So happy to find this place My pearl bracelet broken. Silver sky fixed it-- knotted in between pearls as it should- for a fair price and in a day. I will go back. read more

Since my first review was wrongly removed - THIS IS FROM DETAILS OF MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE HERE. Take your business elsewhere. The owner loudly & proudly enjoys spewing her ignorance & hate towards Palestinian people in front of customers & her poor employees who are very clearly uncomfortable. Extremely unprofessional. read more

Absolutely the best location in San Fernando Valley to find all your beading supplies. Fabulous selection of gemstones, finding, chains and of course beads! Customer service is excellent too! Highly recommend this location for wonderful finds and prices. read more

Such an incredible store! I came in looking for some unique crystals for friends who are new to crystals and also a seasoned collector. I wanted something different and I found it. With owner Harish's help he showed me so many gorgeous pieces around the shop. read more

I have reviewed them before and then updated my review but I'm leaving a whole new one because my experience with them has been so bad. When I first went in, they were very nice and repaired one of my vintage strands of beads for me. It was great so I brought them two more. Unfortunately the next two strands they did much too tightly, so they didn't lay nicely when I wore them. I asked them to repair them which they did. In the meantime, one of the knots on the first strand unknotted, so I brought it back. At that point, the woman who had done the work was away for extended period and someone else did the work. It was not at the same standard. I asked if it could be repaired again and I was told that I would have to wait for over a month and when I asked why I was not given a clear answer; I was brushed off. The woman was really rude. But they had my beads and they were not repaired so I had to wait. I finally got a call to come and get them. I went in and while they are not as bad as they were, they are not at the level of skill with which they had originally been repaired. I said you can see the thread sticking out and the woman, not the woman who does the repairs, but the rude woman, got really aggressive with me, and the owner sat there and said don't speak to her and she kept on and she made gestures for me to just leave the store and I was like this is really bad. I am going to go write about this on Yelp because I've spent a lot of money here at this point and you've done subpar work and you're being really rude. She then spoke to the owner about me in another language, very overtly being nasty, and said that her work is as important as the money I spent and I said yeah, but your work is subpar. So now I have to go spend more money somewhere else having the same thing repaired that I've already had repaired twice. Do not give these people your business, do not give them your money. Do not bring them your jewelry for repair. A terrible terrible experience. So disappointing. I gave them every chance to make it right and instead they were rude to me.y read more

The store seemed nice at first, but the items were overpriced. We were sold "silver" cones at silver prices. The "silver" cones have turned out to be plated. The women that ran this place kept telling us what a good deal it was. Clearly not. Buyer beware. read more

Such an incredible store! I came in looking for some unique crystals for friends who are new to crystals and also a seasoned collector. I wanted something different and I found it. With owner Harish's help he showed me so many gorgeous pieces around the shop. There are signs everywhere with the name of the crystal and it's modality. I absolutely love this. As a collector myself, this is something I find fascinating and I believe they can be very healing and instrumental in life. I couldn't help but peruse everything. They have gorgeous beads of every shape, color, style, you name it, to make jewelry. They have lovely pieces that are already made. Great prices on earrings with some great finds in the 3 for $35 rack. I think for every gift I got, I bought a little something for myself as well. I am already looking forward to visiting again and bringing a friend who has been seriously overpaying for his crystals and stones at a fancy store in the west valley. The prices here are excellent and Harish is quite the deal maker. The more I bought, the better the pricing he gave me. Metered parking with free parking in a residential neighborhood just off Ventura. Come and support a small business that has been here for over 30 years the next time you're looking for an interesting gift or a nice bracelet for yourself. read more

i'm sad. i was so happy, but the job they did was sub-par. first they were really nice about redoing it, but then the woman who does that went out of town. i thought i would have to wait for her return for a fix, but then another woman in the store did them for me, but not nearly as well. she got defensive and said i'd have to wait a month for the first woman to return. i asked why and she wouldn't answer. nothing makes me more frustrated than being a good repeat customer and getting stone walled when asking why something is being handled a certian way. finally her boss stepped in and explained that as i wasn't happy with the work the second woman had done, she wasn't comfortable redoing it, and i needed to wait. that was all she had to say. instead she just stood there, stony saying, you have to wait, and when i said, but why? she'd say, you have to wait. it was infuriating. so maybe go to the bougie place that charges more. silver sky will eventually get it done cheaper, but at what cost? read more

This place has more authentic gemstones than you can imagine. It smells amazing when you walk in. The customer service is beyond compare. I don't know how they find anything at all the things that they have but they are very well organized and they had everything I wanted and some stuff that I didn't know I needed. It is family owned and a local business. You must go here read more

Love Silver Sky! They have a beautiful selection of beads, semi precious included! I broke a beautiful turquoise beaded necklace and they restrung it for me quickly an inexpensively. The owner did it herself. I think her name is Madu. She snd her husband are so lovely! read more

