    Absolutely transformative experience in many ways. My wonderful friend recommended Joint Venture for my late mother's jewelry. They were so supportive and kind evaluating each of the pieces for resale. They sold several and we used the credit to design a 10th wedding anniversary band for me using diamonds from one of my mother's vintage pins. There were several rubies on the pin which Donna designed into a gorgeous necklace as well. This felt like an amazing way to transform a tough time into beauty. Thank you so much, Joint Venture Jewelry! We'll be back!

    I’ve worked with Joint Venture for over 10 years. My experience with Donna and Lee has been nothing but professional, helpful and pleasant. They continue to give great advice on how I can sell my pieces with what’s best for me in mind and what’s fair. I’m grateful to work with two people whose expertise I trust and value. Plus, they are just really nice folks!!!

    While visiting family in the area (we live in NYC) we came across Joint Venture Jewelry in a Google search. We were happy to find Donna to be warm, personable and helpful when it came to getting my ideal engagement ring. We wanted something unique, and I thought if we got anything it would be some cool vintage estate piece. We told Donna what we were into and she helped us to create a custom ring that seriously is just too perfect! I highly recommend them.

    Love my new watch made just for me that I got at Joint Venture Jewelry store as an anniversary gift from my husband. I was in there recently having a ring sized ( they do repairs and custom work too) and added the watch to my wish list that they maintain. My husband was able to go in and know exactly what I wanted. I always love the customer service we get when we go in there. Highly recommend them for all your jewelry needs especially if you like vintage pieces. I never go in without finding something I like.

    For me, a French cut sapphire and diamond band was love at first sight. An installment plan allowed it to be forever mine. Working through the process to have it paid in full was a pleasure. Donna is now my go-to person for anything jewelery. Thank you for your great care, Donna. I'll absolutely be back.

    Donna was awesome to work with. I was trying to recreate (to some degree) a ring that was lost. She was super patient and had great suggestions on parts of the project that I wasn’t sure what to do about. My wife loves what we came up with. Thanks!

    Great Service! I took in a bracelet that I have have worn every day for over 20 years to repair a break. Joint Venture repaired it quicker than they originally quoted and the repair was flawless. They also cleaned it and it looks like I just purchased it. Super impressed with their quality of work! I will be back!

    I recently came back to Joint Venture to get my wedding set resized and plated. Both rings could not look better! Amazing job as usual. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my antique, family pieces and I’m grateful for their expertise. Thank you for being our family jeweler and always taking care of us! Highly recommend for vintage, one of a kind pieces.

    Had a great experience at Joint Venture. Donna and team created a custom ring to match one that my father gave me 20+ years ago.

    Run, don’t walk! I most recently collaborated with Donna to recycle some of my older jewelry into custom bracelets and they are Perfect!! From sketches to multiple renderings she was in tune with the details I wanted all while providing fantastic advice based on their years of experience. I’m not a creative person by nature and to have my vision realized is somewhat remarkable. I’ve also purchased items from them over the years. You can’t go wrong, Donna and the team at Joint Venture are gems - literally!!

  • 5/5 Ron L. 6 months ago on Google
    Just fyi, I’m using my husbands Google account. I found Joint Venture in IG. Donna was so helpful n creating exactly what I wanted. I told her how much this ring meant me and she made it her mission to get me exactly what I wanted. She stayed in contact with me every step of the way. The ring is perfect and I simply can’t say enough about their customer service.

  • 5/5 Eric L. 5 months ago on Google
    We always have a great experience at Join Venture. Their service, attention to detail, enthusiasm, and value are unmatched; and the prices are very reasonable. We highly recommend them for estate jewelry of all eras and style, as well as for appraisals.

  • 5/5 Chris F. 1 year ago on Google
    Donna and Lee are fantastic. My fiancé and I brought in my.grandfather’s ring and they helped us redesign it into something that mixed my style with the sentiment of my grandfather’s ring. They did such an amazing job we bought my fiancé’s band there as well. They will give you sound advice and make sure you are completely happy with your purchase. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Jessica C. 7 months ago on Google
    Dawna and her husband were very kind and friendly and handled my moms wedding band with great care. She actually talked me into resizing it for myself and I’m so glad. Every time I look at my new ring it reminds me of my mom 🥰❤️

  • 5/5 Jennifer A. 7 months ago on Google
    Joint Venture made my fiancé and I feel comfortable as soon as we walked in the door! They respected our budget and immediately understood my taste when I described what I was looking for. They pulled a beautifully curated selection of vintage rings to choose from and were extremely educational, transparent, and knowledgeable. The family at Joint Venture are delightful to work with and truly experts in their field, and their selection of vintage rings at a variety of price points is unmatched in the area. They were also helpful with resizing and assisting with hypoallergenic options.

