i could spend an hour in this place just looking at everything, mainly because i'm simple and all i…read moreneed is a room full of sparkly things to be entertained. there is some truly gorgeous, exquisite jewelry at the village silversmith. you can definitely come here and get a simple, basic new silver ring or toe ring or pair of earrings or charm or chain or whatever, but there are also ten tons of items with rocks and gems and all that pretty stuff. what's awesome is that it's all either really cheap or really reasonable. my boyfriend bought me a necklace with a star made of diamonds (you know what i'm talking about, they unfortunately showed up everywhere) at an expensive jewelry store. the necklace chain that came with it broke because they are jerks. i went into the village silversmith and they were SO HELPFUL in choosing a new chain. the original chain was very delicate and thin and sparkly and i wanted something as similar as possible. they helped me find something beautiful but more sturdy and suggested several lengths. they wanted me to get a chain in a different size, thinking it would look better, but weren't pushy when i said i wanted the slightly longer length. i appreciated that cause i know what i like, dammit, i just need help getting there. i super love places where the employees are so helpful but not at all pushy. it helps in a place like this, where you want 7 things (at the very least) and you're trying to narrow it down to 2 or 3. i have so many things from here that have stayed beautiful for as long as i've had them. i'm able to have so many pieces because they're so affordable. there are also locations in rockport which are equally helpful and beautiful and well-stocked. this is ABSOLUTELY worth a trip/visit.

The Flow parking app was glitchy so I just used the original meter. This location is a bit smaller and narrow in the aisles. Still a lot to look at and you can always walk out w a unique piece. Staff is always helpful and patient. I also saw Vanessa here another staff member who worked the Peabody location. Gloucester is a beautiful quaint town. Home of Gorton's frozen fish and of course great seafood and a beach. I definitely will be back to visit.

Very cute store right next to Walgreens in downtown Gloucester. Loads of pretty displays with…read moremermaids and other sea creatures all over the store. The woman working when I went in with my mother was super nice. I believe all the jewelry is handmade and there are some really cool items. I ended up buying what looks like a green sparkling cluster of grapes pendant and some cat earrings. My mother got me a pig bracelet which is super neat. I did find the earrings a bit hard to wear - struggled with fitting them in my ear and ended up giving them to my mother. I adore the bracelet - very unique. Prices are fantastic for cool and quirky jewelry. I can't wait to go back and pick up some Christmas gifts!

Sadly I did not read any reviews before bringing gold to this man. He told me the gold was not pure…read moreas it was overweight, then said he had it melted down and he would give me a much lower price than the market spot price. There was no paperwork regarding what he said the weight was nor a print report from the smelter, which I asked for. I expected to get the gold back in some form, but he said no and paid me the price I initially paid for it ten years ago. The ounce price is double as of today. My income is way below average, I could have used the spot price for my gold. Many times I've considered if he cheated me and I'm a fool, he did.

If you are visiting Gloucester there is a lot of Gloucester "stuff" here you'll probably enjoy. The owner and staff have always been friendly to me. Located in the middle of downtown on Main Street.

This Store is MAGICAL! It's like stepping into Narnia…read more I find it funny how bent up some people are because the wonderful girls who run the store have turned it into something more beautiful then it used to be. A long time ago this shop was just another generic hippie new age incense rock shop that sold ugly hippie clothing..and those are a dime a dozen. If that's a kind of shop you prefer, then unfortunately there's a store just like that across from this one. Now this store.. it's magical.. and dazzling..! They still have cool rocks and fossils, but girls behind the counter are so knowledgeable about the origins, meanings, and uses for each stone. They still sell clothes, but it's stylish clothes that are fair trade! Pretty clothes that don't make you look like you fell off a gypsy caravan haha. The back of the store they turned into a wonderful gallery space, with handmade watercolors and oil paintings. They're even creating amazing wire wrapped jewelry! One of the girls does amazing things with very old vintage keys! Everything is locally made! Oh! and they sell seashells! There was a store in Rockport with the flirty seashell captain, but he closed. One of these young ladies worked for him and decided to bring in the same quality shells he had. Theres a silver jewelry down the street who also sells the same exact shells.. but cost 5 times more.. ridiculous! Also.. for those ignorant customers.. This store has had the same owner for a while now, he just had the smarts to let these wonderful artists change up the look of the store to set them apart from those other stores. Thank you girls! -Karen

This store was so awesome when I stumbled upon it several years ago that it reignited my childhood…read morefascination in rocks and fossils. I poured over this store and its many incredible and beautiful specimen for more than an hour, while learning the histories of many rocks and fossils...and left with many great finds. I was so impressed by the owner's genuine passion and knowledge and the inspiring variety or stones and fossils that I decided to make a neighborhood children's museum of rocks, gems, and fossils back home. To that end I've driven thousands of miles throughout the Southwest gathering specimen and visiting rock shows, visiting top-ranked rock and fossil shops, had rocks shipped from around the world, etc. I don't know if this store is the same as it was 3 or 4 years ago when I visited, but in my mind it still stands out as one of the best shops I've ever discovered in the U.S.

I hope I can help others not make the same mistake.
