Highly recommended for jewelry repair, advice, and purchasing!

I took a vintage ring my husband bought me for our 30th anniversary in to have a pearl replaced,…read moreand they did a superb job. They confirmed it wasn't the same one that fell out previously, as well as making sure all the others were seated firmly. I should mention the ring was not purchased here, although they do have beautiful and unique jewelry there for sale. The price was far below what I anticipated, and it was ready when they anticipated it would be. I couldn't be happier with the results. I will admit, I should have posted this review several months ago, I just forgot I hadn't already done it.

Several years ago I had an idea for a wedding band design that I wanted but, unable to find exactly…read morewhat I was looking for, settled on a different design. Recently I decided to get what I wanted & started shopping for options. It was clear there was nothing "over the counter" I could get so I started shopping custom jewelers. Everyone i talked to either wanted to suggest designs other than what I wanted or charge me exorbitant fees to create the ring I wanted...Then I found Formia right in my back yard. Mia actually listened to what I wanted, sketching concepts so I could visualize what she was thinking. In the end, she offered to simply modify my current band to the design I wanted years ago! No price gouging, simply tweaking the design I settled on to give me the design I REALLY wanted...And at a MUCH more affordable price. Many thanks to Formia for listening, not just directing, and for offering options not just profiteering. I now have the ring I always wanted and she has a customer that is not only bragging about her but returning when my wife & I need her skills again!

I have to admit that my wedding ring is my favorite; I had tears in my eyes when I saw that it looked like it did 50 years ago when my husband first put it on my finger! Thank you! Thank you! You are truly gifted. Hope 2026 is your best year yet. I am sure I can find some more work for you - so, we will be seeing you!

Upon further reflection, it would not be a stretch to posit it might could be the best frame shop in North America. And, if you are willing to come that far with me, then it stands to reason that it must be the best frame shop on the planet because, well, It's common knowledge and a well accepted fact that everything is better in the USA - even beer nowadays... So welcome to the best little frame shop in the Milky Way galaxy. And now that's out of the way, let's talk about the family side of the business. John, the original owner was a peach of a man. Always looking up from whatever he was doing to offer his full attention and guidance. He was so good that, after a few projects, I'd just call him and tell him what I needed and what room it was for and he'd take it from there. When I learned that John had passed away unexpectedly, I knew Charlottesville had lost a true artisan and friend. What I didn't know was that his son Billy is every bit as good (if not a wee bit better). Same great spirit, same great work, and a pure delight to be around.