  • 5/5 Frankie B. 1 year ago on Google
    Donna and Lee welcomed us to their business and made us feel very comfortable without any pressure or rush. The first day we went to get a ring resized and Lee recommended we add small balls to the inside of the ring as an alternative. Not only did this work without having to cut the ring, it was cheaper as well. He could have easily recommended the more expensive option but instead recommend what was right for us, the customer. When we picked up the ring, Donna informed us about all of the options to purchase our wedding bands without any pressure. She was extremely informative and made us feel like we made the right choice when we found Joint Venture Jewelry. We will be coming back for our rings and I highly recommend this locally owned, family business to anyone in the area. Thank you!

    I’ve been a customer at Joint Venture for years. I was introduced to Donna and Lee by one of my college friends and now I stop at Joint Venture almost every time I’m in North Carolina. They provide excellent customer service. I fully trust their opinion and Donna knows me well enough to pull all the right pieces for me to try. Over the years I’ve bought everything from everyday staples (for example, a pair of aquamarine earrings I wear regularly) to unusual earrings and necklaces as well as converted brooches to pendants which are now quite practical. On my last trip, I came home with a stunning pair of sapphire and diamond earrings. I appreciate their expertise and will surely be back sometime this year!

  • 5/5 Jason H. 11 months ago on Google
    A wonderful local business!!! I can’t recommend enough! I first walked into their store over 18 years ago to buy my wife’s engagement ring. Ever since then, Joint Venture has been my go-to place to shop for my wife. Several anniversaries and birthdays later, I’m still going back. Donna and Lee (and their family) have always provided a warm, helpful and welcoming experience. They always have a great selection and are never pressuring. If you’re in the market for something special for your loved one, do yourself a favor and check out their wonderful store that has been a long standing fixture in Cary. You won’t regret it!!

  • 5/5 Jamesina H. 4 months ago on Google
    Donna was so kind and considerate with me every step of the joint venture process. I have enjoyed Donna’s professionalism and wisdom regarding the jewelry I purchased and the jewelry I placed on consignment. A win win interaction in every regard!

  • 5/5 Cameron S. 1 year ago on Google
    The team here made the experience a dream. All I knew was I wanted to find the perfect ring. They walked me through everything else - design, materials, costs, insurance, common pitfalls, appraisal, style, and tips all along the way. They were truly invested in my success and as excited as I was the whole time. They made me much more confident in what I was doing, that she would love it, and even how I would deliver it. At no point did I feel pressured, up sold, ignored, or felt any condescending tones. Perhaps some people are sensitive or insecure and don't want to be told directly what is truth. Unfortunately they will be taken advantage of somewhere else. The negative reviews seem very emotionally based and usually a response to hard-to-swallow pills. My take is they are an honest, hard working, family owned business doing amazing work. This business should be on your list if you are dealing with anything fine-jewelry or gem stones. Full disclosure - my budget to build a ring was 4k. They were less than or equal to other fine jewelers in the area.

  • 5/5 James C. 1 year ago on Google
    Donna and Jen were incredibly helpful in securing the perfect ring for my fiancée. They worked with her to find something that she liked, listening to her when she described what she was looking for and never pushing anything on her that didn’t match what she wanted. Everything went smoothly and I’m looking forward to coming back to look for wedding bands when the time comes!

  • 5/5 Mitchell W. 2 years ago on Google
    HI, my name is Roxie and I have had the pleasure of shopping with Joint Venture for at least 10 years. I find the jewelry unique, one of a kind pieces and always Donna has been so positive and willing to do anything to help. With so many choices out there, Joint Venture is the only place to get the service and care that you need for finding that just right piece, or even designing that perfect piece. I know I'll be back and even my husband loves the attention.

