“My now Fiancé (!!!) and I worked with Jimmy to design my engagement ring and it is the ring of my dreams! We had a family diamond we wanted to use and I had an idea of the setting I wanted but Jimmy made it all come to life. He took his time with us, asked so many questions we hadn’t thought of and helped us determine that a custom route was the way to go. All of his communication was prompt, professional and we could tell he genuinely wanted to create something special for us. Jimmy worked within our budget, our custom setting was affordable and the craftsmanship is out of this world. We just got engaged this weekend and I can’t stop staring at this beautiful ring. Thank you Jimmy for making my dreams come true. We will definitely be coming back for our bands. Highly recommend for a first class experience!”
“We had SO much fun gem mining. Kids (2, 7, 11) and 4 adults! We split a $100 bucket between all of us and came home with bag fulls of good sized rocks, gems, crystals. The owner was very engaged and enthusiastic and offered a wonderful experience for all of us. I HIGHLY recommend Ashville's Best Gem Mine.”

I am so thankful to have these pieces of art to wear. They are truly beautiful and meaningful.”

“A True Gem at Zales – Brandon Rice Saved My Ring and Restored My Faith
After a heartbreaking experience with my 20-year-old channel-set engagement ring being damaged during a resizing, I had nearly given up hope. Multiple repair attempts by another Zales location left it worse each time, and I was devastated. In a final attempt to salvage it, I visited the Zales Outlet in Asheville, NC, in January 2025, and that’s when I met Brandon Rice.
From the moment I walked in, Brandon treated my situation with empathy, urgency, and professionalism. He immediately recognized the issue with the setting and took it upon himself to make it right. Over the next seven months, Brandon worked tirelessly, coordinating multiple repair attempts, advocating on my behalf, and ultimately sending the ring to an external specialist when it became clear the damage was too advanced.
What truly sets Brandon apart is his unwavering dedication. He understood how much this ring meant to me and refused to settle for anything less than perfect. When repairs proved impossible, he went above and beyond, working with upper management to have my original stones removed and recast into a brand-new setting that’s identical to the original. The result? My beloved ring is as beautiful as the day I received it, and the only cost to me was a new lifetime warranty.
Brandon didn’t just fix a ring. He restored a beloved treasure and renewed my trust in Zales. His compassion, persistence, and commitment to excellence are rare and deeply appreciated. If you ever need help with your jewelry, Brandon Rice is the person you want in your corner. He is an absolute credit to Zales and a shining example of what true customer service looks like.
Thank you, Brandon. You are a rock star in every sense of the word.”

“Was looking for a new place to buy some clothes and decided to stop in. Very glad that I did! The staff was extremely nice and helpful. The shop was extremely clean and well organized. Not so much that it overwhelms you but enough to give you a decent selection. Tried on a few items and loved all of them which never happens for me. Normally I’ll try on 8 things and like one or none of them. Everything was good quality and very reasonably priced. Will definitely be returning in the future”
