Susan's Shop Selections

Knowledgable staff and very helpful to someone new to purchasing fine jewelry. Dan was very nice and made the whole process easy, couldn't ask for a better experience!

Came here to get an appraisal and ultimately sell some sterling silver. Appraiser and other staff were so kind, thorough, and fair. Would definitely take other heirlooms here. They also have a super interesting display of items from the Civil War, when the Cowardin home was used as a hospital for both sides.

I had a garnet ring repaired. I had loss a stone and it was replaced and the ring looked like new.

Great customer service! Reasonable prices and they made a few minor repairs without charging me (while other jewelers had given me quotes for the repair). I bought a free form ring with some stones that they set in place for me. I highly recommend Cowardins and will be back in the future!

Pros: The store has a great selection of jewelry with birthstone options as well. The employees are also friendly and they're taking Covid-19 seriously. Cons: I went for a diamond resetting and asked for a size 5 solitaire band... They told me it would take a week. 2.5 weeks later when it was ready, I went in to pick it up and it was a size 6. I know I wouldn't have said size 6 for the particular finger I want the ring for. Now after 2.5 weeks, I have to wait again while they resize the ring. Which is not ideal because they have to cut down my ring instead of having the right size to begin with. This is an heirloom diamond and is very special to my family... I originally went to Cowardin's because of their great reviews... now I wish I had looked into other places to get my diamond reset.

I have had several items of jewelry repaired at the store and they have done an outstanding job. They are extremely friendly and highly professional. I worked in the jewelry industry for several years so my standards for professionalism from a jewelry store are very high, and this store exceeds my expectations.

I ve been dealing with Cowardin s for about 20 years and they are the only jewelry store I have ever dealt with. They are knowledgeable, have a wonderful staff and the repair shop is top of the line.

I took my wedding band to be resized to a company that I trust. My ring is two-toned with a pattern. Their work is flawless. The services is always friendly. They have beautiful jewelry and are as "local" as it gets in Richmond.

Staff is very courteous. Price for jewelry repair is great compared to some other jewelry stores in the area. Repair was done very quickly.

Very fair pricing for a ring resize and excellent work.

Cowardin's bought my diamond wedding ring (I switched to a simpler ring) for a price that was three times more than another jeweler. The service was excellent. Highly recommended!

I recently purchased a Rolex from Cowardin's. Dan sold the watch to me. He explained all the features of the watch. I took it back for something very minor and he assisted me with the minor problem. He was not high pressure and treated me like I was his only customer. I highly recommend this store to anyone .

My husband bought my engagement ring 48 years ago! After all that time, my prongs needed adjusting...and yes Cowardin jewelers fixed the ring at no charge! Who does that??? Cowardin s will always be Richmond s best for over 100 years! Thank you!

Family owned and operated, wonderful customer service, great selections. They will educate you and give you a informational sheet regarding the stones.

Great place. They've been around forever and they stand behind their products. Service is top notch.

This store has very bad customer service. I went on a Saturday (mid day, not when they were just opening or about to close), there were 3 employees in the store and when I walked in, they all looked up from their work at me, and then looked More

Everyone at Cowardin's is a pleasure to work with. They have an amazing selection on jewelry and will take great care of you! My Diamond came from them and it is beautiful. They just resized it and did a fantastic job!

The store has an amazing selection and prices are surprisingly very affordable.

It's always such a pleasure walking into Cowardin's Jewelers...no "pushy" salespeople, just friendly, super-accommodative jewelry professionals. The selection and quality is beyond compare and they even offer jewelry repair (which is hard to find elsewhere). Stop by the next time you are looking for something special!

Cowardin's is a Richmond treasure! The service is wonderful, the jewelry is beautiful, and the knowledge of the staff is superior. We have returned again and again over the years. They have a wonderful selection of gifts and their heirloom pieces are just lovely. It's important to us to shop local and Cowardin's has been a family owned business for many, many years. We highly recommend their services to everyone looking for a quality experience.

They are the best jewelry store. And customer service is great.

Cowardens ALWAYS takes care of us - regardless of our needs! Bigger purchases as well as small, repairs, cleanings, education & information. Also always a patient & courteous staff, as well as the owners, are available to answer any & all questions. We couldn't be happier with services they offer!

Cowardin Jewelers provides excellent customer service and knowledge

I went in to Cowardin s to look at one thing and bought something totally different thanks to Dan.... he was very welcoming and knowledgeable. Dan saw me looking at curtain items and kindly made suggestions which ended up being a sell for him. Dan was not pushy which I appreciate, but said just enough to help me with my decision making and I m glad he did! If you re in the market for some fine Jewelry or just in the neighborhood I suggest you stop by Cowardin s and ask for Dan!

Great service! They repaired a ring that the stone had fallen out of while I waited.

