Village Goldsmith Gallery

My fiancé and I recently had two pieces of jewelry customized for our bridal set! Jim created a wedding band from a picture we drew that is exactly what we wanted, and hadn’t found at all the area Jewelers. I brought in a vintage engagement ring that we wanted to add to to make it more personal. Jim found a beautiful Diamond to match one we had, and the new creation is beautiful and meaningful; combining the past with the present and future! Jim is an awesome person to deal with great ideas; his prices are very fair, and his turnaround time is Fast! We are happy to have found Jim for our jewelry needs and have a few smaller gemstone replacement projects to work with him on. The other artists who display work in his shop are creative and of high quality! There are paintings, pottery, notecards, and jewelry by various artists.
Make sure to give Samantha a pat when you go in to look around; Jim’s very sweet lab!

My wife and I went to Jim at Village Goldsmith to have him create her engagement ring and wedding band. We had a general idea of the design and a family stone. He was able to create an AMAZING one of a kind ring set that was exactly what we wanted. People are always stopping her in stores and everywhere we go to say how beautiful and unique her ring is. We loved his work so much, we went back to get a necklace and earrings to match. If you are looking for a custom piece of jewelry this is the place to come!

Village Goldsmith Galleries is more than a jewelry store. It’s an art gallery much like the «League of NH Craftsmen» stores that seem to be everywhere but in the NH Seacoast region. It was the art glass in the window that drew me inside, but there was more to see. Jim, the owner of the store, will take your old unloved gold jewelry, melt it down, and turn it into something totally new. If you’re into recycling and you’ve inherited some old pieces of jewelry that have sentimental value but aren’t your style, here’s an interesting option for you. He’s also got work on display from other jeweler/​artists, so there’s a wide variety to choose from. This store is everything that Kay Jewelers isn’t. If you’re passing through Dover, this is the kind of place that you’ll want to investigate.
