It has gotten expensive and less selection. Don't think I will come back here. I use to come here the last 10 years.

You'll probably get the best deals on Indian jewelry in the entire tristate area. Ironically, places in jersey will rip you off for the same jewelry so they can receive up to 3x in profit margins. These prices actually are around the same price range to what you would pay in a big city in India. I've been coming here for about a few months now and am happy with the selection in the store. There is a bit of a cultural disconnect with the staff in the store just because in India, people will hover around you in stores; and that's not how things are in the US and people may get uncomfortable with this kind of service. It's not bad, just one thing to note before you enter the store. read more

This store is so cute and literally has all the accessories you can think of. Whether you're looking for gold, silver or anything in between, they have it. They have gaudy items, as well as simple and dainty items. They also have really cute purses, pins & brochesand scarfs. Granted you'll only get a few wears before they start to turn, they are worth the price. read more

What a FUN store! Okay, it's really cheap costume jewelry, some of which is very detailed jeweled bug pins, but there's a huge selection of earrings, necklaces, and bracelets. Some of it is extremely gaudy, but because the selection is HUGE, there's something for everyone. There are small, tasteful cubic zirconia earrings, and giant jeweled hoops. There are rings and sets of crystal necklaces and earrings. Also tiaras. And faux pearls. Earrings, pins, etc are mostly $7 each. They also have a GIANT selection of clip-on earrings. My mother does not have pierced ears, and was happy to find a pretty pair of earrings with faux mabé pearls. She doesn't like wearing her real jewelry anymore, because better safe than sorry. I bought two pairs of earrings, and also something else that I later saw in a different store a few blocks away for more than DOUBLE the price! Smh. Needless to say, I went back and bought a couple more :D On the other side are jewelry and purses with a distinctive Indian flair. The pix that I took on the first visit must still be on my mother's phone, lol. read more

I've been coming to this store for years. They are located aroud the corner from Herald Square. They used to have another store a few years ago, but that one closed. So, I am glad this location is still around. If you are looking for trendy neclace and earring sets, dangling earrings and smaller ones, pierced or clip-ons earrings, bracelets, pins, hair accessories, rings, scarves, they have it all. They have a very wide selection of costume jewelry. There is not much service, however. When you walk in, you pick up the small basket to shop and put items in so you help yourself. And then you go to the counter to pay. There was one guy on the floor, but he was not a greeter. Maybe if you need help reaching something high up on the wall. If they were more welcoming and friendly, I would give them a higher rating. I get the impression they may have a problem with theft...so maybe that is the weird vibe that turns me off. They are always busy, so expect that. But the most important thing, their prices are reasonable. This is why I continue to come back over the past years. You will see the same thing in a department store for three times the price. So I like the prices the most. read more

Cute and affordable jewelery if you appreciate Indian styles of jewelery. It is costume jewelry. That being said, they will intently watch you while you're shopping if you're not Indian. An employee was rude to me and the older gentleman behind the register ain't gaf ‍ There are more stores in the area (next door , across the street etc.) with good customer service. read more

Love this place. Every time I come to ny this is my first stop. Prices are out of this world

Great store great prices. Love it. Costume jewelry and hair supplies for less. Great place

I love this store because for me it evokes the streets of Bombay (Colaba, Bandra etc.) and its jewelry definitely has an Indian flair/influence, especially upstairs. I believe it's owned by Gujaratis. The selection is great and for a very fair price point. I saw earrings for as low as $2. The majority of earrings were $5.50. Bracelets seemed to range from $4-$9. I think the store could improve by having more mirrors displayed. I like that you get a little basket to keep the earrings in. The service I received was very good in the sense that as I was buying a $4 bracelet, the person working there noticed that one tiny crystal had come off. And then he grabbed another piece for me but saw that one also had a very minor issue. He then said I should grab something else but honestly the blemishes were SO acute I didn't mind and he ended up giving me both bracelets for the price of one. I just appreciated the honesty of the seller as he did not want to sell a product that was less than perfect! It was refreshing to see that attention to detail and customer care. read more

Biggest store I've been to where everything is wholesale and you can buy in bulk. I was just buying for myself and my friends back home but it was amazing all the variety they have. Necklaces, rings, earrings galore!!! All at a reasonable price! Be prepared to spend more than your average time here because there is so much to see! read more

So many to choose from! Drove all the way from DC, and it was worth it! Going back this Spring!

