Our jewelry for a few years now. They are amazing at designing your own style or replicating a ring you want. They are easy to work with and they will make sure you are happy with your item. Trustworthy and professional. You will not regret making them your jeweler. Pictures of my newly designed engagement ring.

Steve and family are amazing jewelers; honest, helpful people who strive to make you happy even when your pocket is hurting.Listen, ring shopping is a challenge on its own. Even when she tells you what she likes, it’s far from easy. The thing is… you want it right, so she’s not just happy, but super happy without overspending.Just saying… I think it’s worth chatting with Steve and determining what’s right.Don’t get buyer’s remorse elsewhere.

My husband picked out a beautiful 2 carat Diamond F color cushion cut for my engagement ring. Absolutely stunning! Peter and Steven knew I was looking for a simple custom setting and created the perfect design. Couldn’t be happier!

My daughter and son-in-law come to INTA GEMS for over 10 years. They recommended me to start coming here. Well, I had really good experience!! I was treated so nicely! I had several different questions and I left happy and satisfied!P.S. before INTA GEMS I stopped by at another business next door and got very cold answers to my questions even I bought jewelry from this business couple of times a few years ago.Thank you Peter for designing my new beautiful ring!Thanks to your parents for my new wedding band and thanks a lot for hospitality and helping with other thingsFrom now on I will come only to your place

I had an amazing experience working with INTA Gems to design my fiances engagement ring a few months ago. When I went to shop they were so helpful and kind. I liked various aspects of two different rings and they designed an entirely original ring for me with all of the elements that I liked. I was also able to pick all the stones that went in it. The communication with INTA Gems during the entire design process was clear, prompt, and so warm. You can see the love and passion that the whole family has for their craft. Also they made this custom ring in only three weeks! I was really impressed at every step and, most importantly, my fiance absolutely loves her ring. Thank you, INTA Gems!

My husband and I have shopped at Intagemson a few occasions and have always been pleased with the selection, quality and prices of the pieces there. There is always friendly staff waiting to help you which is greatly appreciated. Looking forward to going back soon!

After hours of online searching and visiting multiple jewelers in DTLA, I went with Steve!After getting quotes on multiple vendors, Steve gave me the most competitive price from all the stores. Steve was very honest, helpful, and super generous to answer all the questions I had in mind.Thank you Steve and the team for helping me with my engagement ring! The quality, design, and everything about the ring was amazing. I recommend Steve 120% for all your jewelry needs.

Amazing customer service!! Their only interest is to sell a quality product that you will love! I have been coming here for about 5 years for my jewelry and everytime they get it right. Great people to work with and a big selection of hand picked gems and diamonds by the owner. Got my wifes ring customized with an emerald and its just what we needed she loves it!

Stopped by INTA gems while engagement ring shopping. I knew Peter and Steve because of INTA’s sponsorship of Miss California, and knew that was one of the first places I wanted to show my boyfriend. Their service and selection are great, and the prices just cant be beat. I’m certain we’ll buy my ring from INTA Gems!

I went into the entire process of looking for engagement rings a little nervous. Definitely unsure. I was trying to find or design a ring with opals, and I wasnt too sure if I would be able to find a place that could do that. But then two friends recommended INTA and I set up an appointment with Steve. After many back and forths, and after me bringing up design ideas that forced us to completely redo everything for an incredibly more complicated design, I got the ring and it was incredible.Every step of the way was just made so much easier because of them. The folks at INTA are professional. Theyre dedicated to bringing excellence to their work. They have a fantastic selection of gems to work with. And theyre just fun to be around and easy to work with. Looking for help with jewelry? I honestly dont know how how much better you can get than this.

Such a great group of people! They have incredibly good service, it’s genuinely fun to hang out there, they give good, honest advice and they went well beyond the call of duty in the process of designing an engagement ring for my fiancé! I will be recommending them to everyone I know in LA in search of rings and/or jewellery.

