"I fell in love with these Piaget rose bud earrings but the price was ridiculous so I did some googling to see if I could find something similar and found Krikawa's website. Their medium rose buds earrings was gorgeous. I had to have them! I was also glad they custom every aspect of it so if I wanted, I could use the different type of gold or gemstone or diamond. I had asked for la pousette/protektor posts and backing and they easily accommodated my request. I was wary about ordering custom made earrings online from a vendor so far away but I've seen Krikawa's name on some wedding and jewelry forums before and felt they were reputable. The process was incredibly easy and there was also quick response. I made a deposit through PayPal and they gave me a time frame for when the earrings would be complete. The quoted time frame was very spot on. I got an email a few days before and completed the purchase via credit card and the earrings were overnighted to me. The packaging of the FedEx box was secure so no chance of anything fall out. The earrings itself was in a very pretty, heavy jewelry box within a chiffon bag. They didn't skimp on packaging. The earrings themselves were just as they were on the photos online - very beautiful! The diamonds were sparkly and eye clean. (I've seen some cloudy and poor quality diamond accents before so this was a pleasant surprise.) Overall, I'm incredibly happy and would buy from them again."
"I seriously had fun shopping I there. I was taught the art of bargaining for a price that I was willing to pay. After looking through the entire store, I found two pendants that I couldn't afford without the deals. Walked out with two wonderful pieces that I will treasure for years. Thanks so much for working with my budget."
"This is my 4th time here, that alone should tell you that they have earned my repeat business. Since my wife and kids enjoy breaking their jewelry, im so glad this man is reasonable, skilled, and available. Has a diverse selection of jewelry as well.Location immediately off Highway 92, near a few venues within walking distance. Some more parking to the side as well. Keep up the good work"
"Still open and still quirky cool! Keep in mind you have to wear a mask, they are immune compromised. There is lots of stuff but you really need to have a general idea of what you are looking for and it's required maintenance. I recommend this little shop for sightseeing and shopping!"
"Wow, Ruby, Jane Designs have a leak and beautiful selection of clothing for women. Each outfit that I saw was better than the next. I was really attending an art fair but the diversion was nice."
"My friend told me about the store last week. I was in Tucson from KS and had brought with me a ring I had bought a few years ago in north AZ, I thought it was turquoise, turns out it was chysocolla. None the less I love the color and Casey had some. I was able to get a pendant and earrings that coordinate nicely and he was able to get it done before I left town! I also found turquoise pendants for my granddaughters. I hope some day I can come back! Prices were very reasonable!"
"To be honest, it initially felt sketchy buying an item at a pawn shop and I had huge reservations. However, Joey provided excellent customer service and demonstrated such enthusiasm for his job. I am very pleased with my first experience in a pawn shop."
"Wow! So glad I found this place! What a treasure! Quina repaired 3 rings with many prong issues. My jewelry looks great is secure and the service was great! If you need repairs or that special custom piece this is the place to go."
"Lovely place! A lot of really cool, unique and beautiful items! Really enjoyed chatting with the owners! Very friendly and welcoming, we will be back..."
"The fellow here designed my wedding ring - with the input of my husband, of course, and the placement of old family diamonds. It's been almost half a decade since then, and I still receive compliments on the uniqueness of my ring. In fact, a professional metropolis (city slicker?) jeweler once cleaned it for me and commented, "I've never seen a ring like this. You should be proud." I am. Also, I regularly knock the crap out of this ring with no ill effect. Sturdy as all get out!(I only wish I had a professional photo to upload.)"
"Love love love Mr AZ Jewelers!!! I went in to have get my wedding ring fixed and he did it for an awesome price and so quickly and efficiently. Nothing gets "sent off" everything is done right on site. He also has a great selection of jewelry. Very friendly. I would recommend him to anyone."