Years ago this was the best place to shop for costume jewelry. Now there's nothing to buy except Indian jewelry. Most Well dressed New Yorkers prefer the kind of jewelry you used to sell. I've visited your store several times since you moved and couldn't find a thing to buy. In the past I always bought at least 10 items each time I came, read more

If you are looking for nice costume pieces this is a good place to start. There are both pierced and clip on earing as well as tierras, pis and braclets. There are two levels but the store does not have an elevator. The store is located near the 34th street station close to south east entrance. One thing I have noticed the prices vary in the weekend. I will be going back soon read more

How did I not find this palace sooner?!?!?!???? Any place where you can buy sparkling jewelry for under $5 is simply superb. I got two sets of earrings with matching necklaces, $8 for each set, and I have gotten so many compliments on them! The main floor has mostly earrings, some bangles, bracelets, pins and clutches. Clutches were about $20 each. They also have a wide variety of Clip-On earrings!! So nice for people who do not have their ears pierced. Upstairs they have a wide variety of sets, many for $8. Their selection of scarves is also impressive, many different colors and prints. The quality of the scarves is cheap, but for $3 - $8 what else would you expect? They also have a lot of rings, organized by size and price. The sizes range from 5 to 10, it's rare to see such a wide variety. They also have a bunch of hair clips. I get tons of compliments on the first one I bought which is very sparkly so I recently bought a second one. In terms of style I found the variety of jewelry to range from classy to silly looking, which is by no means a bad thing. For times when you want some silly looking jewelry or buying for a little girl this is a great place when you don't want to spend a ton of money. This is definitely my favorite place hands down for inexpensive jewelry. read more

This is one of the best kept secrets of NY!!! It looks like a wholesale place, but they actually sell retail too!! Great variety of accessories ranging from earrings, necklaces, bangles, belts, rings, brooches, etc, at unbelievable price! I buy most of my blings here and people think I pay a lot for them!! Seriously, I've been stopped by strangers more than few times asking me where I got my accessories from!Great place to buy gifts for your friends, they'll love you and they don't need to know the price! :-) They have lots of kitschy ugly accessories too, but if you really look, you will find some AMAZING find, trust me! I stopped buying from other stores, the price is cheaper than Claire's Boutique, H&M, and Forever 21. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I bet you'll end up staying at least 30 minutes, at least!!! read more

This place is two stories and has a TON of jewelry!! Everything's pretty cheap too, btw. They let you try on a bunch of stuff unlike some other places with their huge signs of "DON'T try anything on!!" Haha. I didn't get anything since I was looking for something very specific, but they've got a lot to choose from if you're just looking for some jewelry. Oh, and they also have size 5 rings which was nice to see!! read more

Really wanted to like this place, but I was made to feel like a thief for no reason. The two gentleman who stood at the far side of each aisle scrutinized every move I made so intensely that I couldn't focus on the merchandise. Instead, I stopped moving my hands and placed them in front of my body so they were visible at all times. I wasn't expecting gracious service, but an expectation of common courtesy doesn't seem like too much to ask. I walked two doors north and bought a lovely pair of earrings from staff that treated me like a customer rather than a potential criminal. read more

