Do not be lured into Brian West Jewelry in Kinston!!!…read more This guy is horrible! Granted, he hand-makes most of his jewelry and the look of each piece is nice. However, his prices are not competitive in price and God forbid you take something in for repair. My husband purchased .10 Carat diamond earrings for me and was charged almost $300!!! Not a good Christmas morning when I found out!!! I took a necklace (made by BW) for lengthening and he kept it for months on end. When I finally got it back, the thing snapped when I picked it up out of the box. Over a year later, I finally had to go in and sit in the store with a (thick) book to "wait him out" and force the issue to get my necklace. During the year long wait, I got all kinds of dramatic excuses from his shop but never any apology or offer to get my jewelry back. I'm sorry his mother died, he had brain surgery, his daughter got married, etc. Life happens. Make plans to run your business in the meantime. Or, at least call your customers and let them know what's happening. This taught me to never do business with someone who ignored the Better Business Bureau and treated a customer with such disinterest. Go anywhere but here!!! Oh, and also, the place always reeks of smoke. I had such a hard time breathing when I had to go in that they ended up opening the door to vent their cigarette smoke. Yuck! My clothes were so stinky that I took them off and ran them thru the wash as soon as I got home with the hot water/heavy soil setting of my machine and they still had some smoke lingering afterwards.

Leon Thomas Treasures was a business that I found open in Downtown Kinston! I had no idea when I…read moreentered what a find it was. I was warmly greeted when I entered and told about a sale that was going on. This is the type of store I just love. Sometimes it can be hard to find that perfect gift but here there is such a large selection of unique items. Local vendors use the store to sell their art/ craft items from pottery to signs to soaps and lotions to handmade items. The motivational signs are always a favorite of mine. The clothing came in a variety of sizes and that is so rare. Then there was a lot of jewelry in different designs. The products are very good quality and reasonable prices. I will definately be a return shopper to Leon Thomas Treasures.

It's refreshing to go to an antique store that isn't full of glassware. There is some glassware but…read morenot overloaded. Many cool little things . Good selection of antique and vintage jewelry. Great place to find a spoon ring! Definitely takes more than one trip to see it all !

This place is huge! We spent a few hours here just browsing one weekday. I like to think of antique…read moremalls as museums of Americana. They have so many booths in here- a lot of antiques but also a bunch with crafts- almost like an in-person etsy. I did notice they seemed to be lacking furniture, and really heavy on the Knick knacks, but I suppose that can vary at any given time. We ended up leaving empty handed because sometimes the more Knick knacks you see the less you want. And the more you want to go home and declutter your entire house.... Still, a fun few hours.
