It made us feel singled out and unwelcome, and honestly came across as discriminatory and racist behavior. Instead of being able to shop comfortably, we felt pressured and judged the whole time. Customer service should make people feel welcome, not targeted. We ended up leaving and found a much better gift shop across the street with amazing customer service, friendly staff, and better items/prices as well. We were treated with kindness there, which made the difference very obvious. We definitely would not recommend this shop to anyone. Businesses that treat customers this way do not deserve support.

Mariposa is a bit out of the way for us, but my geology instructor told us about this and we really wanted to attend. The drive up is pleasant, with good scenery, and the fairgrounds are very easy to find. The best part was, the entire show was free! I don't think I've ever been to any other shows like this that were free. I had planned to buy things so not having an entrance fee made it even better. There were two indoor buildings completely full of vendors. They were selling jewelry, rare mineral specimens, fossils and even gold prospecting equipment. Everyone we talked to was really friendly (that seems to be how rock people are!) and no one was overly pushy. Outdoors were food vendors and my personal favorite, geode cutting! There were bins of geodes of all different sizes and you could choose which one you wanted and they would cut it open for $2. The prices were very reasonable. I ended up choosing a nice one, and I felt like a 5-year-old as I opened it for the first time. As the man who cut it said, I was the first person to see inside of it for millions of years! We plan to be back next year. I highly recommend it! Also the Mariposa State Mining & Mineral Museum was also free this weekend.

I was heart broken that I had lost my ring and was unsure of whether I wanted to replace it, duplicate it, design something new or just live without one. They listened to my entire wish list, worked within my budget and helped me to tweak the design until we came up with the final ring that fits my lifestyle today. It turned out to be the perfect ring and is absolutely beautiful. I could not be happier. It was also a really fun experience working with Rod and Natalie. I would not hesitate to use Sonora Jewelry for any of my future jewelry needs. I even had them resize my father's childhood signet ring.
