Below you will find reviews written by Whiteflash customers from Illinois to give you a sense of their experiences and the variety and quality of jewelry we produce.

Cold, windswept Illinois is perhaps not the first place you might consider when you think of an enjoyable, high-end retail experience. But despite the wind and snow, Chicago, Illinois is shaping up to be a must-visit destination for shopper from the surrounding area. And while Chicagonians probably already know about shopping destinations like the Magnificent Mile and the Atrium Mall, there are tons of other excellent shopping destinations tucked away in many of Chicago’s smaller neighborhoods.

Nowhere is this more true than for jewelry shopping. Many Chicago, Illinois jewelers eschew the high rents of the ritzy retail blocks in favor of small, family-owned boutiques on quieter streets. Shoppers who might otherwise turn to the bland, generic designs in a mall chain store will be happy to learn that there are local Illinois jewelry stores in Chicago that offer unique designs, superior customer service, and competitive prices! Like everything else in Illinois, engagement rings here must be high-quality, timelessly elegant, but not excessively flashy.

Here are some of the best Chicago jewelry shopping opportunities in a variety of categories:

Best Boutique: This award has to be split between two exceptional local stores. The first, Embellish in the North Center area, carries a wide variety of fashionable sterling silver and gemstone fine jewelry. It has been described as the perfect place for the fashion-unaware guy to shop for his girl, as every single earring and necklace in the store is unique, trendy, and wearable. The second Best Boutique is Komoda, in Humboldt Park. An all-purpose gift boutique carrying a range of products by local artisans, Komoda is especially well-known for the carefully curated selection of jewelry made by Illinois jewelers. The jewelry is available at many price points, with pieces for both men and women.

Best Custom: Looking for the right jeweler to entrust with your custom jewelry design dreams can be stressful—there is a lot of trust involved. Luckily, Chicago custom jewelry shoppers are able to turn to Steve Quick Jewelers, an Illinois jeweler with decades of experience making custom jewelry dreams come true. Steve Quick is known for working with each individual, creating and refining the perfect custom engagement ring or wedding band design, and then producing a finished product with impeccable quality and craftsmanship. The jeweler is also known for his friendly, personalized touches, like offering a free beer to stressed-out male shoppers trying to choose engagement rings for their loved ones.

Best Designer: Chicago’s Magnificent Mile, a stretch of Michigan Avenue alongside the lake, boasts a designer retail collection to rival Madison Avenue or Rodeo Drive. Those looking for high-end designer jewelry in Illinois will not be disappointed—the Mile is home to a full fifteen stand-alone jewelry boutiques, including such bold-face names as David Yurman, Cartier and Tiffany and Co. In addition, the jewelry departments in the area’s department stores, like Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue, are impeccable.

Best Engagement Rings: While designer boutiques are fun, when it comes to choosing an engagement ring, experienced Chicago jewelry shoppers will choose a small, locally-owned Illinois jewelry store ever time. In fact, it is loyal Chicago customers that have given the Bryn Mawr Jewelry Company the highest Yelp rating of any jewelry store in Illinois. Fans rave about Bryn Mawr’s incredible customer service, the beautiful selection of engagement rings and wedding bands, the deep inventory of loose diamonds, and the rea.
