  Great Local Jeweler in Vienna

  My husband's family has been going to Achikian for years and we know why! They did a fantastic job with our wedding bands and they made the selection process so enjoyable. The staff has great suggestions, is incredibly knowledgeable, and is so accommodating letting us get exactly what we both wanted. We both love our wedding bands and also love knowing we have a local place to visit should we need anything else. They graciously cleaned my engagement ring before our wedding and we know we'll be back!

  ACHIKIAN GOLDSMITHS is the jeweler for your wedding needs because of their AFFORDABLE PRICES and OUTSTANDING customer service. I have had multiple visits for various reasons and every time I have been impressed by their FRIENDLY staff, ACCOMMODATING nature, and expertise. ACHIKIAN GOLDSMITHS made a great first impression at a Bridal Show where despite crowds of people, the vendor spent time with my fiancée and me, helping us measure our ring sizes and showing us different products. I visited the store and have been pleased with their competitive rates and craftsmanship on ring RESIZING and ring APPRAISALS. Not to mention their kind offer to clean and polish my engagement ring every time I visit! Furthermore, after hours of contemplating about which GROOM’s WEDDING BAND to buy in their store, they happily made a special order from a catalog and only asked for half down to place the order. I am a satisfied customer and will be returning for future jewelry needs at ACHIKIAN GOLDSMITHS.

  I found this jeweler at a bridal show at George Mason and after searching all of the bigger jewelry stores for a wedding band that I liked and matched my engagement ring band enough, I decided to try them out and was pleasantly surprised. They provided personal service, was a lot better value for your money than the other places and my wedding band was a near perfect match to my engagement band which I couldn't find a good match for anywhere else. Would definitely recommend them and already have to another engaged friend!

  I am IN LOVE with the wedding band that Ken made for me!! I have a vintage looking engagement ring that has a halo. Since straight wedding bands didn't look right, i knew i needed a custom wedding band to match my vintage engagement ring! We went to Jared's and other big name jewelry stores to get a quote for how much it would cost. Achikian charged about half the price and gave a millions times better service. I HIGHLY recommend them! We also ordered my fiances wedding band through them. We still need to get them engraved ( a complimentary service).

  Don't know which we appreciated most, the knowledge and expertise, or the outstanding customer service. We had a family heirloom diamond that needed to be reset, and they guided us through to the best choices because they asked all the right questions. The outcome was exquisite!
  
  Most grateful.

  My husband and I bought our wedding bands from Achikian's. They had a band that fit my engagement ring perfectly, and they helped my husband design (and then created) his ring exactly as he wanted. The prices were reasonable, and the service after the sale was excellent.
  
  It's great to be able to support a local professional instead of a large corporation. Achikian's was more flexible with service and more reasonable on price than the large chains we visited. He's was worth the quick drive to Vienna!

  Ken designed my engagement ring and my diamonds sparkle so beautifully. He came highly recommended by a long time resident of the area, and I'm glad my husband got my ring from here.

  We purchased my engagement ring and wedding band from Achikian through a family friend who is a jewelry designer and works with them.
  
  Before we got engaged, my fiance and I shopped for rings together, because he wanted something that we knew would look nice on my hand, but he also wanted some input into the design. We found something in a local store, but the quality was not very nice. So we took pictures, and sent them to our family friend. She then worked with Achikian to design my dream ring. They even allowed us to use a diamond solitaire that I received that belonged to my great grandmother.
  
  I've been engaged over a year now, with our wedding coming up very soon, and my ring still looks just as beautiful as it did the day we got engaged. The quality is amazing, and the price was just right. I can't wait to start wearing my beautiful wedding band as well. I will definitely use Achikian again for any other jewelry needs.

  We had our bands re-sized at Achikian Goldsmiths (my engagement ring was too big, his wedding ring was too small) based pretty much solely on the very reasonable quote they gave over the phone and the good reviews on Google. They were just the nicest to work with and did a great job.

  I rarely give vendors perfect 5's, but Achikian Goldsmiths provided superior service. We had them custom make my wedding band using stones from my Grandmother's engagement ring. They designed it, matching my engagement ring (which my husband had purchased elsewhere) and it was a perfect match. It looks like the two rings were a matching set to begin with. We really felt like we could trust them and they were very friendly and personable. They also engraved our wedding bands at no charge.

  We really enjoyed working with Achikian. We looked for both of our bands there but ended up only buying my husband's from them (we bought the band to match my engagement ring). They were very helpful, making suggestions based on our vague idea of what we wanted and not pushing us into anything more expensive. They have a wide variety of styles and price ranges for such a small store and we were very happy with what we got for the price we paid. They also offer coupons if you join their email list, so that was nice as well.

  I am so glad we purchased our wedding bands from this jeweler. They were able to custom match the detailing on my engagement ring to my wedding band. We were not pushed to buy when browsing their selection and their staff was friendly and personable.

  We've always enjoyed working with Achikian. Ken has custom-made engagement and wedding rings for us, and he always does a wonderful job. He helps you figure out exactly what you want, and offers his insight about how your vision will turn out. His prices are fair, his work is of the highest quality, and he gets things done on time.

  My husband got my wedding band custom made by this jeweler. They did exactly what we wanted and the price was amazingly less than what we thought it would be (especially for a custom made piece). It turned out great. I would highly recommend this jeweler.

  We looked for wedding rings everywhere -- all the major chains. When it comes to the chain jewelry stores, you get the same treatment wherever you go: dapper, young salespeople try to charm you into buying what is basically the same ring you saw in the last store. Then Achikian was recommended to us. We got prompt, professional attention as soon as we went in. It's a small shop where they do the work on-site, which we liked. My husband found a unique, yet conservative gold band -- just what he was looking for. It was ordered promptly, but a mistake was made on the order. So they rushed a second one and we got it just in time. My ring had to be modified to fit my engagement ring. It was comforting to know that my engagement ring would remain on-site, and that the owner would be the one working on it. The match-up was perfect, and together my wedding and engagement rings look gorgeous. The prices are very reasonable and the service is excellent. If you want personalized attention and quality design, definitely try Achikian.

  We had my husbands ring designed here and my ring perfectly matched to my engagement ring. Staff was very nice, turn around time was good. The rings look great! They also offered to engrave rings for free and offered to have rings cleaned anytime they need it for the life of the rings. The only reason I did reduce the service star was because they orginally made my husbands wedding band the size of my wedding ring, so we had to come back to pick up after it was adjusted. Luckily we got our rings months in advance so it was not a major problem, just a little inconvienient.
