This is a newly-opened jewelry firm in Highlands, NC. The owner is a jewelry designer from Florida…read more She is very competent, enjoys working with customers, and prices her work fairly. I have appreciated her jewelry designing talent enormously for more than a decade. She has designed at least 30 items for me. Every item was precisely and carefully created. Her work is admired by numerous out-of-state residents who annually seek her advice and assistance. Her store is located about two blocks from the main intersection in Highlands. She offers jewelry items at various price points, including even jewels for the high-end market. Jewelry repair is offered, too. She always backs the quality of her work. There's never a charge for making adjustments to purchased items. What is most unusual about her demeanor is her ability to work with her customers to determine their purpose/desire for jewelry. Even if you acquire gems from foreign countries, as I have, she will gladly guide you through the process of enhancing the gem for its most impressive presentation. Appraisal professionals are highly complimentary of her offerings and the quality of her work.
