My mother was clearing out her dresser and gave me my grandmother's wedding and engagement rings,…read moreas well as a beautiful old necklace. The rings were a size 3.5, which is tiny! My partner and I decided to set a date for our wedding shortly after we got these rings, so one of the first orders of business was to have the rings resized for my (I think fairly normal sized) fingers. I got a quote from a downtown store close to my office, and for the diamond engagement ring to be resized as well as the prongs re-done (the ring is platinum), it was gong to cost about $600 (plus tax). I asked my partner to get a quote from Trinity, so we could compare. For the exact same work (resizing the ring in platinum and re doing the prongs), the cost from Trinity was $180 (plus tax). What a price difference! Resizing the wedding band was only $80. My partner left them at Trinity immediately because it was such a good price. On top of that, the rings were done within a week, and the workmanship is excellent. My heirloom rings look beautiful. I'd highly recommend this place.

Narrative: My twelve-year-old Timex chronograph's adjustment functions and second hand had been askew for the past year. I walked into the store and was greeted with a warm smile by Victoria, who preceded to listen to my watch woes. She directed me to Scott, who took my watch, and after scrutinizing it for a few seconds, pulled the stem, pushed one of the buttons repeatedly, which manually reset the resting position of the second-hand. Should you need help in the arcane realm of timepiece mechanics, Scott's colleagues consider him "the man to see about watches". Thanks again to Victoria, Scott, et al.

I can't wait to get to work on our wedding bands! If you're debating between a custom piece or something from a big-box jewelry store please go and at least talk to Glen or Blaine first! They're more knowledgeable and dedicated to quality than any jeweller we met in the big stores in the mall. There is definitely a difference between dealing with a sales person and a true craftsman.

Nestled below a few steps off Spring Garden Road, this jewelry shop requires an extra glance to notice its there. The steps are deep, so be warned--I can see them being tricky for some. Visitors need to press the buzz to get inside, and its immediately obvious that this place isn't for tooting around. Teeny-tiny, but elegantly stated. The exposed brick wall and open workshop give Fawcett's its own hands-on personality. The goldsmith, Blaine, welcomed me kindly and was very helpful in giving me the shop scoop. While the show room displays mainly engagement rings, formal bands and the like, the business is built on custom designed jewelry. Everything is made right here in the shop, behind a wall divider, so as the goldsmith works, you can roam the shop and see him go. Its a different experience, and I liked it. The jewels are too rich for my blood, but maybe some day. Blaine mentioned that they were branching out with some newer and lower price range product, so don't let price stop you from going in for a peek. Overall, the work is excellent and the friendly, personably service seems A +. Open for over 18 years, its no wonder Fawcett's is still kicking.

They have a wonderful selection, there is literally something for everyone here.

There is also a huge price range which is nice, many affordable pieces in the $50-100 range and also some precious stones and metals in the $500 + range. If you love jewellery or are looking for a special gift for someone, you won't leave here empty handed!

I myself have been in this location many of times just to look at all the beautiful pieces that are for sale or to see what was being produced. What I mean is that not only do the sell jewelry as well as Estate Jewelry they will customer design and create some of the most unique and exquisite designs that you will see. I love to go in and look in the counters and glass cases to get some ideas. As well they are able to repair your jewelry as well. Now pieces like you will find here are going to cost you some money but like my mother always said Quality over quantity and that is what you are going to get here Quality.

Classic wedding bands, diamond rings, necklaces, earrings and Rolex watches adorn the store's inner glass counters. Its a small but mighty shop, as it seems to maintain traditional essence of "serious jewelry", yet also offer up some playful cuts and stones. (Think pink diamond!) While I'm not quite there, I can appreciate Touch of Gold's eye for elegance and its mixing of traditional and unusual designs.

Or as my husband would say "it a place for hippies." They had lots of cool sterling silver jewelry from Thailand. The prices were quite reasonable too. They had lots of earrings and bracelets in the $10-$25 range. I really didn't look at much else in the store, but they had beads, wooden knick knacks, pillows, and clothing that looked like they were from Nepal, Indonesia and Thailand, among other things. I loved these kinds of stores in my middle school and high school years, but it's not quite my aesthetics anymore, with the exception of the jewelery, because I still love sterling silver, it's the most suitable metal for my colouring. I had a great time browsing their large jewelery section. I almost bought the cutest bracelet, but it was a tad too big for me :( Staff were very nice. I always stop by when I'm in Halifax to poke around a bit, and be reminded of my style as a teenager, lol.
