👍👍 I have been purchasing jewelry from Magpie for years as the selection of artists and styles is broad, the designs are unique, and the quality is wonderful. Overall Magpie has become a favourite in my family. The prices are also very reasonable, and the service is outstanding. If you haven't checked...

    The staff are remarkably friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful! Laurie was who helped us. My sister bought me a gnome charm for Christmas and went to Magpie for the bangle. I tend not to wear jewelry on my wrists so she took me to the store to get a silver chain. Laurie was super helpful and patient! My sister kept asking to try on rings. At least I know what to get her now ; ) I love the fact that you support local artists and are knowledgeable about them. The fact that your collection is completely unique and locally supported are two factors that will have me coming back for all my jewelry needs.

    I just had the most lovely experience today with Lori and yesterday with Tessa. Buying jewellery for others can be challenging, but they were both so attentive and suggestive in a way that made me feel so comfortable with my choices. I would highly recommend Magpie Jewellry to anyone looking for special attention, the right choice and at great prices. I feel even better knowing I supported a local business too!

    My friend and I had a great time getting our permanent bracelets on Saturday! We didn’t realize it was Glebe Garage Sale day, but the big crowds didn’t impact the process at all. We’re so happy with our beautiful bracelets and will definitely recommend to others. Thanks for a great experience!

    For a Mother’s Day gift, I took my mom to Magpie for permanent jewelry. You can book to get “Zapped” on their website. The staff were friendly and the process quick and painless! They have a full selection of bracelets to choose from as well as charms. We are very happy with our bracelets!

    Excellent service and a they carry wide range of items, both in style and pricing. I love that they are able to talk knowledgeably about the designers they represent. They did 2 repairs for me, prices were very reasonable, there was a quick turnaround and great workmanship. This is my go to jewellery shop in Ottawa and I would highly recommend it.

    I just want to say the staff at the Bank st store we’re amazing yesterday(12/19/23)!! I had previously ordered a necklace online and when I went into the store to pick my order up they had nothing but smiles and laughs. I even picked another item and they were quick to offer free wrapping for both which I had to accept. They continue to have great service anytime I go in and are really fast at replying when ordering online. I would give them 10 stars if I could

    Magpie has an awesome selection of local jewelry. I've also had rings re-sized through Magpie and it was such a seamless process. Lori and Allison at Magpie on Bank are the kindest and most helpful people to buy jewelry from too! I bought various pieces for my wedding day here, and they were so helpful when trying to choose which pieces to buy. Thanks to both of you for making my special day even more special!

    Incredible local jeweler. Created a custom engagement ring that my fiancee loves with Rebekah all through pictures emails and texts and videos. She did a fantastic job, responded quickly to emails and did her best to find the perfect ring. Thanks!

    Magpie Jewellers provided me great customer service and a wonderful unique product at a great price. Rebekha exemplified this customer service and kept a clear line of communication ,updating me regularly on where my order was at. Whenever anyone asks where they can get custom made jewellery I will always point them to Magpie. Thanks Magpie!

    My sisters and I dropped by Magpie Jewellery on Saturday. The service was exceptional. We were served by the Manager Laurie. She was not pushy like so many other salespersons we've encountered. She spent at least one hour with my sisters and I. She never got despondent or impatient with us as we were not certain what we wanted. She showed us at least half of their merchandise with a smile on her face. She is a team player. She was very kind to her staff. Their jewellery is top quality and she knows her jewellery. We ended up spending more money than anticipated and I am thrilled that we did and again without being aggressively rushed. I bought a meditation ring and 2 chains at a very reasonable price. Depending on how much you want to spend Laurie respects your budget. It was a wonderful experience and plan to go back.

    My partner and I had custom rings made at this Magpie location. The service was really involved and Laurie genuinely cared about helping us through the process of creating our rings. Very sweet and friendly. She kept us updated and informed throughout the entire process and quickly informed us when the rings were ready for pick up. The rings turned out perfect, exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend this location!