I had such a great experience at this family-owned business! My first experience with INTA Gems was when I accompanied my friend, to help him pick out a jewelry piece for a loved one. They instantly made us feel like family. My experience with my friend at INTA Gems left such an impression on me that I knew this would be the place for me to shop whenever I needed to purchase jewelry. Yesterday was my turn to pick out jewelry for my loved ones. My experience was no different from the my first time there. Everyone made me feel so welcomed and comfortable. I am extremely happy with the beautiful pieces I purchased for my mother, sister and girlfriend. I highly recommend shopping at INTA Gems!

My fiance purchased my engagement ring from Connie in May 2018, and he had a fantastic experience! They helped him design the most beautiful ring for me, and I could not be happier with how it turned out.He and I went back twice in October and December 2018 to pick out our wedding bands and were helped by Connie, Jerry, and Peter - they were all incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and kind! They offered us water and/or tea every time we visited them, and they made sure that we were always well cared for.Were both very young, and while other jewelers treated us as if we werent serious customers, everyone at INTA showed us respect and offered us very personalized and thorough care.Connie, Jerry, and Peter are so fun and easy to work with! They are great at finding the most beautiful pieces WITHIN A DESIRED BUDGET! They arent pushy AT ALL and truly want to help you find the perfect piece for you or your loved one.INTA has an great selection that is worth checking out, but their service from Connie, Jerry, and Peter is absolutely the reason why we will go back! I would recommend INTA to everyone!!!

Best place to go for gems and diamonds. Steve and Peter are awesome to work with and they are very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. No pushy salesman tactics at this place. They are helpful and can work with a budget. If they dont have it, they can get it, but from their huge showcases, they pretty much have most of what people are looking for. Always a pleasure to work with these guys

I came here a few weeks ago to find a sapphire for my girlfriend. Steven took the time to show me multiple choices and styles and answered my many questions. Both him, Peter, and Connie all helped me throughout the process and I couldnt have been happier. Once I picked out the stone they were able to make me a ring from a custom design I brought in. They are friendly, professional, and reasonable priced, I highly recommend going here if you are looking for a ring.

I am not a big “reviewer”. I typically am only on here to offer stern warnings of places to stay away from. I guess I am old school and expect good service. I don’t think that something that should be there anyway, needs any additional praise. INTA Gems is another story. This place is the be all end all, Alpha/Omega, Beginning and End of jewelry stores downtown LA. I personally travel from Studio City to see them once a year since purchasing my wife’s engagement ring here in 2011, but I would travel from pretty much anywhere to see Connie & Jerry, Eric, Karina and Peter. From the moment I walked in 5 years ago these people have been a part of our lives and they have treated my wife and I like their family. 5 years and 4 rings later, the service hasn’t changed, the jewelry and maintenance is impeccable, and they still greet me like a long lost friend every time I walk in. The latest trip out was to find a matching band for my wife’s wedding ring to solder it together to create a complete set. The band was discontinued years ago and they searched high and low all over the world to find another one. it would only be 6 weeks until it got here, until Karina, found the exact ring in the back of one of their cases. I was out the door in less than an hour with the perfect Valentines/baby momma gift that blew her away! I cannot say enough about the quality, service and friends that I have made at INTA Gems. and I haven’t even mentioned the prices yet!!!

I recommend INTA Gems to everyone! Everyone there was so helpful but Erica and Jerry really made it a wonderful experience for us when purchasing our wedding bands. They kept us smiling and laughing and really just made it the best experience in our wedding planning. I ended up finding a bridal set that I fell in love with and the rings are just amazing and perfect and really stands out. I was so happy with my purchase, with them and their service, I came back 2 days later to purchase a gemstone from them too! Such a wonderful family owned business, I will be telling everyone to come see them for rings and diamonds!

