Bring New Life to your Engagement Ring
For over 30 years, Roman Jewelers has had the honor of meeting many special couples. Usually, we first meet a couple who just got engaged and who are looking at diamonds and purchasing their engagement ring. Many of these couples become friends and frequently stop in to have their rings inspected and cleaned. It is always so nice to see them and catch up on how their families are doing. It is one of the best parts of our jobs.
Over the years, as tastes and ring styles have evolved these customers, and many others we meet along they way, want to redesign or upgrade their engagement rings...sometimes to celebrate an anniversary or birthday and other times just to celebrate their love. We work with so many customers through the year to do this, but during our RING RESTYLE EVENT, we bring in even more ring inventory and provide 20% savings on new rings and custom design. It really is the best time to restyle your ring. Roman Jewelers truly has the largest selection of engagement rings in Central NJ, so we are certain you will find exactly what you are looking for, or you will work with a custom design specialist to create a one-of-a-kind. This event has become a customer favorite for so many reasons.
Many of our couples who want to update their look are sentimental about the ring that was given to them on the day of their wedding. We totally get that! Just because you are looking to have a new look that reflects your personal style or current taste does not mean you have put your existing diamond in the jewelry box to collect dust, Use it in a new setting and love it again!
Roman Jewelers has rings from the finest designers like A. Jaffe, Gabriel & Co, Hearts on Fire and our own brand, Romanza, to name a few. Andthere are so many engagement ring designs to choose from, including:
Three-Stone: This design features a trio of stones, typically representing the past, present, and future. The center stone is usually larger, flanked by two smaller stones on either side. This is also a wonderful way to use your existing diamond into your new design.
Solitare: A timeless and elegant design featuring a single diamond or gemstone on a plain band. It showcases the center stone's beauty and is a classic choice becoming a very popular style again.
Halo: This design features a center stone surrounded by a halo of smaller diamonds or gemstones, creating a dazzling effect and enhancing the appearance of the main stone.
Vintage: Vintage or antique-inspired designs often incorporate intricate detailing, filigree work, and milgrain edges. They evoke a sense of nostalgia and offer a unique and romantic aesthetic.
Modern/Contemporary: These designs often feature sleek, clean lines and geometric shapes. They can be minimalist or avant-garde, with unique stone settings or metalwork.
Pave: Pave engagement rings have small diamonds or gemstones set closely together, creating a "paved" appearance on the band. This design adds sparkle and elegance to the ring.
Twist/Bypass: In a twist or bypass design, the band splits and crosses over each other, symbolizing the union of two lives. This style adds a touch of uniqueness and symbolism to the ring.
Colored Gemstones: While diamonds are the most popular choice for engagement rings, colored gemstones like sapphires, rubies, or emeralds are gaining popularity. They add a vibrant and personalized touch.
Many couples choose to have a custom engagement ringcreated to suit their specific tastes and preferences. This option allows for endless possibilities and the opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind ring and create something with our custom design specialists that is really unique to both of you. During the Ring Restyle Event, couples can save 20% on custom design.

Graduation is a time for Celebrating and Giving.
It's that time of year for College Graduations, with High School graduations just around the corner. The weather has been so nice here in Central NJ and you can feel the excitement as we plan to gather to recognize and celebrate the accomplishments of our graduates. It's a time for families, friends, and loved ones to honor the graduates' achievements, hard work, dedication, and personal growth. Graduations symbolize a transition from one phase of life to another. It's a moment of stepping into the next chapter, whether it's entering the workforce, pursuing further education, or exploring new opportunities and this deserves a memorable gift. To celebrate a graduation, jewelry can be a wonderful choice. It's a timeless and personal gift that can serve as a lasting reminder of this special milestone. Swiss watches also are very appropriate with perfect sentimental symbolism.Read on for some suggestions.....Engraved Pendant or Necklace: Consider a pendant or necklace with a meaningful symbol, such as a graduation cap, a diploma, or an inspirational quote. You could also personalize it by engraving the graduate's name or graduation date. Gabriel & Co, has some wonderful ideas for both the men and women,Class Ring: Class rings are a traditional and cherished graduation gift, but they don't have to be "traditional" in the sense you are thinking. While they often feature the graduate's school crest, name, and graduation year, some class rings can be more practically worn by being customized with different metals, gemstones, and designs.One of our families chose a Garnet and Diamond Ring to commemorate their daughter's graduation from Rutgers University and their Scarlet Knight wears it everyday.
Thanks, Mom & Dad!Your Scarlet Knight will lovethis ring for her lifetime
Link Bracelet: A link bracelet allows the graduate to add charms if they chose that represent important moments and achievements in their life.Birthstone Jewelry: Consider a piece of jewelry that features the graduate's birthstone.

