J Albrecht Designs

"We first met Jay and Laina and Kenny in 2009 when our business moved near theirs in downtown Boulder, and my husband purchased my engagement ring. They are exceptional. And their business exudes small business with a big bite. Their insight, care, and joy in helping you find the perfect gift is a testament to their love for what they do and what they create. To support good people, incredible artists, small business and fantastic jewelry makers - this is your one-stop shop. J Albrecht will always be our family jeweler."

"I cannot stress enough how amazing this place is. The staff is so accommodating, courteous, professional, and above all, they know their stuff. We had them customize one of their in-shop designs for my fiancé's engagement ring. Their insight and creativity were invaluable, as they were willing to work with us every step along the way while adding their years of experience and expertise. They were always incredibly fair, and their skill in jewelry design is unparalleled. I highly recommend J. Albrecht Designs."

"J and Laina worked tirelessly to design the perfect pendant symbolizing my two youngest grandchildren. The end result could not be more perfect with the most beautiful aquamarine stones I have ever seen. The pendant is classic. It can be worn everyday and everywhere. I am so pleased and I am sure my daughter-in-law will be over the moon when she inherits some day. They are the easiest people to work with. Their crew is equally as awesome and friendly. This is the second pendant I have from J Albrecht. It won’t be the last! Honest, easygoing, fair and beyond professional. We cannot recommend J Albrecht design more. They are the best!"

"I worked with J Albrecht designs on repurposing my late father’s wedding ring so that it can be a piece of gorgeous jewelry that our family will enjoy for generations. They were amazing… I would give them 6 stars if I could. They were honest about what would work well versus what was a little riskier, went out of their way to maintain the history and integrity of the ring, and kept me informed and involved along the way. The end result is stunning. I’m so grateful for their expertise and craftsmanship… plus they were just really fun to work with. I will recommend them time and time again!"

"These guys get five stars for a reason! My husband and I first used J Albrecht 15 years ago on my original wedding set, and as young almost-newlyweds we had a great experience with them…so when my husband surprised me by wanting to do a redesign/upgrade this year for our anniversary, I immediately knew that I wanted to travel up to Boulder to use them again. I am just so over the moon with how my new rings turned out—I love the different ways that the 3 rings stack and fit together, and Chrissie found the most s-t-u-n-n-i-n-g diamond to go into the middle of my new engagement ring. I have actually had my new rings for two months now, and I still can’t believe they are mine. I can’t stop staring at them! I absolutely love them, and they feel so very “me”. It’s such a cool feeling to have every time I look down at my hand. The best part about J Albrecht is how friendly and down-to-earth they are inside the store. They are very easy to work with, and there is no pretentiousness, intimidation, or high-pressured sales. They are people that truly love the art of creating unique settings for stunning gemstones. I feel like I am wearing a work of art every single time I wear a piece of jewelry created by them. Chrissie, Jay, Laina, and Kenny: these rings mean the world to me. We are just so thrilled with how they turned out! They are perfect in every single way. You guys are the best, and Levi and I feel so lucky to have such a caring and compassionate jewelry-maker like you to use here in Colorado. This was quite the upgrade from my original set of rings, but you made it easy! From the bottom of our hearts: thank you. I apologize for the over-abundance of words and photos, but I think that they turned out too good and too beautiful to not share…a lot! :) "
