I first heard about Julian Bartrom from his brother Ray, who is now my husband. I quote Ray: "My brother Julian is a very talented jeweler. He will be famous one day!" After getting to know Julian and his work, I couldn't agree more with that statement. When Ray and I decided to be married, we knew who was going to make my engagement ring and our wedding bands. It sure is nice to have a talented jeweler in the family. :) Due to living on different continents, most of our discussions happened over skype, which could seem challenging but Julian made it a very pleasant experience. His professional demeanor, knowledge, patience and understanding made me trust him entirely. I learned a lot about diamonds throughout the process. I hadn't realized how many different types and cuts of diamonds there are. Julian's detailed descriptions and advice were extremely helpful. His work comes from his heart; his passion to create life lasting pieces of art and to provide an excellent client experience are his forte. When I first saw my engagement ring, it took my breath away and left me speechless for a few minutes. Albeit my expectations were high, it turned out so much better than I could ever imagine. It's not just the dazzling diamond but also Julian's magic touch and pure love for his work that animated the ring. Thank you Julian for giving us the gift of life long beauty and memories! It was a true delight and honor to work with you!

I have dealt with Contender for a number of years and choose them as my main supplier of fabrics. I always get what I order, on time and the quality of the fabrics they stock is the best available.
