Jewelry DesignerJewelry StoreJewelry Repair ServiceDiamond Dealer
I have been in the diamond and jewelry business my entire working career, learning the trade the old fashioned way from my father and grandfather. I studied diamonds and colored stones with the Gemological Institute of America, and I've been designing jewelry for over 30 years. In fact, the part of my job that I enjoy the most is helping our clients to design a custom piece of jewelry just for them.

    I highly recommend going here if you're looking for an affordable, high-quality diamond. Everyone in the store is efficient, friendly, and knowledgeable. They helped me get exactly what I wanted and gave me plenty of options to customize my ring. It was a pleasure working with Rose and Komal.

    I had a wonderful experience at Windy City Diamonds working with Nica to have the engagement ring made. I started off ring shopping with my now-fiancée and they fit us in on short notice right before close. I had planned to visit multiple stores but found everything I needed here. From there, we had the diamond selected and I was extremely impressed with the level of service Nica provided. She worked with me on every part of the process of designing the ring and addressed each of my concerns carefully. They are flexible with payment and offer great options for design choices and insurance. I highly recommend asking for Nica and using this business for an engagement ring.

    My engagement ring vs. my 155-lb Cane Corso… and somehow Windy City Diamonds came out on top. After my dog chewed and dented my ring pretty badly, I brought it back fully expecting heartbreak. Instead, I picked it up looking flawless, as if nothing had ever happened. No scratches, no dents, nothing. If your jewelry can survive being attacked by a giant dog and still come back perfect, that says everything you need to know about the quality and craftsmanship here. Incredible work, amazing service, and forever grateful.

    Nica is amazing! She helped my fiancé and I design a custom engagement ring and custom necklace to match it. Her insight on the design was really helpful. She understood our creative vision but prevented us from making certain design choices that we might regret. She also gave very realistic timeline and cost estimates, and worked hard to meet a tight deadline.

    My engagement ring and my toi et moi anniversary ring were both beautifully designed by Shiri at Windy City Diamonds in Chicago. The stone choices are exquisite, and the variety of styles, shapes, and overall quality are absolutely first class. I loved working with Windy City Diamonds so much that my daughter’s engagement ring was also designed by Shiri. Thank you, Windy City Diamonds, for creating such a meaningful and stunning jewelry collection for my family.
