Bario Neal

Quality is not exactly great for the price you pay. Communication between the jeweler and you kind of comes to a slow stop if you should have any issues after you get your item. That’s not so great. My end product has very unprofessional looking, unclean lines and it wasn’t exactly rectified. I’ve seen so much better for less price. Not happy with the result. But they do have inventive designs and I think that’s their winning ticket.

I cannot recommend Bario Neal more highly. This review is for their NY outpost; but it applies equally to their Philadelphia store as well.
My wife and I worked with Bario-​Neal to design a custom engagement ring and then to design our wedding bands.
We are extraordinarily happy with our rings and the service and professionalism of Bario-​Neal.
In particular:
— Spectacular design; very original and beautiful
— The in-​house control of the entire production and design process made us feel like we were included in the creation of our rings and makes our rings feel very special
— They walked us through a lengthy customization of their Asymmetrical Avens Ring. We were able to incorporate some diamonds from one of my family rings and were very thoughtful throughout the design process. I’m not sure that other firms would have allowed us to incorporate heritage stones into our rings
(The final product can be found here:

— Very easy to reach via phone, email and in person; excellent communication and customer service
— Reasonable turnaround and pricing
— Overall very easy to work with; smart talented gifted and hard-​working professionals
I recommend Bario Neal as the source for interesting and beautiful engagement rings and wedding bands.

The customer service was great — the people were very nice and knowledgeable. My fiancée and I ordered our wedding bands from them and they were able to rush the order and send it to us on time! However, I opened up the package and there was a sizable scratch on my matte finish ring which is quite noticeable. I know rings will get scratched eventually but was hoping that a new one from such a reputable company would not have any…

I scheduled an appointment here in June of 2013 after receiving a recommendation from a friend and looking online at their collection. I was looking for an engagement ring, but hadn’t a clue about anything really. I was pretty clueless, doing this solo. The showroom was just coming together, but I instantly felt this amazing sense of being in the right place. Anna Bario was so incredibly welcome and generous with her time and explanations. I loved the simple but elegant designs… especially the more organic looking pieces.. I wasn’t event thinking that I would buy something that day — and there was certainly no pressure to do so, but I couldn’t resist. Anna helped me to put together an Aira ring with a blue sapphire set in platinum. It came out stunningly beautiful… My fiancé was so happy with it, and encouraged by my experience, that we returned later to buy our wedding bands as well. This time Elyse helped us out and again, super helpful, patient, and wonderfully supportive through the whole process. We had to visit a few times to zero in on the right fit, but they helped us out until everything was perfect. I can’t recommend this company enough — we keep sending our friends their way. The have a unique style, with fair pricing, and super high standards for what they sell and how they source.
Enjoy!

Bario Neal was everything we were looking for when choosing an engagement ring. We knew we wanted something unique that was non-​conflict. Each ring is custom made and the materials are ethically sourced. Initially, I was intimidated at the buying process, but this was very easy. Anna helped guide us through the choices, was very patient, and extremely knowledgeable. At no time did I ever feel pressured. The end result was beautiful, just what we were dreaming about, and then some. We will be going back for our wedding rings.

I had a wonderful experience buying an engagement ring at Bario Neal. I knew my fiancé would want me to buy something that was responsibly sourced, and I found Bario Neal online. I was a little unsure what to expect, as I know nothing about jewelry and wasn’t sure what my options were in terms of stones, metals, etc. The person I worked with at the Bario Neal showroom was extremely helpful. She gave me a range of options within my budget and really helped me decide on what aesthetic and material choices would make the most sense. The whole process was very easy. My fiancé loved the ring! We plan to buy wedding bands here as well.

My now husband, purchased my engagement ring from Bario Neal, he had the beautiful Avens ring made for me with a cushion cut diamond and aqua/​blue sapphire. It is so unique and beautiful, I feel so happy every time I look down and see it sparkle. We worked with Anna on the creation of the engagement ring and then two custom wedding bands. She is super knowledgeable and full of great suggestions and ideas! The show room is lovely and you can try on most of Bario Neal’s amazing creations! We really enjoyed working together to get the designs we were hoping for, we had meetings in person several email exchanges and photos of wax models, plus even amazing cad models of the rings before they were made. Bario Neal really knows how to treat their customers!
