I am very pleased with my experience at Whitefire. I went there to see what options I had for altering my heirloom diamond engagement ring to better fit my taste. Joseph was very helpful and knowledgable and was able to do exactly what I wanted with the ring at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend Whitefire!
My fianc? and I got my engagement ring and our wedding bands from Whitefire Jewelry and we are completely, 100% satisfied with each piece. For my engagement ring, Joseph helped us select a setting based on our preferences and budget and gently steered me toward a radiant cut diamond instead of an asscher cut?he was absolutely right about the cut. I couldn?t be happier with my ring and get so many...
My fiancee and I got our engagement rings and wedding bands from Joseph, and we couldn't be happier with Whitefire! Joseph took the time to answer all of our questions and made this purchase as easy as could be. If you're considering a jewelry purchase, you owe it to yourself to talk to Joseph!
I didn't want a diamond engagement ring and came into Joseph's with a ring in mind. Joseph listened very carefully to what we wanted and walked us through the process of choosing a setting and a center stone. He made suggestions without being pushy and the end result was more beautiful than what I wanted to begin with. I have a ring that I will want to wear for the rest of my life and that I a...
My fiance had a rather unique taste in what she wanted in an engagement ring. With Joseph's help we were able to find a stone and setting along the lines of what my fiance wanted. The end result was perfect, and everyone who has seen the ring has been extremely impressed with it. Joseph was never pushy, and really just wanted to know what we wanted and helped us find exactly that. I would not...
Joseph knew exactly what we were looking for. My fiance had bought my diamond online from Blue Nile but they did not have the setting we were looking for. Joseph had the exact setting we wanted and was so wonderful at giving us very personal and speedy service. He had my diamond set perfectly and I could not be happier with my beautiful engagement ring. We are definetly going back to him to pick...
I didn't think anything could take the sting out of turning 60, but Joseph and my husband found the perfect necklace. Joseph took all the time we needed to find just what I wanted. We will definitely visit again.
My husband and my sister knew exactly what type of engagement ring I wanted, but it is an unusual, vintage setting that was hard to find. They went to multiple corporate stores to find it with no luck. My husband came across Whitefire on the internet, so they gave it a shot. Thank heavens! Joseph found the exact setting and diamond for my "dream ring".
I was beside myself when I saw it. It is e...
I was in the market for an upgrade on my wedding ring but I also wanted an anniversary band. Joseph was able to "recycle" my old ring into an anniversary band & use the leftover diamonds in a new wedding ring. Joseph was very pleasant to work with & extremely knowledgeable. I never felt as though I couldn't get exactly what I wanted. The prices are a fraction of retail & the work on my new cu...
I just got engaged over the weekend and am 100% thrilled about the ring my fiance and I chose through Whitefire. The best thing about Whitefire is being able to customize your ring to fit your budget and preferences. When you go through one of the big chain retailers, you get the very lowest quality diamond at a marked up price and you'll have to deal with high pressure sales. This is not the ...
After spending six months diligently searching for an engagement ring, I chanced upon WhiteFire while visiting the Chase Bank building on Burnet Rd.
As a native of England, in an effort to find the 'ideal' ring I even spent a week researching the various gemologist's in Hatton Garden, the UK's diamond capital.
However, I finally made my purchase with Joseph. From a customer service standpoint ...
Got a fantastic looking ring that literally got my fiancee stopped on the street routinely. I spent a little more on this than my car, but was still feel I got a very good price on everything. Joseph really did a great job of giving me the right options and guidance to build a winner.
Joseph was a lot of fun to work with. We spent about two months custom designing the perfect engagement ring for the perfect girl. He was very patient with my slow decisions and meticulous attention to detail. He was very committed to creating a one-of-a-kind piece. My fiance is ecstatic with the finished product. I would highly recommend White Fire Jewelry for your engagement ring needs!
Joseph and his staff were flawless in helping me design just the right engagement ring. I had family stones and Joseph worked to find a band setting for them and the oval centerstone. I did not know how attached I was that diamond until it saw it on my lady's hand. I look forward to using Whitefire again.
Thank you Joseph.
Joseph at Whitefire is really very insightful in determining just the right fit for this special time( marriage proposal) in one's life .He was patient and careful in understanding the true nature of the relationship and the values important to both of us. The ring we selected was indeed a unique ring that was perfect for her hand. You cannot go wrong with the values,personal service and the ca...
