My mother gave me a pair of earrings worn by her when she came from Greece to the United States in 1949 to marry my father. I don’t know how long she wore the earrings before that but I am guessing a long time. I have had them for over 50 years myself but they were broken and worn. They have tremendous sentimental value to me. I brought them to Leslie at E.R. Sawyer Jewelers. She immediately understood how important the earrings are to me especially because I want to pass them down to my granddaughter someday. Leslie did a fantastic job on the earrings. They turned out perfect and I am so thankful to her. She is so personable and caring. I highly recommend E.R. Sawyer Jewelers!

My wife and I had our wedding rings designed 14 years ago, and Doug and the team have provided us with great service from a graduation gift for my son to my Bulova watches. The team at ER Sawyer is always friendly and helpful and they have actual goldsmiths on site 6 days a week.   I am a customer for life!

Fantastic service and knowledgeable team! I had to get my ring sized down (2 whole sizes wowza) and i needed it the SAME day! They came through, and provided great service along the way! I highly recommend this team and store!

This place lives up to the reviews, I was very impressed. Because of my work schedule I didn’t have much time to shop for my wife’s birthday, and I wanted to get her a locket engraved with a B and a picture of our son inside. I fully expected not to get it in time for her birthday, due to my lack of planning. I believe I worked with Alfredo, although I am terrible with names, and they where able to get a locket, engrave it, put the pictures in for me, help me pick out a chain, and wrap it up within one day! And it came in well under my projected budget. I was very happy with ER Sawyer, and will definitely return.

My fiance and I visited ER Sawyer to search for my engagement ring at my friend Lorelei’s recommendation. Judy worked with us to find exactly the ring styling and stone to meet our criteria – she listened to our wants and kept within our budget -my ring is beautiful and unique! We were so impressed with the professional and courteous service which Judy provided that we returned to Sawyer for both wedding bands – And again Judy assisted to find designs with which we are so pleased. When I had to get my engagement ring resized Judy assisted me to determine the correct sizing and even got the ring completed ahead of estimate. I returned to Judy for accessory pieces to complement my bridal dress. Judy introduced  me to the freshwater pearl designs from Honora. I selected a set of stack bracelets which looked beautiful with my dress! Have since purchased from Judy two Honora freshwater pearl necklaces – they pair with my stack bracelets and are a great look with any outfit. Sawyer’s is absolutely worth the drive from Castro Valley…we love the personal service which Judy provides and appreciate our time in wine country!

I had a jeweler that designed both my engagement ring and my wedding ring. My husband reached out to him to get great quality diamonds. For this I appreciate him however for maintenance, repair and service that is not exactly the type of person that is easily attainable. Today I noticed a very big problem with my wedding ring as the prong on my diamond was completely pulled back. I had 3 loose stones of my 18 stones. I looked on Yelp to find a great jeweler and found ER Sawyer with all 5 star reviews. I have been referred to another one but not only were they opened later but they did not have as many reviews as ER Sawyer. When I called it was 30 minutes before they open and I called anyways, someone picked up the phone and spoke with me about what was going on with my ring. Not only was she polite but she told me to come on in before they even opened. I came in and was impressed at the service before I even got there. Hey took my ring and put it under a magnifying glass with a large digital screen so I could see what it was that they were talking about. I didn’t have to wonder or think that they were pulling my leg on anything because I could see it. She showed me what was wrong and what they were going to do to fix it and how I can better take care of it. Since I was there and I wear all my jewelry all the time I had some loose clasps on my other jewelry. I went ahead and dropped them off as well because they have three jewelers on site they are able to get everything done for my ring and other stuff today. That’s great so I will have all my jewelry back for my 3 day weekend with my husband. I give them 5 stars and would refer them to anyone.

I came in at the last minute to see if I could get our wedding rings cleaned and polished before our ceremony (in 2 days!) and Leslie was so helpful and put a rush on our rings (no extra charge!) and when I saw them the day of the wedding, they were SO BEAUTIFUL. They all looked better than I remember when we first got them! Absolutely will come back here for any ring or jewelry services. Thank you Leslie!

It’s great to see an old school business doing well. We wanted a mokume gane ring to match mine from many years ago. As it turned out, he is the only distributor in the area, after picking it up from where I got my ring. The work is beautiful, the owner is friendly and straightforward.

My husband bought me the most beautiful vintage ring I have ever seen for Christmas this year. My son also bought his girlfriend a gorgeous promise ring at the same time. 2 lucky girls :). My husband was very impressed with service, selection and loved shopping here. We love our rings and they have made a customer for life.
