recommend Pavé Jewelers and will continue to be a customer in the future.
Pave is professional, A+ quality and just an overall excellent experience. Vishal and his brother are honest and go over and beyond to help their customers. Just recently helped us pick out a wedding band and were so patient and made us a custom band that was both GORGEOUS and the best pricing we received from any other jeweler. Trust me - go to PAVE!
The level of customer service, attention to detail, patience and overall professionalism exhibited by Pave Jewelers was great. I didnt pay full price for the rings I purchased but I did receive the highest level of customer service during the process. I highly recommend Pave Jewelers to anyone interested in buying fine jewelry.
The ring I got from Pave Jewelers was amazing. All of my friends and now wife loves it, I cant stop getting compliments for it. The customer service I received in the whole process was just phenomenon! Vishal was more knowledgeable than most of the chain jewelry stores I visited and a lot more patient. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a great ring at a good price.
Highly recommend this business. Recently bought a diamond ring from Pave. The entire experience was one of high professionalism. All information is shared with honest transparency. Will not hesitate to do business there again.
Extremely good customer service & high quality for the price. They also sent me the CAD model of the ring, which was a really nice touch (as an engineer myself).
I set up an appointment with Vishal at 7pm on a Tuesday. He kindly and patiently spent the next hour showing me and discussing with me several watches I was interested in. I felt absolutely no pressure and was well taken care of the entire time. Perhaps the best customer service I’ve ever experienced and I hope to get the chance to do business with Pave soon.
5 STAR / A++ RATING.. Purchased a watch and received it the next day halfway across the US! Thanks Vishal and Pave for wonderful customer service and trustworthiness. Look forward to more business with you guys in the future.
Such amazing service! Vishal is so great to work with. He is incredibly knowledgeable. He remembers his costumers and asks about our lives. Even though we moved out of the area, my husband and I will continue to go to Pave for all of our jewelry needs.
It’s a bit intimidating and nerve wrecking when researching and looking for your perfect wedding rings, but Pave Jewelers made it such an easy process for me and my now new husband! If you’re looking for excellent customer service, fast response time, someone that’s diligent but most importantly honest — Vishal is the guy for you. I can’t recommend him highly enough!
Can’t say enough good things about Vashil and Kavish. They were extremely patient and helpful with me in regards to designing the ring, and got the custom ring done in record time. I proposed to my now fiancée this weekend and she loved the ring! We will definitely be coming back to design wedding bands.
Found my grail watch through their post on an online watch forum. Vishal immediately responded to my inquiry and was able to quickly set up an appointment right after New Years day. I met Kavish in person who was nothing but patient and figuratively (and literally) walked me through the process of purchasing the watch. He answered all my questions. He also took the time to walk me to their trusted watch repair shop to have the bracelet adjusted. I highly recommend Vishal and Kavish and look forward to doing business with them in the future.
I live about 2 1/2 hours from Vishal’s store, but I made the drive to look at a watch I had been admiring for some time. I met both Vishal and his brother and both were true gentlemen and a pleasure to work with. At the end of the day I bought the watch I wanted and it is in near mint to mint condition and fairly priced, so the drive was definitely worth it. If you are looking for jewelry or timepieces I can not recommend Pave highly enough. The next time I am in the market for the types of things they sell I will definitely be back.
I bought a high-value watch from him, instead of jewelry. Vishal was extremely patient and was very understanding throughout the whole process. I seriously cannot recommend him enough, he deserves more than five stars! Deal with confidence!
Couldnt have asked for a better experience when shopping for an engagement ring - Vishal was extremely informative, and most helpful in finding exactly what I was looking for in terms of both style and value. The craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into our custom build still nets my (now) wife compliments on a regular basis. Returning several months later for our wedding bands yielded similarly expert assistance and equally great results. Thank you again for everything!
I feel so lucky to look at my beautiful engagement ring and wedding band every day. It is an amazing reminder of my special wedding day and my sweet husband. The ring is even more special because of the amazing experience that my husband had purchasing it with Vishal at Pave Jewelers. While all the planning was a total surprise for me, my husband absolutely raved about how seamless Vishal made the process. He took time to teach Rick everything he needed to know, and was honest, patient, and calming throughout. Almost two years later, I am still in love with my ring - the quality is amazing. We will be Pave customers for life.