Joseph and everyone at Whitefire are wonderful! I could not have had a better experience. I ordered my UT class ring from them, and they were endlessly helpful, patient, and professional. They went above and beyond to find a ring that was exactly what I had hoped for, at one point even ordering a ring in silver that is usually only made in gold; at absolutely no extra cost to me for the trouble! ...
I was looking for an engagement ring. I had been searching for a particular sort of design in a ring and was able to find what I was looking for at Whitefire. I set an appointment. Joseph was kind and helpful. I was on a very limited budget and I got more than I could anywhere else plus great one on one service. The ring is beautiful and my now fiance' is always telling me how impressed ever...
We had 2 old family diamonds, not large or great quality, but they mean a lot to us. Joseph took our idea for a pendant and turned a business transaction into a precious memory and heirloom. He treated a relatively minor piece of jewlery (compared to his more fabulous, larger items) as important for him as it was for us. We got CAD drawings, a wax model, which we asked to be slightly modified, an...
Working with and experienced and qualified jeweler is definately the way to go when you are shopping for the perfect piece of jewlery. Joeseph was exteremly helpful and knowledgable and the products that he delievers are outstanding! I have given his name to all of my closest friends!!
I was looking for someone to make a custom diamond ring for my anniversary. I setup an appointment with whitefire and I am very pleased with the quality and service. I should have gone to whitefire jewelry first and I would have saved a lot of time. Certainly next time around. I highly recommend them.
I searched dozens of stores in search of my engagement ring for my fiance and was lucky to find Joseph and Whitefire here in Austin. I had a little education on the subject of buying diamonds but was re-educated and well informed by Joseph. No other Jeweler I talked to actually took the time to show me how to look for inclusions using a magnification tool as Joseph did. I was 100% satisfied an...
Aaron - My buying experience was fantastic, no pressure to buy. I called ahead and talked to Joseph told him what I was looking for the next day he had 3 diamonds for me to look at, I picked a gorgeous 1.54 carat cushion cut diamond. I had been to 14 stores before going to Whitefire, so I knew what I was looking for and approx. what it would cost me. The diamond I chose was anywhere from 1.5 to 2...
Thank you for helping me purchase my engagement ring. Your service was honest and sincere and like other posters I too think I got a great deal buying my diamond engagement ring through whitefire. - Shrudi
After visiting many malls and could not decide on what I wanted, I set up an appointment at whitefire jewelry. I have read many reviews of them and expected no sales pressure. I am glad I went there, Not only they helped me with my budget on how much I can afford, they also offered 1 year interest free financing. I bought an absolutely perfect engagement ring, with a GIA certfied center stone. My...
Very good pricing on my diamond purchase. I shopped online at many stores including bluenile and other
popular ones and I found whitefire carry an identical diamond at a lower price. I could have bought it
directly online and saved some cost as whitefire does charges a stocking fee ( a minimal fee for the big purchase that I was making) for viewing and seeing the diamond before purchase at the ...
I actually met with Joseph back in October but have been busy with work and travel. Writing this review has been in the the back of my mind this whole time because I felt the need to share my very positive experience with Joseph in selecting my fiancee's engagement ring. I can't even imagine taking the "mall tour" again. We received such personal service and the ring presented to my bride-to-b...
Thanks again for all the help with my engagement ring. Ginny and I went out to Enchanted Rock outside Fredericksburg TX. We climbed to the top, found a quiet spot, I got down on one knee... and she said yes.
Thanks again. You exemplify what everyone should look for in a jeweler. I could not be happier.
Have a great day.
Chris Glancy- Austin, TX
My fiance and I had been looking to trade in some heirloom jewelry and use some of the stones to create her new engagement ring. After visiting with nemerous jewelry stores and other local jewelers who insisted that we spend double the amount of the trade in value we found Joseph. He was by far the most knowledgeable, professional and down to earth gemoligist that we found. But where he really st...
Just wanted to say thanks for the help and for making the experience of buying an engagement ring enjoyable. After I had already picked up the ring, Ruth wanted to go shopping for settings (she didn't know that I had bought the ring already.) Every store that we went into was very uncomfortable. Some salespeople even blew us off if we told them that we were only interested in the setting and not ...
I sincerely appreciate the time you spent with me evaluating my choices in regard to diamond quality. I never felt any pressure from you, I feel that your advice was sincere and professional, and clearly your professional qualifications are outstanding. I appreciate working with someone that has high professional ethical standards and offers zero sales pressure.
The time you spent evaluating t...
I have worked with the staff for a number of years now, and I have always been impressed with their ability to listen to my needs and desires. I recently got married, and everyone loves our rings. In fact, my wife still gets compliments from strangers about how beautiful her ring is.