No refunds or exchanges. I would have given this place 4 stars except for 2 things. One the prices have been going up lately. The earrings are now $3.50 which is still cheap but based on the quality and other shops around I feel like they are getting too high. A pin/brooch is $4.00. I liked some hair clips and they were $9.00. Be careful what you buy here. I got home and had some earrings that were broken but as I said no refunds or exchanges. So when you buy junk, you get junk. The other thing that really irked me was after shopping for a while, I was waiting to ask the guy a question (and no one was in line), and after he finished with the lady he was helping he told me he wouldn't help me as I had cut the line (which I hadn't since it hadn't been there prior). He refused to help me and made a big deal out of it. He then later did the same thing to another lady that was waiting when she hadn't cut also. Very rude man with nothing better to do. Especially considering I've been there multiple times and bought a good amount of stuff (numerous necklaces for my 7 bridesmaids to choose from). read more

A friend introduced me to this place about 10 years ago and I have been shopping here ever since. In that time, I've learned what to buy and what not to buy because frankly all costume jewelry is not created the same. I try to buy heavier pieces because those tend to be the ones that last the longest. I also coat everything I buy from them with a thin coat of clear nail polish to help protect the finish, since most of their stuff is a silver-ish coating over nickel or copper and it begins to show pretty quickly if you don't. The downstairs houses most of the earrings and bracelets as well as cuff links and tie pins for the guys. Last week I discovered that they started selling evening bags as well, and they keep these behind the counter on the first floor. The second floor has a lot of jewelry sets, scarves, sunglasses, jewelry boxes, makeup, incense and drug paraphenalia (errr, for tobacco use, of course!) I found jewelry sets for my bridesmaids and managed to find my headpiece for my wedding here this weekend. The tiara I purchased is an almost exact copy of the one I tried on at David's Bridal for a fraction of the cost (like DBs was triple digits and mine was barely a double digit). read more

I stumbled upon this shop maybe six years ago and have been going here a few times per year ever since. It's my go-to for costume jewelry. Anybody who spends a bunch of money on costume jewelry is insane in my opinion. I get compliments all the time on earrings I purchase from here for less than $4 a pair. Do it. read more

Why did I wait so long to visit this place?! Forget Forever21 and H&M for your inexpensive, disposable jewelry fetish. Earring Plaza is all you need. My roommate has been coming here for years to pick up cheap jewelry and I meant to go, but never did until recently. Shame, shame on me! I'm in love with the Amrita Singh jewelry line but I'm not so in love with their prices. Luckily, the Earring Plaza is there fill my Indian inspired jewelry void. And with earrings and bracelets starting at $3, there's really no excuse for you to not shop here either. read more

VERY inexpensaive costume jewelry (and some of it shows its low quality). But if you look, you can find earrings, pierced and not, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and little decorative boxes, eyeglass cases, pillboxes, etc., which are rather nice. They almost all seem to sell for under $10, usually under $5 (in 2006!). Imported from India, China, etc. One wonders what they cost the manufacturer--and how little those who actually make them are paid. Recommended. read more

When I first moved to NYC and was only a poor intern and college student this place was the holy grail of cheap jewelry! You found unique but cheaply made jewelry items for $3 or less. It's the same quality as the jewelry you find at Forever 21 or H&M. Yes, after a while those bracelets or earrings would tarnish but only after numerous times of wearing. This jewelry got me through many drunken bar nights in college at 21 years old. If I also lost a pair of earnings, they could easily be replaced. I also bought Christmas and birthday presents here for my family and friends ... discount diva! read more

This stuff is cheap and it looks cheap... Maybe I'm bitter because they told me I couldn't bring my drink in. But COME ON!! Considering what you're selling - dollar apiece 'jewelry' - I wouldn't think my drink w/ a cap is a big problem... Jerks!! read more

Great selection at crazy low prices. This is definitely a costume jewelry store. They are lacking simple/basic offerings (like studs). They do not let you try on the pieces, as was stated in other reviews. read more

