    Gemsmith came highly recommended and they absolutely exceeded our expectations. Ketti is fantastic and extremely knowledgeable about all facets of custom jewelry and jewelry repair. She made us feel very comfortable and we can’t wait to see what she designs for my wife’s wedding/engagement ring combination. We know we are in great hands. Thank you! Update…..The ring is complete and we are super impressed. It’s so beautiful and gets complimented all the time! We could not be happier with how it came out. It’s gorgeous! Thank you so much!

    I walked in without knowing I needed an appointment and they were kind enough to take me anyway! Kelley, Joelle, and Janice were all super helpful and knowledgeable with resizing my ring. They took the time to make sure it was perfect. Highly recommend to anyone in the area and I will come back here for all my jeweler needs!

    I have driven past this store countless times over the years but have never stopped in before. Yesterday, I was asked by a loved one to find a specific type of jewelry for somebody else. I was working with a short timeframe so I decided to try Gemsmith since I drive by it so often. When I walked in the friendly ladies at the shop asked if I needed help. I explained my situation and what I was looking for. Not only did they know what I was looking for, but they knew right where to find it in the store. It was the perfect piece! Not only was I relieved that it was even more beautiful than what I was expecting, but I was even more surprised at the price! The piece, as fine quality as it was, was shockingly affordable. The sweet women in the store offered to gift wrap it and they packaged it so much better than I could have done. Their service, pricing, and surprising collection will make me a customer for life. My only regret is that I didn’t start shopping there sooner.

    My husband Scott and I have been satisfied customers for almost 30 years. Because trust is a crucial component of selecting a jeweler, our family and friends now come to Gemsmith not only for repairs, but also for beautiful artisan jewelry created by Ketti, as well as lovely estate pieces. Our son, a young child when we first discovered Gemsmith, purchased his fiancée’s engagement ring as well as wedding band here. Ketti and her family are warm, caring, community-centered people. The staff are knowledgeable and professional. If you’re looking for a business that will earn your respect and trust, look no further. We certainly won’t!

    After my husband passed away I wanted to have my engagement ring and wedding band reset into one ring. I met with Ketti several times and we came up with a design for the new ring. The entire process was professional and pleasant. Ketti listened to my preferences and the end result exceeded my expectations. I would recommend Ketti at Gemsmith to anyone who is looking for quality jewelry.

    I recently had Ketti make/remake 2 very important pieces of jewelry for me. We consulted online first and she listened to me and asked several pointed questions that helped lead to the perfect designs for me and my lifestyle. Ketti will do whatever you want - from extravagant designs to simple creations and everything in between. She offers her expertise and ideas, but in the end, lets you make the call. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her. BTW, her store is beautiful and everything in there is really spectacular. Ketti is the ultimate 'jewelry whisperer'!

    Joelle and her team are very courteous and professional. Excellent variety of high-quality gems and beautiful jewelry. Always very helpful and sincere. If you are looking to buy new jewelry or have something repaired, Gemsmith Jewelry store is great go to jewelry store in Toms River.

    A few months ago I made the decision to have my rings cut off due to my swollen fingers from arthritis and some weight gain. I was sad worried my wedding ring was gonna be ruined. But knew I had to do it. I went to Gemsmith and they were amazing. Painlessly cut my ring off and advised me to wait a few months. I went back a few months later they resized me and repaired my ring to perfection. I cannot express how happy I am with the customer service. Also, the talented staff who fixed my ring. I feel like a new bride!! Highly recommend! Also, the gorgeous jewelry 😍 selection was bountiful.

    Without going into long and boring details, I needed my wedding band and engagement ring resized. Because of how the bands were made it was not a simple resize and it required creative work from the jeweler on site. She was able to size my rings up without destroying the beauty and design of my rings. I was very impressed? The best part was that it didn't cost a fortune! I was quoted double the price at another jewelry store. I will be coming back to Gemsmith for any needed future repairs!

    I've had amazing experiences every time visiting Gemsmith whether it be buying beautiful one of a kind pieces or estate jewelry, having my personal pieces redesigned or taking advantage of their appraisal services. Ketti and her staff take great pride in providing the absolute best customer service to everyone who walks through the door. It's clear why Gemsmith has been a trusted jeweler in Ocean County for decades.

    My experience at Gemsmith was exceptional from the moment I stepped in. Ketti listened to me and offered her advice and suggestions. She was thorough in drawing up a rough sketch of my ring to help me visualize it. I don’t have enough great things to say about my experience and my perfect ring! Thank you so much Ketti and Gemsmith!!

    My deceased husband, Charlie, introduced me to Ketti and her lovely jewelry. He surprised me many times with beautiful creations by Ketti. I love all of my special pieces of jewelry. Ketti is a professional who goes out of her way to please her customers. Her staff is courteous and helpful.

    Was surprised to have such a strange experience here the other day. Fiancee and I stopped here first looking for our wedding bands, and the woman working was not very welcoming and almost every time she spoke it came off as very condescending. She made me very anxious. I'm not a huge jewelery person so I don't know a lot about styles, and she made me feel like I had no idea what I was talking about and wasn't very helpful at all. The selection was very small (from what she showed) and very overpriced. We stayed for maybe 10 minutes before moving onto our next location where I found the most beautiful band that was appropriately priced. They have gorgeous jewelry, but I wouldn't suggest going here for wedding bands to anyone.

    More than just a jewelry store. Custom design service and top notch repair all under one roof. The staff treats you like family, takes the time to fully understand your needs, and deliver the best option for your budget. After one visit you will not want to go anywhere else.

