Vanmark Jewelry

WOW! I have been looking everywhere for a particular bracelet for my fiancé then I saw Mark's website and read the reviews. I immediately drove to his shop and he not only had exactly what I wanted but the quality, craftsmanship and weight of the bracelet are amazing!! We will be buying more pieces from him, for sure! It's also nice to do business with a fellow Broward County native :) Thank you Mark! -Meredith. #SupportSmallBusiness

Van Mark Jewelry Designers would get 10 stars if I could give them more than 5. Mark was very helpful and exceeded our expectations. The customer service we received was well above what we would have expected from any other jewelry store. They are not simply a jewelry store, but Mark designs so many beautiful pieces as well. We were very impressed with the workmanship that went into making the custom sand dollar earrings. For anyone looking for nautical jewelry, this is definitely your go to jeweler. I would recommend to anyone in a heartbeat.

Vanmark is by far the best sportfish jewelry you will ever find. The prices are very reasonable, especially for being made right there in Florida. So many great options and I appreciate the attention to detail of every piece created, works of art.

I came here after receiving a personal recommendation. I was searching for an engagement ring for my girlfriend and I had no experience whatsoever shopping for jewelry. Mark is great to deal with. He got me exactly what I was looking for at a great price. I highly recommend Vanmark Jewelry.

Mark, the owner was so nice when I stopped in...I gave him a budget, 3 days before Christmas, and he found an awesome pair of earrings for me to give as a gift. I was visiting Ft Lauderdale and am so happy I walked the extra block...if I was a local, I'd be a regular customer...they even offered me a.glass of water.to cool off after my walk in the heat! Thanks for finding a great gift...my Aunt loved the turtles!

Quality work, great customer service, and a reputation you can trust. Ordered a semi custom pendant, got exactly what I asked for, and ended up being less than I was quoted and agreed on. Very happy I chose Vanmark!

So friendly and courteous and fast! Mark specializes in high-end custom jewelry, but I am always bringing him beaded necklaces that need mending or shortening. He is so kind and helpful.

Mark was very friendly, helpful and had reasonable prices. Will be coming back again next time I need something fixed.

We went to VanMark on the very high recommendations from neighbors and longtime customers. We met Mark and he is a very personable and honest. He no longer does repairs as he is a very skilled jewelry designer. Mark does buy gold if you have gold to sell. He recommended a place for my repair as he is solely designing and creating which is his specialty. Thank you Mark, it was a true pleasure meeting you and I will recommend to others that are searching for a true professional designer!

Mark is a savior!! I was on business travel to Fort Lauderdale and upon removing my suitcase from my overhead bin on the plane, I knocked my diamond out of my setting! I know...I almost had a heart attack but luckily the loose diamond was not far and was able to grab it with sweaty palms, held onto it tight until I got it to Mark! I came running into the store after a quick search with TRUSTFUL reviews and Mark put me at ease. And the reviews don't lie! Mark was so sweet and ensured I watched him as he placed my diamond back in its setting. It hasn't budged since then. So point #1: don't ever wear your engagement ring lifting heavy items. If no regard for point #1 and you're careless like I am then point #2: find a trusty and reputable jeweler to rely on and Mark was my guy. Thanks, Mark!

