Thomas M Schneider

Tom has the largest selection of gemstones in San Diego. I needed to match a round purple sapphire and he had it in several sizes. Amazing.
He also offers stone cutting at a reasonable price. He travels around the world and buys directly from the source. This gives me confidence when I need to find conflict free gemstones.

Recently I asked a friend of mine who works at Christie’s Auction House to recommend a good gemstone dealer. She told me go to Thomas M. Schneider in San Diego;I am glad I took her advice They are definitely some of the smartest people in the gemstone industry. If its a rare gemstone, specimen, or a flawless sapphire you need, they will deliver. Everything I have bought from them has increased in value in a short time. Their prices are more than reasonable when compared to other high quality dealers.

Not the cheapest but definitely the best variety and quality. If you want to have a stunning piece of jewelry made for you this is the place to get your stones. The only reason not 5 stars is because of the high prices.

I looked all over to find a place to make a hole on a stone I had bought. Finally I found out about the jewelry building in Downtown San Diego and after a quick search got to Thomas M. Schneider Jewelry.
The work is high ended as well the price. I paid $ 15 for the hole. The only thing I didn’t like was the time it took to be done. I dropped the stone on September 26 and the lady who helped told me it would be done next Monday (which I thought was too long already, and after calling they told me that it only would be ready on Wednesday — a week) Maybe because they don’t have a lot of requests like mine they waited to gather more, I don’t know, just felt like it was a long time to have it done. The work however, is very good, so it sort of made up for the long wait.
