They get the work done in a couple of days and it's guaranteed that they will do a good job. I mean after all they were Empress Elizabeth's jewelers nonetheless!! If you don't live in Vienna ( like me) you can send whatever you need fixed or repaired via DHL or FedEx and they will return it to you the same way. The shop is located in the city's historical center and still has it's old time charm, they exhibit their most famous pieces on the windows to which eager tourists always come around to snap pictures and admire the famous diamond stars Sisi used to wear on her hair. The staff is very courteous and professional, I completely recommend this place!

On Sunday, July 1st I went to the flea market in Hietzing…read more This flea market is situated at the beginning of one of the main Viennese shopping streets and one of the best areas of Vienna, directly after one of the entrances of the Castle of Schoenbrunn. It can be easily reached by U4 Stop Hietzing and the tram no. 60. The pieces offered are really authentic antique (e.g. Biedermeier, Art Nouveau, etc.) With the jewelry you have to be careful, there are only a few pieces that are authentic antique. But there is lots to see and the amount is really great compared to other markets. One thing that is really stupid is that you cannot really see the prices, because they are either not labeled or at the bottom of the pieces. The prices seem to be a little high. Thus when you lift the thing just to know how much it costs or you ask most of the sellers want to force you to buy the stuff!!! - and that is what I hate when I go to a market... The idea is great, and summarizing I must say this is a much better market than the one in the city of Baden, 24km down to the south of Vienna. The location there is a square place, but there are too many stands so you cannot really see and pick out and the prices are far too high. Besides the pieces are most of the time not authentic. This is why I prefer this market. Maybe the location you go to next time???

Nice shop, beautyful collection, friendly assistance and a very happy gilrfriend!read more

Did you know that Swarovski was founded in Austria in 1895 and is now run by the fifth generation…read moreof family members? I didn't. But my friend and I wandered into this Swarovski store when we were visiting Vienna a few weeks ago, because I had learned something else about the store: it has a Moët & Chandon Bar on the top floor. So we wandered into Swarovski for a couple of glasses of champagne during a day of exploring. But once I saw how beautiful the store was, I wanted to do a little souvenir shopping, too. After all - Swarovski has a long history in Austria, making it a great spot for souvenir shopping I picked up a beautiful necklace and earring set, and my friend picked a Christmas ornament. But they have everything from small trinkets (some small pieces of jewelry were well less than $100) to enormous sculpture pieces costing thousands of dollars. The customer service was among the best during our time in Vienna - very friendly and helpful. So stop by, purchase a glass of champagne, walk around their stunning store, and see if something shiny speaks to you!

Amazing inventory! Exceptional service. So much to choose from - at very reasonable prices.read more

I purchased an 18k white gold snake chain on a cruise ship this spring. Useful for the pendant I…read morewanted to wear, but nothing elaborate on its own. I was given a "50% discount" off the 4-figure price. The clasp broke away from the chain a few months later after very light wearing. I just received the return label to send it in for repair. The company insured it for 25% of what I paid. I know cruise ship jewelry is overpriced, but "ouch!" Plus, I've never had a chain break so easily and expected more from something in this price category. I'll eventually receive a repaired chain, but will never feel full confidence in the quality.

My wife or the W had heard about Frey Wille Jewelry from an American who had visited Vienna. We…read morefinally found the Frey Wille store and later discovered it was right near the Hotel Sachere. The W was in Frey Wille about an hour and made a number of purchases. In general for Americans traveling in Europe, the prices are only good on certain local goods. The Frey Wille Store is one of them since they are Austria based. For any purchases, you can get the tax or VAT back at the European Union Airport that you leave, so save all your receipts.