    Exceptional service from both Magpie Jewellery and Open Fire Jewellery! I bought a lovely pair of Open Fire studs a few years ago at Magpie and I wore them so much that they became worn along the edges and the lost their shine. I recently went into Bank St. Magpie to purchase a new pair (I brought the old pair to show them what I wanted) however they suggested instead that they send them back to the Open Fire Jewellery to see if Fran Miles, the jeweller, could or would do anything to repair them. Wow, did she ever repair them! They look brand new! I was absolutely thrilled when I saw them, and so grateful! What's also so impressive is that neither Open Fire Jewellery nor Magpie Jewellery charged me for the beautiful repair. Talk about excellent customer service! Thank you so much Open Fire and Magpie! I'm one happy customer!

    I have had the pleasure of shopping at Magpie Jewellery for almost 30 years. They have a beautiful selection of fine gold and diamond pieces and sterling silver classics. They are my 'go to' for gifts for myself and family and friends. The staff is always friendly, attentive and extremely knowledgeable. Can't wait to treat my nieces to Permanent Bracelets when this service comes to the Glebe! Highly recommend them!

    Laurie Gardner was an angel. She went well out of her way to help me out one morning. The store is overall awesome… exquisite and unusual jewellery, along with the most delightful salespersons.

    I happened upon MagPie Jewelery about 4 years ago while visiting my mother in Ottawa. I have been to two of their store, Rideau and one in the Glebe location. Both sites have remarkable items. Quality abound in all stores and terrific designers that make unique pieces. I recently sent down some gold ( that they give you credit for ) and had a custom ring made for myself through Anouk. I have had the best service face to face with their staff and terrific service online with their WebDesk girl. I think Magpie is wonderful , the hard work they do, including the Goldsmith ( do I mention his name 😉). Thanks all here goes a 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟+ ⭐️ A few photos below of me wearing a Poppy Finch pearl necklace, my hand wearing 2 Megan Thorne rings and the simple plain ring was made in house at Magpie with my diamond and some of my gold I shipped down 💥 the other photo is called the Princess step band, also a Megan Thorne. All beautiful and cherished.

    My husband and I are so happy with our decision to have custom wedding sets made with Magpie Jewellery. We love that they work with local designers and they're so accessible to have status updates during the design process. We had a short engagement and Magpie was able to deliver on time and create my dream engagement ring and wedding band. I would absolutely recommend to everyone!

  • 5/5 AnneMichaela M. 1 year ago on Google
    I had the absolute best experience today at Magpie! Allison and Norah were so attentive and knowledgable about the brands and made great suggestions. I never felt rushed or like I was bothering them and ended up with some really beautiful pieces. Highly recommend visiting!

  • 5/5 KD C. 1 year ago on Google
    I cannot say enough about this little ‘gem’ in the Glebe. The store is very bright and welcoming, as are the staff. I always find something to add to my collection, and love the staff recommendations. When I needed a bracelet repaired, the ease of the transaction and the turn around time was great! I highly recommend this store (and online) for ALL your jewelry shopping! When wandering through the Glebe this is a MUST stop! 💍

  • 5/5 Christina XINA L. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing customer service! I bought a beautiful pair of earrings that were not quite right, they allowed an exchange and I got something super beautiful - thanks so much for your 5-star customer service!!!!!

    I will now be shopping solely at Magpie for my jewelery. The customer service is second to none. The pieces I have bought are amazing quality. Try it out, you will not be sorry!

  • 5/5 Rylee K. 3 years ago on Google
    I simply love this store. I've shopped here for years and I've only had the best experiences. It's the best place to find gifts for others and for myself. Their selection is excellent, but they've also special ordered things for me from the local artists they work with, in a super quick and easy process. I've also had custom jewellery made at Magpie, where their own talented goldsmith recycled old gold and diamond jewellery into new pieces that I adore. Their staff is super well informed and sourced beautiful stones and materials to compliment the designs I created with them. Magpie is an Ottawa staple, and I wear jewellery from their store every day.

