My second time using David, the first was not positive but I wanted to give it a second chance as his work is beautiful.
First experience, he shouted at his assistant for taking my watch in for repair, saying "I'm a jeweller, I don't do f*cking watches". The watch he repaired was further damaged during the repair process.
I went back to get my wife's necklace repaired, a simple break. I asked him to look at it and what the options were. David explained the options and said he could repair it or get a new chain. I asked which he would recommend and he said, "well I've given you the options, just decide already", he them slammed an order pad on the counter and told me to fill it in.
I told him I didn't appreciate his attitude and would take my business elsewhere, he responded with "you know what, I don't give a sh*t."
This store is not worth your time, numerous residents of Alexandria have similar stories and worse regarding him losing other customers engagement rings.
David and his team made us feel welcome and never rushed as we came in MULTIPLE times while having a hard time deciding on the style of our rings. David was patient and kind throughout the process. Once we decided on the style, David made wax mock-ups for us to try on and created my ring in CAD so I could see it in 3D and color! Overall, excellent, timely, well crafted rings and fair pricing!
Gold Works is a jewelry store in Alexandria VA and while working down the street I used to walk to this store and talk to David about my ideas. I eventually used them and designed a custom engagement ring that was full of hand picked diamonds and other precious stones. I recommend this place if you're looking to design your own ring.
We went to Goldworks to buy rings. They're a small local store in Old Town Alexandria with only one location, which means they were very personable and attentive. They were very helpful and helped us pick out exactly what we wanted. They also do custom jewelry which looked very impressive. I highly recommend them.