I take great pride and pleasure in being able to give a real authentic HONEST review for Vanmark Jewelers. As fate would have it, last April, I was traveling in Peru and went to Machu Picchu. At some point while I was there looking at the ruins, the bracelet fell off of my wrist. I find it ironic and away, that I should lose it in such a sacred spiritual place. And yet the irony is a beautiful one, because I recognize that perhaps some of the gold within that bracelet originated from the Incas and this was Existence offering to return it to its original source. (Well then again maybe I just have a very imaginative mind, but that's a much better story than saying I lost my bracelet Machu Picchu. Lol.) I did not know how I was going to be able to replace that bracelet because the sentimental value was even more than the actual physical value for me. And then it occurred to me. I have a father that's 83 years old, and a year ago he gave me two beautiful American eagle 1 ounce solid gold coins as a birthday present. I took these coins and put them in the bank vault for safe keeping. The problem with that though is that I could never really appreciate them as a gift. They were hidden in a box somewhere. Until it occurred to me that I could melt them down and have that gold formed into a bracelet to replace the one that I lost. At that point I started doing a lot of forensic research to find the perfect master craftsman jeweler that would take on this project. Using the Yelp application I received 10 quotes from higher rated jewelers in the area. I was so discouraged because even though I was providing all the gold material, they still were all quoting me between $2000 and all the way up to $7000 just for the labor of accomplishing this. I wanted an 18 karat 8 1/2 inch Cuban link bracelet around 10 1/2 cm. As luck would have it, Vanmark happened to be right next to my acupuncturist. And I thought why not go in and just give it a shot before I decided to just give up. So I went in and met Mark the owner. Gave him the story and told him what my intention was, and I immediately knew I was in perfect hands. First of all what you should know, Mark is an artist and a scholar. Meaning he has that creative artistic energy as well as an intellectual left brain energy. A perfect balance of the two. In addition, he's the most honest and authentic Jeweler I have ever met. He has integrity and respect for his customer. Believe me I'm somewhat jaded after all of those quotes that I got on Yelp from these local Jewelers. Mark took the time to break down the exact process step-by-step by step. From the beginning to the completed project. And he gave me a great quote for labor, in fact it was A LOT less than the other competitors had quoted me. In addition, Mark invited me to watch him melt my gold coins and actually let me experience the production of my bracelet. And to top it off, he indulged a weird request that I had, I asked him if it would be OK if while the gold was in the molten liquid state if I could put some fur from my beloved dog. Obviously the fur would just be evaporator by the heat of the liquid gold but in my mind it would have the essence of my beloved pet melded into the bracelet almost like a spiritual alchemy. Mark laughed, looked at me like I was a little weird, but said; " I don't care ...not a problem for me." He really educated me...I never understood how much was involved in making a gold bracelet before. Mark stuck to the timeline as promised, had great communication emailing me and calling me and giving me updates. And today I finally was able to pick up the finished product. He presented it to me in a beautiful mahogany wooden box and it was perfect. I can't even express in words how beautiful this bracelet is. So I'm sharing pictures from the original coins to the process to the finished product so you can see for yourself. Look putting Ego aside, I've worked very hard in my life to be very successful, I'm a world traveler, and I'm an excellent judge of character. I give Mark and Vanmark jewelers the highest thumbs up, the highest amount of stars you could possibly give to a Merchant! Trust Mark for any of your jewelry needs. Know that he will take care of you and he will charge you much less than any competitor and give you a by far better quality product. In addition to that most likely you'll end up making a very good friend with a man that has earned and gained my respect and admiration. It's not just a gold bracelet, it captures the love of my father, the love of my dog, and someday the opportunity for me to pass this forward to one of my family members as a keepsake that will always remind them of me. Thank you Mark for putting your energy into this beautiful bracelet!!!!

This place does excellent Jewlery repairs mainly high end pieces. Definitely recommend and trustworthy. They also have a small showroom with beautiful pieces for sale.

I am very happy with the experience working with Mark. He created a beautiful piece of jewelry for me! I definitely will go back and highly recommend him.

Needed watch batteries replaced and found Vanmark through Yelp. SUPER CONVENIENT Will definitely be sending my brother here for a present for his gf. And maybe coming back for a present for me too!

Came here to fix the hook on my pendant that broke and also a necklace. He was able to get it fix less than 10mn. Mark was super friendly and the price was very reasonable. I highly recommend him for all your jewelry needs.

My engagement ring's center stone was loose and our original jeweler had retired so I had to go on the hunt for another experienced and trustworthy person. I visited a couple places that I did not feel comfortable with and continued the search and came across Vanmark Inc. Mark was extremely friendly, took a look at my ring and was able to fix it on site while I was there. He was kind and professional and I will definitely be going back for my jewelry needs!!

