Gregg Helfer

We've worked with Gregg for almost 20 years, starting with my engagement ring... He has beautiful jewelry and can find whatever it is you're looking for. We've purchased necklaces, rings, bracelets, and earrings from him - and we've always been very happy. We trust him implicitly and always recommend him to friends and family when they are shopping for something special.

Dropped my fiancées ring off for a re-size, held it for two weeks, returned it unchanged.

My wife and I have known Gregg for 17 years and he has always taken care of us on all of our purchases. Highly recommended!

Gregg Helfer has been my family's jeweler for 15 years. Both my sons bought their engagement and wedding rings from Gregg. He listens to his clients' priorities, and presents diamonds with varying characteristics within a price range so that the client can select the jewel and then an appropriate setting. He spends as much time as the client needs to understand which diamond is the best choice given the budget and the preferences of the client. The fiancée of one of my sons wore her great- great grandmother's engagement ring after Gregg repaired and restored the 100+ year old ring. He then designed and made a wedding ring for the heirloom engagement ring. When my daughter-in-law requested some changes to the wedding ring, they were made quickly and expertly. I recommend Gregg Helfer because he has an incredibly broad knowledge and appreciation for fine jewelry, and is completely trustworthy. His pricing his more than fair. You can't go wrong here.

I had a great experience with Gregg - he spent one-on-one time with me, helped me choose the right diamond, and custom made my ring inside of 3 weeks so I could stay on track with my "plan"-

He has helped me with other custom jewelry as well, and its all worked out great-

He really knows his stuff, is very patient in explaining terminoligy to the layperson, and has an ablity to match my taste with the things he shows me. Highly recommended.

I'm a very meticulous consumer of fine jewelry & have made purchases w/in some of the finest jewelry shops in N.Y., Chicago, & California. During my informal jewelry education I've noted that consumer not only pay for the particular good, but all the associated cost(s). A huge facility w/ all the bells & whistles translates to higher pricing. So please don't be fooled by the quaint size of Gregg Helfer's shop for an instant. they offer an array of fine product lines equal to or in my personal opinion better then that of larger brand name shops within the couture filled Mag mile of Michigan Ave. or Wabash Ave. diamond district in Chicago. In addition, they have an extensive inventory of merchandise that extends beyond their door.

I met with Michael, who offers pristine customer service & operations along with Gregg "the Guru", of precious stones & fine metals. This family offers a lineage filled with unparalleled experience and industry insight. The two create a perfect complimentary blend. I assure you that you'll leave truly satisfied w/ your final purchase.

I came in for a one of a kind engagement ring & I left w/ a product that cannot be surpassed regarding the overall quality in reference to the "three c's". Which means other then increasing the overall total carat weight, you cannot buy a finer engagement ring. Even more important, my fiancé is happy w/ the final product & that's priceless. This review is 100% authentic in content. With that said I recommend Gregg Helfer Ltd. without reservation.

E.A.B.

Gregg designed an engagement ring and two wedding rings which were better in all ways than anything else we could find in Chicago, even after we shopped at the high-end jewelry store on Oak St. and other comparable places!

The great advantage in dealing with a Private Jeweler and Gregg Helfer in particular is the personalized attention you get, in the comfort of a private office, all wrapped up in a certain feel of elegance and discretion.

My now-husband chose Gregg Helfer Ltd. to pick my engagement diamond and our rings after a thorough search of Internet reviews. We were delighted to find that Michael, the person with whom we worked, indeed provided us with the excellent service we expected based on the reviews.

We went on our lunch breaks to select the diamond and rings. Michael was waiting, on time, with 3 lovely stones in the ½ - ¼ carat range, per the request of Larry, my then-fiancé. He gave us a brief education on the 3 Cs of diamonds, and I picked one of the stones.

At that point, Larry turned to Michael and said, ‘If it was anyone else sitting beside me, I would not ask this question . . . can you show us something in a full carat?’ Michael checked the inventory, and arranged to show us 2 more diamonds. He was efficient, and yet never made us feel rushed. We completed the selection and ring sizing within our lunch hours. I now wear a gorgeous 1.1 carat diamond, which sparkles at me all day.

We were eloping to Vegas in a couple of weeks, and Michael ensured that we had the rings several days prior to our flight. He even cleaned my diamond studs when we picked up the rings.

Thank you, Michael, for the excellent service you provided. I recommend Gregg Helfer Ltd. enthusiastically and without reservation.
