The Village Goldsmith

Have you ever had the «Pretty Women» experience where you walk into the shop and the people look you up and down questioning if you can afford their items? I guess I was not dress appropriately with my son because I knew that once I walk in there I wanted to walk out. I guess I was not the typical clientele. I wanted to get my gold bracelet fixed because I knew the link was gonna break off. I took off my bracelet and she told me that it would take a week for it to get fix and the rice was outrageous. A freaken week? They had to outsources the work therefore costing more if they do it inhouse. I didn’t get good vibes from the people and I left. Maybe she didn’t think I could afford jewelry. Oh well I went across the street and was found the owner easier to talk to and felt like they really appreciate my business. They fixed my bracelet in an hour and fixed it exactly the way I wanted it instead of a week and cost half the price. Would not recommend anyone here.

I bought a watch and needed some links taken out, so I took it to this place. They did it extremely quick (I think I was there for about 5 minutes, total) and they only charged me $ 10. $ 10 might seem like a bit much for a link removal, but I have been charged more in the past, so I thought it was a good deal. The staff were all extremely nice and polite, and although I wasn’t there for anything else, it seemed like they had a pretty huge collection of jewelry as well. So if I ever need jewelry or more links taken out of a watch, I will absolutely be going back to this place!

The quality of work done was excellent — wedding rings soldered together ($ 45). My only complaint was that the work took four days and was ready a day later than they promised. In addition, I called the day it was expected at noon and was told it would be ready later in the day and that they would call me. They never called to tell me it would not be ready on time — just left me waiting around all afternoon trying to plan my other errands around it. They did call me when it was ready, but an apology for wasting my afternoon the previous day would have been nice. The people manning the shop were very nice.

I have a beautiful gold bracelet that belonged to my mom. The clasp has been broken for years and I wanted to start wearing it as a daily piece. The trouble was that the clasp needed a piece custom-​made, which is why I avoided having it repaired for so long. I brought it in to Village Goldsmith and I was blown away by their workmanship. It was exactly what I wanted, and now I wear the bracelet almost daily. They were able to design a new clasp piece just from my description, fabricate it in matching gold, and make it easy to operate one-​handed. It’s stunning, and I cannot recommend them enough for their care with my heirloom, and their creativity in designing a new fastener. I plan to bring in more pieces that need TLC, and maybe buy something from their beautiful collection of jewelry. Five stars for sure.

My wife and I recently purchased watches for each other here. Outstanding service before and after the sale. Highly recommend.

This store is very friendly and it was a pleasant visit. I got two of my watch batteries replaced and they cost me only $ 10. I would go to this place again as long as they are still here.

I stopped in because I needed my wedding ring repaired. It was bent pretty badly and I hadn’t been able to wear it for months. The service was friendly and quick and my ring looks as good as it did 9 years ago. :)

I love this place too. You can always count on professional service and help with choosing the perfect gift as well as quality repair of your jewelry. Very friendly, great staff. They are the real deal.

I love this place. They are so professional and helpful it’s amazing. My fiancé brought in my engagement ring that needed custom made wedding bands and they not only found a ring that matched perfectly, they cut it to fit and soldered it for such a great price. I’m always thrilled with everything they do and they do it with a great amount of precision and care without charging a ridiculous amount of money.
