Cleves & Lonnemann

I stopped here to see about getting my fiancés engagement ring mounted back onto a new ring as the ring and diamond broke off of each other (she lost the ring but found the diamond and its casing) I left this store balling my eyes out as they took a couple of seconds to look at it and told me it was fake and CZ, and likely gold plated. So this made me feel I got ripped off when I bought it. I was very upfront with the employees at this store about being new to the jewelry world as I have never been engaged before. Afterward I stopped by Mommoth Jewlers in Newport where they KEPT the ring to fully evaluate it and give me a formal estimate. To my surprise they told me the ring is 100% real gold and real moissanite. Which is what I bought. I wanted to steer from a diamond because mining diamonds isn't always ethically done. This is much better and relieving news compared to what I got at C&L. The employees at MJ talked with me for several minutes and were very empathetic to my situation. I would avoid the bland, and non compassionate interaction you will receive at C&L and head to Mommoth Jewlers instead.

You can’t beat the service at a small independent shop like this. I took them a watch that a large downtown jeweler told me could not be repaired because the link they needed to fix the bracelet was no longer made. C&L sourced the piece from somewhere and my baby is as good as new! Two enthusiastic thumbs up for true professionals who actually care.

Fantastic service and expertise! It’s very nice to interact with a hands on business owner that is extremely knowledgeable and has had the business in their family for generations. I have both had a watch repaired and purchased from them and will continue to do so in the future.

My family has been coming here for 4 generations. I know they have reset rings to be updated for the next generation wearing them. Never a problem. I took in a silver chain which needed to have the ring replaced. They're going to replace that clean the necklace up. Approximately $15. Have a great 2026! 1-6-26

Nice Rolex and the owner was very knowledgeable and helpful but looked at a used 11.7 gram 10kt figuro bracelet that they wanted $1475 but I looked it up on Google and calculated it in penny weight like they go off of and even with the increase of gold in today's price it was only worth $975. I know they have overhead but $500. Then the girl that was showing me the bracelet kinda got snotty cause I was doing my research in the store to see if we were in the ballpark. I would of bought it but not at $500 over the worth of it. Also it wasn't even polished and scratched but I will let you fine people be the judge on whether or not you wanna spend your hard earned $$$$ there.