BEST PLACE EVER! When we went to the jewelry district in search of the perfect engagement ring, my anxiety was immediately through the roof! Every place had pushy salesmen and I did not trust the quality of the jewelry at all. I was about to give up when I gave INTA Jewels a try. Thank God I did! When we walked in, we were greeted with kind smiles instead of forceful words. This was the first place that invited us to sit down, have a glass of water, some delicious lychee candy, and take a breath. My shoulders fell from my ears and I relaxed for the first time all day. The employees at INTA took the time to talk us through different stones and settings. I felt listened to and respected every step of the way. In the end, they helped me find a gorgeous sapphire and yellow gold ring that made me cry from its beauty. My mom and grandma weren’t able to make the trip so the employees at INTA went the extra mile once again and made a video of the ring for me to send to them. They spoke with us for an hour, never once pressuring us to buy, and never once wavered in their kindness. We bought the ring for an incredible price and every time I see it I can smile because of there are nothing but fond memories of buying it. In summary, INTA jewels is the place to go if you want to buy an affordable, beautiful piece of jewelry from people who are kind, respectful, and will LISTEN instead of pressuring up for a buy. These people care about helping you and aren’t in it for a buck. I would recommend this place to everyone I meet! Thank you INTA!

I live all the way in Oklahoma and have been a customer and fan of this amazing family run business for years. Prior to having purchased my first piece from them, I had visited several other stores in the jewelry mart. I just didnt feel like the other jewelers were listening or really cared about what I wanted - just wanted to sell something in their inventory. Peter and the team of INTA Gems are so genuine, that I connected with them right away. They worked with me to create a piece that I just love and was within my budget. Even when I am not in the market for jewelry, I pop in to say hello because they are old family friends now! If you are looking for a trustworthy place to buy jewelry, I highly recommend them!

SO MUCH SELECTION! My husband was able to custom build my engagement ring, and Peter showed him every single fancy yellow (even different colors) diamond option in the whole jewelry district for what we wanted. They are even happy to take something they already have and customize that for you. They added little details to our wedding bands to make them special for us, and they were such a great deal for such high quality, too. I also have a bezel topaz and yellow gold ring from them, and the craftsmanship is perfection. The whole family is there to help you, and they are just the sweetest. Thank you Inta Gems & Diamonds!

What a great experience. I was looking for a great store among the thousands that are in the LA jewelry district. I stopped at several before arriving at Inta. They have got to be the best of the best, Connie is fantastic. I had a small pendant custom designed with several sapphire stones. From start to finish was one afternoon and the result was fantastic.

I knew I wanted a sapphire as the center stone on my engagement ring but other than that my fiancé and I had zero clue about the ring buying process. We started off just getting a feel for things at big box jewelry stores and then moved our search to LA’s diamond district. The first store we visited was clearly not interested in working with us and the second ended up recommending Inta Gems for their excellent reputation and selection of gem stones. For us third time was the charm and we pretty much knew it right after talking with Connie and Jerry. This is a family run business, even their young granddaughter was there one day helping out. Overall we felt taken care of and Connie brought our vision to life while also helping us stay close to our budget. My ring is so beautiful and my fiancé and I could not be happier.

I am embarrassed to say that this review is very late because I am such a procrastinator. I found INTA Gems online while searching websites solely on feedback and I was quit intrigued by all the positive reviews on INTA. My husband wanted to buy me a 31 year anniversary ring. I didnt want to go to a franchise diamond company, but the drive downtown didnt thrill me either. I couldnt resist all the POSITIVE feedback though and had to go meet this wonderful establishment. So, off we drove from Thousand Oaks to downtown LA diamond district. I already felt like I knew Peter from all the feedback Id read and our phone calls prior to meeting him. The entire family is so gracious and kind, but my heart belongs to Peter. Peter treated us like he had known us forever. He is so experienced in the field of diamonds and settings that I felt immediately at ease with him. I know that each person that goes to INTA will be treated with kindness, hospitality, and respect. There is absolutely NO PRESSURE from him and that meant a lot to me. I could go on and on about all the little things he did for us to make our visit memorable, but I think each person will experience their own when you visit. Now, let me tell you about my diamond ring. WHOA Nellie its a beauty. We explained to Peter what we had in mind and he found the diamond that I wanted exactly. We then found the perfect setting and band. Its gorgeous. We just loved being with Peter and his family so much that when we went back a week later to pick up my ring we bought a faboulous set of diamond earrings, lol. I didnt care for the usual setting larger diamond earrings are set in. These diamonds were gorgeous and needed their own unique setting to showcase them. Leave it to Peter to come up with the Martini setting. Brilliant, just brilliant. I get so many compliments on my ring and earrings. The quality of my ring is the best diamond Ive ever owned, AND the biggest. YAY. I was sad when it was time to pick up the earrings because I knew we werent going to be back and Id really grown very fond of sitting and chatting with Peter and his family. Peters parents are very, very nice people. They should be very proud of their son, he really shines in his presence with customers. I apologize to you Peter and family for being so delinquent with my review, there is no excuse except I am a procraistinator. You deserve more than a measly 5 stars. You deserve 100 stars. Please visit INTA Gems if you are considering a special ring for someone in your life, you will not be disappointed.

