Maria de la Luz Fine Jewelry - Pasadena (CA)

5 /5 Terence Tanaka: My go to jeweler. Maria is the best of the best. Not only is her work phenomenal, but she is also a pleasure to work with. I have bought a few custom pieces from her and she patiently guides me to figure out exactly what I want. I go in with a rough idea and come out with a gorgeous unique piece of art that my girlfriend absolutely loves. It was scary trying to find a jeweler that I could trust especially when my knowledge of jewelry is limited, but when I met Maria I could tell her work is her passion. Creating pieces of art that bring joy to people is why she does it. I trust her completely. I have left family heirlooms with her and have never once had an uneasy feeling. I highly recommend Maria because of her creative designs, her beautiful work, and her passion for what she does.

5 /5 Dana Bradbury: Maria was wonderful with my daughter’s engagement ring. She and her now fiancé were able to design it together— I even got to go to one of the consultations. Simply the best!

1 /5 Your Backstory: The two projects I prepaid Maria for were not completed, clouded in lies and excuses. I lost thousands of dollars and my basic trust in people. Maria fabricated excuses, never delivered nor apologized. It was heartbreaking. Be cautious as she substituted an alloy for gold in a very expensive ring and left me dangling on a project.