They can be passed down through generations, serving as a reminder of the graduate's accomplishment and the love and support they received during this significant period of their life.Style and Personal Expression: Watches come in a wide range of designs, allowing you to select a timepiece that matches the graduate's personality and style.

Mother's Day Gift Ideas. Fine Jewelry is always Meaningful & Memorable.
Mother's Day is a special occasion because it celebrates the love and appreciation we have for our mothers and mother figures in our lives. It is an opportunity to express gratitude for all that our moms have done for us, and to recognize the important role they play in our lives. Jewelry is the perfect gift because it is beautiful, memorable and meaningful, just like Mom.And, just like a mom, she probably says she'd be perfectly happy with anything you'd give her this year for Mother's Day...in fact, she likely said, "nothing" or "just make me a nice card." But you will knock her off her chair and delight her with an amazing gift from Roman Jewelers. We even have a few suggestions that would work perfectly.Birthstone jewelry: Consider a piece of jewelry that features your mom's birthstone. This could be a necklace, bracelet, or pair of earrings that she can wear and treasure. Birthstone jewelry can also be very sentimental if it includes other birthstones in it, like yours...or her grandchildren's.Personalized jewelry: You could also opt for a piece of jewelry that is customized with your mom's initials. We love the tiny treasures collection, which is so elegant, and Made it Italy by designer Roberto Coin.Diamond earrings: If your mom loves classic and timeless pieces, diamond earrings are a great choice. They are elegant and sophisticated, and can be worn for a variety of occasions. Our Diamond Stud program at Roman Jewelers, is the Mother's Day gift that keeps on giving, too.

Roman Jewelers Awarded 2022 NJ Family Business of the Year
Roman Jewelers is pleased to share that we are the recipient of the New Jersey Family Business of the Year Award for 2022 by the Rothman Institute of Innovation and Entrepreneurship at Fairleigh Dickinson University. This was the 30th annual award year for the program, which is considered the most prestigious acknowledgement of the power of family business in the State of New Jersey.It was held on October 19, 2022 at the Upper Montclair Country Club. Roman Jewelers won in the revenue under 10-million-dollar category.
Roman and Sophie Shor opened the Business in 1989 and the family has been Jewelers for four generations. The business is now primarily run by their daughter, Lucy Zimmerman with her parents very closely involved.
“We are so honored to receive this award,” said Ms. Zimmerman. “It would never have been possible without the vision and determination of my parents, Roman and Sophie, along with our customers, employees, and the community that has always supported us.”
For the Shor/Zimmerman family, the story began with Roman Shor’s Great Grandfather who passed down the gift of jewelry design that set Roman and his young family on a journey that took them to the United States from the former Soviet Union in 1980. From there, a small business loan, hard work, and a great amount of talent introduced the family to a community that embraced them and their wonderful jewelry. “We always treated our customers like family…back then and today. It is the core of who we are as a company and jewelry itself is so often a celebration of family, too. It comes from the heart,” said Sophie Shor.
The Shor/Zimmerman family has had quite a year of excitement surrounding their business. In addition to this award, they were recently featured on Bloomberg TV’s THE AMERICAN DREAM, a show that tells the inspirational stories of the men and women who founded and built incredible companies from humble beginnings. Roman Jewelers also received recognition for a creating a Jewelry Auction that raised more than $24,000—100 percent of the proceeds—for the Children of Ukraine. Ms Zimmerman says, “Family Businesses are the heart of this Country, not just for what they’ve built and provided as products and services, but for how they give back to and help others.”
The store owners also said how thankful they were to share the stage with the eleven amazing honorees and Rothman Institute at Fairleigh Dickinson University.