This was our 3rd time coming down to Dtla, trying to find the perfect Diamond, for the right price! We were walking around and we came across INTA Gem & Diamonds and guess what? They nailed it! My fiance and I walked out with a gorgeous Diamond, for a great price! I would like to thank Steve, he was instrumental in helping us find our diamond. The staff is knowledgeable and they dont pressure you here like the other guys! Over here at INSTA Gem & Diamonds, they treat you like family and they give you gummy candy too! Lol..

Review №57

Where do I begin?Inta Gems is a GREAT place. Not only do they have a great selection of stuff, but when comparing with many other jewelers, they definitely stand above and beyond the others. I bought my wife’s engagement ring and wedding band at Inta Gems about 3 years, and will not be buying jewelry from anyone else but Jerry, Connie, or their kids Steve and Peter. If you haven’t noticed, I am referring to them by name as this is the type of relationship that I have built with them over the past 3 years. This sound cliché, but for people I’ve only met 3 years ago, they seem more like family. They are friendly, knowledgeable, fair, but most importantly HONEST people. For that, they will get all of my business when it comes to jewelry.Over the past three years, I have returned to Inta Gems several times for myself and also bringing in friends who were looking for stuff for their wives. Every single time we walk through the door, I see Jerry and Connie’s smiling faces and it brings me absolute joy. My friends have nothing but positive things to say about the stuff they have purchased thus far and have nothing but rave reviews about Jerry, Connie, and staff. One thing I want to point out here, is a conversation that I had with Jerry during my last visit on 3/9/2013. I told Jerry that he and his wife work so hard, and that they need to take an extended vacation. Jerrys response was that he loves what he does and that this was more or less like a “hobby”. His comments have stuck with me and now I have a better understanding as to why they are so friendly when people walk through those doors… Because they LOVE what they do.For those who are reading this review, please believe me when I say this… I can GUARANTEE that you will LOVE the service that you receive at Inta Gems. Don’t do what I did in the beginning by going to the mall stores, Tustin Jewelry mart, Jared, Robbin’s Brothers holding a piece of paper with the information that I learned online about diamonds (i.e. 4 C’s, type of diamond, GIA vs EGL, etc…) ---- A complete waste of time, as these stores will 9 out of 10 times lead you towards something that has nothing to do with what you are looking for, and will try to sell you a lower grade diamond, just because it is larger. Trust me, a SI2 is not the same as a VVS1. Also, going to the LA Jewelry district to find a jeweler is like trying to sift through a haystack to find a needle.Let me save you some time… Just go see Jerry and Connie, they will help you sort this all out and keep you within your budget... And you can come back to this review and thank me later.Hopefully in your selection process, you will really take my review into consideration. Or you can ignore my suggestion, go elsewhere, and have to endure the same headaches I had 3 years ago. I recently went back to have my wife’s rings cleaned and once again, Jerry and Connie were awesome. I could not resist, so I bought something else from them. By the way Jerry & Connie, she will love it when she gets it… I am positive. See you guys soon…!

I recommend Intagems & Diamonds. My gf and I were overwhelmed looking for engagement rings at the downtown LA jewelry district bc there are too many stores.... so I did a search on Google Maps and found Intagems. I was very impressed with the number of positive reviews and solid reputation they have. Its family owned and theyve been in this business for 38years or so (learned this from their website). I saw a couple getting an appraisal and overheard them say, This is why I have been coming to you for years. Steve and Erica, thank you so much for helping us find a ring that my gf loves and dreams about. You guys are awesome!
