Reviews

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.

So happy with this place! One of my best friend’s mother, who’s lived here all her life – and she just turned 94, still sharp as a tack – recommended them to me. Morgan Griswold, with whom I worked with to evaluate whether certain items were worthy of repair, appraisals, whatever, is very savvy and cordial. Looks young, but is quite experienced in the business. I would imagine that in a rather small town, now much larger than when I went to high school here in the ’60’s, reputation is key – and that has allowed this place to survive and thrive.

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!

Went in hoping to find out a little more about a pocket watch that we inherited. The gentlemen was very kind to actually open it up and see if the inside of the back had any markings to tell what type of metal it was and what to properly clean it with. He was impressed the inside was impeccably clean. It had been in a display case but worked beautifully. Found out it was no metal of significant value and even gave me a polishing cloth to clean it with. Although we didn’t purchase anything their customer service was on point as if we were making a large purchase. Will consider them in the future of our jewelry needs.

If I could give ER Sawyer 6 stars I would!! Leslie Griswold is wonderful!! I don’t know full details of the engagement ring process, but Leslie and my fiance (now husband) went above and beyond choosing the perfect diamond and custom setting to surprise me with on our engagement. Leslie makes us feel like her only customers! We chose our wedding bands with her as well. She even text me a couple weeks before our wedding day (yes, she remembered our wedding day!) as a reminder to bring the bands in for cleaning and inspection prior to our destination wedding. WHAT??? Is she my maid of honor?? She’s amazing. I also text her back asking for a surprise engraving 10 days before our wedding and she got it done right away. Shop local, its SO worth it. Thank you Leslie and ER Sawyer, you are our jeweler for life and we have been recommending you to everyone!

I recently got married and I had my wedding band custom made here. Morgan helped me through every step of the way. Very easy and quick process. Morgan is Professional and very quick at answering my questions. Very pleased with the way my wedding band came out. The diamonds are so sparkly. I would definitely recommend ER Sawyers for any jewelry needs.

If I could give E.R. Sawyer infinite stars, I would! My fiance and I came here to pick out my engagement ring a while back and we could not be happier with the ring. I am a picky girl and the owners were so patient with me. When it came time to pick out the diamonds, I left the store. But they worked with my fiance to pick out the right diamonds and I could not be happier with my ring. The added bonus is that they carry Hearts on Fire diamonds and they are absolutely worth it. I can go for weeks without cleaning my ring and my Hearts on Fire diamonds still give a lot of sparkle. I will always go to E.R Sawyer for all of my jewelry needs!

Doug and his team are TOP NOTCH Jewelry professionals. I was looking for the best for my future Fiance and discovered just that, Hearts on Fire and ER Sawyer Jewelers. Hearts on Fire states that is the worlds most perfectly cut diamond. You would expect the Jeweler who carries such a high end diamond to be equally matched….And I am happy to say that, Wow! What a team of professionals. Every person on staff greets you with a smile and great customer service. Thanks ER Sawyer Jewelers, you made me look like a Rock Star to my Fiance. (Get it, Rock star!)

great assistance from Alexis…really took alot of time with us and she was generous with her vast, knowledge and best of all, fun to work with. everyone in the shop was helpful and easy to work with. high quality jeweler. i will return., it’s here for sure (which I did already know because I do love the people ;)) Nate, Doug and Ame: THANK YOU so much, you made our day! It truly was magnificent and everything you did, made it!

The fiance and I decided to check this place out based on a recommendation by some close friends who had just bought the guy’s wedding band here. since we were up that way we wanted to see what they’re talking about since at some point we need to get His band walked in one Saturday afternoon and they looked busy, good sign. the place looked nice and inviting, not too many sales people, phew. with lots of good lighting. we were greeted instantly by Judy who inquired about our visit and took us to the guys wedding band section… she was very helpful and listened to everything we had to say to help us figure out what we did/didn’t like. never at any point did we feel pressured to buy; i’m sure it helped we mentioned we hadn’t looked at wedding bands yet at all, but still it was appreciated. we learned a wealth of knowledge during our visit about the different metals, finishes, widths, etc. to wedding bands. Judy was so helpful and informative, we spent damn near an hour in there looking at bands…naturally i was curious about a band for me! so i tried some on too his/her rings were a bit more expensive then what i expected (this coming from the girl who’d only looked at Costco and ShaneCo, lol) …also HIS exact ring isn’t available to try, we have to order it so it’s a gamble to order. overall a great experience, no wonder my friends got the guys ring here!!
