    Earrings in store
    Dina E.

    My first time in Chicago and as I'm exploring, I stumbled upon this place and figured it was worth checking out especially for gifts for my sister. They had a lot of cool pieces and there were two saleswomen that were very helpful. One offered me a tray so I could put all the pieces that I liked and shop freely. I purchased a necklace and 2 of the same earrings. The other sales girl was super nice enough to check stock in the back and kindly found more. The pieces are really beautiful. I did knock down a star bc both earrings were supposed to be cheaper than what I was going to be charged. I did mention it to the sales girl and she told me that the price on the screen was correct until the saleswoman next to her corrected her. I understand it wasn't updated in the computer. However, I'd say it's important to be knowledgeable of the prices of the pieces in store. Even if the price I said was incorrect, protocol would be To ensure nonetheless the price on the screen is correct instead of dismissing it. If I didn't say anything, I would've been overcharged. The second reason is pricing. Although earrings are reasonably priced, I paid about $50 on a necklace. It's cute but definitely overpriced bc the quality of the piece will most likely tarnish in a short period of time. I feel like the only way to justify the price would be to use higher quality materials that will not tarnish. Other than that, I highly recommend you visit just to check it out even if you don't walk out with anything. I wanted to support the business, but with places like shein and other fast fashion places, you could get the same thing for so much cheaper.

    I can't believe this was my first time here... such cool designs and reasonable prices for a store on mag mile. I got a couple of gifts and would love to come back soon... the girl in the counter was very pleasant I think her name was Andrea ... good customer service. Check out this gem of a place !!

    Purchased a wrap from StichFix and most likely because it is one of my favorite pieces and wear often one of the threads wore and stone was dangling. Reached out to Nakamol directly, they had me send the wrap back to see if they could repair. I received a new replacement within 2 weeks. Appreciate their stellar customer service and the continued enjoyment of one of my favorite pieces.

    So much jewelry!

    This jam-packed bling store is a lot of fun to browse through, but it would be more fun if it weren't so crammed full of stuff and if it had less pushy salespeople. We were lured in by the shop window full of sparkly, colorful necklaces, and that is just the beginning. The smallish shop is PACKED with shelves, wall displays, racks, and cabinets that are all full to bursting with jewelry. It's overwhelming at first, especially when you realize that the large tables in the center are full of drawers that also contain more pieces. Much of the jewelry is handmade, and you can see the quality in the semiprecious stones and pearls used as well as the settings and elaborate designs. There are some cheaper items that look like mass-produced junk jewelry in the back, but you can easily see the difference when you compare the items (and their prices). The prices seemed fair given that it's handmade, but more than I would pay on a whim. I saw a super-long pearl necklace that I really liked, but wasn't going to drop $80 on it. A lot of it was frankly too big and gaudy for my taste, but if you like BIG statement necklaces and one-of-a-kind pieces, their stuff is quite impressive! it seems like they do a lot of business with formal and bridal jewelry. They do have simpler pieces and basics, though, even small post earrings. What really took away from our enjoyment was the very pushy saleswoman who greeted us when we walked in and then followed us around the store with a very aggressive manner. If we looked at something, she would swoop in, tell us at length about why it was such a great deal, and attempt to put it behind the counter for us! This made me not want to pick up anything for fear of the hard sell. Eventually we waited until she was talking to another shopper and fled, but for a while we thought we weren't going to get out of there without being forced to buy something! I'd recommend this place if you're looking for formal/bridal jewelry and are ready to spend $100-200+ on a necklace, but casual browsers may be put off by the price tags and the pushy sales tactics.

    I recently visited this store with my friends, and we were treated absolutely unfairly. After…read morebrowsing and peacefully walking out (without buying anything), one of the workers came running after us and accused us of stealing. We were shocked, confused, and honestly embarrassed, in public for something we didn't do. They didn't ask politely or explain anything. They just assumed. No proof. No apology. nothing We cooperated and showed them we had nothing, and instead of admitting their mistake, they gave us attitude and let us go like we were guilty. This kind of treatment is completely unacceptable, especially when you treat young customers like criminals just because we're teens or don't "look" like your usual shoppers. We came to shop, not to be profiled or harassed. I will not be returning, and I wouldn't recommend this store to anyone who values basic respect.

    She is on the phone. "Hi, may I take a quick picture?"…read moreI asked politely. The lady responded, "no photo, goodbye." While this short poem pretty much sums up my 30-second visit at Oriental Boutique, it is also an acrostic that describes the lady's attitude and the service. I was looking for a traditional Chinese dress (i.e. Qi Pao) for my girlfriend, whom I am going to marry. However, most of the designs cater to kids or tourists (that might explain why most positive reviews were written by non-Asian customers... just saying!) and very few of them are for adults. As someone who grew up in an ethnically Chinese background, I had seen and worn more culturally authentic and better designed traditional gowns and dresses. Many designs displayed in the store seem "oriental" in a western sense or as in what westerners think "oriental" should look like, but this is just my subjective observation and honest opinion. The lady was on the phone all the time, and when I asked her question, she literally answered, "no photo, goodbye." Okay. BYE. NEVER AGAIN! Wish I could have given a zero or a negative number.