WhiteFire is very knowledgeable about the diamond industry, and I trust them with all my diamond purchases.
...
i looked and went to many different places before i settled on white fire , i the reason why i picked white fire is because they didn't just try to sell my a design they took the time to teach me about my diamond and how my diamond is my diaomnd then asked me what i wanted my ring to look like then made me a perfect ring
Joseph,
I would like to thank you personally for eliminating the stress of
shopping for an engagement ring and making it a very rewarding
experience. Your professionalism and quality of products will ensure
that I return to White Fire Diamonds & Fine Jewelry for future
purchases.
Tommy - Austin,TX
Thank you so much for your help in helping us select my diamond anniversary ring. It has been a real pleasure working with you, and your role has been pivotal. Al and I spent many hours going into various jewelry shops and countless jewelry exchanges in the Diamond District of NYC. You have no idea how many times we were bombarded by high pressure salespeople telling us they know exactly what we'...
We?ve been buying expensive jewelry for years, but I never knew what a wonderful experience it could be until we met Joseph of WhiteFire Diamonds. Every purchasing session is educational and informative; customer service is top notch; and I know when I leave that I am getting the most for the amount we are spending. When my wife had trouble with the diamond of a necklace sitting correctly, Jose...
I personally experienced the utmost pleasurable, professional, courteous transaction with Joseph of white fire jewelry. His knowledge and expertise put me at ease while coordinating my business deal. I will and have recommended white fire jewelry to friends and family.
Cindy V.- Austin, TX
The setting I bought from Joseph at Whitefire was exactly what I had looked everywhere to find. The only problem was that it didn't appear to come in the finish that I needed. No problem for the folks at Whitefire- they ordered the setting and put the satin finish I was looking for on the ring themselves. It ended up perfect! Joseph spent more time on the phone with me answering questions and ge...
Buying jewelry is not an easy thing. All women love diamonds, and I wanted a piece of jewelry that BLINGS. Well, I got what I wanted! I LOVE my jewelry and I can honestly say, I received the BEST customer service you can ask for. I was never pushed or persuaded to buy a specific piece. I was shown several items that were in my price range. So, to sum it up ? I AM A HAPPY CAMPER!
Joseph, I have been wanting to send you this email for quite some time. Sorry for the delay. You know how I was so worried about my diamond not showing enough colors. Well, I have got to tell you, it's beautiful. There are so many colors coming from this diamond. I really love it and am enjoying it everyday. It seems to be getting smaller but then I look at my original stone and notice the size d...
In late spring my son in law brought back a number of rubies from
Afghanistan. I was thrilled to receive two large stones, one for a ring and
one for a drop, as well as two smaller stones for earrings. The rubies were
not extremely high quality, just a beautiful color and it was great to have
been remembered by my son-in-law. I took the stones to White Fire Jewelry,
they appraised the stones...
I received excellent customer service from Joseph at Whitefire. He really listens to what you are looking for, and takes into consideration your budget. He created a stunning engagement ring for me after my original set was stolen. He worked extremely hard to ensure he found a center stone that met my criteria within my budget. He worked with me on the setting I was considering having made an...
I recently received a call from one of my very good friends I grew up with. She indicated to me that she was blown away by the expert knowledge of the staff at White fire diamonds. She shopped many of the local retailers in her area (Houston, TX) and just was not pleased with all the so called "designer name" styles. She said they all seemed to look alike and there wasn't really any originality t...
My fiance and I went to local jewelry stores like typical couples in the market for a special diamond ring. We weren't really blown away by anything we saw at those places - especially the prices. From a simple web search, we found Whitefire and decided to give it a try. She and I went to Whitefire only knowing what we had learned from hard-core mall-type jewelry salespersons, so we went in a ...
Joseph is very customer service oriented and timely with appointments. There were many wonderful designs to choose from and the final product exceeded my expectations.
My fiance bought the diamond for my engagement ring from Joseph at WhiteFire Diamond after a friend who had used Joseph for his fiance's ring recommended him to us. We actually live in Dallas, and after talking to several Dallas jewelers, my fiance called Joseph just to get a price comparison. It ended up that Joseph was able to get him a better diamond at a lower price. Joseph then sent the diam...
This was my first diamond/engagement ring buying experience. White Fire was the first place I looked and the only place I would recommend to my friends and family. The service was genuine, timely and above all else, honest. We had seen a ring that we absolutely loved and wanted something like it with a few modifications. The finished product was exactly what we wanted. Highly recommended!
