I went into the store to try to exchange or get my money back and store owner was extremely rude and said she would not help me and accused me of dropping it. Horrible quality and horrible service.

I was aimlessly wandering around Bozeman trying to find some good shopping, as I needed something…read moreto remember my trip by. I stopped in about 8 different stores, but nothing was really speaking to my soul. It felt more like shopping in LA than what I thought Montana would be like. "Boz Angeles," as one of my uber drivers called it. I was dejected from not finding anything, and set off to meet the rest of the bachelor party at a steakhouse. It was then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw 2 rustic yellow chairs with a sign that read "Rare Bird Vintage." I entered into the small, highly curated space that is an ideal vintage shop. A healthy mix of clothing, old trinkets, bags, books, postcards, shoes, etc. The tags on everything have handwritten prices and notes on each individual item of when it's made. This attention to detail can only come from passion. I immediately pulled off a denim jacket off the rack and tried it on. The owner, Olivia, ran over and said "That looks so good on you, but I have another deadstock denim jacket from the early 90s that I think would look AMAZING on you." I tried it on and loved it, but it was slightly oversized. I'm really shy and insecure so I asked Olivia's opinion. "It honestly fits you perfect. It reminds me of something that I would see in Shibuya, this is a classic Japanese look." 90% of my personality is my trip to Japan and how much I love Japanese culture, so I had no choice. She and her mom, who also owns the shop, gave me a full rundown on how to wash this deadstock denim and why it is such a unique piece. You could just feel the passion oozing out of them. While checking out for both denim jackets, I found a sweatshirt for my girlfriend, a vintage coffee table book about Florence, and a cool Hokkaido pin. I just shook my head and said "I gotta get out of here..." I was BUZZIN in here. It's electric. Thank you Rare Bird, I will pass these jackets to my kids once the curtain closes on me.

But today they really knocked it out of the ballpark when my boyfriend of two years very unexpectedly asked me to marry him, and we went to the Gem Gallery and found the perfect ring. I am so grateful to Ellie, Sonya, & Jason for making today happen; I was able to walk out with the most gorgeous Montana sapphire that matches my eyes! Plus since my partner and I are both native Montanans, it means so much to us. Plus, Brandon has just always been great at helping me with a myriad other things I will not go for jewelry anywhere else in town! For some reason, Yelp is not letting me check value, but I do feel that the jewelry in the store is fairly priced and the workmanship is unprecedented!

I love the Gem Gallery. About 7 years ago, my darling husband proposed to me with a gorgeous…read moreart-nouveau-style ring (my favorite style) with diamond chips and a tanzanite (my favorite color), which knocked my socks off. I was warned that tanzanite is a soft stone, and scratches easily. I'm kind of hard on my physical belongings...not the most graceful character, really. The tanzanite became progressively more scratched and muddy, dull and opaque. And then -- tragedy! I lost one of the tiny diamonds (I guess I shouldn't have worn the ring scuba-diving). My plan: get the ring repaired (new diamond), resized (I'd lost 70 lbs and it was loose), and replace the tanzanite with a sapphire. The Gem Gallery was recommended to me not only because they are purveyors of fine Yogo Montana sapphires (which are aren't strip-mined in Asia using slave labor, and don't fund anybody's murderous wars), but because they do quality work. Sure enough, they repaired the ring perfectly (you can't tell the tiny diamonds apart, and you can't tell that the ring's been resized), and they found THE ideal Yogo sapphire -- a deep purple-blue that is my absolute favorite color (and a rare color in sapphires). (It changes color, depending on the light!) They corresponded with me cheerfully and kept me informed of progress, and they even took some old gold rings of mine that I don't wear in exchange (for the price of the gold), making the total cost of the repair quite affordable. I had a great experience, and would happily recommend the Gem Gallery to anyone looking for custom work. Their website is dynamite, too -- you can see their whole inventory, and purchase things securely online. Did I mention that my total transactions with the Gem Gallery took place online, and across an international border (I'm in Canada)? Very impressive.

I appreciate various cultures and experiences, but never quite understood the link between rocks and minerals and aging Karens with their crystals and dreamcatchers who wish with all their being that they would be invited to be an honorary member of a Native American tribe.

The jeweler doing the testing used a device on each diamond and stated that at least one gemstone was not natural. Upon having the item re-tested elsewhere, I was told that the diamonds were authentic and real. Two jewelers indicated the piece authentic. Alara did not. The other jewelers provided this explanation: if a jeweler is using a lower end tester for diamonds, the way those work, is that they test for light refraction and can confuse natural diamonds that may have some fluoresce with lab created diamonds.

My fiancé purchased a vintage diamond and brought it to Miller's to have it set for me. He…read morepresented a few ideas and sought the advice from the Miller's team in designing an heirloom piece for me. He proposed in March and I wore it out only on special occasions (I work with my hands) and by November, I noticed a large chip in my stone. We went in to the store in person to have the ring evaluated for structural issues and discuss potential solutions. The floor rep seemed very surprised at the setting, claiming the stone was too thin to be set in this manner. The issue was brought to the owner, who blew us off. They offered to start over and reset the stone in a more secure setting (at our expense, of course) and offered no reasoning as to why this could have happened. I called later to discuss the situation with the owner, who was incredibly condescending and offered no recourse. To quote Cec, "If you drive a car off the lot and get in an accident, do you call and complain to the sales rep?" As far as I'm concerned, if you buy a brand new car, drive it off the lot, and have a mechanical issue at 2,000 miles, you sure do. They send their jewelry off to be set by a third party and finish the design work in house. If they weren't able to come up with a design to support this diamond for basic wear, I wonder what we actually paid them for... The diamond in question was cut in the late 1800s... it made it all the way to Miller's in 2025 and then didn't make it more than 7 months of light wear. I'm sure their showroom pieces purchased from 3rd parties is fine but if you have custom work or require skilled service, I'd save your valuables and yourself the headache and head elsewhere. That's what we'll be doing.