"So this is by the gas station south of Broadway, or is it Congress on that side, and west of the highway. I love the Tucson Gem show and all the internationals it brings right to our doorstep (it is like traveling without leaving the country). During the show I go all 3 weekends and after work, not so much to buy but to see things that may never be seen again in in public before it goes into someones personal collection. Through the years I have gotten to know many of the vendors and look forward to seeing them and the things they bring. This is a great place to get things from places i have traveled, I often see things while traveling that are to cumbersome to carry for months on end, and can get them here. it has also iv en different viewpoints on where to travel and what people are thinking."

I needed to get my rings resized and Krikawa did a wonderful job. Everyone there is extremely helpful and nice to work with. They gave me a couple of simple bands in slightly different sizes so I could try them throughout the day and overnight to make sure I picked the right size. That approach worked so well! My rings now fit perfectly. I didn't buy any of their jewelry but did get to look at some different items and their jewelry is gorgeous. Can't wait to go back and buy something. In addition to sizing and cleaning my rings they also cleaned a necklace for me so everything is clean and sparkles again. Thank you Krikawa.

I see lots of positive comments and a few negative comments. However in our more recent visits to this store (actually quite a few visits and purchases) we have been treated very well. My husband loves to chat with people and he has always been treated kindly. They are willing to bargain which is nice. We always drop by there every time we visit Tubac and we have never observed or experienced rudeness.

Love this store! And as an ordained minister I will be recommending people come here first! Seriously, as I lost a Diamond in my 3 stone Diamond yesterday, today and tomorrow. We'd been looking at Anniversary rings together and Kay's Jeweler's in the Mall had the one we thought would match my rings. Huge mistake, for after 3 weeks and having the stone fall out, again, they kept us around 3 hours in 2 visits. my husband was so annoyed at their attitude we left with him shouting we would never shop there again. We won't. Rings were sized too big. So we took them to Henry. They fit better although b/c of my arthritic fingers I had to buy special sizers to keep them from spinning on finger. And when we returned for the rings I took in Jewelry I never wear and exchanged for a very pretty opal/gold ring. On here today as I need my arthritic magnetic bracelet sized for my right wrist. Handwriting has become very difficult so I'm hoping this bracelet will help with the arthritis. Looking forward to going in and seeing what they have in shop now, and hopefully say hi to his son. He's very helpful and sweet. My grandsons live in other states, so it's always nice to chat with this young man. The Golden Rule is a family business and they make you feel like you belong. Guess Kay's just didn't think our purchase was important or they have major computer problems, lose their rings and stones. Took 2 tries, 3 weeks and if I'd known what it was going to look like we'd probably have bought a new setting with a bigger diamond than they stuck in. They cautioned me the diamonds needed extra gold, too bad they didn't actually listen to me. We bought a wedding band elsewhere too. Now, I'll have Henry clean my ring and check the stones. Wish I'd never gone to Kay Jewelers in the Sierra Vista Mall. Highly recommend the Golden Rule if you are looking for jewelry or antiques.

On my first visit, in late January 2025, I scratched my head at the limited hours Ye Olde Clock Shoppe maintains. As I worked with owners Ashera and Scotty Dean - on short notice - to have Scotty disassemble, move, and reassemble a 200-year-old grandfather clock on Feb. 1, I was very impressed at their teamwork and great technical services. Ye Olde Clock Shoppe is the sole vendor in Tucson for many clock-related services - My advice is to show respect and courtesy, be fair and a little patient, and you will receive a high level of old-fashioned customer service and technical support.

Stumbled into this store and found the cutest cheetah peplum mesh tank top for $40. I had to have it. I would definitely encourage y'all to walk into this store. I'm in my 30s and initially the clothing from the outside seemed a little more mature. I'm glad that regardless I went inside because I did end up finding some cute clothes that would be flattering to most age demographics.The store was well laid out and the racks weren't cluttered so it was easy to look through and see the clothing. I like that they had themes or good color coding to help navigate the racks. Aside from clothing they had cute jewelry and some home goods items. The prices really ranged. My tank top was a reasonable $40 given the shape and pattern, however my friends looked at some tops that were $90+. You really just need to look around.I actually felt that the jewelry was very well priced! In hindsight I should have bought a necklace and wristlet I was looking at but this was one of my last shops of the day and I was on spending overload. At least their jewelry is reasonable and cute.The gals that were working here were super professional and attentive. They made us all feel welcome and helped us find our clothes and gave such sweet compliments and suggestions as we tried on outfits. They were so helpful and made our experience an A+. I will definitely be coming back next time I'm in town as they have cute stuff here.

