Not impressed with the way I was talked to. I understand that my preference might be very different from the one of the employees, but I did not expect to be laughed at. Will not be returning.

Don’t go here, these people are rude. 3 out of 3 times they were rude to me. Maybe it’s because I’m brown , idk. I live in the neighborhood but in the future I will totally avoid. But go to Bills Trading Post, it’s always a great and pleasant experience there!

I would give 10 stars if I could. My wedding ring was made here in 2010, and I have had 2 other custom rings, as well as repairs of antique family pieces done. All top-notch. Most highly recommended.

John is a wonderful person and a great jeweler. He has always been able to quickly understand what I want made and has great ideas about how to create something even better than I had imagined. He is also very fair about pricing.

This place is an absolute gem (pun intended). They’re really knowledge about jewelry, have a great selection and always super helpful. I’ve also had a few special pieces fixed and cleaned by them. Love this place.

Needed a gold band split in half and John said to come over now and he would do it while I wait. He was kind and gracious. We've had more detailed work done in the past and have always been pleased. A neighborhood treasure. Thanks!

John and Team did an amazing job on my diamond pendant. The craftsmanship is impeccable. They pay attention to the fine details especially is custom made with specific request. I highly recommend 14 Karats for all your jewelry needs. Thank you so much John and Team!

The 14 Karats is a father and son shop. I really like these guys--affable and honest. And they have the sweetest dog there who might come and greet you.A few years back, my wife and I bought our wedding rings from them after we sold some jewelry for credit. Kerry, the son, worked with us on the types of bands, taking plenty of time to take us through a number of options. My wife and I both love the rings they made for us.And I remember, rather amusingly, that John, the father, said my ring size was right in the middle of 2 sizes, and recommended I take the larger one because folks tend to gain weight as they get older. Let's just say that was the right call.I've also worked with John on the aforementioned sale to them, as well as getting quotes on other pieces more recently.Bottom line: these guys are good guys and you should visit their store for both purchasing and selling jewelry.

I have shopped at this local jewelry store several times before, but not since the pandemic, so I called to make sure they were open and had what I wanted, stud earrings. They assured me that they had several earrings so I went over. You have to ring the bell to get in so they know you are there. No one came to greet me or show me the earrings. I snooped around the store and found some. There weren't very many and prices were not displayed. I was snooping for about ten minutes, still no help from the staff/owner(?). There were two men working in a small back office that is open to the show room so I could see them and they could see me. So why they didn't wait on me is beyond me. Finally I gave up and walked toward the door. One of the guys from the back office called out - can I help you. "No thanks!" Well he said, I tried to help you before but you ignored me. Seriously??? He didn't try to help me and now he was insulting me...No way will I be back. I went across the street to Bill's Trading post and bought two pair of beautiful stud earrings and felt good about spending my money there.

Wanted to create a custom ring and my mom recommended 14 Karats since she purchased from them in the past. I made multiple visits to work out with John exactly how I wanted the ring and eventually found a gorgeous stone in another ring they had for sale. I initially wanted a more delicate ring but John explained that rose gold was softer and a sturdier ring would last forever. I love what he created for me.

True artisan jewelers who have integrity and non-cookie cutter designs and ideas. John has been on College Ave for 45 years. I LOVE my rings he’s designed. Highly recommend!

We just got a plain gold wedding band, and the services was very straightforward and prompt. We chose the size/width/material, and it was ready the next week. They were patient with answering our questions. Price was very similar to a big box store. Can't wait to wear the ring! They also have a cute dog that hangs out in the store.
