  If I could give 6 stars, I would. I went to Barry with my engagement ring that had a few loose stones. He was prompt with his replies to my email to set up a time to meet with him and was very accommodating. He's the type of person that gives off the genuine, honest, feel good vibe. He gave me an extremely reasonable quote and when I went to pick it up he had tightened a few extra prongs and cleaned it! It's always nice to go go a jeweler this day in age and not feel like you're being ripped off.

Barry Russ, restoring my faith in humanity!

  I was in dire need of having my necklace fixed. I was traveling into Buckhead from out of town for a wedding and needed a last minute repair of my favorite piece. Barry welcomed us in with some true southern hospitality. Even though he said he works by appointment only, he didn't turn us away from his door. He fixed my necklace in less than 20 minutes by fully replacing the clasp with a new one and it looks great. We had great conversation as he was working, Barry is a true music fan and a stand up gentleman!! Highly recommend visiting his shop/website!

  Barry is a wonderfully helpful jeweler! I brought him a very thin chain necklace that broke and he was able to fix it for me and at a reasonable rate. I highly recommending supporting him and his small business!

  Barry fixed the setting on my palladium solitaire ring. It's perfect now!! Fixed a day early. Didn't have to part with my ring for more than 24 hrs.

  I was looking for a custom jeweler to make a ring. I stumbled upon Barry's website and decided to give him a call. I met him at his shop in Buckhead and we discussed what I wanted. Fast forward a week and a half, and I have the most perfect ring on my right hand - designed and fabricated by Barry. His pricing estimate was spot on and it was ready exactly when he said it would be.

Barry does excellent work and is just a really cool dude (he also has fantastic taste in music). You can tell he genuinely cares about his customers...anytime I need jewelry made or repaired, I'm going to him.

  Barry is amazing!!!! Barry came highly recommended by my father in law because he actually designed my mother in-law's engagement ring back in the late 1980's. His knowledge, experience, and expertise comes out in his work; he worked with us on designing the PERFECT engagement ring for me based on my preference and lifestyle (I wanted a lower profile, sturdy ring that wasn't set in prongs - he suggested the half bezel which was perfect). He also brought my husband's vision of his dream wedding band to life! I can't recommend him enough!

  Only amazing things to say about Barry Evan!!! He is knowledgeable, honest, and amazing at his craft. I love supporting businesses like his. Found him through Yelp and he did not disappoint. My engagement ring had a loose diamond that I needed to get fixed. I contacted him online and got a response fairly quickly, followed by a personal phone call to explain exactly where he was located. Not only did he repair my ring quickly and perfectly, but he also cleaned it for me and I feel like I have a brand new engagement ring!! If you need anyone for repairs, or even custom jewelry, he is your guy. The sweetest, kindest soul. Highly recommend.

  I am so pleased to write a review for my new friend and jeweler, Barry Evan Russ! To find someone who is an artist, honest, caring, friendly - who tells you what he can do and then does it - a delightful experience. I found Barry after reading numerous reviews when searching for a jeweler. I have been a bit intimidated about trying to do something with a few pieces of family jewelry that I inherited - and they have been sitting in a drawer for years. My husband has begged me to find a ring to symbolize our marriage/friendship of 6+ years. I'm older and more practical than I once was and I have put him off on this for all 6 of our years together. After reading reviews on Barry, I decided to give this a try. Barry responded to my request very quickly and we set up a time for me to bring my jewelry items into his shop. He listened to me - he never made me feel dumb - never tried to sell me more than I told him I wanted to spend. A couple of items I had he quickly told me were not worth trying to do anything with so I took those home. But I had two diamonds that were almost identical in size and shape and Barry began to search for a setting that would work for me. We sat together at his computer and looked at images. I am now wearing my new ring and I could not be happier! Barry does wonderful work and I enjoyed my experience with him so much. If you are not into the big box stores or intimidating high-end jewelery stores - if you want a simple, honest experience - I assure you that you will not be disappointed with Barry Evan Russ. Thank you for the ring and the friendship, Barry! I hope to see you again.

  Not many jewelers work with the metal palladium (platinum's lighter weight, naturally occurring cousin), so when I found out Barry had a long history with the metal, I was delighted to meet him.

First, Barry resized a 1940s palladium engagement ring I bought from an estate jeweler online for my fiance. He was so nice and inexpensive, we asked Barry to design a new palladium wedding band to match that ring and HE NAILED IT!!

Barry's ability to design rings that look like actual vintage rings is what sets him apart from the rest. He is a student of jewelry and there is no faking the funk with him. But what makes me love Barry is his honesty. He did not try to up-sell us on anything crazy and gave us great bang for the buck.

I'm so happy we met Barry. He is a true artist and honest businessman who works with one of the greatest metals on Earth, palladium. I can't sing his praises enough. Thank you Barry!!
