Serving the South Bay since 1982
Welcome to Eliopulos Jewelers
Established in 1982 by Pete Eliopulos, Eliopulos Jewelers has been a trusted name in fine jewelry for over 43 years. Pete opened his first studio in 1992, and by 1997 the business had grown into a full-scale jewelry store. Eliopulos Jewelers was voted South Bay’s Best Jewelry Store multiple times between 1998 and 2010, and South Bay’s Favorite Jewelry Store in 2011, 2012, and 2023 by the Daily Breeze.
Since 2017, we are BY APPOINTMENT ONLY focusing on custom designs, personalized service, and expert repairs. We continue to offer the same great services that have made us a South Bay favorite for over 40 years, now with an even more personal touch.

Since 2017, Eliopulos Jewelers has been BY APPOINTMENT ONLY, and trust us, it’s a good thing. This shift allows us to focus entirely on what we do best: custom designs, personalized service, and expert repairs, all with the one-on-one attention you deserve.
We’ve been a South Bay favorite for over 40 years, and this more intimate setup lets us continue that legacy with even more care and craftsmanship.
Why no online booking?
Well, let’s just say Pete is a master jeweler, not a tech wizard. If you ask him to build a cathedral setting, he’s got you. Ask him to set up online scheduling? Let’s just say you'll be waiting a while.So give us a call. Pete’s much faster with a phone than a keyboard. He’d love to hear from you and set up a time to help you create something special.

Yes, we do. We offer a full range of expert repair services, from ring resizing and chain repairs to prong re-tipping and stone replacement. Your jewelry is always handled with the same care and precision we’d give our own. If you’re not sure what kind of repair you need, we’re happy to take a look and walk you through it.

We specialize in custom engagement rings and wedding bands, so rather than browsing rows of pre-set rings, you’ll have the chance to create something truly personal. That said, we also have a beautiful selection of finished pieces in-store for inspiration, or for when time is of the essence.
-
Yes. We’re proud to offer fair, competitive pricing without ever compromising on quality. Because we’re a small, independent jeweler, we don’t have the overhead of big-box stores. That means more value for you. Whether it’s a custom diamond piece or a repair, you’ll always get honest pricing and exceptional craftsmanship.
Our top priority is quality. We want every piece, especially engagement rings and wedding bands, to stand the test of time. These are pieces that go through daily wear and tear, and Pete uses his decades of experience to recommend the small design details that make a big difference in long-term durability. His expertise truly shines when it comes to creating jewelry that’s both beautiful and built to last.
We’ll also do our best to work within your budget. Bring in photos or inspiration, and Pete will guide you through the best options to bring your dream ring to life without compromising on integrity or craftsmanship.

What people are saying.
My husband and I got both of our rings from Pete at Eliopulos Jewelers, and each exceeded our expectations! Our wedding was in Iowa and he shipped our rings right to us. The communication was excellent and he always answered our questions and concerns promptly. We love our rings and I would (and will!) order from him again in a heartbeat!
-Lauren D.
Had a custom ring done by Pete himself and it turned out better than I could’ve imagined. Great quality and customer care.
-Larissa S.
Eliopulos Jewelers is a great place to purchase beautiful jewelry. Pete is always trying to find you the perfect piece of jewelry for your next event or even just for wearing everyday. I love my sapphire ring that he custom made for me. I gave him some of my thoughts and he created the perfect ring, which I wear daily.
-Stephanie P.
Pete designed my wedding ring 37 years ago. He has since done several custom pieces for me. He does excellent work and his customer service is excellent!! He added a band to my ring for an anniversary and shipped to me. I only trust Pete for any custom jewelry.
-Rosie S.
We had an amazing experience with Eliopulos Jewelers in Torrance when purchasing a custom wedding ring. From start to finish, the service was exceptional. Pete, the owner, has decades of experience and it truly shows, not only in the craftsmanship but in the way he treats his customers. He makes you feel like family the moment you walk through the door.
Pete took the time to understand exactly what my husband was looking for and guided him through the custom design process with care and expertise. The final ring is absolutely stunning, beautifully crafted, unique, and something I’ll cherish forever. I constantly receive compliments on it!
If you're looking for a trusted jeweler with incredible skill, genuine warmth, and a passion for what they do, I can’t recommend Pete and Eliopulos Jewelers enough. A truly outstanding experience from beginning to end.