"Bill Thigpen and his staff, including Mari Frye, are great folks to deal with. They are the best jewelers we have known, from San Diego to Boston to Chicago to here.From them, we have purchased jewelry, had jewelry appraised, and just received good old cracker-barrel advice from them.You'll see in the photo that they are open for biz via appointment."
"This is such a fun little gem at hidden off the main strip. I stumbled across it by accident, and boy was like a kid in a candy shop! So much fun jewelry! I got two rings for $10 total and a really pretty silver cuff for $12. They also have vintage clothes, men's section, Socks, you name it it's probably here. A great place to pick up gifts for friends, or unique items for yourself. I cannot wait to go back."
"A super jeweler, wonderful bracelets, necklaces and rings. If I didn't wear my own jewelry (I also make jewelry, but fused glass-- not copper or beads /gems), I'd be wearing Gale's. She's very accommodating if you need something special, and she's happy to teach you to make your own. She makes some really spectacular, unique pieces."
"Any time I am in Tucson, I have to make a point to come visit their showroom. They have all sorts of gems, blings, diamonds and everything in between. The staff is always helpful and knowledable especially Mario who has been doing this trade from as long as I can remember. They do everything from customs to personalized. Truly my one stop store to go for all my bling needs"
"I'm love with the pieces that I purchased! They restored a piece of Jewellery that had so much sentimental value and it's so beautiful! The customer service is awesome! Highly recommend"
"What a treat! So nice to be able to spend time with the artist, a very lovely lady who took the time to describe her art to us. She has been there for a while and she has a wide selection. Worth stopping by."
"Very pleasant folks and a quick battery change! Right around the corner!. Happy to recommend."
"Agustin Trading Company is first and foremost known for their handmade moccasins, which are gorgeous! And still on my wish list. But this locally owned shop, located at the Mercado San Agustin is packed will all kinds of other gems, such as beautiful jewelry, textlines, hats, pottery and more. I bought my husband a gorgeous Oscar Alexius cuff for Christmas. The jewelry is from well known artists and I think they are collectors items for sure. Jesse, the owner handmakes the moccasins. The process is really meant to be custom, so I suggest you give yourself time to get measured appropriately. One of my local favorites!"
"Great place to shop for jewelery.... Very knowledgeable people and the service is worth the visit. I never felt rushed and never felt like I had to buy something that day."
"Looking for that special, unusual gift. This little gem of a shop is packed with a new selection of unique goods for to consider buying."
"Located right inside of Tucson Mall. I got a necklace fixed here - they told me it would be two days to finish, but called the same day to say it was done! I said, "that was fast", and he said "yes maam, that's why we're called 'fast fix jewelry'" LOL! Then I got my wedding ring resized and fixed, that one did take a week, no big deal at all. They first told me $400.00, and I hesitated, then they asked what would I pay! I got it down to $300.00! So they will haggle with you! Fast and friendly, and they were busy each time that I went. They did a beautiful job, and my wedding ring looked new and gorgeous when I picked it up, and now fits perfectly!"
"You can't do any better than a great and honest jeweler... unless they are local! Perri is my go to for repairs and to shop for ideas. They just completed "another" repair and cleaning on our wedding rings. Very reasonable, considering the work. Call ahead for an appointment. Small shop, across from great downtown restaurants . Street parking, on the rail line, lots of garages nearby."