  • 5/5 Andrea D. 2 years ago on Google
    Rebekah was amazing!!! Literally the best customer service I have ever experienced. She was funny and witty and got me and my humor. And helped me make a great choice in a pendant I was debating on. She’s the best! I have been shopping at Magpie for over 15 years. Best in the city!

  • 5/5 Jenna J. 3 years ago on Google
    I am so extremely impressed by my experience with Magpie. They designed my custom engagement ring, which turned out better than I could have ever expected. They took my ideas and created a masterpiece! The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly. Love Magpie so much!

  • 5/5 Frances B. 3 years ago on Google
    My first google review! These young ladies are so lovely, very patient and kind, they helped me choose a lovely gift for my granddaughter's birthday, and had many insightful and helpful suggestions and ideas. I'm going to bring in one of my old gold rings and make a new custom ring! I must say I'm very excited to do this because I love the idea of recycling older pieces into new ones for the next generation. Had a lovely visit!

  • 5/5 Liz W. 1 year ago on Google
    Always a pleasure shopping at magpie in the Glebe. My husband and I treated ourselves for our 25th anniversary and purchased new wedding bands for ourselves handmade by the indigenous artists that they work with. Such beautiful and unique pieces and it feels good to know you are supporting local and Canadian artists while shopping! The staff are also always very helpful and welcoming no matter if you are making a purchase or just browsing.

  • 5/5 Paul A. 1 year ago on Google
    I have nothing but great things to say about Rebekha and her team. Whether you are a knowledgeable jewellery connoisseur or an absolute novice, they can hand-hold you through your buying experience with patience, care and unparalleled attention to detail. Whether Jude’s expert renderings or acting as a liaison with their incredible network of Canadian artists, they can’t be beat.

  • 5/5 Katie L. 2 years ago on Google
    We had an amazing experience with Rebekah at Magpie. She helped us customize an engagement ring and get it done in record time. We could not be happier with the result. Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Pat C. 2 years ago on Google
    Such a great shopping experience at Magpie! We had seen (and tried) the Vintage Rosetta by Anouk a while back while living in Ottawa and were now ready to order the ring, only we now live in Halifax. The whole online experience was made possible and easy through constant communications with Rebekha. She helped us chose the diamond and in less than a month I had the ring on my finger (and in time for Christmas!)

  • 5/5 Julia N. 1 year ago on Google
    I went in to find a specific piece of jewellery. When I entered I was greeted and asked if I've been in before. Immediately I was attended too and the sales associate was helpful and persistent (but not in a pushy way). Eventually we found the piece I wanted. Although this piece was not over 20$ in retail value, I was treated with dignity and respect. You could tell me purchase mattered to them, even though it was a simple ring. I loved feeling that I was important - no matter the price. I would highly recommend shopping here for your jewellery or a special gift for someone.

    We made my Custom engagement ring here, and the process was amazing and the prices are reasonable !! They were all so wonderful, we went in the glebe and rideau. Thank you again team ! I was even able to pick my own diamond, which was such a cool experience! Thank you Cathie, Rebecca, Jude and the Owner! Amazing!

  • 5/5 Kat N. 1 year ago on Google
    Rebekha + the team at Magpie were so attentive and helpful in helping my partner and I source a stone for and design a custom ring. We're thrilled with the result! Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Darrell G. 1 year ago on Google
    I can’t say enough about Rebekha and Magpie for helping me out with my custom engagement ring. After going to many jewelry stores to search for an engagement ring I found Magpie to be the most knowledgeable and not pushy at all. Rebekha and the team were nothing but professional, honest, patient and committed to helping me achieve my vision. Their dedication and craftsmanship truly helped make this process seamless.

    Magpie Jewellery has been “My Jewellery Store” for 20+ years. When I want something new, or need to repair something treasured and old, or want to create a special new ring from a treasured old one, this is always where I have gone. No need to look further. Unique pieces always. Fantastic Service. Reasonable price range. Top Quality. Thank you so much.
