I dropped them off on Thursday afternoon and was told they'd be ready in about a week, maybe sooner. I mentioned I would be out of town for a couple weeks and they assured me they'd be safe until I could come back to pick them up. The very next morning I got a call that they were ready to be picked up, as they had heard I was going to be on vacation and thought I'd like to have them for the trip. They did a beautiful job, far better than I ever imagined - it's like they gave the old charms a shiny new life. Thank you so much!

Great little jewelry store for gifts and special occasions. It's organized by brand/artist, which…read moreis helpful if you know what style you're looking for. The women who work here are all very friendly and more than willing to step in and help you make a decision if you're staring in the mirror trying to decide which earrings suit you better. That said, being saleswomen, their opinion will usually be to support you in whichever one you like more, even if neither feels quite right. They only have a small selection from each brand's catalog on hand at a given time, and usually only one of each, but will provide you with the catalogs so you can peruse them and pick out whichever you'd like to see and try on. It takes a week or two to get them in; they wrote down your name and number to give you a call when they arrive. This is a nice option for unique and elegant jewelry if you're looking for an anniversary gift, graduation present, etc. My mom loves the line of handcrafted silver pieces-- she has at least three sets of earrings and a necklace herself, and has given them as gifts to a couple relatives, all of whom were very happy. These are the kind of pieces people stop you on the street in Manhattan to ask you about... They're always disappointed to hear they're from a little store upstate!

I ended up with a necklace featuring a very nice sapphire in a cool setting, just over 4 digits in price. When I found out my wife couldn't wear the piece due to some medical procedure, we went back together and they could not have been more gracious. Before refunding they asked us if we'd like to have something made, which we decided to do. They came back with a quote for a tennis-style bracelet that my wife loves, and voila, it's a happy ending. Wonderful people, good selection, broad spectrum of prices. I've shopped at Tiffany's in multiple cities, and I am always happy to work with small family jewellers when I can -- Van Alstyne is a great example of why.

The stress they save my family is a value all in itself! We appreciate the good natured, can do attitude. They got the job done effectively, working with me to make any adjustments needed.