The people at White Fire helped my fiance to design an absolutely beautiful engagement ring! My fiance spoke very highly of the owner, the selection, and the personalized assistance. We will definitely be going back for our wedding sets, maintenance, and other fine jewelry!
I really enjoyed my experience working with the folks at Whitefire Jewelry. They're knowledgeable, honest, friendly, and most importantly for me..patient! When shopping for my fiancee's engagement ring, this was the only place where I didn't feel like I was tricked or pressured at all. They really made me feel like a valued customer. Not to mention, their selection of wholesale diamonds is, i...
Just wanted to say "thanks" again. Your products are far superior to
pretty much any other shop in town, and you are super informative. It
was a great experience, a lasting one, and I look forward to being able
to do business with you in the future. Thank so much.
My husband and I bought a wedding ring from Whitefire jewelry. The service was very personalized and Mr. Villarreal was very helpful in our decision process. The ring is beautiful and I am very happy with the overall experience. My husband and I shopped around for rings of the same quality and size at Gordon's, Zales, and other chain stores. These prices did not even compare to Mr. Villarreal...
I would highly recomend anyone wanting jewelry to visit Joseph. He helped me design both an engagement ring and wedding band which both turned out perfect. His knowledge and easy going personality made my buying experience a breeze. There is a reason why so many people recommend Whitefire Jewelry!
My boyfriend got my beautiful engagement ring from Whitefire jewelry. We had the get the ring re-sized, and Mr. Villarreal was incredibly helpful and personable. Overall I had an excellent experience with Whitefire and would enthusiastically recommend them to others.
The staff at Whitefire is phenomenal. They helped me create a piece of jewelry that I truly enjoy wearing. I was never told what I wanted was impossible...I told them what I wanted and they gave me a number of options to select from. The turnaround time for the pendant we created was faster than I had anticipated. When I saw the finished product, I couldn't have been more pleased. I have no ...
A friend told me about whitefire, but I needed ring very fast. Made apt. and found ring I was looking for. Joseph got the ring in less than a week for our 10 year anniversary. Highly recomend his service, he took me through the whole buying process. This is the first real expensive ring I have ever bought, and the price was very very good. I will always recomend his services to my friends in...
Whitefire has some of the most exquisite pieces of diamond jewelry i have ever seen. They offer an exclusive collection of dazzling diamonds and alluring wedding rings of unique characteristics. Apart from making a style statement, they provide the right worth and value for money. They are luxurious and at the same time very very elegant. Whitefire put an end to my search for fine diamond jewelry...
I bought the engagement ring at Whitefire. After comparing with several other options in Austin, Joseph at Whitefire made me feel by far the most confident. He was great in educating me about rings, his prices are MUCH better than in most storefront shops in town, and the entire buying experience was great.
There was no pressure at any time, and he was always super reliable when he gave me price...
i do not know anything about jewels or diamonds, nor do i pretend to. joseph at whitefire was extremely helpful in educating us on gems and jewelery, and also very sympathetic to our financial situation (we are not wealthy by any stretch of the imagination). we made an appointment with joseph, and for absolutely no obligation, he gave us an hour of his time to help us decide what would be right...
I have been purchasing jewelry from whitefire for the last few years and never had a chance
to submit a review for them. This is not a review about one single purchase but an experience of
multiple years. The friendly staff, non-pushy attitude, reasonably priced without sacrificing the
quality are all the plus points. I have recommended many of my friends to visit them by word of mouth
and i...
Run by very warm, caring people. They will take the time to talk with you to find out what exactly you want. The packing of the items you buy is beautiful and very special.
Whitefire staff were very professional, creative, and timely with my husband and myself about creating a beautifully crafted custom wedding band. The service was amazing--everyone was so quick to answer my questions in a professional and friendly manner and the ring surpassed my expectations. I would highly recommended Whitefire to anyone looking to have custom jewelry designed!
they were very friendly and convenient. They met our needs and the customer service was wonderful. this was a great experience.
The first time I dealt with Joseph was a couple of years ago. I didn?t purchase anything from him and he still gave me the great service, as if I purchase with him before. Joseph taught me what to look for and explain the qualities of a good Diamond. He answered all the questions regarding Diamonds and other precious stones. He was VERY patient with me.
When considering an engagement ring I wen...
Joseph had the inventory, customer service, and fair pricing that I was looking for. It was so easy to purchase a high quality diamond engagement ring and wedding bands! I wish I had started working with Joseph prior to wasting so much time at "storefront" shops. Lesson learned... I expect to begin and end my future shopping with Joseph at Whitefire.
