2nd Yelp Elite Event that I attended and didn't know what to expect…read more Cute store with very nice stuff. I myself got a tinted lip & cheek balm as well as hand lotion. They gave a discount since private event so that was a bonus and a deal. They were very nice and gave out a gift bag filled with a hand lotion as well as nail polish. They had testers for most of the items so it was nice to try. They even had a free whiskey tasting by a woman owned whiskey brand.

I had the absolute best experience working with AJ's Jewelry in Ridgewood, NY to create my dream…read morewedding ring set. From the very beginning, Gus and Jordan were incredibly open-minded and genuinely excited to bring my vision to life. This meant so much to me because I had sourced my own stones through a lapidary in the UK, and not every jeweler is willing to work with outside materials. They embraced the idea without hesitation and treated my stones with the utmost care and respect. What truly set them apart was their communication. I was kept informed every step of the way and Gus was always responsive & happy to answer my (many!) questions. I always felt confident and involved in the process which made all the difference as an out-of-state/long-distance customer. The design process itself was fun, which I didn't expect, and it felt like a true creative partnership rather than just a transaction. The final result is a wedding ring set that feels completely personal and one-of-a-kind. I'm so grateful to AJ's Jewelry for making the entire experience so enjoyable. If you're looking for a jeweler who is skilled, communicative and truly invested in bringing your vision to life, I can't recommend AJ's Jewelry enough. 10/10

It was a Mother chain with 4 children charms hanging for it and a 14" Figaro gold chain. I only brought it in to get fixed because one of the charms fell off and the salesman showed my another version of the children charms and I decided to change only two of them for $160 but I didn't return for a couple of months due to an emergency situation. I came back to retrieve my necklace and I am told it has totally vanished. I cannot locate my ticket so Ruby Palace claims they cannot find my phone number in the system. How convenient...so watch out people hold onto your tickets for dear life because you will lose your precious jewelry at this place. They need to find a better system. Good luck with your valuables at this store...they don't know what they are doing. I'm now suing them! See you in court!!

I came here a few months back to have my diamond bracelet adjusted. I cant remember the mans name…read more but I believe he's the owner of the store. He measured my wrist and confirmed that only one link need to be removed. After picking up my bracelet a few days later, it is STILL too loose. When I pointed that out, he wanted me to pay another $35 to have one more link removed. He was the one that said one link is good enough. He made it sound like it was my fault. Heck if I knew, I would have become a jeweler myself. So basically, even if they screw up, they expect you to pay to have it redone. I'd stay away from this place and head a few blocks down to the the new jewelry shop that just opened up across from CVS. They're so much nicer and their service is "we'll make sure it fits nicely before you leave."

I love the Ridgewood Market!…read more This Sunday was the first time that I attended. It actually took place on Summerfield Street, which is right near my house (so I had no excuse not to attend!). So my local artisans and businesses were represented here! Not only establishments from Ridgewood (Norma's, Rudy's) but there are tons of other cool vendors from all over NYC represented here! MartiniHandmades (from whom I got an awesome terrarium and bracelet), an awesome empanada table, someone serving shrimp and grits! So many local artists, jewelry makers and thrift stores! I know that this market is awesome, because even my boyfriend, who usually does not enjoy these types of things, found several vendors, items and foods that he loved! Score! Everyone was friendly and some vendors even took credit cards! What a great way to get to meet people from your neighborhood and support local artisans! I can't wait to do all of my holiday shopping at Ridgewood Market!

I guess I'll review this since it is on here, but it is really a recurrent event rather than a…read more"place". It actually is a monthly event held at Gottscheer Hall; I stopped by the initial one in April. It is categorized on Yelp as a "flea market" at moment, but that is really a misnomer; while there were a few booths selling used goods it is predominantly an indoor arts & crafts fair, with some booths selling food products to boot. This might be a good place to check if you were buying gifts; the majority of the goods are likely more appealing to women than men from my judgement. One aspect I do appreciate is that the vendor pool seems to display a relatively diverse range of ages, ethnicities, and tastes and the same goes for the crowd perhaps due to advertising that is also locally-focused; it doesn't feel so much like some of the similar craft markets held in other boroughs, but has a less-pretentious, very neighborhoodly Queens vibe. It seems to, consciously or not, embody Ridgewood quite well rather than attempting to replicate an outside aesthetic in this old neighborhood. Hopefully it becomes even more diverse and representative of the neighborhood as the event evolves. The best part is seeing so many people at Gottscheer Hall for a public event during daytime hours, as well as being able to get eggs and other brunchtime foods they don't normally serve.
