Be very careful when purchasing an item from this business. Ensure that what you are purchasing is the real thing. A year ago, I was in the market to purchase an engagement ring. I needed to purchase a loose diamond for the setting. The initial GIA certified diamond that I liked was too expensive and I wanted to look at options. I was shown a diamond that was described to me as being 1.02 cts, F color and SI2 clarity. I was informed that it did not come with a GIA certificate, but that it was graded by GIA trained staff and met GIA grading standards. I purchased it. I have three documents from Medawar Jewelers that state it is F color and SI2 clarity. Medawar’s appraised value of the ring: $12,000. Recently, I took this ring to five different jewelers to have it examined. The consensus is that the loose diamond is not F color or SI2 clarity according to GIA standards. The fifth jeweler is a GIA certified gemologist. I paid for a full appraisal. The diamond is “H-I” color and “I” in clarity. Certified appraised value of the ring: $6,700.

It is always a pleasure to stop in and visit Jon-Pierre when we are in Okemos. My husband purchased my engagement ring at another jewelry store in Lansing which proved to be a big mistake. What became our good fortune was to find Medawar Okemos!! Jon-Pierre took care of the issues we had with the engagement ring and has continued to provided excellent customer service. He is the only jeweler we will let work on our rings. Jon-Pierre has created many custom pieces for us in the past two years, each time taking great care to capture exactly what we are looking for. Our favorite is the family pendent he created to symbolize our joined family, it is truly a master piece. Only someone who cares for his customers and customer service could create such perfect pieces. My husband and I consider this our first stop for jewelry because of the personal customer service from Jon-Pierre and his entire staff. It is always a pleasure to shop at Medawar Jewelers, Okemos where you know honesty and caring are at the corner stone of their business.

I have made so many people happy with gifts from this jewelry store. They have classical jewelry and fun gifts too, and I have gone all the way from engagment diamonds to Pandora bracelets and more. I have selected gifts for my wife, mother and even young son at Medawar. My little guy wears a watch and cross pendant from this store. They have serviced my watch, as well. I check with Medawar on all holidays because they always have items in all price ranges and I always have fun looking and choosing. Its nice to do business with nice people. We are lucky to have them.

I met the Medawar family in 2006 and have had nothing but great experiences working with them over the past several years. It all started with a custom-designed engagement ring and, much to my wifes delight, has since progressed to wedding bands, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and other beautiful adornments. My wife loves the jewelry and I absolutely love the friendly service and family-run business. Medawar Jewelers has become my exclusive provider for any jewelery needs I have. If you want great service and a fantastic experience, visit Medawar Jewelers!

My fiance got my engagement ring here and we both decided to come back to get our wedding rings here. Service: The main thing I dread are pushy-employees, and they were not pushy at all! They were very helpful, patient, and great at explaining everything. Emphasis on patient - we were pretty indecisive. They also were considerate of our budget and didnt try to suggest things that were too expensive. The rings: They got the size perfect, and were able to customize things (like the height of the setting) so it was perfect.

If I could offer zero stars, I would. I used to go to this store to buy and service jewelry, but will never step foot in this store again. The owner is rude and arrogant and clearly has no interest in maintaining his business. I had a watch serviced that was not properly resealed and now needs more than $700 in repairs. John-Pierres response was, "I cant do anything with the $700 because all we did was replace an $8 battery." So beware, apparently once you leave the store, they wont guarantee a single thing they do.

Took my grandfathers old luxury watch in, was taken care of quickly and expensively, and was well done. The guy isnt in every day, which could be an issue if you needed a quick turnaround. Noticed great jewelry selection while I waited, elegant womens necklaces and fantastic selection of mens rings- normally so boring, but they had interesting alternative styles, like petrified wood inlays. Very pleased, would return.

My husband and I got out wedding bands/my engagement ring from here last year. The ladies were great at helping us, and the customer service was exceptional!! My ring is so beautiful, and so are our wedding bands. Were going to come come back and have another band made for my ring for our anniversary when we can afford it, and I know theyll do a great job! Thank you for being a part of our happily ever after!

Fantastic! The staff was incredibly nice and very helpful. I challenged them with a hard to meet timeline and they delivered a week earlier than the deadline! I couldnt be more happier with the ring and services! And even more excited to ask the most important question of my life next weekend. Thank everyone at Medawar Jewelers for making this day so perfect

Medawar Jewelers is the only place I would go for my jewelry needs! The selection and quality of gem stones and jewelry pieces is always unique and creative. When I enter the store I am greeted with a warm welcoming smile. They always go above and beyond from cleaning my rings to wrapping my packages. They understand customer service!

The only issue I could possibly have is making a decision. My husband always picks exactly what I want.
