    I worked with Ken to get a custom ring made. He was very helpful throughout the whole process to get the perfect engagement ring made. I tried other places around the New Orleans area but none were up to the same standards as Friend & Co. I highly recommend.

    Friend and Company is an amazing jewelry experience. I have purchased multiple ,beautifully crafted pieces including rings, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and pendants. Mr. Friend and staff are great to work with, they provide a personal experience tailored to your needs. They work within your budget to find you the best value. I have done business with them for over 25 yrs. and highly recommend them. It is worth the drive to New Orleans for a personal and unique experience.

    Ken and his team produced an amazing product for the modification of my wife's wedding ring. I totally trusted them with my precious valuables and they provided an awesome customer experience.

    Their repairs are highly professional, efficient and done on time. There's a good range of unusual but classic jewelry on display, as well as timepieces.

    Ken and his team are first class and I highly recommend them. I couldn’t imagine going through the wedding ring process without them.

    I have been a customer for more than 20 years. The exquisite pieces and customer service are second to none. If you have any jewelry needs, give them a call. You won’t be disappointed.

    I had been shopping around for a diamond bracelet for a while and my sister recommended I visit Friend & Co. when I came to visit New Orleans. I cannot say enough good things about my experience. Selection was magnificent. I was immediately shown 10+ different bracelets so I could find what type I liked and could afford. They pulled out everything from 2 carat up to 12 carat, a variety of cuts, and diamonds of different qualities. I never felt pressured to go to a higher priced item. Highly recommend.

    Superior service. Danny Nuccio and Ken Friend are knowledgeable, accessible, and earned my trust and dedication as a customer. I shopped online, regionally, and nationally and I found exactly what I wanted right here at Friend and Company and now I won’t turn anywhere else for my future jewelry purchases. Danny took the time to understand what my wife and I wanted and identified, built, and delivered to us exactly what we asked him for within our budget. And Ken came in on his day off for me to pick up the product. I can’t ask for anything more in a jeweler.

    Working with Ken has been amazing. He taught me everything I needed to know about diamonds and did an excellent job on my fiancé’s engagement ring! I would recommend Friend & Company Fine Jewelers to anybody.

  • 5/5 Mike M. 1 year ago on Google • 1 review
    Easily a 5 star Jewely company. Ken friend is one of my favorite people in the world... his son Davis is also one of my favorite people. Ken is a hard-working & driven man who brings the best satisfaction out of his customers. Very good jewelry company with inventory from all over the world. I highly recommend Friend & Company... I will be back soon.

    They go above and beyond at Friend and Company! Not only do they have a stunning collection of jewelry and houseware but amazing service. They came in early and beautifully giftwrapped a present because we were leaving town that day! I would highly recommend them -- they have wonderful and thoughtful gifts for any occasion! We will be returning!

  • 5/5 Rocky S. 2 years ago on Google
    I have received several pieces of beautiful jewelry for different occasions, they have accommodated me on ideas I've had on a design when a piece was not available in their showroom. I will continue to shop with them because of their beautiful jewelry, friendly and knowledgeable staff.

  • 5/5 J P. 1 year ago on Google
    Have used Friend & Company Fine Jewelers for jewelry repair a few times and am always pleased with the outcomes. The feeling inside is local, community-minded, and focused sharply on what the customer needs.

  • 5/5 Tyler W. 2 years ago on Google
    My experience at Friend & Company was amazing! They made fiancé’s wedding band and it is absolutely beautiful. Ken Friend was super helpful and made us comfortable throughout the entire process. I recommend everyone use Friend & Company!

  • 5/5 Adam L. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful jewelry and impeccable service! I wanted some pearls to give my wife for our anniversary, but I don't know much about pearls. They do! They patiently gave me a short master course in pearls and showed me some exquisite pieces in several price ranges. With their help, I got the perfect gift! I plan to buy all of my wife's jewelry here!

    I am so thrilled with their work, and as long as I live in New Orleans I won't be going to any other jeweler! I brought in my great grandmother's engagement and wedding bands that were passed down to me from my grandmother this year. They were two full ring sizes too large for me, more than 80 years old, and extremely worn as my great grandmother wore them every day for over 70 years. Another jeweler in another state had even said that they wouldn't be able to do anything with them because they were too worn down. Friend & Company was able to size them absolutely perfectly, and I am so happy. Price was also completely reasonable. They handled my family heirloom with the utmost care and I cannot recommend their services highly enough!

  • 5/5 stephen a. 3 years ago on Google
    Our experience with finding the perfect engagement ring was painless and enjoyable! We felt right at home at Friend and Company and never felt pressured into buying a ring that we didn't want! Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Joseph S. 2 years ago on Google
    Best jewelry store I've ever shopped at, bar none.

  • 5/5 Lauren C. 3 years ago on Google
    Ken Friend is a pleasure to deal with. He is very knowledgeable, extremely friendly and pleasant to do business with. He makes the xperience of buying fine jewelry fun. Most important, he is trustworthy - exactly what you want of your fine jeweler.

  • 5/5 Elizabeth E. 3 years ago on Google
    Outstanding first class jeweler! Impeccable taste, incredible curated collection, personable and discreet service at very fair prices. Highly recommended!

    Engagement ring was my first time here. Went back for the rest of the wedding set. Very helpful staff, great work, and friendly dogs.

  • 5/5 Gavin J. 2 years ago on Google
    Friend & Co is the only place I will ever go for any of my jewelry needs. Danny has gone above and beyond each time I’ve been in and has taken the time to not only explain what you’re choosing from but also show you.

  • 5/5 Susan B. 2 years ago on Google
    The attention paid to each and every customer, including a very minor one such as I, is exemplary. Recently I arrived to pick up a small repair item but the gentleman who would normally have served me was otherwise occupied. Noticing that I was left standing and waiting, the owner of the store personally and most graciously assisted me himself, an extraordinary gesture. Then I escorted a friend to the second floor tableware department where she wanted to inspect various pieces comprising a certain pattern of dinnerware. My friend made absolutely clear to the sales associate that she would not be purchasing through this store, but that she was just inspecting the pieces in order to place an order through a remote bridal registry. The sales associate could not have been more helpful and courteous if she were about to be making the largest sale of the year. The atmosphere at Friend & Co is relaxed, professional, and never supercilious. It is a real pleasure to visit and to do business with this establishment.

👍👍 I had been considering getting my septum pierced for years. Not sure what made me do so during my recent trip to NOLA but am so glad I did. Kyler did my piecing and was amazing through the whole process. The entire staff was very professional, knowledgeable and most of all took cleanliness extremely...
