I had a ring with a very small band resized by this business. They advised me that with such a thin…read moreband I should avoid getting it resized more than once to avoid visible changes to the ring, and they did everything in their power to make sure I chose the right size. They got it done within a day and I couldn't even tell that it had been resized, there was absolutely no marking visible to the naked eye. The shop itself was small but seemed to have a great selection of unique jewelry. If I ever need a ring resized, or need to have jewelry custom-made I will definitely come to this shop!

I recently had my engagement ring shank re-built by Vandenberg's (it was really thin due to it…read morehaving been re-sized twice). I went to them not because I had ever used them before, but, I had dropped by in the past to ask about having some older pieces of jewelry re-made into something new, and they had been very patient and friendly and took the time to speak with me. This time was no different. The very nice sales associate took the time to explain to me exactly how the rebuilding process worked, explained that I could get a gold credit for the portion of the shank they were cutting out (including showing me how it's calculated), and gave me what I thought was a reasonable quote (which ended up being quite accurate as my cut out shank wasn't worth very much in the end). I was able to pick up my ring within the same week that I dropped it off. They did a great job - you can't tell at all where the new shank was soldered, and the shiny rose gold matched my original wedding bands exactly (as it should; they also offered to clean the rest of my bands, which was really nice). They do appraisals there as well ($60/piece) and they do it there in their store, so there is no need to worry about it getting sent away to a potentially less-than-reputable third party. I wasn't able to have my ring re-appraised as the person who does it (possibly the owner?) was away on vacation, but I do plan to come back to have it and other pieces appraised.

I saw a flyer for this store back when it first opened. I browsed through it and fell in love with…read morethese beads! They're sort of charm beads and you purchase a bunch, then purchase a chain to wear them as a necklace or bracelet or anklet or whatever. I went to the website of the manufacturer and everything. I was obsessed with them! These aren't plastic or glass beads or anything. They're gold! They had yellow gold and white. So many designs! I had absolutely no "concept" of the price before entering the store. I'm glad they had the white leather barstools lining the display case because once I saw the prices, I really needed to sit down. I guess if I had more money than I knew what to do with, maybe it wouldn't be such an indulgence but considering I can barely afford rent and food...not going to happen.

I highly recommend Concept if you're looking for something spectacular and unique.

This quiet two-room shop smells like grandma's house - a little bit musty and stale - but contains…read moreitems much older than grandma. If you're a collector of turn-of-the-century silverware, antique furniture, paintings, spoons, carpets and other nick-knacks that are valuable because they're old, and possibly rare, then this antique shop may have what you're looking for. It has the feel of a museum or library rather than a flea market. Everything is in glass cases, and to the undiscriminating eye it just looks like garage sale kitsch, but the price tag will tell you otherwise. I was attracted to the jewelry, which was a mix of regal, tarnished, chunky and fine. Heirlooms that get their value from the ticking of time and nostalgia.

There was a sign saying there was a sale on, but nothing was marked down and there was no interest in bargaining.

There is a nice selection of late 19th/early 20th century pieces, particularly of the tufted uphostery kind, a few dining tables and assorted chairs, a fair amount of overpriced estate jewelry and some china. Worth a visit, if they actually kept regular hours.

I would have never thought to go inside, but a co-worker had mentioned that he received great customer service at this store, so I decided to pop in one day after work. Initially I was a little intimidated by having to ring a doorbell to buzz open the door, but the store itself is intimate and welcoming. I have been looking for jewelry to wear at my wedding for over a month, and have been continually disappointed by the selection at chain stores in malls. The diamond jewelry here is classic and beautiful, and I found what I had invisioned immediately. It looks like a two-person team runs the store (a man and a woman) and both times I visited they were very patient and friendly, and I felt none of the attitude I have experienced from staff at other stores. When I purchased a necklace, it was cleaned for me before being put in a box, and when I mentioned off hand that my engagement ring was dirty, the saleswoman took it back for cleaning and offered the free cleaning service to me at any time I wanted. I am very pleased with the necklace I bought, and enjoyed the low pressure, friendly service at Forest of Jewels.

There are many items that your family and friends will most likely get a kick out of. Most of it is for the female population though (as like most stores). The Plaid Giraffe carries Nine & Co. bags from Nine West, unique scarves, jewelry (wow, do they have jewelry), and other neat gift items. As I made my way through the store recently, one guy was browsing as well and, while his girlfriend paid for her brand new bag at the counter, he was picking up one item after another and saying "How sweet is this?!?" again and again. I have to admit, it was pretty amusing. But then, so is their selection. Among their items that will make you laugh and gasp are barbed wire toilet paper (TP with a barbed wire design on it) and -- get this -- a hair-coloring kit specifically for your "hair down there". I'm dead serious! I had never seen anything like it before. I mean, who does that? Not that I'm judging or anything ... hey, it's something new! But the colors available were electric blue, pink, and orange. Whoa, now there's somethin' freaky going on there! My favorite thing about the Plaid Giraffe though, is their jewelry, which is pretty much the inner half of the shop. They have it all color-coded, so there are your blues, then purples, and black and whites, and so on. Some of it is a little pricey, but it depends on what materials it has, right? I find that most of their earrings start at $9.99 and go up from there. They've also got a wide selection of those neat purse-hanger things that have been popping up everywhere. The idea is that you basically hang part of it on the edge of a table, and it has a hook that your bag can hang from. Your bag won't be on the floor and get dirty, and has its own place. The Plaid Giraffe also carries items that make great traveler gifts, if you are shopping for a globe-trotter. They have typical items like travel pillows, but with and fun designs, so they're not as boring. Anyway, that's just a peek at what they have in store. I'm already looking forward to my next trip here!

It's a really nice bag but it's a couple of years old now and the store no longer carries one like it.

I did like their cute wallets made from different colored leather with fun designs or patterns on them. They have a lot of accessories. Their whole back half of the store is devoted to accessories. I found some great earrings that I've been looking for at some good prices; one pair was $9.99 and the other pair (a pair of square ones; I actually don't own square shaped earrings!) for $11.99. They have a lot of really nice but not too expensive looking jewelry. Their store is really nice and net with lots of open areas so you can actually breath. The two girls that were working were really nice and super friendly. They let me look around in peace without bugging me or pressuring me to buy something; it was really nice to just to my thing.