Vishal does a phenomenal job and delivers an amazing product. He genuinely knows what hes talking about and takes steps to ensure youre getting the best product he can produce. I went in to get an engagement ring custom made with a short turnaround time (2-3 weeks) and he made a point to get it done as quickly as was possible. I got to see samples of the type of ring I wanted and he brought in a number of stones to meet my requirements, each with GIA reports to choose from. On top of all this the pricing was the lowest of the 4 jewelers I looked. He personally made a point to ensure I was satisfied with my product and I would highly recommend him because of it.
Amazing service, pricing, and of course the jewelry is perfect in every way. I bought very high priced items on-line which can be very scary when talking expensive diamonds, rings, and bands. The items were delivered as promised and the quality was above and beyond what I expected. This place is honest, fast, and the communication was more than I ever expected.
My husband and I discovered Pave Jewelers, like so many others, by reading the numerous positive reviews available online. After meeting Vishal and his staff, we can attest that those 5-star reviews are well deserved. As has been commented elsewhere, Vishal is a true professional, clearly knowledgeable about the diamond trade and willing to share his vast expertise with the client. He carefully walked us though each step of the process and was exceedingly patient throughout. We never felt rushed nor up-sold, but had the impression Vishal was more invested in our happiness than making a quick buck. In the end, Pave Jewelers created a ring even more beautiful than promised at a competitive price. We would recommend Pave, without exception, to anyone in the market for an engagement and/or wedding ring.
Vishal is the man! my new Rolex is on the way to New Zealand from his store and I couldnt be happier, I was able to pay the watch off and a few months which made it easy and give me the chance to own such an amazing watch, without his help I wouldnt have been able to buy this watch, Thanks a lot Vishal!!!Regards,Sam Raines
I stopped by Pave today and met Vishal and his brother. I didnt make a purchase, but Vishal spent a good amount of time showing me his awesome collection and shared some of his insights on a piece I strongly desired but was on the fence about due to the current inflated price of Rolexes steel sports models.Will definitely try to ask the two brothers first when I start to look again for a different purchase!
Fantastic and incredibly forthright experience. Absolutely would recommend!
This place is the best. They helped custom design an engagement ring for me that blew my fiancées mind for a fraction of the price of a designer name attached to it.
This place is the best kept secret of the D.C. metro area. If you desire the perfect piece of jewelry and peace of mind in acquiring it, look no further than Pave Jewelers. They specialize in custom jewelry, particularly for engagement rings and can work with many budgets and desires. They turn the dreaded “engagement ring hunt” into a pleasurable and educational journey.I had the extreme pleasure of working with Vishal and his brother, Kavish; who besides being experts in their field are two of the most down to earth people you will ever meet. They utterly obliterate every stereotype of the jewelry industry. They are honest and never upsell you. All they want is to deliver what you wish to you. They are trustworthy in every sense. More importantly, they are patient. They really want to get it perfect. And that starts by listening to the customer.I had the pleasure of getting a recommendation from a trusted connection to speak to them. The initial consultation was 45 minutes but we wound up speaking much longer. They were interested in building a genuine relationship. They thoroughly explained their process and best of all, when they quote you a price, they stick to that price.I tried working with other jewelers but they didn’t want to let me provide the stone (because they wanted to ‘source’ it to pad their profit margin). Vishal didn’t care. In fact he appreciated the time and effort I went to in procuring a stone and helped me design the perfect ring around it. I knew what I wanted for a stone, but for the ring, I was clueless. He spent a lot of time walking me through various designs and possibilities until we came up with something that is a one-of-a-kind heirloom piece. In fact, I originally thought I wanted a halo design but after speaking with Vishal I realized that it wouldn’t do justice to the main stone, so we went in a completely opposite direction. The end result was beyond perfection. When my fiancée and I go into jewelry stores, other salespeople immediately ask about the ring. Everyone has remarked how “we have never seen that ring before ever.”What impresses me the most is how much Vishal stands behind his products and is truly interested in ensuring perfection. For example, we had originally wanted “eagle prongs” for the ring but when Vishal’s setter informed him that there was a chance that the main stone (ruby) could be scratched with eagle prongs, Vishal told him to use prongs that would have 0% chance of scratching and then he would check with me if I wanted to take the risk. But Vishal presented me with a finished ring that had softer prongs so I could see first-hand how beautiful the deviation from original concept was. Vishal is a subject matter expert and he knew that the risk wasn’t worth it even if I had asked for something. It’s that discretion and expertise that is rare in today’s world. Incidentally I kept the new version of the prongs because the ring turned out even better.Vishal also does a free re-size of the ring if it doesn’t quite hit the mark the first time and one free professional cleaning prior to the wedding. He wants you to be happy. Truly.Guys, if you are in the market for an engagement ring have a chat with Vishal. Ladies, if you are in the market for an engagement ring, find a way to subtly get Vishal’s information to your guy. I enjoyed my experience with Vishal so much that I am exploring more ways to utilize his services. Luckily for me, he specializes in fine watches. Thank you Vishal and Kavish. You made what was supposed to be a painful process for guys into an extremely pleasurable experience and memory. My fiancée is over the moon as well. She thanks you as well.
