Fantastic experience working with Altana!
After nearly a year of researching the best jewelers for my engagement ring, I found Altana's jewelry at Fiat Lux's Fillmore store. Altana's website and Instagram profile had a ton of useful information that helped me gain the confidence to work with her. I was also pleasantly surprised to learn that her shop was situated less than a mile away from me! From the initial consultation to the proposal, Altana had been incredibly involved throughout the entire process. Altana's passion, expertise, craftsmanship, and creative drive convinced me that she would undoubtedly bring my vision to life. While other jewelers had many limitations, Altana made sure that I got the exact ring that I wanted. I deeply appreciate her sharing her talents with us, and for working closely with my partner to meet his budget and deadline. Thank you, Altana and Cassandra! -

Altana helped me & my fiance design my dream ring from beginning to end. I came to her for an initial consultation and instantly knew I wanted her to design my ring. Her work speaks for itself, she's incredibly sweet and supportive, and she's knowledgable about all things diamonds. -

Talented and amazing jeweler
All of Altana's pieces are incredible but my favorite one I have so far is my engagement ring. She worked with my partner on it for months (without much/any direction from me) and she designed the perfect ring. It is timeless and understated but tasteful; I absolutely love it. Every single detail is flawlessly executed and that just describes Altana's intuition and work in a nutshell. I will come back to her for every single jewelry piece that means a lot to me. Thank you, Altana! -

Finding the "perfect" engagement ring can be stressful and daunting. It can be difficult to figure out what your partner or what you may actually want vs what society and the jeweler you're talking to are telling you to want. The daunting experience can be even more so for queer couples.
With Altana, however, all of the confusion and stress disappears.
A friend had recommended working with Altana because of their wonderful experience, and Altana did not disappoint.
Altana is an artist first, jeweler second, thus all of her creations are unique, beautifully crafted, and reflect a piece of you and your partner.
She treats you like a creative equal partner during the entire process, rather than just another transaction.
If you're thinking about buying an engagement ring (or any jewelry really), Altana Fine Jewelry is a must stop!
Altana - thanks for helping us create a memorable engagement, a magnificent ring for my grandma, and for the wonderful, safe, and inclusive ambience.
(PS shoutout to Salami and Cassandra as well!)

10000% Recommend
I was looking for an engagement ring for my fiancé, and a great friend of mine recommended Altana. I had an initial meeting with her where I explained that I didn’t know much of what I wanted, but explained a couple of ideas and my budget, and she was fantastic. She explained everything, went over a few different options, and the process started! I can’t recommend her enough; her communication, design and price was perfect, my fiancé loves her ring, and we will definitely come back for our wedding bands. -

Exactly the custom ring we wanted
My fiancé and I had a great time working with Altana on a custom engagement ring! She walked us through each step of the process with tremendous patience since we really didn't know anything about rings going into this. From educating us about stones and types of metals to taking time to answer our questions about sketches and the CAD model, Altana and her team always took time to make sure we were comfortable with taking the next step forward. We found a ring in our travels that gave us inspiration for the general band style we liked, but the band we found was thicker than I wanted. I also wanted to keep the stone as close to my finger as possible since I'm always on the go and was worried about it snagging on things. It was definitely hard to tell exactly what the ring would look like from the CAD, but Altana 100% captured the delicate design we had hoped for in the end and it was even better than we could have envisioned! We are so grateful! -

I approached Altana to build a custom engagement ring. I had a design in mind, and Altana not only guided me through the process, but brought the vision to fulfillment better than I could have imagined! In the beginning, all I had was a scribble on some paper, and an idea... Altana took that small seed, and consulted with me, drawing up multiple versions of the concept for my choosing. We worked together over a couple of weeks, and once the idea was finalized, she set to work! What's more, I wanted to propose to my girlfriend on our anniversary, which was only a handful of weeks away. Altana not only took the project on, but was able to see it through masterfully from start to finish, and get me the ring on time! I can hardly believe that what was just a simple thought and a drawing, was able to become a beautiful, custom gold ring, and delivered to me on time for the proposal. My girlfriend was so elated, and everything went perfect... Yes, she is now is my beautiful fiancée... I love her so much, and to be able to give her something that no one else in the world has made the cherry on top of it all, and I owe it all to Altana alone! Nobody else could have pulled this off, and to have done it on time and with such masterful precision. I highly recommend Altana, especially if you have a very important ring that needs to come together perfectly. Altana is the one! -

Altana is so great! Working with her and her sister Cassandra was a very easy process. Altana did a wonderful job discussing design ideas, budget, and timeline. She made us FIVE RINGS. We were originally ordering a three ring stack, but we added the wedding band for my partner and she made us a little stacking ring for my set.
I am so glad we found her and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. -

Altana made sure we had the PERFECT engagement ring. We collaborated, and went back and forth on the design inspiration, materials, sketches, and everything in between. At the end, Cassandra, her sister (they are a team!), helped scheme against my partner, so I could fully surprise her with a finished ring, which she LOVED. Thank you! -

Justin Sent on 12/30/2023Outstanding & Remarkable Service!
We had no idea what to expect with our first experience shopping for engagement rings but after finding Altana and reading online reviews we wanted to schedule a visit. From the start Altana and her sister Cassandra made my partner and I feel special and comfortable throughout the entire process. It was a lot more fun and insightful than we both expected. Altana is so knowledgeable and friendly. After one visit my partner found her perfect ring! And to make things extra special Altana & Cassandra even helped me surprise my partner by expediting the ring to be ready for me to propose on Christmas Eve. We would both totally recommend and can’t wait to get our wedding bands from her. Thanks Altana and Cassandra from taking care of us and making our engagement so special! -

Outsanding Custom Ring Experience with Local Bay Area Jeweler
We had a tight deadline for creating our engagement ring, and were set on working with a local jeweler in the Bay Area. We feel so fortunate to have found Altana, and cannot recommend her enough! Communicating with her and her sister Cassandra felt personal and genuine from the start. We knew Altana's style was the right match, with a perfect balance of classic and modern aesthetics. The custom design process was wonderful, and she facilitated a collaborative experience for us that resulted in a beautiful 8 petal prong, peach sapphire ring. The quality and craftsmanship of the ring is outstanding, and reflects Altana's care and thoughtfulness. I am so happy to see Altana's storefront open and thriving in Oakland, and hope that many others choose to have Altana join their ring journey! -
