I was looking for a custom design for an engagement ring. I visited about 3 recommended jewellers before visiting Crest Jewellers. The difference was immediately noticed. I stopped by without an appointment and was graciously welcomed in as Soraya was just finishing up with another person. While i waited, I... read more looked around until Soraya was free. In previous experiences, I felt overwhelmed and frankly out of place. Once Soraya and I stated talking I was put at ease with her disarming and down-to-earth demeanor.

Soraya was 100% correct and the finished product is fantastic. I really couldn't have hoped for a better designed ring for my fiancé and I couldn't have had a better person then Soraya to help. If you're looking for a jeweller with a personal touch, no-pressure sales, integrity, and beautiful stones then look no further than Crest Jewellers. Just make an appointment first ;)

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. When my husband and... read more I were getting our wedding rings nearly 15 years ago, we went to Hanif.
