Paula and Chris are community friendly and excellent Jewelers. They repaired our ring, hosted a styled jewelry shoot, and joined our Amador Wedding and Wine Tour. Visit them. They're knowledgeable pros.

I got a ring resized at Rare Exceptions and they were quick, kind and courteous! They communicated well about when it would be ready and called me to pick it up, and it looks perfect! They’ll treat you like family and celebrate your special occasion with you while helping you out.

Lovely place with lovely people! It's hard to find an honest jeweler/goldsmith these days but this little mom and pop is the pinnacle of kindness and customer support. They treat you like a friend here and that might be even more valuable than their extensive inventory/services.

Hands down the best customer care.. excellent selection, and staff makes you feel right at home. They're more than happy to take all the time to truly educate you on what would be the best buy for you while staying within your means.
So glad to be supporting a hometown jeweler rather then a big box store and recieve such excellent service.

Love it here! I have been going to Rare Exception Jewelers for years now for repairs, ring resizing and such and have repeatedly been happy with their work. The environment is always kind and friendly, the work consistently done in a reasonably swift manner, and the finished product always looks perfect!
