  • 4/5 Tiffany Danilewicz R. 4 years ago on Google
    Very kind owners and staff friendly knowledgeable. Good selection, missing a few things I wish they had like more options in Argentium particularly dead soft guages etc (but I can anneal, just more work and for the price meh) one and only big issue I have is most items, especially the Argentium is Extremely over priced! Online ordering from my normal supplier for exact same wires are literally at least 1/5th of what I'm charged here, but good profit margins for them as shipping isn't even expensive and it's even less expensive buying in bulk than what I pay online, so they're definently making way more than necessary on their Argentium at least (if I'm wrong, start ordering from RioGrande the #1 trusted source for Argentium perhaps then you can lower your prices a bit for us in a pinch forced to grab a couple feet here and there locally). But you pay for the immediate pickup I suppose, all about that convenience pricing. But there other items are usually very reasonably priced and of the best quality. I love nothing more than going through all there cabs and gems picking out new gorgeous pieces to create with. My best ones always come from them! The owners are amazing and the "wife" (I believe? Pardon me I'm assuming) has the most extensive knowledge and memory imaginable on literally every gem she has handpicked for their shop. She can tell you absolutely anything about everything and is truly just amazing! Love the new location even more and prices on tools and everyday metalsmith needs seem to have lessened to a more affordable cost making me far more likely to buy local vs. Online especially when I need something ASAP or when I have questions first. They are all amazing with their knowledge of product. Def. Best place for jewelers and gem lovers alike that this island has to offer and has most everything you can't find anywhere else besides online. Love to look and touch before you buy? Have questions first? Need tips or advice? Seriously just stop by their new store. You'll get everything you need with amazing customer service to boot! :)

    I have been a patron of The Bead Gallery since ever since. Jamie and Jason and their super-creative crew are so helpful whenever you need advice on stones or supplies. Their shop is beautifully kept and is inspiring whenever you walk in. Good vibes, good people, good bead shopping!

    I absolutely love this store! It's very organized. They have every bead you can think of and what I love the most is amount of crystal beads they have. I make crystal jewelry and they have so many different shapes and sizes. Even crystals I've never heard of. Their service was very friendly, and attentive. I could spend all day in there.

    I love the selection they have! They have an amazing variety of beads, gems, and other precious things to help you with your creative experience. They even sell kits, and if a kit is unavailable, they have videos online to help you so you can buy the items seperately, and make them yourself! 😍❤

    One of the most amazing jewelry making spots I've come across. They are all so friendly & knowledgeable., & always able & willing to help with my jewelry projects. I thought the new required appointments for in-store shopping would be somewhat off-putting, but it wasn't at all. It actually made the experience a bit more personal & intriguing. Definitely a must visit place if you have a love for jewelry & some bottled up creativity.

    The best place to go for your beads, gemstones and findings. Everyone is super helpful. Not sure what works together? They will help and make suggestions. They have classes geared to various levels of experience. I have never been disappointed in what I've made at my skill level. It's a nice place to just cruise around and relax. Check them out!

    The couple, Jamie and Jason provide you with friendly service and knowledge of the art of designing with beads, metal work, etc. The Bead Gallery has the most complete selection of beading supplies and a large selection of beads, minerals, and crystals from very affordable to gem quality beads. They have endless inventory of supplies for you to select from and they carry the finest quality of tools of the trade. They have beginner as well as advanced classes and also video tutorials available. They will assist you in designing a piece of wearable jewelry that is made for you. They will also assist you in finishing a project you may have started and couldn't finish.

    Such a wonderful bead + charm store!! You ring the doorbell and they'll buzz you up. The owners are so helpful and directed me to exactly what I needed and had perfectly clear and concise answers for my questions on saltwater metal tarnishing, and DIY coatings. I resisted the urge to browse absolutely everything they had in stock today but I'm excited to come back for future jewelry and DIY endeavors :))