You would have to pay for this kind of service at Tiffany's. As soon as you walk in the staff is warm and welcoming and Joseph gets straight to business. You are more than welcomed to drinks and snacks while discussing gems, diamonds, rings, etc with Joseph. It is all complimentary! You are never made to feel that you couldn't understand the intricacies of purchasing the perfect engagement ri...
I just purchased a diamond for our 30th anniversary from Whitefire Diamonds, and Joseph's personal service was excellent. It is a good feeling to walk away with a major purchase with the feeling that you are not just another customer, but a client that has been given respect, listened to and accomodated. I will certainly return to Whitefire, and will recommend it to my friends and family.
Don't be intimidated by Whitefire's appointment-only hours. Joseph is fabulous to work with - even if you're not planning on spending much money, like my fiance and I. All we needed was to reset a diamond we already owned into a new ring - but we were treated like millionaires. Joseph respected our opinions, helped my fiance get a better idea of what he wanted in his wedding band, and didn't p...
I only had 1 1/2 hours to buy my girlfriend a B-day gift, stop at HEB, wash dishes, and take a shower before she got home ON her birthday. I did a search on the net, and found great reviews about WhiteFire, and off I went. I didn't catch the fact that they were by appointment only, but given my desperate state, Joseph hooked me up. The service was excellent!!! He bailed me out big time. With...
That is what Priscilla said when I presented her with the engagement ring I purchased from White Fire. Perfect also describes my experience in working with Joseph on selecting the ring. I visited several retail shops before coming to WhiteFire, and none even had the type stone I wanted. They were able to immediately provide EXACTLY what I was looking for and at a price that worked within my bud...
I have worked with the staff for a number of years now, and I have always been impressed with their ability to listen to my needs and desires. I recently got married, and everyone loves our rings. In fact, my wife still gets compliments from strangers about how beautiful her ring is.
WhiteFire is very knowledgeable about the diamond industry, and I trust them with all my diamond purchases.

Hello Joseph,
Danny brought home the ruby earrings that you designed for me last night. They are truly spectacular! I just want you to know that I think you really out did yourself on the design! I love the cabochon rubies and the diamond accents add just the right touch! The earrings hang perfectly, they are substantial, yet they are not heavy on my earlobe! :) The rubies on the earrings ma...
My fiance and I had had some difficulty in finding a service in town that could custom design our engagement ring, but after two dissapointing visits to other stores we discovered that the third time is certainly a charm. From the very beginning, our experience working with Joseph to find this ring was enjoyable, productive, and stress free. He was very supportive of our wish to go with somethi...
Our company traditionally have done white elephant gifts at christmas. This past year our company did so well, we decided to give all our employees nice jewelry gifts. We located whitefire jewelry on the internet and we narrowed our purchase to "pearl bracelets". After a breif email exchanged, whitefire was able to give us a quantity discount on the bracelets we chose. Not only the product was de...
Me and my husband of 11 years were in the market for a unique anniversary gift and we had a hard time finding something in town to fit our taste. We went to White Fire and picked from their selection of custom jewelry. I love the idea of having something that nobody else will ever have. I highly recomment White Fire for all of your jewelry needs, I even had some appraisals done that I was putt...
My husband and I where looking for a wedding ring and found that WhiteFire was the place to go. We told them what we were looking for and before we knew it I was wearing a gorgeous ring. They where extremely professional and answered all our questions. We will defiantly go back for another purchase.
My husband and I recently celebrated a wedding anniversary in Hawaii. I wanted to surprise him with a new wedding band. After researching my options I decided to visit Whitefire Diamonds online. I was very impressed with the content of the website and how user friendly it was. After purchasing my ring online I promptly received an email from Joseph detailing my purchase. Because this was a surpri...
My husband recently bought an engagement ring from Joseph and we were very satisfied with their service and their promptness in delivering our ring to us. The ring was so beautiful an breath taking. We will only go to Joseph for jewelry because we were very happy with everything. Thank you Joseph.
I went to see Joseph at Whitefire Jewelry for a gift for a special someone recently. I didn't know what to expect at first ,but I found thier prices to be very reasonable more affordable then some others places here around the Austin area. The selection was great and the service was excellent. I was treated very fairly and was toatally satisfied with my selection. As for my special someone....
I bought a diamond necklace for my mother for her 70th birthday from Joseph. It is a very elegant design with 40 small diamonds. This is actually from the estate jewelry collection at whitefirejewelry and was worth over 8000 dollars. But I was able to get a very good price from Joseph and needless to say both my mother and I are very happy with the purchase. I highly recommend this store to all m...
