Default Reputable jeweler in area?

Here we go again....can’t live without forum guidance. Looking for garnet earrings for twin granddaughters’ birthdays. Many jewelers have closed their doors. We just need reputable place...Tiffany’s not necessary, but require good quality. Thanks in advance.

Paula and crew are first rate all the way and very creative. The shop is located midway on Main Street and there are also some other competitive shops within an easy walk.

Default Blue Nile

Sue,

If you can’t find what you want locally, Have you tried online? I have had excellent luck at Blue Nile. High
Quality at decent prices.

Sorry Dan, but even though I usually like to read your posts I have to disagree with you on this one, it should be always preferable to support a local merchant over an internet vendor.
The difference in final price paid is minor in comparison to the reward of dealing a local resident ...personally.
I'm not dissing your recommendation, but I do endorse keeping our discretionary expenditures as close to home as possible because the merchant you support may be the same person you shared a laugh with the week before at the launch ramp... Buy local!

Well NH Solar, if you would have read my post thoroughly, I started it by saying...”if you can’t find what you want locally”... pretty well sums it up don’t you think?

Thank you everyone who is trying to help with this. We are going to pursue all the suggestions and hopefully we’ll find something suitable (and affordable ) for the girls. Some of the local merchants are closed until Wednesday so we’ll have to be patient. Many thanks.

Got a gold Rolex, an 1888 double eagle $20-coin or a big heavy bar of silver bullion that you need to turn into cash at a fair price to help pay your nagging property tax bill:

www.wolfsonjewelers.com, Main St, Plymouth will do a great job selling your collectible items on ebay.
