Co-founders Sam Coyne and Jesse Craig are known for their unhurried customer service, impeccable credentials and decadeslong expertise in jewelry (business, design, and restoration). There is no commission clock ticking here; they work with you to figure out the ideal gift. This small, tastefully appointed independent shop has been an important part of Ellicott City since 2000, and all of its jewelry can be viewed on its website. It's also rightfully proud of its restoration capabilities. If you ran over grandmother's ring and other places said it can't be fixed, bring it here.
