Best place to buy a diamond ring in San Francisco
by Valerie Y at Citysearch
This is the best place to buy a diamond engagement ring in San Francisco. They have a great selection of loose diamonds and are willing to work with a budget. Jahan, who owns the store is very knowledgeable on diamonds and willing to share his knowledge. That helped us quite a bit, when it came to make a decision on our diamond. Prices are very fair, compared to other jewelry stores and they have a large selection of engagement ring settings. They are located close to Union Square in San Francisco and are very customer service oriented.
The first and last stop for your jewelry needs!

Jahan has been my parent's family jeweler of choice for close to 15 years. Visiting his store as a teenager was always a fun experience as a "dreamed" of the day one of the diamond rings he would let me try on would be purchased for me. When my then-boyfriend and I went to visit his store in February looking for engagement rings, it had been at least 12 years since I had been to Jahan's. As an adult and without my parents, the experience was no different than I remembered. Jahan's professional, friendly, knowledgeable and most importantly, fair and honest business practice was still the same. I'm fairly knowledgeable about diamonds and extremely particular. I also like getting the best deal for my money...on everything. Like most men, my fiancé did not know the first thing about buying diamonds.
We went to a number of stores and did a lot of online research before I took him to Jahan's. I was hoping that Jahan's wholesale prices and quality would still beat anyone out there. He did not let us down and my fiancé was immediately able to see the vast difference between the other locations we had visited. We also learned that his diamonds are "conflict free," which was important to us.
After trying on several settings and showing Jahan pictures of things I liked, he told me "not to worry" and that whatever I liked could be duplicated or created without a problem. Other stores either were not willing to "create" what I wanted, or they wanted rights to our firstborn to do so. Their prices were outrageous! Also, they simply do not carry the quality of stones or variety of up-to-date settings that Jahan does.
My fiancé waited several months to propose and I had no idea what he had selected or when he'd made the purchase. He ended up modifying a setting Jahan already had that I had fallen in love with in the store. Note: I had hardly seen any settings I liked at other stores and Jahan had many settings I liked. I absolutely LOVE my GIA certified 1+ carat asscher cut diamond. It's surrounded by a vintage-looking square setting and set in a white-gold and palladium mix (so the metal is still durable, but won't yellow like white gold does) with baguettes down the sides and milgrain to give it that extra vintage flair. It's spectacular and I can firmly attest that I will never want to upgrade! Jahan even made the matching wedding band at the same time. I've uploaded a photo of the engagement ring. The band has been hidden away until the wedding.
I cannot advise you more to stay away from retail stores. The quality, price and level of professionalism just doesn't compare to Jahan's. I wholeheartedly recommend him to you. I get compliments on my ring almost daily, women saying "I've never seen anything like that and I just love it" or "Is that a family heirloom?" I'm constantly asked where my ring was purchased. Since my engagement, I have recommended Jahan's to several co-workers, a close friend and even a waiter at our restaurant just the other day.
- Pros: large variety of quality products, professional service
what a nice experience

We went there after going to gift center, Diamond mart and 866 Brannan,
We walked in looking for a one CRT diamond and we walked out with a GIA certified 1.40 CRT diamond for our money.
There should be a 6 star for special places like this
- Pros: price. quality
- Cons: none
Feel good about who you buy your ring from
by jeffcee at Citysearch
My fiancee and myself must have visited 10 other diamond stores in the city. However, after visiting Jahan it was clear that this was the man we wanted to have our business. During our first visit, I noticed how Jahan treated other customers with respect and dignity. He treated all customers the same and earned my respect. Overall, the price and service were outstanding. I would recommend this place without hesitation.
- Pros: Intelligent, respectful
- Cons: none
We wouldn't shop anywhere else for jewelry!

We were referred to Jahan almost 7 years ago and would not think of going anywhere else for our jewelry purchases. Everything we have purchased- engagement ring, diamond earrings and bracelet, pearls, watches, along with a custom made ring... have always appraised for much more than what we paid. The quality has always been outstanding. And, now that Jahan knows us so well, he is able to suggest pieces that he knows we will fall in love with.
Whenever we have a friend looking to purchase wonderful, quality jewelry of any kind, we always recommend Jahan... no matter where the person lives. While we live in Ft Lauderdale and St Louis... we always come to Jahan for all of our jewelry purchases.
