I cant possibly say enough positive comments about my experience with Veleska Jewelry. All of the staff were enjoyable, helpful and easy to work with. From providing suggestions off the shelves to helping me with my own design. They kept me up to date on my order and ultimately assisted with expediting the delivery. Im extremely happy and grateful for their assistance. Ive already recommended Veleska to family and friends.

I met with Kathryn to design a custom bracelet. She listened attentively, took notes, sketched out what I was describing, and seemed to take great interest in the piece. She was visibly excited about the project and passionate about her design work. That passion and excitement came through in the beauty, balance, and elegance of the finished bracelet. Thank you to Kathryn and everyone at Veleska for your attention to detail and your passion for creating truly stunning and unique custom pieces of jewelry!

Kathryn created a beautiful contemporary ring using diamonds that have been in the family for decades but never displayed because of the out of date settings. Now I can enjoy their beauty and the memories behind each gem every day! She was great in communicating with me by providing pictures of her progress. Thank you!

I had a ring sized at Veleska. What a wonderful experience!! First let me say the staff could not be nicer or more friendly. It took a matter of minutes to find my correct size and place the order. They said it would be ready in 2 weeks but most likely would be sooner. It was ready in 3 days!!Now the best part. I picked up my ring and my mouth dropped open not only did it fit perfectly but it was simply gorgeous. It had not been worn in some time and now it sparkles like a disco ball. I just love it. I took a brief look at the jewelry due to time I had to leave but based on what I saw I will be back.Add to all that it is a Woman’s business I am in!!!HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Katheryn did a great job resizing our rings. You can’t even tell the difference! They even shipped the rings to us through next day delivery. The service is exceptional. When buying high budget items you expect care. Katheryn demonstrates care by listening closely and delivering great results. We plan on returning and continuing to be a client with Veleska. You’re in great hands here.

I had some family rings that had seen better days and I hoped to combine their stones into one piece of jewelry. I made an appointment with Kathryn at Veleska to see what ideas she might have. I really loved the unusual design of the one ring but its setting had collapsed. Kathryn was able to combine the other ring’s stone with the stones from that ring and designed a more updated looking setting while keeping the general design I loved. Small stones were added to enhance the design. She was able to show me a general mock up of the ring before I left the appointment. Less than a week later she sent me a plot of the casting for approval and less than two months later I picked up the beautiful custom ring! I loved it even more than I thought I would. Thank you Kathryn! I had a great experience!.

My wedding ring from 53 years ago needed help. I took it to Veleska Jewelry for rehab. They were friendly, efficient and totally understood what I wanted and needed done to my ring. I picked it up today and was astounded ! It is beautiful beyond my imagination! I havent been able to wear it for about 3 years so having it back means a lot to me. Thank you for making my day!!

From the moment I walked in the door, I was treated as a priority. There was nothing but positivity and friendliness within the walls of Veleska Jewelry. I had no clue about what to expect when it came to purchasing an engagement ring, but the service I received washed away any concerns I had. Kathryn has a beautiful collection and I enjoyed looking at everything that was shown to me. I feel as though I have a team by my side when it comes to my purchase and that makes it completely worth it. I could not have asked for a more enjoyable experience.

Beautiful jewelry in this store! And if you want an unique, quality, custom piece crafted by an artisan, then this is the place to go. If you can imagine it, Kathryn can make it a reality. Additionally, I have had excellent repair work done here, letting me keep favorite necklaces that needed new chains or rings that needed resized. This store is a locally owned and operated treasure.

20 years ago, I first met Kathryn, while I was preparing for my wedding. Her creative genius helped me find the perfect gifts for my wedding party.When I saw an advertisement billboard for Veleska Jewelry that featured a photograph, I knew I had to stop into the store. The staff was incredibly helpful. I was looking for a surprise anniversary gift for my husband. Kathryn knew exactly what I wanted and found it immediately. We ordered it, and it arrived with plenty of time to spare.Id highly recommend Veleska Jewelry. Their inventory is impressive. The artistry of Kathryns custom pieces is exquisite.

