I took my batch of surplus gold to a few places in town to get quotes, since gold is selling for…read moresuch a high price. Lucine at Skyline Gallery was referred to me be several people at our church, so I took my treasures to her last. At a lot of the other places, they wouldn't even take silver, and many others weren't interested in the broken pieces (I inherited a lot, from broken stuff to heirloom-quality, in a mix of metals), but Lucine was happy to buy it all. She bought everything from my mother-in-law's broken, gem-less earring backs to my old disney silver coins and baby spoons. Plus, she recognized the stones in the more valuable pieces, unlike every single other place I took the jewelry, where only diamonds mattered. She was positively meticulous in her pricing and estimation! Her quote for many of the items was up to four times as much as some of the other places, and fully TWICE as much as the top quotes I got from the most generous pawn shops. I couldn't believe it! Plus, Skyline Gallery is a beautiful place. When I was standing in the line at a pawn shop on First Avenue there were people with guns, a guy twitching while looking around like a lunatic, and a couple of guys smoking a joint in the parking lot, a guy with an obviously stolen car radio trying to convince them that he hadn't stolen it, and the whole scene just felt unsafe and downright scuzzy. You certainly won't find that here. It was a really clean, honest, and ethical exchange in an absolutely beautiful store, and I left feeling great. I also have to say that their collection of jewelry and treasures is unbelievable! It's almost like a curated museum, and the owners clearly know their craft. Lucine has a metallurgy degree from the University of Arizona, if I remember correctly, and they know all the local jewelers, latest techniques, etc. I got the feeling that they were both knowledgable and passionate - a wonderful combination that makes walking into their gallery an adventure and a learning experience all in one. Plus, they aren't snobby at all. They were just as passionate about the gold-plated chain I was interested in as the solid chain, and were totally up front about the perks and drawbacks of every choice. I never felt pressured, and got the impression that they know how to work with any client, from lavish millionaires to the average Joe looking for a spectacular engagement ring on a budget. In any event, whether you are looking to buy or sell, their obvious fairness, generosity, and ethics make this THE place to buy or sell the most precious things in your jewelry cabinet.

The moment you walk into Skyline Gallery, owned and operated by Lucine Dirtadian and Ursula…read moreRodgers, you are taken aback by the beauty, variety and creativity of their inventory. They have a lot of art glass, wall art and other decorative items and have some really cool practical art as well although most of my business with them has been with their jewelry. I bought my wife's ingagement ring from them, a beautiful ring from a designer in Seatle. The size of diamond I needed for the ring was out of my price range so they said they'd see what they could find and get back to me. A short time later they called me. They went out of their way and found a used diamond of great cut and clarity in just they size I needed for much less than what it was worth. The ring/diamond combination turned out better than I dared to hope. Fast forward a little bit and my wedding is fast approaching. I decide I want to buy the matching wedding band. Only problem is the designer stopped making that particular design. Lucine and Ursula have a solution...they make a ring. This is two weeks before my wedding mind you. The proposed design called for a few small diamonds which were donated to the cause by my future in laws out of some family jewelry. The ring they made was absolutely beautiful! And so much more meaningful. These people truly know their craft and rarely will you ever experience the level of customer service they provide. I would recommend Skyline Gallery to anyone

Since my first visit to the Art House Centro-- during an exploratory trip preceding my move from…read moreConnecticut to Tucson-- I've kept coming back to the place, as much to browse for fun as to buy anything, and sometimes to savor Mexican food in the restaurant in the courtyard (preferably within view of the turtle pond in its ring of contented-looking mesquite trees). Bright, hard-edged southwestern colors prevail in the shops within, where local artists' works are for sale, and since each shop is a separate business the place is a labyrinth of little rooms, each room giving onto the next, yet more eccentric one before you know it. The merchandise offered, room-to-room, includes not only the artworks but also books, gewgaws and greeting cards; old countercultural records and posters; vintage clothing; wines from Arizona and sodas from Mexico; and distinctive southwestern edibles such as multihued transparent lollipops with spider and scorpion husks inside (great fun for the kids!). I do highly recommend a thorough browse, or even a souvenir-shopping spree, in the Art House Centro to anyone with a few hours in downtown Tucson to spare.

And they're extremely kind to help you with any questions you may have. I highly recommend checking out their auctions that they have frequently on their website. You'll find some real treasures at affordable prices. I really believe they can accommodate almost any budget. And Medicine Man has artists come in all the time to do lectures. You should follow them on social media. Their YouTube channel is amazing. I suggest their Instagram.... What am I saying!
