A. D'Mae Diamonds, 1832 S Barrington Ave Ste 201, Los Angeles, CA 90025. (424) 359-9009. By appointment only.

A. D'Mae Diamonds is a custom jewelry studio in West Los Angeles, on Barrington Ave south of Wilshire. Barrington runs straight north into Brentwood, so from San Vicente the studio is about five minutes away, the shortest drive of any neighborhood it serves. Alexandria Necker, a third-generation jeweler and GIA Graduate Gemologist, designs every piece herself, by appointment, with no inventory and no sales floor.

Brentwood is quiet residential streets, San Vicente's restaurants, and evenings that end early. The clients who come to the studio from Brentwood, older and younger, tend to be professionals who'd rather not drive into the busy parts of town for something this personal, and who want a bespoke piece designed around them rather than chosen from a case. Fine jewelry comes up here as often as engagement rings: an anniversary piece, a necklace, something for themselves.

How do I get to the studio from Brentwood?

Head south on Barrington Ave from San Vicente, or south on Bundy and then east. It's about five minutes, often less. The studio is at 1832 S Barrington Ave Ste 201, Los Angeles, CA 90025. There's plenty of parking out front, and if you need something arranged, call us and we'll take care of it.

The studio is by appointment only, with no walk-ins: book before you come, and the time is yours. Because it's so close, follow-up visits for a stone approval or a design check-in fit easily into a week. Virtual consultations are also available and cover the same ground.

Fine jewelry is where Brentwood clients surprise themselves: a tennis necklace designed in a metal they can actually wear, an anniversary piece, earrings that match nothing in a case. It's designed the same way an engagement ring is, around the person, in a free 90-minute consultation that's a conversation rather than a pitch, with every cost explained before you commit to anything.

Who You'll Work With

Alexandria Necker is a third-generation jeweler and a GIA Graduate Gemologist, and she designs every piece herself. She hand-picks diamonds in person in Los Angeles, and most pieces are made in New York by the workshop she works with. What she does best is translation: turning what a piece needs to mean into what it should look like. More about Ali and her GIA Graduate Gemologist training.


Questions From Brentwood Clients

Is A. D'Mae Diamonds in Brentwood?

No. The studio is a few minutes south on Barrington Ave, in West Los Angeles, just south of Wilshire. Barrington runs north into Brentwood, so from San Vicente or the Country Mart it's about five minutes.

Do you make jewelry other than engagement rings?

Yes. Necklaces, earrings, bracelets, tennis bracelets and necklaces, anniversary pieces and pieces people buy for themselves. One client needed a tennis necklace in a metal that worked with a gold allergy; it was designed in platinum for her, and she wears it every day.

How much does a custom piece cost?

Ali tells you what things cost, and every cost is explained before you commit. Real price tiers are on how much a custom engagement ring costs and, for everything else, how much custom jewelry costs. The consultation is free.

How does a consultation work, and how long is it?

It's 90 minutes, by appointment, in the studio or over video. Ali asks who the piece is for, what matters to you and what you want to spend, then tells you plainly what that gets you. You leave with a direction and a range for it, and a firm quote follows once there's a design to quote.

Do you make wedding bands and other jewelry, not just engagement rings?

Yes. Wedding bands, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, anniversary pieces and pieces people buy for themselves, all designed the same way.

How is parking at the studio?

There's plenty of parking out front, and the studio is appointment-only, so there's no walk-in traffic competing for it.

Is the studio open on weekends?

Yes, Saturdays. Appointments run Monday through Saturday, 9 am to 7 pm Pacific, always by appointment.
