I love the facade of the shop, and they have some nice (real) pieces--looked like they had both new…read moreand vintage stuff, and they had real sterling charms--almost got the little sardine can one, but opted for a fun enamel and sterling peacock ring instead. The two people working there were not very friendly. I get you have plenty of tourists "bothering" you to look at what you have in this shop, but that's part of having a shop: People. In your space. Just looking. Until they are just buying. They officially take AmEx, but prefer you not use it. The lady was sorta rude with another customer, and the guy that helped me got all offended because I called this wacky cocktail ring "costume" jewelry, since it is sterling. Yeah, but it still isn't fine jewelry with gem stones, easy killer. You certainly may find a unique Portuguese piece here, but be prepared to deal with attitude.

A great little gem amongst other gems. Sorry for the pun. I looked at quite a few stores before…read moredetermining i'd buy from here. As someone who's looking for handmade cufflinks, i found Carmo to be one of the few that actually did sell them, did have a decent selection, and while the prices were 'non negotiable', they do fill out tax returns for tourists, which no other joalharia offered. But more so, they had things i liked compared to the rest.

Although the items are somewhat pricy (think about 25 euros for a bracelet) the quality of the items makes it worth the price tag. The store is lovely, and the staff is friendly and helpful. If you find a piece of jewelry you like but it is the wrong size, they are able to get other sizes to ensure the perfect fit. Considering Portugal is known for cork, this place is a must see for tourists wanting unique yet cultural gifts.

I also got a l nice ring set that was black and gold interlocking rings (that could also be word as ear cuffs??? Win!). The only draw back is the black polish came off the ring very quickly and so it doesn't have that same look. I still like it, but wish it hadn't been covered in the black since it wore off so fast. Definitely want more pieces from here.

So this is supposed to be a famous Lisbon vintage/thrift store; however, I am sad to say that I was…read moreunderwhelmed. I realize that every city has its own thrift/vintage culture and it's hard to find a market where you find that perfect combination of affordable + chic + a bargain. The difference between affordable and a bargain meaning that you're selling clothes at an affordable price (let's say a woman's sweater for 10 euros) and also at a comparative bargain considering the original value (so, not an H&M sweater for 10 euros). The selection here was more "vintage" (old) than thrift (inexpensive), and generally overpriced by my standards. The jewelry was housed across the street, and that selection was small. Encountered a much better vintage option further north in the city.