  • 5/5 Chris W. 1 year ago on Google
    In the interest of full transparency, I should disclose that the owners of Joint Venture Jewelry are dear friends of mine. When it was time to buy an engagement ring, there was no one else I’d trust more to guide me through that nerve-racking once-in-a-lifetime process. They asked me all the important questions and listened closely to understand my needs. They encouraged me to take my time as I considered all the options. They offered their honest advice, which included not overspending on a ring. In the end, they crafted the perfect engagement ring (see pics) for my soon-to-be fiance'. They also created beautiful matching necklaces for my future step-daughters. I could easily see how one might instinctively think that I got a great deal and stellar service because of my relationship with the owners. The truth is they had my business no matter what - they didn't have to work for it. As I watched their interactions with other customers in their store - people whose business they actually had to earn - I realized that they treat every customer with the same care and attention they'd give a dear friend.

    Donna helped find the perfect wedding band for me! I really appreciated her ability to work within my budget and attention to detail. They helped resolve some issues I had with sizing a different ring as well

  • 5/5 Audrey W. 1 year ago on Google
    Thank you so much Donna and Lee. I was going through my jewelry box and found my original engagement ring, which had just been sitting there for years. I brought it in to Joint Venture and Donna and Lee made it into a beautiful solitaire necklace that is near and dear to my heart. It is absolutely beautiful. Thank you Donna and Lee.

  • 5/5 Derek B. 1 year ago on Google
    The team at Joint venture jewelry is very friendly and professional. My wife loves the white diamond crown necklace I got her for her birthday…she wears it for every Chiefs football game! Jen goes over the top to provide the BEST customer service!!!! I will definitely be purchasing more Jewelry from Joint Venture Jewelry!!!

  • 5/5 Ann C. 1 year ago on Google
    I went in to get my diamond stud earrings put into new posts. Donna was very knowledgeable and professional with helping me make the right decision. I am very happy with how the earrings turned out!

  • 5/5 Andrea L. 2 years ago on Google
    The minute you walk into Joint Venture, you know you’re in a special place. There are no rows of overpriced bling! They focus on you, what you want, and they work extra hard to keep it within your budget. They are professional and nice, and certainly knowledgeable. Highly recommend you start here on your jewelry journey!

  • 5/5 Nancy P. 1 year ago on Google
    We had recently moved to North Carolina from Pennsylvania but needed to store our belongings in a pod for several months. After emptying the pod, I noticed that something had fallen on my dresser and crushed my Mother's ring which I had for the past 14 years. Donna was so sweet on the phone and told me that they could fix it and all I needed to do was bring it in. When I arrived, they greeted me kindly and gave me a very fair estimate for servicing my ring by taking out the dent, resizing it, and making the gold smooth again. When I picked my ring up, it looked exactly like the day I bought it!! Thank you, Joint Venture!!!

  • 5/5 Kris H. 1 year ago on Google
    My husband and I went in to look at vintage/unconventional rings to replace our department-store wedding rings. Donna took the time to find out what we were interested in and what we did not want and then presented us with a range of rings to review. We each found a unique ring that we are sure not to see duplicated, and the prices were quite reasonable. We highly recommend Donna and Joint Venture Jewelry!

  • 5/5 Carley C. 2 years ago on Google
    Saw Joint Venture in Instagram and loved their selection of vintage pieces. Came into the store and decided to have a custom ring made with my original engagement ring stone. Donna was a pleasure to work with and my ring is beautiful!

  • 5/5 Jessica K. 2 years ago on Google
    We had an excellent experience here. If you want truly unique jewelry, this is the place! They really worked with us and created exactly what we wanted. We can’t wait to reveal our rings on the big day!

  • 5/5 Elizabeth B. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is amazing. The individual time and attention that was given each time I've been here has been top notch. The pieces are one of a kind too. You have to go here!

  • 5/5 Daniel M. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the most memorable family experience for us s is visiting this store. We did not expect all the rings we wanted to magically fit us! And we figured out after leaving that they knocked off more from the prices than we realized!

  • 5/5 Sara T. 2 years ago on Google
    This special shop in Cary is a great find! Beautiful and unique pieces at great prices is their specialty. Beyond excellent service- a pleasure to do business with- Honest and knowledgeable assistance makes Joint Venture THE place to find your first or next unique piece! (LOVE my emeralds😊)

  • 5/5 dan h. 2 years ago on Google
    Put a family diamond ring on consignment. Within a couple of weeks a couple chose the diamond for their engagement ring. I’m happy and they’re happy! I got a fair price and they got a good deal and a great diamond! Highly recommend this jeweler.

  • 5/5 Jorden B. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing family run jewelry store that helped me pick out my fiancé’s engagement ring! I had no idea what I was doing and they were there every step of the way. They even offered to custom make a ring if I didn’t see something I liked!