    The Gemsmith team is amazing! They truly care about helping you find the perfect piece of beautiful jewelry! I have purchased several pieces and the customer sevice is top notch! You must check out Keti’s unique designs! Stunning!!

  • 5/5 Pegeen F. 2 years ago on Google
    Ketti is the consummate professional, an artistic visionary. I had a very large blue topaz engagement ring that I was afraid to wear. The pronged setting did not seem sufficient to hold the stone and its weight caused the ring to always turn on my finger. Ketti’s redesign solved all my problems.The comfortable, contemporary wide band now has a square base, the stone encased in a beautifully constructed bezel of small leaves and butterflies. I feel Ketti completely captured by 1960’s essence, my deep connection to nature and life’s transformational journey. Ketti is a gem, as is her staff. I highly recommend!!! Pegeen, Toms River NJ

    I took my ring to Gemsmith after taking it to a couple national jewelry companies. They were clueless as to how to fix my ring which had a broken band. Friend referred me to Gemsmith, so I took it there and the owner and Joelle looked at it and said they could fix it. A week later I picked it up and wow!! The ring looked as good or better than when I bought it 30 plus years ago! Plus they were about half the price of the companies who couldn't fix it. Need a great jeweler for new or repaired jewelry? Take it to Gemsmith, you'll be very happy!!

    I found Ketti while searching for someone to design a ring for me. My mom gave me her engagement ring and I was excited to put the stone into something unusual and unique. As soon as I went to Gemsmith I knew this was the place to be. Ketti spent a great deal of time with me designing the ring and utilized not only the stone but additional stones from a band I already owned. My ring is beautiful and exceeded my expectations. She also designed a necklace for me using stones I already had. It is beautiful as well. The store also has amazing ready made pieces, all original and all fabulous. I HIGHLY recommend Ketti and Gemsmith for all of your jewelry needs. Lovely people, high quality and workmanship and just an all around pleasure to work with.

    I went to Ketti with a specific request for a bracelet that was coming from a $10 red string elephants & evil eyes from NYC. The bracelet string was starting to thin & I really loved it, so I decided to make an appointment with Ketti to see if what I wanted was even doable. Ketti & I sat down. I nervously explained what I was looking for & Ketti with a big smile, said I think we can make this happen. My nervousness subsided & a big smile came across my face that implied, Really? Ketti grabbed a pencil & paper & began to work her magic. Before I knew it, Ketti had a rough draft drawn up & I was putting a deposit down. As Ketti made progress, she emailed me to show me the updates & from there we were able to make changes & tweak things. I’m not one of those people who is constantly checking in to see how things are going. I feel it’s best to let an artist work & let them check in with u when they’re ready. Ketti emailed me a few weeks later to let me know the bracelet was done & I couldn’t be happier. Ketti really listens to you & will straight up tell you if it’ll work or not, but she will also give u different ideas on how it could work if what you’re looking for isn’t exactly possible with jewelry. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    I dont even know where to begin with the amazing experiences we have had with Ketti over at Gemsmith. From the moment we walked in & met her we knew we were in the right place for our engagement ring & wedding bands. The past 18 months have been a pleasure getting to know her as she has created our beautiful rings. Our dream rings! I work in sales & DAILY people stop me to look at my beautiful ring! She is effortlessly good at what she does! Super fair & we trusted her right away. Small world, I find out months later that my grandmother & Aunt have been coming to her for years. My fiance has also bought some other beautiful pieces from her store. This is the place to go for beautiful, unique, handmade, jewelry...fair prices & a great experience every time!

    There aren’t enough wonderful things we could say about Ketti and her staff but here it goes. Ketti first met my fiancé and provided her expertise on what he mentioned I was looking for in an engagement ring. They made an appointment for us both to come in to size my finger along with finding out more in detail on what style of setting I wanted. She took the time to explain and educated us both on how diamonds are graded, clarity, brilliance, inclusions etc. From that appointment on she worked with me personally on the setting. What I admired most about Ketti was her professionalism and how she wasn’t afraid to tell me if there was anything that would jeopardize protecting our forever investment. They are a full service jeweler which includes integrity and quality over quantity hands down. She took my vision and made it my reality. To be completely honest when my fiancé proposed and showed me the ring it completely exceeded my expectations. I would recommend anyone to Ketti and the Gemsmith team for all your jewelry needs trust me you won’t regret it! ~The future Mrs. Romano 😊

    The ladies at the counter are always excellent observers of what your personal needs are regarding your sentimental jewelry. We trust only them with our expensive gold and diamonds.

  • 5/5 Gable & C. 2 years ago on Google
    Designed my wedding set from 3 generations of heirloom jewelry. The entire process was incredible. I knew exactly what I wanted in terms of design and settings and Ketti reflected my vision perfectly. We couldn’t be happier with how the set turned out.

  • 5/5 Shawn B. 2 years ago on Google
    Ketti is an amazing artist! She made a custom opal pendant for me as a commemoration of my graduation from law school. She worked with me from the raw stone, through a drawing, to a render, and then the final product. The finished product is beautiful, and it had an excellent presentation upon delivery. I highly recommend her work for any heirloom piece you would like to craft.

    Ketti worked with my husband to not only create the most beautiful engagement ring but also an absolutely stunning wedding band. Ketti is knowledge, easy going and her work is flawless. Each time we’ve gone in everyone is the store is so friendly and have no issue cleaning/ inspecting my rings to make sure we’re good to go. I would highly recommend Ketti and her staff to anyone looking for beautiful jewelry!
