Absolutely
blown
away
by
the
service
my
partner
and
I
got
while
there.
We
saw
the
shop
and
spontaneously
decided
to
pop
in.
Employees
were
incredibly
kind,
and
one
in
particular,
whilst
most
likely
fully
knowing
we
weren't
going
to
buy
anything
(based
on
our
young
age
and
my
own
disheveled
appearance)
still
nonetheless
went
through
and
showed
us
in
person
every
piece
we
found
interesting,
and
more,
with
no
sense
of
obligation
to
buy
anything
at
all.
It
felt
like
the
three
of
us
were
just
sharing
our
mutual
appreciation
for
some
of
the
uniquely
and
subtly
characteristic
pieces
they
had,
rather
than
a
back-and-forth
between
an
"employee"
and
us
"customers."
They
have
an
incredible
selection
of
pieces
from
many
dates.
The
man
showing
us
around
made
no
noticeable
presumptions
based
on
my
own
looks-
I
am
a
male
with
many
piercings,
didn't
have
the
cleanest
hygiene
that
day,
and
was
wearing
inexpensive,
sometimes
ill-fitting
clothes.
I
was
never
in
one
moment
given
the
feeling
that
a
single
one
of
my
many
questions
was
improper
or
too
infringing
for
him
to
answer.
Furthermore,
the
gentleman
helping
us
(I
wish
I
could
remember
his
name)
was
able
to
bring
each
piece
out
for
us
to
see
and
explained
everything
we
were
interested
in
with
incredible
detail.
Throughout
our
time
there,
he
talked
about
the
specifics
regarding
each
piece's
history
and
the
culture
of
the
era
in
which
they
were
made.
He
went
on
to
show
the
differences
in
how
certain
jewels,
rings,
and
necklaces
were
made
back
in
the
1800's/early
1900's
versus
today's
techniques,
even
going
as
far
as
to
sketch
diagrams
of
cuts/reflections
of
light,
and
used
UV
light
to
show
the
iridescence
of
certain
gems.
Frankly,
this
kind
man
embodied
the
epitome
of
a
sincere
gentleman.
My
partner
and
I
had
a
blast-
it
was
the
highlight
of
our
day,
and
the
man
showing
us
around
ended
up
expressing
that
he
himself
enjoyed
the
experience
very
much.
A
gem
of
a
place,
if
I
may
make
such
a
pun.
To
anyone
reading,
please
do
feel
free
to
stop
by,
even
if
you
don't
particularly
plan
on
buying
anything.
You'd
be
surprised
at
the
joy
of
seeing
some
of
the
unique
pieces
that
you
really
can't
find
anywhere
else
these
days.
Rings
and
necklaces,
when
it
comes
to
gems
and
style,
have,
I
feel,
become
incredibly
main-streamed
in
this
day
and
age.
I
feel
that
most
companies
approach
things
with
a
"the
shinier
and
more
flashy,
the
better"
approach,
to
the
point
of
frankly
gaudy
and
vain
expressions
that
underlie
so
many
designs.
This
store
has
pieces
ranging
a
wide
variety
of
tastes,
and
included
many
that
didn't
stand
out
due
to
their
visual
brightness
or
value
of
the
gems,
but
rather
through
the
soft
elegance
and
smooth
demeanor
of
the
character
they
embodied,
perhaps
due
to
the
times
(oftentimes
more
than
a
century
ago)
they
were
made
in,
and
the
skill
of
the
store
in
determining
the
value
and
expression
of
pieces
they
buy.
Definitely
some
eye-catching
yet
truly
artistic
items.
I
tend
to
be
a
very
picky
person
when
it
comes
to
jewelry
that
I
find
tasteful
and
beautiful
and
as
such
do
not
generally
enjoy
such
things,
but
I
was
surprised
by
how
satisfying
the
experience
of
just
looking
at
some
of
this
store's
pieces
was.
I
do
hope
to
come
back.
It's
really
a
wonderful
store
staffed
by
incredibly
kind
people.
Thank
you
to
the
man
who
showed
us
around.
You
made
our
day
:)
If
you're
in
any
way
a
fan
of
tasteful
jewelry,
I
feel
you
would
be
depriving
yourself
by
not
visiting
this
store.
Again,
thank
you
to
the
kind
gentleman
and
to
Small
Pleasures
as
a
whole.
I
hope
you
all
have
a
wonderful
week.
