Doyle & Doyle Jewelry Review

You would think that beautiful diamond rings would be abundant in New York...not the case if you're looking for something with character and one-of-a-kindness.  When my fiance and I started looking for rings last year, we saw a lot of generic rings that didn't speak to us.  Everyone said to try the diamond district, so we did...and realized that the same people who tell you to go there are the same people who tell you that everyone MUST visit Vegas.  It's just not true and I don't know why that myth is propelled.

I started to think that I wasn't going to fall in love with any rings and I would just have to accept that.  But one trip to Doyle and Doyle rejuvenated my faith in jewelry.  I loved their well-curated selection of estate rings (although they also have non-estate jewelry, too).  The ring we fell in love with at Doyle and Doyle is from the 1930's with deco styling.  We picked out a stone with an Old European Cut, which gave the ring further charm...perfection!

The one thing I'd disagree with other reviews here is that the employees here are friendly.  They're certainly not mean, but they're not trying to be your friend...I'd describe them all as competent, professional, informed, patient and stylish.
