My (now husband) Rian and I worked with Erich to design a custom shadow wedding band for my vintage heirloom 1973 engagement ring made by my grandfather, using some sapphires and diamonds I had in another ring I had inherited from him. In addition to the band coming out even more perfect than I had imagined, the experience was absolutely stellar. Coming from a family of jewelers, I had extremely high expectations that were met and surpassed at every point! Erich showed such care and curiosity about our very precious pieces and the stories behind them, and designed a ring that perfectly matches my vintage piece. Erich also cleaned, polished, and and inspected both my engagement ring and my husband's vintage band so that everything looked brand new on our wedding day. In my family, it's important to have a jeweler that you can return to time and time again to keep your pieces in top shape and I know we have found that with Green Lake! We look forward to working with them for years to come!!

We bought my husband's wedding ring here and we are so grateful for the amazing service we got from our ring designer, Vinh. He walked us through all kinds of different styles, talked us through all kinds of ways to design the ring we envisioned, and helped us stick within our price range throughout the process. The team was so helpful and respectful at every visit - including serving us coffee :) They also let us come in a few days before our wedding to polish my husband's ring and my engagement and wedding rings, even though we didn't purchase mine through them. We're so happy with the beautiful ring they designed, thank you!

We had a terrific experience custom designing my rings drum the very start and we've been back several times to purchase gifts for others. Definitely the best jewelry store in Seattle!

Easy process, great service. No pressure to buy and answered all questions and concerns. Highly recommended!!!

Green Lake Jewelry Works have a beautiful show room and lovely pieces. We had a very enjoyable appointment trying on rings, and Vinh was very responsive to our preferences and made great suggestions. I ended up designing my own piece that turned out beautifully, but felt like I could have happily purchased something in the store on the day of. The design process was easy and fun, and we’re so happy with how it turned out.

If you have a vision, they can make it happen.

Was able to get an appraisal in one day, thankfully they appraiser had time. They also cleaned up our pieces. Thanks guys

We have loved the experience at Green Lake Jewelry works and more importantly, we LOVE their designs. He chose one of their designs and an already made ring and then customized the center stone to create something truly unique for me. They’ve been great at helping us with sizing afterwards and figuring out other things for other jewelry projects too.

We had a phenomenal experience at Green Lake Jewelry Works, and it was largely due to Christine, the designer we worked with. If you want an engagement ring and the best customer service imaginable, find Christine IMMEDIATELY!

We stopped by on a whim after having mediocre experiences at other jewelers. Christine greeted us cheerfully and spent the next hour and a half enthusiastically showing us design ideas and stones. We never felt pressured at all, and instead felt like we were in the company of someone who was just so excited to share. Christine made the whole experience so incredibly fun, and the ring is more perfect than we could have imagined.

The ring design process takes about 6-8 weeks from start to finish, and you get to be part of the whole journey - from the initial sketches to a wax model to the finished product, you get to see your dream ring come to life.

Oh, and did I mention that they can make literally any ring you want? From a simple solitaire to a much more complex design, the sky is the limit here.

Green Lake Jewelry Works (but especially Christine) gets 10 stars from us!

My husband worked with Ellen to design my engagement ring, and we went back to both design our wedding bands. We're so pleased with them - I cannot recommend Green Lake enough. We did most of the process from Georgia, and I can't believe how seamless everything was! If you're looking for a truly original engagement ring or wedding band, look no further than Green Lake.
