My family and I were visiting Sitka for the first time last week & stopped in at The Cellar for…read moresome shopping. We all found several items to buy. As we're paying, I hear the woman at the cashier yell across the store to a kid. Telling him if he breaks it he bought it. I turned to see & it's my 10 yr. old staring back scared & wide eyed. He was actually headed towards me to ask me what the metal object was. I told him it was to cut candle wicks & asked him to put it back. The cashier continued to grumble as if she was upset. I politely told her there was no need to yell. She just proceeded to repeat "if you break it you bought it", as if there was something wrong with her, never making eye contact. She took my cash payment & then completely ignored me. Immediately as I turned to leave, she started speaking badly about me to her co- worker, RIGHT THERE INFRONT OF ME & OTHER CUSTOMERS! I couldn't believe it. The other employee, a woman, looks at me & I tell her that is completely inappropriate & she should not be treating customers like that. This second woman then ignored what I'm saying & starts gesturing with her hand towards the door while telling me "goodbye, have a nice day". She repeated this 3 times!! What an awful experience we had at the Cellar! With these 2 horrible women with horrid manners. We truly regret giving our business to this store. Never again!

They had the necklace clasp repaired in 2 days, but said they could not repair the bracelet clasp because of the material it was made out of. I asked them to just do what they could, and low and behold! A week later, I have my bracelet back, fixed. All of this for no charge. I strongly suggest going here if you are looking for friendly people who are extremely willing to help!

Absolutely gorgeous artwork can be found in this Russian centric Christmas shop. From stackable…read moredolls to ornate statues and hand painted bulbs and the list goes on and on. My only gripe about this business is the price which seems quite high and clearly is going after the visiting tourists. I am not an expert on price when it comes to this type of work but I clearly recognize beauty and craftsmanship when I see it and the merchandise they sell at this business oozes it! This is a must visit if you are a collector of fine Christmas ornamates and if you can afford it you will find yourself in Nirvana (:

I took an illegal picture here. Don't arrest me!…read more Random House carries the best collection of non-traditional nesting dolls that I saw in Alaska. It's worth a visit just to see sets like Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, Harry Potter, and the American presidents. Because everyone wants to take a picture and not actually buy the nesting dolls, the purveyors have had to put up a sign saying, "No photographs!" Thankfully I didn't notice the sign before I snapped away. They also had a nice supply of Russian Christmas ornaments and I bought one. Pay no attention to the Yelp map which maps Random House by its P.O. number, Random House is located on Lincoln St. along with all the other tourist shops.

For those who want a slightly different take home item other than the geo-graphic key chains, a small to medium sized nesting doll set is my recommendation.

Regrets - I need to decide whether to keep them or give 'em to the niece...sheesh, should've bought two!

I have to say that I am very disappointed and sad to read some of the previous reviews. My husband…read moreand I first came into contact with Baranof in 2021 by pure chance, and we have been so pleased with every interaction we have had. We are both in customer service and, after our interaction with Tom, we decided this would be our "jeweler" regardless of our home location in Texas. They have always been prompt in responding, and are quick to stand behind their products. I have needed some repair work to my ring (admittedly probably a little rough with it), and there has never been a question on getting it shipped out, fixed, and turned back around to me as soon as possible. In our business, it's always best to remember that there are always two sides to every story - or at least a little more background to consider. Take the opportunity to get to know this establishment, and their quality of work and relationships! Thank you all for your continued effort and assistance! The Flynn Family

Sitka Alaska Baranof jewelry store sold me a ring for $3,750. Had it professionally appraised by a…read morecertified appraiser when I got home. It appraised for $1,400 less than what I paid - And that was with the professional appraiser taking into consideration what is considered a fair jewelry store markup. 14k blue diamond ring. Diamonds rated as poor by the professional appraiser. High pressure sales tactics and misleading information. And saying you get their appraised value in the mail later is a huge Red Flag! I know better now. They know you have limited time to get back on the ship and they take advantage and rip you off. Buyer beware!

I sampled the salve on my hand on the way into the store and it made my hands look 10 years younger because it moisturized the wrinkles away - no exaggeration! It also wasn't overly greasy because I didn't leave a trail while shopping. It's true, that I could find something similar in many gift shops and on the ship - though I am skeptical that it was the same formula, nor did they have the discount if I bought 3 - like was offered in the store or online. When I took it home for my daughter to try on her eczema, it not only helped relieve the initial dry and cracking, but it's actually making the breakouts go away. Other things I've tried only relieved the symptoms but wouldn't keep it from spreading. I not only got the lotions, but I got a beautiful pewter bowl, and some really cute sea shell rings for myself, I got a great variety of gifts for everyone I needed to shop for! A great one-stop shop for tourists or locals!