Madhu and Harish are the most lovely people! I have been coming to them for crystals, beads and jewelry for over 10yrs - they are incredibly kind and have wonderful prices and selection. Madhu has made beautiful bracelets and necklaces for me, and I love to have custom ones made as gifts that my family and friends love and enjoy for years. Their new location is wonderful - bright and airy w/ beautiful selection. I believe in supporting local businesses especially when the owners are so fantastic! I get as good of deals here as I have online- but here I get a warm welcome, some laughs and a hug - beats online any day ;). read more

I had a necklace that needed repair and went in to see if they could fix it. All that was needed was a simple loop and the know-how/tools to connect two pieces. The gentleman who helped me was very nice and did not even charge me. I am taking off one star because I had to ask him to wear his mask. The sign at the door clearly states that masks are required for customers. There were two other customers in the store. One wearing a mask, one not wearing a mask. I was happy that the owner put on his mask which made me more comfortable. read more

I Silver Sky, and especially the new location. It's gorgeous, easy to find, with tons of street parking. Madhu and Harish have always been so lovely to me over the many many years I've been a customer. Their prices and selection are THE BEST!! I've purchased many gorgeous stones and crystals over the years to make my own jewelry, and . now enjoy many gorgeous custom pieces. They've always gone above and beyond for everyone who comes in. I highly recommend them to everyone, and I guarantee that you'll fall in love with them too. They're a neighborhood favorite, and they deserve to be spoiled as much as they spoil us. read more

Wow-what a horrible experience... First of all, it was 100' in the store with no air conditioning at all. Then the store owner followed me and my fiancés every move around the store. Like a creep! It was so uncomfortable!! My fiancé ended up stepping out of the store from this behavior.. Then the owner continued to follow me around the store. So I decided not to buy anything from this weirdo. It sucks because this store has been on my list for a while since I wanted to make a citrine necklace for the new year. Very disappointed and offended by how we were treated. And going to warn my crystal collector friends about this place!! read more

They are very careful with covid. Giving you gloves as you enter the store. The pricing is always BEEY competitive and they are friendly. The store has so many options. I've bought four crystals there, two bracelets and a salt lamp. read more

Silver Sky has very good prices and they have high quality items. Have you ever heard of the term "Haggling" it means to barter. The family owned business is ran by a sister and brother team. It's part of their culture to haggle, so go in there light hearted and be ready to be "sold to" ;) once your in there, place a dollar Bill I'll on the sature of Ganesh... and the owners will adore you;) Don't take anything personal- after all, it's good karma to let things run down your back. read more

I had them repair and make a few custom beaded necklaces for me and they did a careful, thoughtful and beautiful job. Very much curated collection of exquisite beads. I didn't see anything in the store that I thought was low quality. Got a ton of compliments on my necklaces made by this bead shop. Good customer service and reliable. Finished the necklaces in the time frame as promised. read more

Always a pleasure shopping here. Harish and Madu are such beautiful people. I have been a customer here for 8 years now. I will always recommend shopping at Silver Sky. They have a big selection of beautiful beads and crystals. read more

Great store and selection of variety of beads & stones. Owner was friendly & helpful. Found just what I needed.

I was so shocked, I had to write a (an unfavorable) review. I brought my necklace in. The woman told me it would be $10 to fix. Then she called and said it would $15 that she had to REPLACE everything (except the stone of course). I said okay. When I picked it up, the repair charges went up another $5. We are not talking about a lot of money, of course. But it is the principle. The second time I wore the necklace, it slid off from around my neck. I looked at it closely with a friend and we decided I should take it back. I took it to back and the woman told me she could repair it. I asked if she could do it right then and she said no. Then I said will the repair be free? She said, "No!" She didn't even look at it! In looking at it closely it seems one of the pieces she replaced was broken. Poor quality. So even though I liked the store, they were nice and had a lot of cool stuff, I won't be going back there if they can't stand behind their work. A friend of mine bought a couple of chakra bracelets at the same time. When I told her about my experience, she told me her bracelets broke. I told her not to bother taking them back! read more

Silver Sky International - Calming and clear energy. Compliments of Silver Sky International. - Hobby Shops Near Me - Sherman Oaks, California

This is my favorite shop for crystals and gems. It's like finding a treasure chest to sort through jewels. You can customize and create your own jewelry or purchase items already made, all at a fair price, and not over market value like some other metaphysical stores in the area. I enjoy talking with the owners who have been very kind & generous with me. Occasionally I bought several items together and we were able to bargain a deal on the last ;) The way I have been treated makes me want to come back for more gems. I like supporting local, family owned businesses, it's a win-win. Posting a photo of my latest favorite jewelry I got from here :D read more

oOoo...shiny! Great prices for the quality of semiprecious stones they carry. Mostly A, AA and very few AAA stones. They also carry pearls and crystals. Very close to my house and the brother/sister owners are VERY friendly. The more $$$ you spend, the better discount they are more likely to give you. Thanks & ENJOY! read more

Amazing staff and service!!!!! Have beautiful crystals and rings. Will definitely come back again!

