Wheat Jewelers

Thank you Wheat Jewelers for our incredible wedding rings! Both of our rings were custom made and impeccable so. They are gorgeous and exactly what we wanted. We worked most closely with Kevin who clearly loves his craft and his customers.
I was especially grateful for time and energy he spent with me and designing my ring. We live in NYC and did the process almost entirely through emails and phone calls. My ring was tricky as I was battling several metal allergies and needed to have my heirloom diamonds from the original engagement ring reset into a custom made, allergy free metal. It was no piece of cake, ladies and gentlemen! He was patient and helpful every step of the way (he even took the time to chat with me while on his family vacation when a new allergy emerged half way through the process!).
We couldn’t be more please or recommend Wheat Jewelers more highly!
Don’t over think it. Go to Wheats.

If you want a ring altered, DO NOT GO HERE. The jewelry technician won’t listen to your requests. My boyfriend got me a promise ring with a cursive engraving on the inside of our anniversary. The ring was a little too big, so I went to Wheat to get it sized. I told the man specifically to not cut through the engraving and he seemed a little annoyed to go through the «extra work» to not ruin the engraving, however, he definitely got the message not to ruin it. I got a call later that said that they had cut through the engraving and they would engrave it again free of charge. When I got the ring back, it was no longer my beautiful cursive engraving. It looked like a caveman engraved it. My engineer dad could do a better job. If I could give this place zero stars, I would. They ruined my special ring and they seemed not to care at all.

We bought my custom engagement ring here about 4 years ago. Just recently one of the prongs broke slightly around the diamond and I was afraid the diamond would come loose. We moved to the Novi area and Jewelers around us were quoting us around $ 400 to fix it. We called Wheat, stopped in, and they fixed it for us right then, free of charge. They’re great people to work with! Not pushy at all and always really helpful.

If I could give Wheat Jewelers more stars, I would! We recently got engaged, and my fiancé proposed with my grandmother’s diamond engagement ring and wedding band, which were soldered together. We wanted to take the diamonds and the silver from the band and have it recreated into an engagement ring that is mine, but uses my grandmother’s diamonds.
I was apprehensive to take the ring anywhere and let someone work on it since it’s such an heirloom piece. From the minute we walked into Wheat’s, I was absolutely comfortable with them. Kevin Wheat, the owner, came out and talked to us and never did I feel like he was trying to sell us something we didn’t want or upcharge us or anything the like that. The man is a designer! He immediately won my engineer-​Fiancé over when he took us into his office and started drawing up designs on Auto Cad.
The best, and most reassuring, part was that we were able to see a wax model of the ring before he melted it down and recreated it. Everything was timely and professional, and I wouldn’t change a thing about our experience with Wheat’s. We will absolutely be going back for my fiancé’s wedding band and also to have Kevin create my wedding band from my other’s grandmother’s diamonds. Don’t shop for fine jewelry anywhere else!

Anyone to work with the team at Wheat Jewelers won’t be disappointed!
Wheat Jewelers has become my family’s jeweler over the years. They have always been amazing in helping us to celebrate the big moments in our lives. Since I haven’t lived in the Lansing area for several years, when the time came for my engagement, I didn’t think I would end up with a ring from Wheat. Much to my surprise when my boyfriend popped the question, my BEAUTIFUL ring was presented in the classic ivory box from Wheat. I was stunned… for more reasons that one! How did my boyfriend get a ring in Michigan? We live in Boston! Turns out that he had been working with Archie for months, custom designing a ring specifically for me, and carefully working to deliver the package while I was out of town on a business trip. I can’t begin to describe how special it was that I was able to keep our family tradition going with my very own wheat creation. The fact that the team at Wheat did so much to help my fiancé make it happen, was truly above and beyond.

Prior to purchasing a ring, my then girlfriend and I, shopped a few different jewelers and ended up settling on Wheat. We were in a unique position as she (my girlfriend) had a diamond that was passed down from her grandmother that we wished to have set in her ring.
We worked with a few people there, but for the most part it was Archie and his professionalism that made us decide to stick with Wheat. He was incredibly helpful and patient as we spent a lot of time looking at bands and went in a couple times to confirm the one we liked was the ‘right’ one.
Two days before the ring was scheduled to come in I took them the diamond. I got a call from the owner, Kevin Wheat, once the setting was complete and the ring was ready to go.
Archie also gave us an appraisal on the diamond itself and the entire ring in order for us to add it to our insurance.
They were incredibly helpful and I would recommend them for absolutely anything. I know my fiancé and I will be going there for our wedding bands and they will most certainly be our first stop for any jewelry purchase in the future.

If I could give negative stars I would.
This all happened years ago, but it still makes me incredibly angry and I think about it more often than is healthy because THEY DESTROYED MY WEDDING AND ENGAGEMENT RINGS and I have to live the rest of my life with that. I hate Wheat Jewelers with every ounce of my soul.
On our honeymoon in 2005 I had knocked my engagement ring and one of the prongs holding the diamond was damaged. When we returned I took it in to Wheat to be repaired and also to have my engagement (single princess cut stone with gold baguettes on either side) and wedding ring (channel set diamonds ½ way around the band) soldered together. I explained what I wanted and left my rings there with assurances that it would be done, it was all pretty standard.
When I returned to pick them up things were all wrong. The prong had been fixed (really shoddy job resulting in another jeweler telling me it wasn’t safe to wear because the diamond would likely fall out — the prong is visibly crooked). That was bad in itself, but the worst part was that the guy soldered my rings together UNCENTERED. My wedding ring’s diamonds were not centered on the diamonds of my engagement ring, not just a bit off, but off by half a centimeter.
I realized this is the parking lot and took the rings back in to be fixed.
When I picked them up the next time they had been cut apart, resulting in both bands being hacked up with solder hap-​hazardly smeared along them. Being a somewhat meek person I just left and cried over it later. Yes, I paid for them to do this. No, I wasn’t even offered a discount or an apology for the poor work.
8 years later they’re still like that. They’re sitting in my jewelry box because I can’t afford to have another jeweler essentially melt them down and make them again from scratch and at this point, the 3 jewelers who have seen them since Wheat touched them have all told me it was the worst work they’ve ever seen. Thanks Wheat Jewelers, you guys suck.
