Got an appraisal on an engagement wedding set. Howard was great to work with. Very friendly, honest and very knowledgeable. He walked us through the entire process and explained everything clearly about the set. He gave us some great ideas too. I highly recommend Howard. I will definitely use him in the future and spread the word about him.

I met Howard L. Traxler today at HLM Diamond Connection in Frisco, Texas. Howard is a fantastic gemologist and provided excellent service. I would highly recommend that you utilize his services. He is very professional and knowledgeable.

Howard is a gem of a human being.
I came in with what was allegedly sold to me as a natural Zultanite for a very affordable price.
This was my first time authenticating a gemstone and was worried about being misled or misinformed (so I had prepped and researched before going in).
Howard is incredibly knowledgeable and certified beyond - he informed me about the processes step-by-step and was incredibly patient. He is incredibly honest and direct + with a good sense of humor.
He earnestly cares about his clients and wants everyone to get a fair price on any lab or natural diamond. Will definitely be coming back soon already any sort of custom work appraisal or any of my gemstone needs with Howard!

What a lovely experience! Howard is kind, professional and knowledgeable in his appraisal process. He is fair in cost and easy to schedule with, meeting me same-day. I was able to stay and receive the appraisal report immediately. I look forward to continuing to work with Howard in the future!

I went in to see Howard to have my sapphire checked after a bad experience with the jeweler who designed it.
He graciously took a look and put my worries to ease, while also just being a respectful, lovely human.
I wish I had come to him first, and will now only be coming to him, and recommending him from now on.

My experience with Mr. Traxler was amazing! He walked me through every step from understanding the type of ring my fiancé wanted to customizing it to ensuring it was delivered securely. He took the time to learn about me and helped educate me on the various types of diamonds (i.e. cut, clarity, carat, etc.) instead of just looking for a quick sale. I felt comfortable and confident throughout the whole process thanks to Mr. Traxler’s expertise, professionalism, responsiveness, and personable approach. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! It doesn’t matter if you’re able to physically go into his store or live 1000 miles away - I highly recommend Mr. Traxler and Frisco Engagement Rings!!

Howard is absolutely amazing to work with! He is knowledgeable and thorough. I needed an appraisal and an evaluation of some items. He answered all my questions and really listened to me. Howard is now our jeweler for life!
Highly Recommend!
