There are numerous reasons why someone might choose to collaborate with a private jeweler. For some, there may be just one specific reason, while for others, there are many, each with their own distinct motives. Based on my experiences interacting with various clients I have highlighted a few key points that they have shared regarding the advantages of having a private jeweler.

As a private jeweler, I typically provide more competitive pricing because I don’t have the large overhead costs that are common in standard retail stores.

My workplace is located at 61-43 186th Street, Fresh Meadows, NY 11365. It is in a secure setting that is open to the public.

Do you make house calls ?

I do make house calls, but only for established clients and based on specific circumstances.

What hours are you available?

AS I OPERATE SOLELY ON AN APPOINTMENT BASIS, MY CLIENT SCHEDULE FLUCTUATES WEEKLY. I DO NOT MAINTAIN FIXED HOURS IN MY OFFICE BECAUSE I DO NOT ACCEPT WALK-IN CLIENTS. When I am not with a client in my office, I spend MUCH OF MY time in the diamond district networking with wholesalers and dealers, in addition to going to estate sales.

The most efficient way to communicate would be through email. This method guarantees that we both keep a documented record of our conversations regarding appointments or any other matters related to your jewelry endeavers.
