Vintage Diamond Engagement Ring

My wedding ring completely split at the base and also needed to solder my bands together so my husband recommended this place. The process was super easy and Colleen helped me out. She pointed out things about my ring that I didn’t even know was going on (diamond loose, bent parts) She was super nice and professional. She quoted what it will probably cost and in the end it was in that ball park. Took about two weeks to fix and I couldn’t be happier with the result. They also cleaned it and looks SO much better!

Matt is awesome to work with. My fiance and I shopped for rings together and Matt helped my dream come to life. I told him what I had in mind and he made it a reality. He worked within our budget and presented us with plenty of options and was never pushy. I am so happy and I think the ring speaks for itself.

This establishment was very professional and polite in all exchanges that we participated in! I emailed this jeweler to ask if they could verify the gemstones in an engagement ring of mine. (Gemvara shut their doors before I could verify the legitimacy of the stones. They also never sent me "appraisal" paperwork verifying the legitimacy of the stones) Alex Wallace, an appraiser, responded to my email rather promptly and established a date when I could come by with my ring. Since I work long hours my fiance had to go in my stead, to which he graciously accepted! Long story short, he verified my ring did indeed have Tanzanite and Moissanite stones. Even if my fiance and I never bought a single jewelry piece from this establishment, the fact he took time out of his day to verify such a minor task meant the world to us! I feel at peace knowing my gemstones are not only beautiful, but that they're legitimate. We both are happy we weren't ripped off. We're "young" and this is our first engagement in our lives! So this may not mean much to some, but for us this meant everything. He's happy he got me the real deal, and I'm just happy knowing what they truly are. :) Thank you for taking time out of your day for us smaller people, Alex! We truly appreciate it.

I went in to talk with Coleen 10 months or so ago about purchasing my first Rolex. She was incredible! Took the time to answer all my questions about the process of getting exactly what I wanted. She took down my info, put the order in and said it could be 2 months or two years. Today, I walked out with my incredible, beautiful new Rolex. Every detail exactly as I wanted it. 10/10 service, will recommend to any and all who will listen. Thanks Coleen!

Matt is an exceptional jeweler, and an even more remarkable individual. From the moment you walk in, he creates a welcoming atmosphere and takes the time to truly listen to what matters most to you. His approach is thoughtful and consultative—never pressuring or making you feel obligated to make a purchase. I highly recommend Matt to anyone seeking exquisite jewelry or a fine timepiece. His expertise and integrity set him apart in the industry.

Merkley Kendrick is the only place I'm going to do business with in the state of Kentucky when it comes to my jewelry. Shannon S. was my sales associate and the customer service I received was fresh and friendly as well as knowledgeable and understanding as to what my needs were and how they could be met. I had taken my ring to Shane and co earlier in the week and they quoted me 700$ to do less work then Merkley. I was only charged $279.00 to get my ring resized as well as maintenance on the tips. I'm sold on this place! Not only did they take care of the maintenance needs I had regarding my ring Shannon assisted me with another gift item I was looking for. I gave her a price range as well as a brief description of what I was trying to to find and then took off. The next day she had already located the perfect gift for my partner! Thanks again Merkley crew! 😁🥳😜

Thank you very much, Matt, for your exceptional help in purchasing my wife's favorite watch as a gift. Your friendly demeanor and professional approach made the process seamless, especially given the short time frame. I truly appreciate how you took the time to understand my needs and guided me to the perfect choice. The experience was enjoyable, and your expertise shone through. I highly recommend Merkley Kendrick Jewelers for anyone looking for outstanding service and beautiful jewelry

My partner and I got permanent jewelry here and I had no idea it would be such a fun, great experience! The amount of care that went into the placement and the way she attached the bracelet was so perfect and considerate. She was so sweet and great to talk to and made the whole experience even better! Also every person we ended up talking to was so nice! We intend on getting our wedding bands there because of how our experience went with the permanent jewelry.The selection of antique gold wedding rings are amazing too! Can’t wait to go back.

I needed a piece of jewelry sized quickly. The staff at Merkley were wonderful to work with and had the jewelry fixed and polished early! The ring looks amazing. I worked with Elias and he was kind and very helpful. I’ll be working with Merkley for all my future needs and purchases.

Merkley Kendrick has a tasteful jewelry selection and their staff is experienced, attentive, and very friendly. They enjoy custom work. They are my go to for fine jewelry in Louisville, and do have various price points.

I have never been to anywhere other than Kays, etc. to purchase jewelry. I have a ring, that is very precious to me, that needed repair, a chunk of the band broke out. I have little to no trust for any pawn shop that offers repairs so I decided to try what I consider an actual "jeweler". I am so impressed with the quality of the repair! They even made the band thicker to ensure the repair lasts. Matt was my consultant and he was very helpful and down to earth. I was very nervous as I've never stepped foot in such a bougie establishment, but he absolutely made the process as easy as pie and I felt like I belonged. I have already recommended them to several friends and family! Don't waste your time elsewhere, go straight to Merkley Kendrick, it is absolutely worth the drive to St. Matthew's! Above and beyond quality and customer service!

Brian and his team at Merkley Kendrick Jewelers are incredible. They are the only ones in town I trust. They are knowledgeable, professional, and always do everything they can to help me find what I am looking for. I truly enjoy working with them, and cannot say enough about their team.

I was looking for a little help with a watch and after a quick Google search Merkley Kendrick popped up. Of course they would, but I didn't know that. I went there needing a little guidance for my watch. They were accommodating and professional. I had no idea the quality of watches they have available. If you are looking for a hard to find, quality watch, I would start with Merkley Kendrick.

I visited Merkley Kendrick last week looking for something very specific that I knew would be challenging to find. I had the good fortune of meeting Colleen who was extremely knowledgeable, an absolute joy to work with, and quite the miracle worker! Within two days I walked out of there with exactly what I wanted. The entire experience far exceeded my expectations and I can’t recommend Colleen and Merkley Kendrick enough.

A great and expert team when it comes to all your jewelry needs! Especially when you need a gem for those most defining moments in your life or the recipient's! MK IS 2nd to none. You WON'T be dissapointed!

I visited the store a few weeks ago, and had the pleasure of working with Shannon. She was extremely professional and quickly understood my needs. Shannon did an excellent job redesigning several of my pieces, and I receive compliments every time I wear them!

Best jewelers in town! I recently brought a diamond ring in for appraisal and repairs. I am so pleased with the service I received—trustworthy, knowledgeable, and friendly. Merkley Kendrick’s does not disappoint!

There are simply no words to express our gratitude for the extraordinary service we have received from the staff at Merkley Kendrick Jewelers, specifically Shannon Kelly! Shannon!!! Shannon has not only taken the time to cultivate a relationship with myself but with my entire family. The surprise that you initiated and actually pulled off was a gesture of kindness and thoughtfulness that I will NEVER forget. You now have customers for life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