Been coming here for YEARS. They have the most unique pendants, crystals, beads, pearls. My mom comes here to buy materials to make her own jewelry and I love coming hear to buy pendants. I like that they have cards that tell you the properties of the stones and crystals you buy! read more

Silver Sky International - Here's a Lapis Lazuli pendant that I got :-) - Hobby Shops Near Me - Sherman Oaks, California

I've known of Silver Sky since 1996 when I first started getting into making jewelry. Their store was off of Laurel Cyn. in North Hollywood. Hadesh & his sister Madue are the owners and have always been great with customer service. I've been making jewelry on and off throughout the years and every time I return, they are so gracious to help me with whatever I'm looking for whether it's gold filled or sterling silver wire or Simi precious stones. They sell beautiful strands of jelly opal which my daughter gifted me with as a birthday gift. I highly recommend stopping by if you are into making jewelry as a hobby or business. I echo what previous reviewers have said about their prices and discounts if you spend more. They are out to make their customers happy. Silver Sky is my #1 place to go for all my jewelry making needs. This is a follow up as of May 11th 2018 I'm so disappointed to have to write this review but it's to warn others that do business with Hadesh. I now live out in Santa Clarita and I wanted to continue giving my business to this brother and sister team instead of ordering from another vendor off the internet. I had my husband (since he worked in the area) pick up a small order from them worth $500. They didn't have the chain I wanted so Hadesh gladly said he would order it and send it to me. I had orders to fill and reluctantly agreed. When I finally received it I went about adding it to my inventory and noticed (since I work with chain a lot) that my order was very skimpy and not the correct color of the 14k gold filled chain. I decided to measure all the different chains I ordered and five out of seven were less by five feet and up to twelve. I was horrified that Hadesh would betray be and take advantage. It was well over a hundred dollars worth of chain he tried to rip me off from. The worst is when I went back to show him what he sent me, he didn't even deny it or apologize. Only his sister pleaded with me to still do business with them. I obviously can't trust their business practices so I graciously bowed out. If you decide to give them your business, you might be safe just buying strung stones but I would highly discourage anyone from purchasing materials that have to be counted or cut. If you do and have the time (which I don't have) count and measure everything before leaving their shop. read more

LOVE this place! Had no idea this jewelry supply store was here and I've been going to psychic eye for years! Went in to shop the other day and was quickly greeted and given gloves. I had a few questions about some chains and the lady that was helping me, i wish i got her name, was the loveliest ever! They have such good quality items, so nice, and great prices! I've had some not so great experiences with some bead shops around town but this one is A++++ i will definitely return here for all my jewelry supply needs!!! read more

By far the best Jewelry store that I have ever been to. I've had such an easy time when looking for a leather string to put my jewelry piece around. For such a fair price as well. As an added bonus, they even tied my necklace around my neck. Incredible customer service and high quality items merchandise. Definitely recommend everyone to come here for their jewelry needs. read more

I highly recommend them, family owned and operated, and now this is my spot for all Holiday gift making. Heads up family and friends, Its going to be a good Holiday for you Thank You Madhu and Grace for taking such good care of me and the fantastic deals, You're the BEST!! read more

Wow! I walked in yesterday and thought I had gone to gem stone heaven. If I'm going to make a necklace I want the good stuff and previously I've had to have it shipped from India or China and wait while it makes it through customs. This place had it all -- I bought emerald, ruby, garnet, moonstone, labradorite and pearl beads! All at a great discount price offered by the owner (everything was 50% off yesterday!) Way better pricing than anything you'd find on Etsy and also better pricing than other shops like Bead Source. If you live on the other side of the hill, well worth the drive. If I was rich I would have bought some of their London blue topaz beads or opals. They even had rough diamond beads. Simply gorgeous, AAA quality. Silver Sky is by far the best bead store in Los Angeles. You won't believe how much product they have. If they don't have it, the owner Harish said she would order it. This place really has everything and all I can say is seeing is believing. And the customer care is fantastic. I am going to take a class too, and looking forward to it. read more

I hate going downtown for jewelry supplies. Everything (save for a few stores) is cheapo and plastic, parking is terrible, and customer service is pretty sad. Silver Sky is my oasis, and luckily, not too much of a drive for LA area folks. Silver Sky has metal findings (including gold-filled or silver, if that's your thing), a wide WIDE range of semiprecious stones and swarovski crystals, plus supplies like pliers and wire. They have some chain, too, but not a huge supply so don't bank on coming here just for that. Above all, the owners are very helpful - I've sent them rummaging through bags of head pins for JUST the right sized pins, many a time - and they're always willing to knock a few $ off if you buy several items. Also, whenever I leave they say "Hope to see you again soon!", which isn't THAT big of a deal, but hard to find these days nonetheless. It shows they really understand the importance of customer service (I know, rocket science, right? Wish more companies understood these simple mechanics). I'm more than happy to give repeat business to an awesome company like Silver Sky! read more
