I shopped around the area and Cassandra's shop had the best price and quality in the area. I got a silver bracelet there for $30 CAD, they even resized it for me to fit my wrist since I wanted a tighter fit. I got also a custom silver necklace with my name written in cursive here, the name and chain came to about $120-130 CAD. I'm very happy with the items and the service that I received. Everyone at the store really took their time to help me create the perfect necklace that I was looking for, from the font style and size, to the length of the chain, I requested extra loops to be added to the chain so that I could wear it at different lengths and they were able to accommodate that request as well. Aside from being a wonderful jelewry place, Cassandra also rescues and rehome chihuahuas here. I definitely recommend checking out the store, you could end up with beautiful jelewry and maybe even a new furry friend.

He has an outstanding reputation and would NEVER sell you anything but the highest quality silver. He's a great guy who's been in business for many years. We have bought all sorts of silver jewelry from him over the years. He has a large collection in his small space. He guarantees what he sells and will fix anything if needed. This year, I bought a man's thick bracelet that fit my small wrist perfectly. His shop is not the easiest to find. He is in a palapa just north of Daquiri Dick's or the Blue Shrimp on Olas Altas. His business is called Paraiso de Flor. Just look for the small sign outside his business.

If you're in Puerto Vallarta and appreciate craftsmanship, heritage, and genuinely kind service,…read moreyou have to visit Alberto's Jewelry. My wife and I stopped in while wandering town and had the pleasure of meeting Edson, the third-generation jeweler in the family. He shared the story of how his grandfather, Alberto, founded the business many years ago, how his father carried it forward, and how he and his brother Emersson now proudly run it. There's something special about buying from a family that truly lives its craft. Edson also told us about their second shop a couple of streets away, so of course we wandered over. That's where I spotted a few pieces that really caught my eye. We meant to circle back... but as vacation goes, we ended up on the other side of town and ran out of time. No problem at all. I messaged them on Instagram, and Emersson immediately replied saying he'd be happy to bring the necklace to where we were staying. That level of service alone deserves applause. He showed up right as we were having dinner, discreetly stepped aside with me, pulled out his credit card machine, and within minutes we had finalized everything. Seamless. Professional. Incredibly accommodating. I should mention too, the pieces are very fairly priced for quality silver and original designs. I walked back to our table and put on my new necklace right there. It's a beautiful silver piece, originally designed by grandfather Alberto himself. Knowing the history behind it makes it even more meaningful. We'll absolutely be doing more business with them, and Emersson let us know they're happy to ship to our home in the LA area. Old-world craftsmanship with modern customer service. Love Alberto's. 5 stars!

Since I had bought so much, he ended up giving it to me for free. If you're in the area, definitely stop here! They even give you free beer while you browse!

I bought a fire opal n silver necklace w matching earrings, they started at $2,000 I didn't want to spend that kind of money as I already have too much jewelry of all types, the dude was following me for so long n finally offered me an offer I could not refuse, he threw in a beautiful multicolor bracelet n lowered the price to $790. The following day, I tried to wear my pink necklace, it fell apart because 1 link was not welded properly, I called Aviles, they were closed Sunday n open just 1/2 a day Monday. needless to say I was very upset as we were going home Tuesday morning. I love the bracelet n wanted a matching multicolor necklace, I went into this Moon n Sun store located inside the flea market, Jorge, the owner was so friendly but not too overbearing, he offered to fix my pink necklace for free, on top of that he offered to remove 2 links also for free so my bracelet would fit perfectly, provided I of course buy the multicolor necklace for an unbeatable price of $350. Jorge was the nicest n most courteous person, you know you won't get ripped off!! The following day I returned to pick up the repaired jewels, I met his son who owned the jewel store a few doors down, he offered to sell me a matching multicolor earrings for $45, I regretted not buying it then, later I bought a fake silver w real opal on the malecon for $10. So anybody wanting to buy beautiful opal jewels, come here, this jeweler designed unique jewels n you don't have to haggle too much. I was so grateful I found him as it would be impossible to get the necklace repaired back home. If I come back to puerto Vallarta next year, I'll definitely come back for more. A solid 5 stars!!!

It's far from being anything fancy!! With the old equipment, benches, and the like, it actually looks like a jeweler's shop from a distant past, maybe something that might have been described in an old Charles Dickens novel!! But despite the setting, and all, the craftsmanship that's performed, and products produced there, can be very new and exciting, with antique and modern designs, and creations truly unique, one-of-a-kind in nature, and beautiful. Edmundo Zermeno, and son make and sell (mostly silver) jewelry, and as well, stock and sell precious, and semi-precious stones, beads, and etc. They will fashion 'on demand', and do most any kind of jewelry repairs, renjuvenations, and the like. We have bought several silver pieces crafted by them over the years -- silver pendants, with/without semi-precious stones - silver rings, with/without both precious and semi-precious stones - and have also had repairs done to pendant chains, rings, and the like, purchased here at home and elsewhere in Mexico. For us, it's always been quality work, at 'real' (very reasonable) prices!! It's certainly not difficult to recommend Eddie's Factory to others!!

What began as an exciting purchase quickly turned into a 9-week ordeal just to receive the original order, an unacceptable delay by any standard. When the item finally arrived, it was damaged, and that's when things went from bad to worse. Customer service has been consistently unresponsive and ineffective. Despite multiple attempts to resolve the issue, I was met with vague answers, endless excuses, and ultimately no real support. Even more concerning, Sebastian Segovia, the Head of Customer Service, was involved and still failed to provide any meaningful resolution. To make matters worse, the company initially offered complimentary piece as compensation, only to backtrack and withdraw that offer without explanation. Since then, communication has essentially stopped altogether. The lack of accountability extends to the top. CEO Pedro Avilés has been entirely absent and unresponsive throughout this process, which speaks volumes about the company's leadership and priorities. Between the excessive delays, damaged goods, broken promises, and complete lack of follow-through, this has been one of the worst customer experiences I've had. Proceed with extreme caution.

On the corner of Calles Carranza and Vallarta in Old Town, Taxco Exporta Jewelry is one such shop. I affectionately nicknamed my GF "Mexico's favorite customer" because despite being in a culture where commerce is based on negotiation, she cannot help but pour over merchandise with glee, exclaiming "It's SO BEAUTIFULLLL!!!" And yeah, I'm pretty much fugazi at that point. Bargaining position: blown! So was the sitch at Taxco Exporta Jewelry. We were drawn inside by the dramatic silver sculpted animals and mermaids and found lots of pretty, sparkly things to delight her. The sculpted work in particular is astounding and powerful. We spoke with Eric (pronounced the Spanish way), who explained that the larger pieces are bonded silver over a porcelain figurine, touched up in places with paint. The results are stunning. My GF tried on some beautiful pieces, necklaces and really large rings, mainly. Prices are in USD and, while low by US standards, still exceeded our souvenir budget. We'd already picked up a ring by Mexican artist Sergio Bustamante, which she absolutely loves. Eric did try his best to find a price that would suit us for the piece she liked the most because, you know, it was "SO BEAUTIFULLLL!!!", lol. It just wasn't the right time for us. On our next visit to PV, it's likely we will bring some more USD and revisit Taxco Exporta!
