If you are searching for a 5-star jewelry shop that will treat you like royalty, then search no further! I had the wonderful experience of purchasing my engagement ring here for my beloved fiancee & I'm currently in talks with Tivol to purchas...e my wedding band here as well. The service is outstanding, I was immediately given a drink when I walked in the door & was treated with absolute respect. The gentlemen that assisted me was Ward Manes, a man with 30 years experience who GENUINELY cares about the customer. I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone that is interested in purchasing rings from Tivol.
Since we are all on a budget these days, Tivol is pricey, at least when compared to other jewelry stores like Zales, or Jarred's. This isn't because there is a huge mark up or they are trying to "get you", it's because they offer some of the best quality jewelry the market has to offer. Just to give you some perspective, I ended up purchasing a beautiful 20kt Rose Gold setting with a 1.25 radiant cut diamond (colorless) for a little over $9,000. According to various online diamond retailers and Max's Diamond Price Guide (which I recommend using to verify & validate you are paying market value and not getting screwed over), the diamond alone was worth $8,700. The setting I purchased was by a specific artist, Michael Bondanza (I also recommend his work), and that was worth $2,000 by itself. If you do the math, it's evident I received a fair deal and as a result, Tivol will continue to receive my business.