Great people. Informative and professional.
Pave Jewelers provided me the best customer service possible. I ordered a gold love evanescense ring for my girlfriend for Christmas. When she tried it on, she felt it was too tight. I contacted Pave about the issue and they told me I could bring it to a local dealer to tap it out to a larger size. The jeweler we brought it to tapped it out too big and it became too loose. I explained the problem again to Pave and they brought the ring back, resized it proper, and sent it back to me in only a few days with no additional charge. These guys are great and I will be sure to give them my business in the future.
Best place in DMV to purchase a ring. Honestly, Vishal and Kavish are the most genuine people I have ever met in this business. They just want to educate you first about your choice, so you can make a good decision based on your knowledge. I was in talks with another jeweler but needed to figure out my ring size and randomly found Pave jewelers to stop in for my ring size, I ended up loving them so much and decided to get my engagement ring from Pave jewelers.Vishal and Kavish go above and beyond to bring your vision to life. They want to give you the best possible result and with honesty.I had so many changes and requests, they never rushed me or made me feel like I was asking for too much.If you are in the market for engagement ring...Pave jewelers is the place!
They do amazing work at great pricing with phenomenal service! Have used Pavé multiple times and will continue to use them in the future.
We cant recommend Pave Jewelers enough. Vishal truly cares about helping his customers find or design the perfect ring, and the quality of his rings is exceptional. My now husband got my engagement ring here, and we loved it so much we also got our wedding bands from Vishal so much. If you want excellent customer service and stunning jewelry, go see Vishal!
My fiancé and I found Pave Jewelers through the Washingtonian after visiting nation-wide, regional, and local jewelers. In my fiancés words, Vishal was awesome. He didnt pressure us, really listened, and understood what we wanted. He made it easy for me. It was a sweet coincidence that Pave Jewelers is next door to the restaurant where we met on our first date. I completely agree with my fiancés strongly positive review and look forward to returning for milestone gifts in the future!
I absolutely loved working with Vishal to find the perfect engagement ring for my fiancée! He is passionate about his work, personable and easy to talk to, and offers a great selection at an affordable price. I highly recommend Pave and Vishal!
I worked with Vishal at Pave Jewelers on an engagement ring for my now-fiance. I cannot recommend this store highly enough. The process was seamless, easy, competitively priced. Vishal walked a complete newbie through the ring process, diamonds, what everything means and what to look for.I ultimately met with him three times, and never once did I feel pressured by a salesperson - this was a one-man operation who had a very high standard of work.I spent about 6 months visiting jewelers and surveying the landscape, visited a dozen jewelers - I landed at Pave based on its location, initially.But I ultimately felt the most confident in both the jeweler and the product at Pave. For a purchase that carries considerable stress, Vishal could not have been better to work with.The ring, too, is fantastic. I had the utmost confidence in the product being delivered after all of the diligence Vishal gave me. Very impressed on all fronts and could not give a higher rating to the services available with Pave.
Wow! A friend of mine suggested I follow Pave on Instagram. I instantly thought I found the perfect wedding band. I reached out to Vishal and immediately got back to me with options. Going to the storefront was a completely different experience from any other jeweler I had been to before! There were so many unique options for bands and I ended up going with a design I hadnt even imagined. We reset my engagement ring so it went well with the band and it feels and looks like something I have always dreamt of!! Thanks Vishal! You are one of a kind.
Pave Jewelers (Vishal) did an awesome job designing my fiance’s engagement ring. I made my consultation appointment at Pave Jewelers because of its great location and high reviews. I went in knowing nothing about diamonds or jewelry and left feeling very educated. Vishal told me everything I needed to know and then some. Vishal is really friendly and, throughout the ring buying process, never once made me feel pressured. He helped me every step of the way, from picking a diamond to designing the setting. My fiance had a very specific idea of what she wanted and Vishal made it happen. I would recommend him to anyone and definitely plan to work with Pave Jewelers again in the future.
