Ok, sitting at my office computer as I have just picked the ring up from Serjeo. It looks amazing, I had pictures of the design I wanted for him to work from. It was a design I saw in another jewelry store (that was going to overcharge by $8000 by the way) and the ring I saw in that store looks identical to the one that Serjeo has produced for me. I was doubtful that the subtleties of the rings simple yet elegant design would be copied perfectly and that the quality of the work would match that of the high end jewelers like Cartier, Tiffany & De Beers. I am very, very satisfied with not only the quality of the work but also the service provided (pre-production attention, mold viewing etc). Serjeo has provided me with an official appraisal of the ring for me to provide to the insurance company as well as all the relevant documentation such as the GIA certificate and the invoice. If I had one complaint to make about the experience with Serjeo is that the time to create the ring was no quick turn around. However, this is due I believe in part to mix up with the GIA at the beginning (see my first review) and also to the fact that because he does all the craftsmanship himself. Evidently he puts so much care into the pieces he creates that with so many customers it is imperative that you book him well in advance of any scheduled proposal date. When I came in today at one in the afternoon he had been working the previous night till eight in the morning, he went home to shower and then returned so he would be able to see me and his other appointments. All in all, I am very happy with the quality of work and will be using him now for all commissioned pieces, my faith in him to produce the results at a superior standard are now concrete. Not only is he a true artist but he is also a gentleman to work with. Thank you Serjeo! - Alex
Pros: Fantastic final product - see my other reviews of the whole process.
Cons: Book him early; he is a very busy man...simply because he is so talented!
