When my parents passed, I inherited a large amount of generational valuables, including silver and artwork. Joe and his team provided me with exceptional guidance, resulting in sales that exceeded my expectations. It was a pleasure to work with you, and it gave me confidence in doing what is best for my family. Thank you, Joe.

I always stop by Bella Rosa whenever I'm on state street. They have the best selection of estate jewelry in Santa Barbara, from every era. It's truly amazing, like visiting a little museum. I have bought earrings and a pendant there and have had many repairs done, always perfectly. I've also had multiple appraisals completed and left feeling that the owner was straightforward and very knowledgable. The salespeople always have a smile and brighten my day!

I was walking by this jewelry store after grabbing a coffee on state street. They had the exact submariner I have recently been looking for in the window. I already own other Rolex watches and was rudely told that it wasn't for sale. A nice guy with glasses said "we have more back here" and then an older woman cut him off saying "no not for sale" to the gentleman. She said they're part of the owners "private collection". Can someone tell me why a "private Rolex collection" would be displayed only in the store and not for sale?! Especially when it's daily user watches such as a submariner...not really a big "showpiece" in my opinion. I was incredibly surprised and taken aback. It appeared they were profiling me in my yoga outfit as I'm out running errands and would come back to purchase but simply asked a question. They lost a potential customer and I'll be sure to tell others in the area not to shop here after being treated so unkindly. I'm not materialistic or one to boast but at the time I was also wearing a hefty price tag worth of jewelry on my body. Not bashing a small business, only giving my first hand experience as a customer.

I had a tight ring on and needed to get it cut off. I called many jeweler in the area, but the my could not accommodate my need. I called Bella Rosa and they accommodated me right away. Alan was very thoughtful and professional when cutting off the ring. He did not give up when it was difficult to cut off. I cannot recommend this place enough!

I had to get my tight ring cut off and I was in the area and called all these jewelers who were unable to accommodate my need. I called Bella Rosa and they accommodated me right away. Alan was professional and thoughtful when cutting the ring off. He did not give up when it was difficult to cut. I cannot thank him enough! I highly recommend this jeweler!

The folks at Bella Rosa Galleries are nothing short of amazing!My fiancé proposed with a handmade Art Deco style engagement ring and let me tell you… the design and the craftsmanship had me speechless (and I’m a talker). The ring was delicate, classy, timeless, and the diamond looks like it’s floating on a thin thin band. And thanks to the low setting, it snags on nothing!When I started to shop for a wedding band that wasn’t just a crown or a “hump” over the main diamond, I knew I had to go back to the expert and did they deliver!!I researched online and found two designs I liked, drew it on a post it note, and BAM!! Joe and Greg created pure custom magic!! The bands are BEAUTIFUL, epically timeless, one of a kind, and compliment the engagement sparkler so so so SO well that I can wear one or all of them together!There was no crown or "hump" when viewed from the top to distract from the main diamond. There was no spacing between the bands so everything stacks nicely and closely together. Like I said, magic.Joe and Greg are simply the best. They were so patient in working with me and I am as high maintenance and PITA as they come. They really understood and captured my vision to turn the custom pieces around quickly. I can't wait to find another reason to go back and create more custom pieces!!

The folks at Bella Rosa Galleries are simply the best! My fiancé proposed with a handmade Art Deco style platinum engagement ring and it is nothing short of G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S. The diamond, the design, the craftsmanship to make the diamond look like it's floating, the low setting (so it snags on nothing).... It is classy. It is timeless. It's just.... I'm speechless every time I look at it. When my ring to be sized with the sides smoothed out, both Joe and Maria made sure the work was done quickly so I won't be without my ring for too long. When I inquired about the history of the ring, they took the time to get back to me and explain everything. The store also has other amazing pieces and I can't wait to visit again and add to my collection!

These guys were great, very professional and helpful. Beautiful jewelry throughout the store. The cut a ring off for me, free of charge...and it was a difficult ring to cut off. I'll definitely be back. I'd highly recommend Bella Rosa Galleries to anyone looking for jewelry.

I had a problem with my estate pieces belonging to my grandmother and mother which are very dear for me. I turned to Bella Rosa Galleries for Repair three items. I went in other stores before coming to Bella Rosa, but they didn't have a jeweler who would be able to fix the old earrings and heckles. Bella Rosa has a jeweler on premises. They had no problem repairing my old pieces because they use new, traditional and old technics. I also would like to mention Bella Rosa excellent plus customer service. I strongly recommend if somebody needs a professional and honest jeweler to to Bella Rosa and you wouldn't regret it.
