Jan. 31, 2006 Jewelry shops
Seattle is rich in shops that sell vintage estate jewelry or will set your family stone in a new setting. If you're bent on buying something new, no problem — there are several talented, fresh designers in town who will see things your way.
Tip: Make sure you learn what the store guarantees before you buy. Will they clean and inspect your ring for free? Will they replace the stone if it falls out? Can you return your custom piece if you don't like it? TALK TO US
Alexandria Rossoff
(Downtown)
Alexandria Rossoff has made her mark in Seattle by selling "the stuff Napoleon would buy for Josephine."
Goldmine Jewelry
(Downtown)
Wedding rings are always symbolic — you know, the eternal circle and all — but at Goldmine, you can literally pour your heart into it.
Green Lake Jewelry Works
(North Seattle)
Green Lake Jewelry is where the old and new worlds intersect. Artisans work on site to handcraft rings from gold and platinum.
Michael W. Farrell Jewelers
(Sandpoint/Wedgwood)
In addition to a handsome collection of estate jewelry — antique platinum filigree rings are popular — Farrell creates a line of lightweight titanium bands in whatever forms you can dream up (he also works in gold and platinum).
Turgeon Raine
(Downtown)
If you're dazzled by diamonds, please keep your enthusiasm under wraps here. The Turgeon Raine store is sleek, low-key, high-end and contemporary, much like its pieces.