Roman Jewelers Raises Awareness and Funds Through Virtual Silent Auction to Aid Children Impacted by War in Ukraine
On April 12, 2022, Roman Jewelers,launched a virtual silent auction that raised awareness and over $24,000 for UNICEF, a humanitarian aid organization, which is working diligently to provide care for children impacted by the war in Ukraine. Roman Jewelers worked with Givergy, an online fundraising platform, to establish a virtual fundraiser that featured fine jewelry pieces, as well as unique gemstones, that were donated by several sponsors.
This Sapphire & Diamond Pendant was a popularFundraising piece.
Roman Jewelers established this online fundraiser for the children of Ukraine with the resources they have at their fingertips—in this case—fine jewelry. This contemporary form of community outreach, which expanded beyond the Somerset County region, provided the opportunity to meet new friends and donors that found out about the auction through social media shares and posts. The company is now sharing its fundraising efforts with the jewelry press in the hope that other jewelers from around the globe will join in and create similar campaigns. The Roman Jewelers/Givergy online auction platform, which is currently viewable at https://givergy.us/romanjewelers, includes a personalized message from the Roman Jewelers Family.
Roman Jewelers has a personal story, too. Roman & Sophie Shor defected from the communist USSR in the early 1980s with their children. Their love of America is so strong because their beliefs in the pursuit of freedom, their support of democratic values, and their very deep understanding of the effects of government suppression are even stronger. Beliefs that have been passed down to their daughter and co-owner, Lucy Zimmerman.
"The impact of war on children is devastating and the trauma experienced can have lifelong effects. It is crucial that they receive key necessities like healthcare, nutritious meals, education, and protection. Our company swiftly established this silent auction to help support this essential aid," said Lucy Zimmerman, co-owner of Roman Jewelers.
This Pendant was donated by T.Gluck & Co.,one of the 15 partners who generously donated tothe Roman Jewelers Auction
The goal of this virtual silent auction, which concluded on May 1, 2022, was to raise $15,000, but due to the extraordinary support of its customers and online community, Roman Jewelers raised $24,091, whereas 100% of the proceeds are being donated to The Children of the Ukraine.
Roman Jewelers’ employee, Angelika Vereb, knows first-hand how vital aid is currently. Vereb currently has family in Kharkiv, the first city that was attacked on February 24th. Vereb’s mom, brother, sister-in-law, and nephew (age 16) are safe, but many children have been sheltering from bombs for months in the subway station and surviving on donations of food, water, and medicine.
“I hope and pray that food does not run out and that they can continue to survive. Donations are needed right now and for as long as this awful war lasts and beyond," said Vereb. She mentioned that she finds it difficult to even find the words to express how touched she is by her friends, customers, and employer. In short, she said, “I am grateful for the generosity of my customers and friends. It means so much to me personally, but also to the Ukrainian people. They do not deserve this, and the children are the most affected.”
Lucy Zimmerman stated, "We are incredibly overwhelmed and thankful to everyone who has contributed beyond what we ever expected. We are so grateful to our staff, jewelry partners, customers, and the community for helping us make this silent auction a success. Exceeding the goal of this fundraiser just goes to show the extraordinary things we can accomplish when we work together. However, our work is not done yet."
According to UNICEF, the war is creating almost one child refugee per second, a startling statistic that the owners and staff at Roman Jewelers take to heart and feel compelled to keep helping.
Lucy Zimmerman stated, “We do not want to stop! We are currently custom designing a pendant for the children of Ukraine that will be available for purchase, and again, we will donate 100% of the proceeds. We want to spread the word. The more the jewelry industry and community participates, the more help we can provide."
Roman Jewelers would also like to thank its jewelry partners, which include Hearts on Fire, Roberto Coin, Artinian Gems, Pink Diamond, Freida Rothman, Izi, Parade, Veer, Uneek by Benjamin Javaheri, Gabriel & CO., T. Gluck Company, GN Diamond, Vivaan, Getana & Co., and Fischer Jewelry Designs—for donating beautiful jewelry pieces that encouraged ongoing engagement and bidding during this virtual silent auction.