A friend recommended Mark to me when I asked where I could find a jeweler who can custom design a pair of earrings from loose stones and a roughly sketched design. Mark created the exact piece I wanted beyond my expectations. His work is clean and precise with attention to detail. I'm very happy with the earrings. So much that I had him make a pair for my partner as well as another for myself. Mark also resized my watchband and cleaned some other pieces for me. I even unloaded some unwanted gold as partial payment and got top dollar for my exchange. I would recommend this place to anyone for all their jewelry needs.

Mark was beyond accommodating and helpful for fixing a problem I had with my engagement ring. I would recommend this business to anyone in the area! I am very thankful we found him, and appreciative of what he did for me.

I have brought two items for repair and I was very impressed with their service both times. I brought a ring which had a cracked band and it came back with a seamless repair, polished and perfect, for under twenty dollars. The second repair was free because it took a little longer than expected, but this, to me, illustrates that they strive to be fair and fully accountable to their customers. They are a shining example of quality service.

If I could give Vanmark Jewelry Designers 10 stars I would! I recently got engaged and needed my engagement ring sized. I'm new to the area, so I was worried about finding a trusted jeweler that could help me. Mark is the best! He was so helpful and let me stay and watch him size my ring so I wouldn't have to leave my diamond behind. He also fixed the clasp on a necklace I brought in free of charge. I think I was in the store for no more than 20 minutes. If you want the best customer service and overall experience, Mark is your guy!

I had been thinking about redesigning some old jewelry pieces, setting some loose stones, adding some bling to rings...I found the right place! Mark is a fabulous jeweler and was so easy to work with. The quality of his work and can do attitude made it a pleasure to finally transform my jewelry.

I came here to reset a diamond stud and to get a watch battery replaced. I was able to do so in less than 10 minutes for a very reasonable price. Mark, the owner, was very efficient and pleasant to deal with. I'll be sure to come back here for any jewelry needs. I highly recommend this establishment.

I highly recommend Mark at Vanmark Jewelry! I was on vacation in Ft. Lauderdale last month and while excercising I smashed my engagement ring and popped out one of the small pavet band diamonds. Thousands of miles from home and newly engaged I was panicked! I quickly searched on Yelp for the closest Jeweler with a 5 star rating! Luckily for me Vanmark was only a few miles down the road so I hopped in a Uber and was on my way. I walked in extremely nervous to hand my ring over to someone I had never met (we've all heard the horror stories of shady jewelers switching out the main stones with fake diamonds). Mark was a Gem....pun intended :) he was polite and professional, he reshaped my ring and reset the diamond that had fallen out. He also checked the integrity of all the other diamonds to make sure I wouldn't have any further issues. He also made a recommendation, which I followed through with of having the bridge of my ring built up so it was stronger. Mark is an honest business owner and a friend to travelers in need!

I recently bought a new setting and I had my diamond set into it by a well rated jewelry store in Boca Raton. Unfortunately, the workmanship was poor and I had another well respected jeweler try to profit from this. This is where Mark from Vanmark Jewelry came into the picture. I shared with him my long story and he gave me his honest opinion. Yes, it was not set correctly but he said it could be fixed. Which was not the same story elsewhere. He talked me through the entire process and let me come with him into the back work area. I could watch him work on my ring the entire time and ask him questions. Really, what other jeweler do you know would do this? He gave me a piece of mind and was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. Not to mention a very fair price. If you look on his website, you can find all the pieces he created himself. But don't let that make you think he doesn't do more. He can do custom work and repairs. Now my engagement ring is back on my hand and I couldn't be happier.

Could not recommend a better place. Mark is easy to work with, extremely talented, and does beautiful work. He created my engagement ring and I could not be happier. The compliments I get on the ring are due to Mark's ornate detail and talents. We moved to Alabama before getting our wedding bands and came back today for him to make them. Another, amazing experience. I highly recommend Vanmark Jewelers.
