Looking in from the street, one could imagine that this is a high fashion jewellery store with some steep price tags. Surprisingly, everything in there is reasonably priced to fit anyone's budget. I myself am not someone who is big on wearing or buying jewellery, however after experiencing Raul's (the co-owner) passion towards hand-crafted jewellery from around the world, the stories behind each piece, the details & uniqueness... even I left this store with a couple sets of earrings for a lady friend. This jewellery store is bright, clean and laid out in a easy to browse manner so you don't miss any original pieces. I would highly recommend this jewellery store to anyone who likes buying items were they know they'd be one of the only person wearing it. And as a male who's not huge into jewellery, this is a place where you can make a purchase (as a gift) feeling confident that it'll be well received for the lucky someone you intended on giving it to. If you're a lady, you can expect to spend a significant amount of time in here deciding on which piece you really want! Better yet, just get both/all of them! They'll look fabulous on you ;-) There are even 2 games you can play with Raul in an attempt to get a percentage off of your purchase. Good luck; you'll need it!

I dropped by the 'Lady Dragon Glassworks' website recently to browse her latest offerings - with a…read moresummer birthday trip coming up before too long, I had a little shopping in mind. Like the last time I was on the site and ordered, I was really taken by the variety, beauty, and 'fun' of her lovely, handcrafted, glass pendants. I found and liked so many -- but what to choose? I decided to pick items from two favourite natural environments -- forest and seashore -- and chose an 'owl' (a fun colour version!) and 'red fox' for my lady -- 'ocean tides' and 'flower' for daughter. Once again, I received great service from 'Lady Dragon', and four more of Vanessa's lovely, "nature-inspired", handcrafted, glass products -- which I'm sure my ladies will love, and much-enjoy wearing. If able to hold out, and not give in to the temptation of providing the gifts before, these pendants will be heading to Manning Park this summer, to become part of personal celebrations that'll take place when we're there. (Totally) not sure I'll be able to wait until then to share them though!!

This little charm put a huge smile on her face and it is one of the items I saw when I was at the store last month...(second of July 2019 that is.) This little charm completes the set I bought for her. I also saw the Canadian Maple Leaf in the store. I found myself wanting to wear one of them. This and one other item would complete a look that has come into my mind. In case your wondering, it's a ring, but it is not from the jade store. Nevertheless, it will be cool. This is the first item I have bought from The Jade Store, but it will not be the last. The one draw back that I have found ordering by smartphone is that the webpage is very slow. It took several trys to get to the pages I wanted, but found it. I will be ordering the medium size maple leaf this Friday. I look forwards to acquiring one soon. I can then carry around a small piece of Canada...Victoria Canada to be exact.

For a small gallery tucked in among lots of small shops and a stones throw from other, higher-end…read moregalleries, I was really bowled over by the selection and quality of the work carried by Eclectic! They carry a wide range of small paintings, mostly quite lovely landscapes in oil, acrylic or encaustic. Also an impressive selection of wood sculptures, ceramics, and glass. I was especially impressed with the many wooden bird carvings by Hermann Edler (one of which I bought!) and the ceramic "jug birds" by Gillian McMillan. Lots of jewelry too. Oh, don't skip by the card section without a good look--there are some dazzling hand crafted cards by several artists. This is a place where you can purchase lovely pieces without feeling like you're going to break the bank...plus you can walk into Eclectic and never feel like the staff are silently judging you on the likelihood that you can afford or even appreciate the works. The woman who owns Eclectic seems to genuinely care about the artists she carries and about the joy of looking at their achievements.