I have had work done and I was very satisfied with there work I had my wedding ring prongs replaced and a necklace jump ring repair and a anklet done, plus watch batteries replaced so I m very pleased with what they have done Mrs Val Kinney

customer service is out of this world! they are local and family owned. I came in the store one day while out running errands and I looked a mess, hair all over the place, yoga pants; they treated me as if I was the Queen of Richmond! CUSTOMER FOR LIFE

I took my 21 year old engagement ring and wedding band to Cowardins to be sized down due to recent significant weight loss. Jeweler advised me that sizing down too many sizes could affect the integrity of the setting so we agreed on what size would work for me and for the design integrity. Am thrilled with result. Rings fit great again, are comfortable and secure, and restored to their original beauty. Price was also very reasonable. Have always been happy with service and repairs at Cowardins which is why i have been a customer for 40+ years. Thank you Cowardins for taking care of my jewelry needs all these years. Am a customer for life!

Cowardin's is the only jewelry store I would trust without doing any research.

Although the staff is cordial and supportive, they are very expensive. 3500.00 dollars for 6 ten point diamonds adding up to 1/2 carat and an 18k gold ring with no center stone is a bit too pricey for us. Can you imagine what this ring would have cost if it had a center stone? We recommend you shop somewhere else if you want to pay a normal price for jewelry.

I love their estate jewelry. They have an excellent selection of everything and they are the best at repairs. They can fix or adjust anything and the turnaround time is amazing. The customer service is fantastic. I also love that they are a local and family owned business.

Not only was my repair work excellent, it was reasonably priced and I received my jewelry back within the week!

I had repair work done and a custom pendant made. Necklace was made to exact specifications.. Thank you Susan.

Best jeweler in RVA. Our family have been customers for 3 generations, going on 4. Top quality products and service.

I purchased a beautiful watch from Cowardin's. I'm out of state and the transaction was smooth. Very professional, excellent customer service I received from Dan. The watch I purchased was in excellent condition, and as the appraiser stated in mint condition, even though it's a used piece. I was notified of shipping instructions, all documentation pertaining to watch was provided. I will definitely purchase again from Cowardin's.

Cowardin s does high quality work in a professional and attentive atmosphere. I ve never been anything but fully satisfied with the service I receive here. Highly recommend this jeweler s quality and service!

I had a ring sized and re-engraved and Cowardin's did a GREAT job! The charges were very reasonable and the work was beautifully done and quick! Cowardin's is my new favorite jeweler!

Cowardins jewlers, where do I start? My wife and I went to cowardins jewelers looking for earrings, the sales man was very nice and accommodating and non judgmental. My wife absolutely loved this set of earrings and thru Mr cowrdin I was able to purchase these earrings Thank you all for making my shopping experience memorable! Sincerely yours B Clark

Had my wedding band resized. They did a great job and got it to me much quicker than they originally estimated. The ring fits perfectly and I see no evidence of it being resized. Would highly recommend.

Best jeweler in Richmond. Whether you want new or repair or redesign using something old. Go see Taylor!

I would not recommend this place if you're trying to sell loose gem stones. They only take "certain ones" and the person I spoke to with didn't even bother opening the other little bags I had showed him.

JUST LEFT THE COWARDIN JEWELERS ON BROAD WORST SREVICE EVER LOOKING FOR A RING FOR MARIAN TOLD THEM WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR AND THEY TOLD ME TO CV OME BACK WHEN I KNOW WHAT IM LOOKING FOR ? I DIDNT GET THAT ! SEEMS AS IF THEY WERE NERVOUS . ???????? WORST PLACE EVER I WAS READY TO BUY TODAY

Needed to have my ring resized. They were very prompt and reasonably priced.

Great service today on my old Swiss Army watch. Thanks!

Customer service has consistently been excellent at Cowardin s. Whether I ve needed repair work, changing watch batteries, or purchasing a piece of jewelry, I have been completely confident I ve been fairly as well as professionally taken care of through the process.

Cowardin s is a family owned and operated jeweler that has been around Richmond for a very long time. When I need something jewelry related, I go to Cowardin s. In recent years, I have used them to fix my Tag watch, repair chains and bracelets as well as customize a chain for a charm bracelet necklace. They are very knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend Cowardin s for good quality and a fair price.

They have always gone out of their way to make me happy. Their service and repair team always cleans and polishes my wife s jewelry to perfection. It s a great family owned business.

Friendly humble staff. Always quick and clean with their service and equally quick with a joke! Only good things to say.

I purchased an engagement ring and wedding band from Cowardin's, and couldn't be happier. Dan Grantham did such a wonderful job helping me find a beautiful set, that is so unique. I highly recommend Cowardin's and Dan Grantham if you are in search of a memorable piece of jewelry.

I had a broken necklace. They were very helpful and polite. I thought the price to fix it was very reasonable. It was a quick turn around if a week. I have been to other jewelers in Richmond that appeared snooty and as I wasn t of their demographic. I did not feel that way at all at Cowardins. I don t buy much jewelry but I will definitely be back.

I was told one thing on the phone. Drove 40 minutes to be told the opposite. Sleazy douches.
