This is the widest selection of stones I've seen in Lincoln; they have a wide selection of pearls…read more(saltwater; freshwater; Edison; Tahitian; some brown ones); a whole vitrine of sterling silver including some unusual settings, bangles and unusual chains; a few colored diamonds; peridot; opals; turquoise; amethyst; agate; garnet; picture and dalmatian jasper; sodalite; lapis lazuli; a few rubies and a few sapphires; even amber. Probably emeralds; it was a lot! Ask what the stones are; lab-created stones are not separately labeled, and the sterling case had a couple of CZ's, though the jeweler was happy to tell us when we asked. I bought a necklace of carved semiprecious stones and my companion a 20" strand of lapis lazuli beads. They were happy to polish the silver findings for me, and pricing was fair. We really enjoyed speaking with the owners; we will certainly be back. Do note if you do Black Friday shopping that they're closed Thanksgiving weekend Thurs-Sunday.

They built trust with me. I don't understand the product very well, so trust is nearly everything.read more

Saved twice by this jeweler! I was told earlier this year by…read morea very well known Omaha jewelry store (owned by a billionaire) that my wedding band was unfixable. It is a platinum diamond infinity band that was bent into a severe oval when I lifted a heavy box during our move. I was told by the large jeweler that too many prongs were damaged and it would need a new setting- which they offered to sell me. Fast forward a few months- I ended up stopping at Elder Jeweler on a whim. The jeweler listened to my story and while we spoke he was working on my ring. By the time we were done talking he had bent it back into shape. He was basically showing me that the other place was just trying to sell me a setting. He gave me a quote to repair the broken prongs and reset the diamonds. It was very reasonable. They told me it would take a week, however they had it done in just a few days and it was done on the low end of the estimate. I was more than impressed by how new my ring looked! Fast forward 6 months- my daughter has a religious medallion that she wears when she runs. It means a lot to her as she has some health issues and the medallion is blessed. The bail broke this morning and she has a meet tomorrow. I ran it over to Elder. They did not promise that they could repair it. They said they don't normally do same day repairs. The sales associate said she would talk to the jeweler and see what could be done. 5 minutes later I heard him call to the associate and tell her that "the chain will break before the bail fails". He had soldered it shut and it is repaired to new! I am so grateful to have this local shop. They are very trustworthy and do fine quality work! Thank you Elder Jewelry!

The Corner Co-op is awesome. I spent weeks going through antique stores looking for reasonably…read morepriced large furniture pieces, with no luck, until I stumbled into the co-op. The co-op carries the antiques of around 9 different dealers, and as a result there is a wide range of options, and a wide range of prices. One of the benefits of the co-op is that the dealers are also the rotating cashier staff so you can often haggle their prices, or have them contact off-site dealers to negotiate. If you are checking out an especially pricey piece, many dealers will even let you pay in installments. Their hours can be inconvenient, but if you can navigate the schedule it is extremely worth the effort.

We love to hit antique shops, antique malls, thrift, and consignment shops. Platte Valley Antique Mall, Cafe & Pub in nearby Greenwood NE was probably our favorite stop. Followed closely by Vintage Village Antique Mall, Aardvark Antiques, Burlington Antiques, and Timeless Treasures in Lincoln NE. All of these shops are worth stopping at and checking out! We really didn't get to Omaha NE itself, but there's always next time...! We only ran into one shop that we would not recommend. Lake Manawa Antiques in Councill Bluffs IA... Look it up. Lol

i have never visited a pawn shop before given the fact that i'm 20. i had a family emergency that…read morerequired getting a lot of money quickly. so my boyfriend & i decided to give it a go as a last resort. We didn't know what we were doing & so we asked the lady at this pawn shop to explain. She gave us an attitude the whole time. We asked her when the first interest payment was due she said at the end of the month. Then after everything was signed , she said i have a week before it would be $6 then two weeks it would be $12. everything was all signed so i couldn't get my items back because they have a 48 hour policy. they are scammers & scumbags who want to take advantage of people in need. when we went in we noticed most of their clients were mentally ill, chronically ill, or down on their luck. we went back before the week ended & the guy tried charging me $12. They thought since we were young they would be able to scam us but i was so upset i told him "no the lady right next you told me it would be $6 for a week." & the lady just sat there looking at me blankly and tried to lie. the guy was like well yes you are under the first week mark okay. Then the next incident is that they have a sign that says you can pay the interest off with a card. you can't ! it's always a catch with these people , you can pay off the interest with card if you wait over a month . overall a horrible place with horrible people. they have signs all over saying "however you treat us the better price you get" when they themselves are horrible people who treat non white people rudely. would never ever recommend.

fun to work with and lots of great stuff to look at! Super friendly people and very knowledgeable!read more