Let me start by saying that jewelry shopping for my wife is not easy. She knows what she likes and I know what I like to pay. Sometimes those streets just dont intersect. I have only shopped at Valeska two times but on both occasions I have been pleasantly surprised and quickly shown items that my wife loves and my wallet can endure. Their staff is a pleasure to work with and Im sure Ill be back again. Cheers!

If I could give Veleska Jewelry/Kathryn Pearce a 10 star review I would. Kathryn is an extremely knowledgeable jeweler/designer. Her talent is awesome. She has designed several rings for me. I love them all. This last design/reset of my engagement ring is off the charts!!!! If you have any questions about your existing jewelry, or want an original re-design of what already exists: CALL KATHRYN!!! You won’t be disappointed.

Kathryn’s new location is sunny and attractive. As usual, her staff are warm and welcoming. They are helpful without hovering. I had a special request for earrings for my daughter’s birthday. Kathryn presented several different designs and then created my custom earrings while I browsed.I have been shopping at Veleska Jewelry for many years. I look forward to seeing Kathryn’s latest creations, especially for Christmas. It is my go-to place for family birthdays and special occasions. There are always selections to fit my budget.

I participated in an online showing of jewelry and fell in love with many pieces -- but bought one. Unfortunately the one I wanted had already been sold, but I received photos of other stones that were similar to the one I had liked. It is a beautiful piece -- I love the colors, and how they are a little different on each side (two necklaces for the price of one!). Cant wait to wear it.

We have been repeat customers for several years and have made many purchases from Kathryns own designer pieces to regular settings. Weve brought in watches, rings, and bracelets to be repaired. Kathryn is an excellent artist and her designs are very unique. We value her experience, honesty and integrity. Her prices are very reasonable. Kathryn, along with her knowledgable staff, make every visit to the store very enjoyable.

Review №63

As a jewelry aficionado, I put Veleska at the very top of my list. While I have bought jewelry from a range of places, from discount stores to museum shops and trade shows, Kathryns taste and craftsmanship is unparalleled. She offers the most well-crafted settings, the loveliest colored stones and pearls, and true value in the pricing of it all. I own many of her pieces, from crystals and pearls to classic silver-and-gold, and wear them often; they exhibit that winning combination of classic style and artistic difference that make them stand out and shout quality. I also admire the effort she makes to offer her high-quality jewelry at all price points. Check out Veleska for yourself or for a gift. Whatever you choose will be a hit.

I went to Valeska Jewelry because I live on the east side of town and was looking for a jeweler to reset my diamond engagement ring. The staff was very friendly and Katherine assured me of what needed to be done. Since I was leaving on a trip she made an extra effort to get my ring back to me before we traveled. Although I had some trouble with the setting a few weeks later, she was very willing to correct the problem without making any additional charge. I am pleased with their service and commitment to quality and will return for future work or gifts.

I love jewelry! I love jewelry that is unique, one of kind, trendy and funky, but not what everyone else is wearing. I find that at Veleska. Whether it is just a fun pair of silver dangling earrings, a sweet ring for my daughter or customer made pair of earrings for my sons wedding, I go to Veleska. I am always more than pleased!

I made a telephone inquiry about getting my grandmothers wedding rings resized so I could wear them. The lady who answered was condescending and even laughed out loud at me because I didnt know what type of gold bands were made of. I got off the phone as quickly as I could and will be taking my jewelry needs elsewhere.

I called and asked if they have jewelry featuring frogs, and sure enough, they do! When I showed up, they had a nice little tray of froggies set aside for me. I picked the ones I liked, and the person I gave them to as gifts loved them! One of the froggies had a match that I didnt buy, but the Jeweler set it aside just in case I can come by later and add it to the one I have and get them made in to earrings. Nice place, excellent service!
