Our Clients Say

  • Mark Coleman is a true gentleman. He is very fair about pricing of repairs and replacement policies. Recently, I had 2 older watches which went on the fritz at the same time. I had no timepiece. I brought them in for repairs and, after carefully reviewing the repair history, Mark suggested replacement with a new watch. I agreed. He presented a brand new Citizen wristwatch. I waited for my invoice with a trade in credit. Instead, Mark called it an even swap! I surely came out ahead. I am a very satisfied customer.

  • We've been working with Nelson Coleman Jewelers for a few months after a friend of ours recommended the shop. We've been absolutely thrilled with the unique wedding and engagement ring set I was able to create. Jenna listened attentively and was a huge help with her knowledge and understanding of the process. She made us feel very comfortable with the investment we were making. One of the most exciting parts was hand - selecting a center stone for my engagement ring from several options in the store. It was a great experience all around, and we will definitely be back for future gifts!

  • Our first visit to your Frederick store. Great location. Easy to find. Parking easy. We knew of your outstanding reputation and loved the layout in Frederick. Perfect size for us seniors. Got super professional and welcoming service from Rowan and the manager from Sparks a Hereford Mom and grandmom. In a short 15 minute visit we had a delightful meet and greet! Our daughter loved the earrings for her 39th Birthday. We got a head start on her 40th.

  • My soon to be husband and I came to Nelson Coleman with a tight deadline and pretty specific visions in what we were looking for. We had visited a couple jewelry stores before this, shopped online and everyone was falling short. The minute we stepped into NC it was a completely different experience. Jenna was the first person who welcomed us and was there to help us through the process of finding wedding bands. I have a non traditional engagement ring and wanted something to fit with it and Jenna took the time to go through all of my possible options. We found the perfect option for my band and it is more than I could have ever expected. My fiancé was able to customize his ideal wedding band and have it arrive within a month! It would not have been possible without help from Jenna who truly cared about us finding our ideal wedding bands and not settling for less. Very grateful for all of her help and for Nelson Coleman.

  • It’s always stressful spending money with a new jeweler, but these guys have earned my trust quickly with just a few transactions. I won’t go elsewhere. The other places I’ve been are like Walmart, but Nelson Coleman is like Nordstrom. A very welcoming staff. They’ve done everything perfect every time. Janine and Jenna went way out of their way for me, and charmed the hell out of my girlfriend. I vouch for this store, they come highly recommended.

  • I was on the hunt for a beautiful piece of jewelry with a peridot stone and I fell in love with a gorgeous ring on Nelson's Etsy page. Since I am not in the state, I reached out to Jenna who immediately helped me by sending photos of it on a hand in different positions and lighting. She went above and beyond to give me a true sense of what this ring would look like once it was on my hand. I could tell that she cared more about how I felt than making a sale. We will be buying from this store again and specifically, from Jenna, whose care and thoughtfulness made the experience easy and enjoyable.

  • I have had several pieces of jewelry repaired at Nelson Coleman Jewelers,, and the work was exceptional. Some of the pieces were gifts from my late mother, and I am so appreciative for their beautiful work.

  • A wonderful new addition to Frederick! I have enjoyed the estate pieces and an excellent experience at the John Bradshaw lapidary show. The opal ring I purchased is absolutely divine!
