I finally found an awesome lighthouse paint by numbers that I snagged for my sister in law. Though it was a bit pricey, I felt good supporting a local business vs Michaels. While I was shopping I could hear the owner on the phone with a customer assisting them and not rushing to get them to hang up which is very nice. Once I checked out she offered to wrap it for me with no extra charge. I thought it was such a special touch. She also has an adorable dog that was behind the counter who was a friendly old lady. As an animal lover this is always bonus points in my life. It seems as she hosts some type of events, has some space in the back not sure if it's for crafts? But worth checking out! Plenty of parking!

Royal Jewelers across the street may carry twenty times as much inventory (at twenty times the average price) but I rarely find what I'm looking for there whereas I never seem to leave QP without the perfect gift in my pocket.

I love Kay, the owner, and I love this boutique…read more I have been buying my partners and family gifts here for over 5 years and it's the only jeweler shop where I know I'm guaranteed to find something funky or elegant that suites my and my loved ones eccentric yet sophisticated tastes. Just for cultural perspective I'm a 41 year old healthcare/tech entrepreneur, I am in the heart of the art, maker and innovation community. I live with 2 younger tech professionals, a programer who works in startups, and who is also a profesional electronic music DJ on the side and the other who creates high end audio systems as his day job and LARPing events for children and adults on the side. My landlord lives in the same building and she works as artist's business coach and is a local art impresario and her partner is a ex financier turned Buddhist priest, their single roommate is a professional painter who also runs gallery events and has a weekly local television show about art, culture, tech and politics. We all live and work in the Cambridge/Somerville area. In other words I have plenty of access to high end jewelry here and yet I drive 30 min each way to see Kay, and get her expert counseling and amazing fashion forward pieces. Her stock is amazing, there are items that are conservative enough to wear to premier healthcare workshops and government meetings, even formal inaugural balls, and items that you could wear to a punk/electronic music venue in Brooklyn. And what's amazing is many of the pieces are so classy and so artistic you could actually wears the same pieces to both of these seemingly polar extremes. At least a third to over a half of her stock is made in the US and some are even more local to our region. And some is also from overseas, I was actually treated to be introduced to one of her artist/suppliers from Tel Aviv as I was leaving yesterday, he makes beautiful hand wrought silver items... incredibly elegant and gorgeous! Every time I visit (and sometimes I visit multiple times to make a single purchase as I'm discriminating and often have a hard time choosing) Kay spends between 30 min to an hour helping me find the right pieces. I pull up pictures of my partner so Kay can help me match color/style to my partners hair, completion and clothing style. She then helps me decide on wrapping and presentation and then send me home confident and excited to make my special ones explode with happiness. I hope you will be as happy as I am, but I will be shocked if you aren't!

Super cute "accessories" (stitch markers, bags, etc). I also found everything reasonably priced for how high quality they are. I'm comfortable here as a queer person who is self taught in knitting and occasionally asks beginner questions. Lucy in particular helped me once with an after thought heel and turned me on to German short row heels. Game changer guys. They also have social events that I'd like to attend when I'm not working, which all look so fun. I love their community and you can book help time, which makes a huge difference in my confidence trying new things. I cannot recommend them enough.

But I finally made it a priority and am so glad I did. This is a must-visit, whether you live in the area or are visiting nearby. Ravenstone is absolutely gorgeous inside, with the friendliest, most knowledgeable staff. It's an oasis in downtown Lynn. And it's bigger than I expected, with the main shop on the first floor and then an upstairs area selling books, a room for magick items, and space for readings. The first floor has an impressive array of crystals/gemstones, candles, jewelry, beauty, bath and body items, and more. The candle collection is lovely and picked up an exquisite vetiver and tonka candle. I also bought the most perfect piece of amethyst. I highly recommend visiting Ravenstone and I cannot wait to return.
