Virginia’s Top Rated Local® Jewelry Store Award Winner: Carreras Jewelers

Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Carreras Jewelers is one of the top five jewelry stores in Virginia for 2019!

“Couldn’t be happier. Mark took one look at my ring and suggested a repair no other jeweler had suggested. I went to discuss disassembling the stones for earrings because I had been previously told by another store the ring was beyond repair. I am now able to properly enjoy my beautiful ring every day and I am so grateful!” -Elizabeth H.

“I was so happy with my experience at Carreras! I wanted to create something unique for my fiancée, and Presley helped me find and custom-order a perfect engagement band that fit my rather detailed specifications. They had no issues at all in working with the lab-grown stone I brought in for the ring, which is something I’d heard some jewelers take issue with for various reasons. They did a wonderful job setting the stone, and the ring turned out beautifully!” -Martin L.

“Best jewelry retailer in Richmond, hands down. Not only is their inventory extremely unique, custom and personal, but their staff truly cares and treats their clients like family. You get what you pay for and Carreras provides value unlike any jeweler I’ve ever experienced.” -Jason S.

These and more than 100 other reviews have given Carreras Jewelers a 97.88 Rating Score™ and a 4.79 average rating, and made them a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner!

Not Your Average Jewelry Company

Mary Leipertz, the marketing manager at Carreras Jewelers, took some time to speak with us about the business’ impressive online reputation.

“The service provided and our estate jewelry collection are big differentiating factors which make Carreras a great store to do business with,” she said, when asked what sets Carreras Jewelers apart from other jewelers in Virginia. “We have two buyers on-site who work with the public and private dealers across the country to ensure we have unique pieces to offer our customers. We’re also members of the GIA and AGS.”

Building Success With A Community of Enthusiastic Clients

As the marketing manager at a company with a phenomenal online reputation, Mary has quite a bit of knowledge to share with other businesses that want to build and maintain a good online reputation. Here’s her best advice for those businesses:

“Reviews and reputation are everything. Clients want to shop somewhere they can trust, especially for a luxury item such as jewelry. Clients sharing their experiences online after shopping with us helps paint the picture for other customers who are exploring options when shopping for jewelry.”


Thank you for speaking with us, Mary! Congratulations to the team at Carreras Jewelers for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner!