Who knew Earrings Plaza had such a devoted fan base? I myself have been introducing almost every single one of my friends to this store which is packed with cheap jewels. As those before me have mentioned, a personal favorite of mine are the earrings for $3.25... and I'm not just talking about your standard cheap hoops, but rhinestones galore. Every time I am headed to a wedding I make sure to hit this place up for some serious sparkle. I have also purchased some really amazing Kenneth Jay Lane-esque animal rings and bracelets. My favorite recent score is a huge guazy scarf that features two pouncing leopards and looks like it's definitely in the $100+ price range... I only paid $6. Seriously, if it's a jewelry trend, Earrings Plaza usually has it in some fashion for prices that are a steal. And it's two floors! Remember to get in early, they close at 7 on weekdays and 6:30 on weekends and bring about $30 because you will want to $pend. read more

Such Exotic Diversity in the styles of pieces & inventory. 2 floors of all things from traditional indian jewelry, current trends, ethnic fare, and even pagent crowns staffs and trinkets. Its no secret, its always packed with happy shoppers you can really go in there and lose your mind and wallet. I have jewelry I havent even worn yet but I still cant walk by with out going in getting something. A necklace, a bracelet, a scarf, a something. Thier stuff is so just pretty. And it seems to be family owned by a hard working group of indian people. read more

Don't come looking for good quality, well made jewelry or you'll be disappointed. Wide variety of costume jewelry. Dirt cheap prices. Well organized store. read more

I love Earrings Plaza!! I've been a fan for 6 years now when I first went there to buy jewelry for my High School prom. Big selections at a great prices. So many selectrion to choose from. Earrings, necklaces, bracelets, hair pieces, just so many things!! I mean it's two floors of jewelrys. Like one of the reviews says, they only have a small section for guys. I brought my then-boyfriend a cuff-links he really liked. read more

I LOVE this place. LOVE it. LOOOOOOVE it. its totally worth it. earrings? $2.50 necklaces? $5.00 sets? $7.00 Why shop anywhere else? its perfect! read more

2 floors. Walls covered in earrings, necklaces, bracelets, pins, rings, just about any type of accessory you can think of. Choose from many types of simple, gaudy, elegant, and not so fancy finds. The main reason why I shop here is because of the earrings, though I always give into temptation and buy something else. At prices that average around $5.00, who wouldn't? Most of the earrings used to cost $2.00 and I was bummed to come to the store at the end of the summer to see that the price raised to $2.50. Can't complain cause it's a steal compared that to prices at any major women's clothing store. I wonder how much they actually cost back where they were imported from? If you're a shopaholic then spend away. Their stock changes every couple of months so if you've retired your past buys you can always come in and find new styles. read more

AHHHHHH! Stop ME!!! I can't believe how much I love this place. It was the best $150 spent in a long time. Earrings for $3??? yes you can find them here. Mirrors, rings, hair pins, necklaces, scarves, sunglasses, reading glasses, belts...oh my! Be ready to shop for a while, i was totally exhausted after my visit, but then I came back the next day for another shopping spree. they have a 10% discount if you buy $100 or more, very easy to do. read more

I loved this place! I walked through the door and the heavenly choir started to sing. This should be the accessories mecca for any lady who loves a variety of costume jewelry. There were earrings and bracelets for $2.50 and most things average about $5. TIPS: - cover pieces with clear coat of nail polish - purchase with a friend to get the bulk discount The discount policy is as follows: $100 10% discount $250 15% discount $500 25% discount $1000 30% discount P.S. The employees will CLOSELY follow you around as if you are planning to rob the joint and they do not provide ANY customer assistance. You are also not allowed to try any of the stuff on. read more

Broke Bride & Groom want Groomsmens gifts that look like they came from Tiffany's with a budget that looks like it came out of a couch cushion. Whats a wedding planner to do??? HEAD TO EARRINGS PLAZA!!! Ok so I shouldn't let out my trade secrets but we're all yelpers here. . I got the keychains and took them to an engraver and shhhh he thought that they were Dior! LOL. My cousin was having a baby -- I needed 50 giftbags for the favors! Even the 99cent store was cutting it dealwise for needing so many of one item! So in comes Earring Plaza. Where I got all 50 giftbags for $35.00 -- yes you read that right! This place is just a smorgasboard of budget amazingness. read more