"I don't shop in person that much, but when I do, I go to a few of my favorite shops, and that's it. This year I started my Xmas shopping at Beth Friedman Collection. As a cool upscale boutique, It's got a lot to choose from and the taste level is high. I love it!So when I walked in and revisited it (from last year :)) I noticed everything was re-arranged. One whole side of the shop is now devoted strictly to Alex and Ani bracelets - you know, what all the young girls want to wear now. So Beth gave me a tour of shop and I found just the right gifts for my friends.Didn't buy a dress, but coming back for that soon. Here's what they have: Holiday-dressy Faviana and Nicole Miller dresses, Michele watches, latest hip casual tops and things, and unique retro and current jewelry.And if anyone's looking for Alex and Ani bracelets in Tucson, this is absolutely the place!"
"This is the place for people like me who ridiculous about their watches, yes i am am that guy.I have been collecting watches as long as I can remember and there is up keep especially on the older ones. I first discovered this place about 10 years ago, when I was having problems with my band on one of my Tag Heuer's, I took it to all the high end stores and none of them could fix it, when a friend of mine told me about Az Watch, in the Tucson Mall. They said they were the best in town, I reticent at first to go to the mall of all places, to get a high end watch fixed. I did and they did a phenomenal job, and I have been a taking all my watches there ever since, from the cheap watch I got on the streets of Phnom Penh Cambodia, to my Tags, I would not trust anybody else with them. I am going in next month to have them fix my vintage Omega. Don't waist your time with anybody else!"
"David does AMAZING jewelry work! He's creative, meticulous and professional. The first piece we bought from him was a gorgeous bracelet made of inlaid stones and depicts various scenes. Then he created a beautiful pendant to match existing pieces and earrings to match a necklace. They both came out more beautiful than I expected.You'll see him at the various annual and semi-annual gem shows. Be sure to stop by his booth and see his work. If nothing there strikes you, ask what creations he can make for you to match any existing jewelry you have that are crying out for those missing complimentary or matching pieces!SandraMarin County, California"
"Vincent is the best!!! He does all of our repairs on jewelry and watches and we bought the most beautiful cuff turquoise bracelets that he created! True artist!!"
"As much as my kid and I wanted to take our time souvenir shopping during our Tucson itinerary, it just didn't happen. So Del Sol on N. 4th in Tucson, came as an expensive (didn't want to) last resort right before my daughter and I headed to the airport. The owner provided tissue paper to protect a small vase for my mom, 2 color Southwestern jewelry tin boxes and of course, a dream catcher and secured with heavy-duty packing tape. Yes, you can expect to find a wide variety of items that reflect the local culture at Del Sol. And yes, the craftsmanship is all here including traditional clothing, accessories, and OMG- the handcrafted turquoise jewelry- but price wise, is slightly up there."
"Colors of the Stone is an annual show. It is held at the Casino del Sol in Tucson. At one time the show focused on beads, wire, equipment, classes and findings. Now it has grown to more than that. You'll see wearables, masks, defensive gear, edibles and more. Plan on spending at least two hours or more. All owners and artists are available for questions. Free outdoor, covered and valet parking. WiFi in the casino."
"Had a great experience with these folks. Super knowledgeable and patient explaining everything. Gave me great pricing and made the transaction simple and fast."
"Sara and premiere design jewelry are a wonder addition to any event you are hosting. Sara is outgoing, energetic and knows her stuff. I am a jewelry novice and fell in love with Premier Design Jewelry. I recently hosted a catalog show and have received to many compliments on my new purchases"
"Went here after another jeweler couldn't fix my wife's ring. We'll they said they could but it just failed again. Sais quoted the fix, then identified that the ring was created wrong and had to fix the gem basket, so they did without any added fee. Now I believe the ring is properly fixed."
"It's cute quiet and the prices are pretty spot on. I felt some of the workers were a little rude but that isn't the main thing I try to focus on. If you like unique spots you definitely need to stop in here!"
"Super nice jewelry store featuring nice Navajo style jewelry. Beautiful fire agates from Arizona in wonderful colors. Beautiful deep blue Azurite."
