Highly recommend taking a peek in there and seeing what pops out at you . Great variety and friendly owners ! Looks like a family shop and that's where I like to spend to my money and time . Happened to walk in while In town for a hair appointment and found some gorgeous gold rings and a bracelet . I have been looking for something like this for a while now and Im so happy I walked in there . Delicate and fun and well made jewelry that makes me smile !

Gold Bloom recently made a ring for me based on a design that I gave them. Tim was a pleasure to work with! He is patient and has many great suggestions. I'm very pleased with the ring.

This review is for the rings - I now have 4 rings from Gold Bloom and I love them all - very timeless, go with all my other pieces silver or gold, and unique design that makes me feel beautiful when wearing. The quality is outstanding, one of the rings I have had 10 years (it was a college grad gift and I wear it 24/7) and it is like the day I got it, not worn down or anything and I do a lot with my hands (cleaning, gardening, sanding etc) When I was in the market for some stacking bands I almost when to a chain jewelry designer in Laguna Beach but I'm glad I came to Gold Bloom first! The jeweler even helped me customize one of the band's stones and finish. Gorgeous!

Best jewelry store in Sonoma County! I've moved from Healdsburg all the way to The Big Island now, however tnothing here compares to the quality with Gold Bloom. Excellent diamonds jewelry and jewelry repairs.

We had a terrible experience at this jeweler. My fiancé and I got our rings from one of our favorite jewelers in Portland. We needed to get them resized and due to Covid conditions I figured it would make sense to go local and get measurements taken and then get them re-engraved their after we get the rings back. This place came recommend from a family friend who has gotten multiple pieces designed at blooms, so we agreed and went there. I called upfront and had a bad feeling from the get go. The phone call was extremely unfriendly, borderline hostile, and pretty much told me that he doesn’t have time for new clients before I even asked my questions. At the end of the phone call he said to just come by. I wasn’t excited about it, but I figured oh well, maybe he’s having a rough day. Our family friend suggested she might give him a call and considering that he knows her and likes her ($$$$) that would change it all around. But we didn’t want him to be nice to us just because of that, so we just figured we would come in on a week day and just get it done. I called in the morning to make sure it was ok that we came in, his wife who answered said yes absolutely. I was a little reassured and thought maybe he had just had a bad day or something when I talked to him before. But when we came in it was the worst experience I’ve had at a jeweler, ever. He was with another customer, my fiancé and I weren’t in a rush so we just wandered around the store - we didn’t want to go and get coffee or anything as the air quality was in the unhealthy range of 230. After about 20 minutes, and after he had repeatedly looked up from his clients looking increasingly annoyed with them, he walks over to us and tells us that he’s with a client (as if we didn’t notice?) and that us standing there is applying a lot of pressure and if we could go for a walk and just come back later. First of all, we’re in the store patiently waiting and looking at other items in the store. Second of all, did I mention the unhealthy air quality? It was incredibly rude, and it made both of us incredibly uncomfortable. It was sad to see that he would treat us like that, but we know better now. We’re definitely not giving him any of our business, not the sizing, not the engraving and definitely not the wedding bands. What a pity to see an arrogant, bitter man who thinks he’s better than his customers make an event that should just be happy into something annoying, especially during the current times. I recommend you take your business anywhere else.

Tim is a top-notch craftsman of custom jewelry. Whether you are having your jewelry designed from scratch, or simply having existing gemstones put in different settings, his work is flawless. Highly recommended.

Tim made my wedding set back in 2007. I love it still. He listened and I contributed ideas about my dream ring and Urs even better than I hoped.

Tim designed my wife's engagement and wedding rings, and then sent them to me in Hawaii so I could propose on the beach in Maui 11 years ago- Tim is the best! I would go nowhere else - always professional, thoughtful and great customer service. Beautiful custom work on everything he does.

Not only do they overcharge but one of the owners deliberately weakened the clasp on my watch, and nicked the inside workings, essentially breaking the watch.

One of the owners, Tim, deliberately weakened the clasp on my watch, and nicked the inside workings, essentially breaking the watch. I had him change the battery in my Bulova, twice. The first time it only lasted 3 months, the second time 3 weeks. The second time I went in there my clasp worked fine but when he came out from the back, where he had changed the battery, I immediately put it back on and could feel the difference in the clasp, it was weaker. He ran to the back before I could say anything and I just walked out, hoping for the best. The WORST happened. A few days later it stopped completely. I took it to another jeweler hoping for better luck. He showed me how the clasp was weakened and fixed it for me, free of charge. Then he tried to change the battery and that's when he realized that the electronics had been nicked. I asked him if the 'nick' and the clasp problem could have been cause by changing the battery, an accident perhaps. I was emphatically told "No." Goldblum's has a very nasty way of generating business. Bottom line; I paid $70.00, (the cost of the 2 battery changes), to have that guy break my watch. Shame on him.