I was shopping for a white metal long fringe necklace for a maxi dress. They have a big selection but I couldn't find what I wanted. They have 2 floors and they're prices are reasonable. The quality of the costume jewelry is not high end but it's nice looking and cheap enough to toss it after you use it a few times. It's a good place to buy matching sets for bridesmaids, etc. The people that work there are not very helpful. The 2 young girls that work there just stand around. You can't try anything on and I don't know their return policy but I'm sure you can't get your money back. I would have like to have had someone to discuss some of the pieces. I needed an adult's opinion which I wouldn't have gotten there. I ended up ordering some pieces from Amazon. read more

I've been going here for 15 years (at least), and it's THE place to go for trendy and stylish earrings that will last you a couple of years ... and you won't cry of you lose or break one. Seriously, you can walk out with 10 pairs of decent looking earrings for under $40, and they don't look juvenile like you got them at Claire's at the mall or something. Uber cheap, and the more you spend, the bigger the discount. I go two or three times a year, and it's fun to pick out anything and everything you want and know you won't break the bank doing it. read more

self-exiled from my hometown (NYC) I ordered from them last week. Everything I received was fabulous and even exceeded my expectations. Shipping was warp speed, ultra professional and friendly service, the jewelry came wrapped in hot pink tissue, yet! I love them and am so looking forward to visiting as soon as possible- because everything they have is obviously not on the website. Luv you! Thank you EP!!!!! #justthrowitinthebag read more

I'd like to think I know a little something about jewelry, so no matter how affordable something is I just can't buy it if it actually looks cheap... and everything here looks cheap. BUT upstairs they have a small collection of amazing sunglasses where I was FINALLY able to find a pair of super cute ones that fit on my flat faced big Asian head! It's been years since I've been able to find sunglasses with perfectly flat lenses and wide enough to fit my broad face! I also got some really cute reading glasses that are perfect for setting stone in jewelry (I said I know a little something...) read more

I have been a client of Earring plaza since 1994, when the earrings were $1.25. The staff was all ways courtesy and humble and kind and a smile on their faces and that was all ways very comforting and nice to have around you and always helpful and wanting to be helpful in anyway they could and can be to each and every customer who came to visit and shop in their store it was nice and pleasant to visit. They made it that way.. I love them for me I consider them my other shopping family. The store is huge and I love it!!!!. Everything is neat tidy and in it's place and arrangements are perfect.. it's easy to shop and navigate inside when you enter. They had everything, they still do but some things they can not get anymore like before. The experience going their is wonderful and I appreciate all of them and it makes me very happy.. I go every year for my Birthday to purchase a crown, jewelry sets, or create my own jewelry sets, rhinestone fancy beautiful evening party bags, brooches, beautiful matching scarves, rhinestone jewelry hair clips, matching beautiful designer rhinestone cocktail rings.. awesome!!!!.. Yeah, I love, love, earring plaza. I brought my nieces when they were little, they are grown now.. I still own pieces from back then 1994... In good condition, and I still wear them to this day... I was just their for my last Birthday in January 27th , 2020 I purchased my beautiful rhinestone handbags, my brooch, and rhinestone hair Combs.. lovely!!!. I have not been back since before Valentine's day for some red charm bracelets they did not have this year, surprised they usually do.... But now if they are open I will try to make a visit soon. I miss my other shopping family, I need to see and feel happy more now.. with them.. Thank you for allowing me to share this with you all.. I hope you will take my word and please visit and shop and feel the love when you walk in.. the atmosphere is pleasant and nice. . Be and stay safe and shop happily. read more

This place is literally CHEAP JEWELRY HEAVEN. It is right in the heart of a district of fashion jewelry dealers, a lot of wholesalers. This place will happily allow you to purchase an item or two if you are just a shopper, and not a retailer. I found that the selection was fantastic, and the prices were even better. Mind you this is cheap jewelry, so if your not looking for that, I don't recommend this place. read more