This review is long overdue. Yes, Vishal is amazing and a diamond in the rough (pun intended) in respect to many of the other 5 star ring dealers that Ive met with during this process.To help others understand my perspective, I want to first explain my goals / approach to ring buying, and how I decided on Vishal. Before going to any ring dealers, I Yelp searched for local places that had both the highest ratings and highest number of reviews (~= most credibility). Then, I went to about 5-6 places total after some online education. After going to the best rated places in the DC metro area, I started to notice a selling pattern that made me uncomfortable and out of control of the whole process. For example: Several places would only show a few stones (3-4) at a time, blur the differences between GIA and EGL certification in price differences. At each place, I asked for a quote for a similar diamond/ring combination so I would have a standard to compare general pricing across places. I found that prices would range as much as over $1500 between places for no apparent reason (same GIA diamond, same metal, ring size, etc...).I finally met Vishal at Pave Jewelers after previously visiting about 5-6 other places in the DC metro area. Pave Jewelers works by appointment only and is a small, one-on-one concierge service experience that is different than any other place Ive been to.As a person, Vishal is very patient, kind, a great listener, and builds trust immediately (my inner physician has high standards). For example: when he knew my price range and preferences, he scheduled a second visit where he brought around 10 stones (none of which he owned) for me to compare--more than any other place Ive visited. He also patiently showed me the GIA certification images to compare the details of the qualities (inclusions, color, etc...) of each one and showed me his dealer prices to show that he isnt profiting off the stones to the degree most other larger companies were. He also patiently helped me design a ring which combined everything I wanted (which my inner engineer and graphic designer makes hard to please). Also, to my surprise, he was very affordable, as I presented the same design idea to two places I previously visited and I thought had potential, but their quotes were still much higher and their customer experience paled in comparison to visiting Pave Jewelers.In terms of educating customers, when I shared what little background I read online, he not only confirmed what I read, but also expanded my learning by helping me understand how a lot of the larger companies work. For someone who likes to over-research every purchase, I appreciated it so much. He was very transparent with the entire process, and this is something I didnt truly appreciate until after going to several other 5-star ring dealers in the area before visiting his business.A few things that still stand out in my mind: During my first visit, after answering all my questions and educating me beyond what I already read online, he wasnt in any rush for me to make a decision or commit to him, but only expressed that he hoped that the visit was helpful in my overall search, regardless if I end up with him or someone else. Even to this day, after my most recent visit to alter my wedding band, he still never fails to go above and beyond by offering to ship it to me for free in case it comes in after I move out of town.If you are someone who enjoys researching big purchases and has the patience and drive to educate themselves before making this investment, I would recommend a similar approach to mine--but only go to 1-2 places before going to Vishal for perspective. If you are someone who has less time to commit to this process, just go directly to him. Regardless what your situation is, if you are looking for a ring, I wanted to extend my highest recommendation to Vishal at Pave Jewelers. You will not be disappointed!
Vishal is awesome! My fiancee loves the ring! One of a kind!
In pursuit of the perfect engagement ring for my fiancée, I visited numerous jewelers throughout the DMV all of which left me feeling uninformed and ill at ease. Pave Jewelers was a breath of fresh air.During the selection of the stone and design of the ring, Vishal was both responsive and proactive. First, he really listened and internalized the design I had in mind, and then offered creative and insightful suggestions to bring the design to the next level. The final product was the perfect balance of elegance and unconventionality, and needless to say my fiancée loved it!The pricing of the stone and setting was incredibly competitive. Paves lean business model, from his ownership of all stones to his sleek office space, inspired confidence that I was getting value for money. Also, Vishal was completely transparent on the a la cart pricing options of various stones and settings. Vishals sales tactics center on an educated customer and through the process I felt informed and empowered.Vishals customer service is above and beyond. I imposed on Vishal a very tight timeline ahead of my intended proposal date with the added complexity travel arrangements. He would have to rush deliver the ring and ship it to me mid-travel. Despite these constraints, Vishal devised a strategy and delivered the product to me mid-travel with a positive attitude and an air of certainty. He treated the situation like he was dealing with an old customer with whom he had worked with for years, despite that fact that I had only known him for a few days.I strongly encourage all DMV or online customers to experience Pave for themselves.
Really nice guy and very helpful.
