I, a discerning perfectionist, cannot emphasize enough that this jeweler is a GODSEND. Ardem is a meticulous artist who will far exceed your expectations for an insanely fair price...
. I am a lifelong Cartier aficionado and I can honestly say, Ardem puts Cartier to shame. With Ardem's workmanship, price, quality of diamonds, and overall trustworthiness, Simon Ardem truly stands in a league of its own. I have been on the search for a reliable jeweler for many years and after experiencing the predatory nature of the diamond business from high end boutiques to the Diamond District, I was very discerning in vetting my next jeweler. Not only am I ashamed for ever doubting this extraordinaire, I am finally relieved to have found my lifelong jeweler. I am elated to have this jeweler crystallize my next vision and eventually my engagement ring. Beyond grateful for answered prayers!
Simon is able to source great stones and use the best artisans to create exactly what you're looking for, all at amazing prices. Simon is INCREDIBLE!
I visited Ardem at his office as I was in the market for an engagement ring. Prior to meeting with him, I was searching for a jeweler for over a year but did not feel comfortable w...
ith any of them. I was recommended by a friend to reach out to Ardem. I couldn't have been happier with my decision.
Ardem is not only very knowledgeable with all things jewelry and jewelry design, but he is open and honest with thoughts and opinions he shares. He genuinely wanted to learn about our relationship, from how we met to what makes us the couple we are. He helped guide me to the perfect diamond I was looking for. I already had a custom setting design in mind and I detailed it out with Ardem. He loved it and gave me his thoughts and minor alterations which I accepted and appreciated.
The engagement ring came out spectacular. I did not have one single complaint or regret. My wife loves it and continuously receives compliments on how bright the stone is and how clean of a setting design. Ardem has since designed our wedding bands as well as beautiful bracelets we gave as gifts to the bridesmaids.
I was originally referred to Ardem from a friend. It was an absolute pleasure meeting and working with him. He took the time to talk with me to understand my diamond needs. I highl...

very professional and worked within the timeline he promised. I look forward to using him as my jeweler for many more wonderful pieces of jewelry.
This place is truly phenomenal. I was very inexperienced with jewelry and Ardem made me feel so comfortable and taken care of. He reset a diamond passed down from my grandmother ...
onto a beautiful new band with little diamonds cascading down the sides. He has the best prices and brings a really valuable personal touch to each one of his pieces. I made sure to go back for our wedding bands and once again, he nailed it. My dad even went to him to turn an old family ring into a beautiful new necklace for my mom. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Look no further than Simon Ardem for all your jewelry needs.
I was referred to Simon by a co-worker and choosing to schedule my initial appointment with him was one of the best decisions I've ever made.
Simon took the time to educate me on ...
my different options and was able to give me an amazing diamond at a price that was substantially lower than any other jeweler I visited. His professional and calm demeanor removed all of the stress from the buying process.
If you or anyone you know is in the market for an engagement ring, I HIGHLY recommend setting up an appointment with him.
Thank you Simon!
I have been a customer of Simon Ardem for more than two years and he has helped me choose my fiance’s engagement ring, as well as her and my wedding bands. I had the good fortune ...
of being connected to Ardem through another satisfied customer. I’ve been very happy with my experience and I have no reservation referring him to others. His atelier is a relaxing, comfortable environment to view and consider your jewelry options. I didn’t feel pressured at any time while I was engagement ring shopping. Most importantly, my fiancé loves everything about her engagement ring and her wedding band, from the stones to the workmanship. Great results all around.
