I was recommended this store from a friend. It did not disappoint and saw about a million things that I needed ( wanted). I recommend my husband to visit. I always will support a shop that carries extensive sizes in there ring options. I can tell I’m going to be a regular!!! Beautiful options!!!
Really unique pieces! Price range is great too, spans from affordable to very nice jewelry. The same gal with red curly hair is usually there, she is super sweet and helpful! Love to stop in every once in a while to chat and look at the new items.
Begin is absolutely incredible! The staff is warm, welcoming, and so knowledgeable—they make every visit feel special. The store itself is stunning, offering an exquisite atmosphere that enhances the entire experience. MK’s creations are truly soulful; each piece feels unique, meaningful, and an absolute joy to wear. I always feel more radiant and connected when adorning myself with these beautiful designs. MK's creations and curations are not just jewelry, but treasures that carry heart and spirit.
Over the years, I have adopted treasured pieces of jewelry from this store - wedding earrings, silver rings, octopus hoops, statement earrings... This store has it all. The owner MK is an exceptional artist. Her tribe of women who manage the store (Kelsey, Alicia, and Zoe) are kindhearted and inspired women. This shop is truly a corner-stone of Ballard’s charm.
This store has local, unique, and high quality jewelry pieces. I bought a one-of-a-kind necklace here last year that I never take off and they customized it to my desired lengths. It initially came with a very dainty chain that can't survive my chaotic nature, I took it into the shop for repairs a few times and they were always so friendly and willing to repair it. A year later I finally got a heftier chain that has my charm customized to sit in the middle so the closure stays in the back! Every time I bring it in the owner recognizes the charm which feels really special and unique. I love this shop!!
