Choosing the Perfect Stone for Your Engagement Ring

Not sure why they don't have more reviews because Hanif definitely deserves more!

I wasn't sure what to expect coming into... read more Crest but it exceeded my expectations and I loved my experience. What Crest lacks in marketing they make up for in service and quality. I prefer it that way since the owner Hanif and his daughter are able to put more focus into the product. Hanif saw us just before the store opened. He personally educated us on the diamonds and all the 4Cs and gave us a brief summary of his family business. He has this very cool proprietary system set up where he uses magnets to help you find your perfect ring combination. It was so much fun and very useful, because it turned out that what I want from just pictures is very different from what looked good on me! So that was a huge plus. It takes about a month from design to finish so I'm excited to see what the final look is.

We had our rings made at Crest Jewellers in Vancouver, and the experience was nothing short of amazing.

I am not a person who wears a lot of jewelry. And pieces I wear daily have to mean something to me. For well over a decade, I have gone to Hanif at Crest Jewellers to help create a small collection of pieces that I love.
