I popped in to see if they had a new chain for 2 beloved charms of mine. I've never been in before and it such a lovely store! Lisa helped me and she couldn't have been kinder. I had a budget I was working with and she found me a beautiful new chain and added my charms for me. Thank you! I'll definitely be a repeat customer in this sweet spot!

I can’t say enough good things about Water Street Jewelers! Both locations are as gorgeous as the beautiful pieces of jewelry on display. The variety of treasures available cover all of life’s special occasions and those where a little encouragement is in order. My husband purchased a gorgeous and superbly constructed diamond ring for me to celebrate our 20 year anniversary. Missing my sisters during the pandemic, I bought them matching bracelets with a special message letting them know how much I loved each of them. WSJ’s repair work is an important part of the services they offer as well. Because I never take off pieces that I wear, they suffer wear and tear. Knowing that I can bring them in and have quality repairs done in a timely fashion gives me peace of mind. The customer service is outstanding. Everyone I have encountered is friendly, patient and knowledgeable. Finally there’s something available for every price point. I absolutely love it here!

I took my daughter here to get her ears pierced and we couldn’t be more happy with our experience! The staff were so sweet to her (she’s 6)- she got to hold a special crystal during the piercing, they helped her pick out her first pair of earrings, and they just made a really big deal out of her so she felt super special and grown up. Lots of beautiful jewelry in the store as well!

What a wonderful place, Daniella was so empathetic when I told her my necklace with my fur baby’s memorial necklace broke. She immediately knew my pain and fixed it within seconds. I highly recommend this establishment and will always continue to do business with them. Thank you again so much ♥️

Super friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Shopping for my girlfriend, and not really sure what would be the best piece for her. The staff took the time to let me describe her likes and tastes, they looked at a myriad of pictures of her that I had, and helped me shop to find something that would suit her perfectly.

They have a very diverse selection, in all price ranges, and I didn't feel I was being driven towards the most expensive piece, but the best one for her. They gave me plenty of space, and no pressure whatsoever to make a decision. I left without making a decision that day, and a couple days later when I came back, they remembered exactly who I was, and the exact pieces I was looking at.

I will definitely shop there again, and would recommend so to anyone looking for something special, and unique that is suited to the individual.

I felt way more comfortable there than any jewelry store I have shopped in before, and it was a million times better than trying to pick something out on line.
