Great estate jewelry with a highly skilled staff. They know their products and are backed up by a gemologist and jewelers who can create jewelry for you or customize a piece they or you already have. They are patient and and very thorough. I trust them to do fine work with fine materials. If you cant find that special piece that you didnt know you were looking for, this is the place to go.

Thank you Nina for going out if your way to fix my earrings. Despite of the work orders you receive each day you made me so happy to solder my earring for my bday. It was an excellent job and excellent customer service.Thank you.

I came into Maloys searching for the perfect engagement ring and found it. I spoke with Eve, I showed her photos of rings Id tried on at other jewelery stores and briefly mentioned what I liked about them but that I wasnt feeling that spark that would make a ring worth the price. She told me she has a knack for matching people to their ring and she nailed mine on the first try. She showed me this ring that was outside the budget Id first given her, but I felt that spark so strongly I didnt mind adding to my budget. The history, craftsmanship, unique style, and sparkle of this antique ring was all so special, Im so glad Maloys was recommended to me after I struggled at the traditional new jewelry stores.

Maloys Jewelry Workshop is awesome! I have a 50 year old mechanical watch that needed service. Im always hesitant about places that dont service in house, but I took a chance and was pleasantly surprised! Jen was very polite and communicated with me through the process. I never met the watch maker, but he had my watch back in less than 2 weeks and running well! If you visit the shop, ask about the old man who brought in the watch he was wearing on the USS Indianapolis...Update: Over a year later my 51 year old basic workhorse Seiko 5126 movement is still keeping perfect time! The watchmaker obviously took exceptional care in servicing and regulating my timepiece. But you dont have to take my word for it, let the atomic clock show you how good this place is!

I have to express my total gratitude for the service and craftmanship of the jeweler who restored my wedding ring of 49 years to its beauty.I had small rubies which the prongs kept failing. I kept restoring the rubies and prongs only to continue same problem. And then I found Maloys. Within a half hour consultation wedecided to remove the ruby and change the design to replace it with a gold leaf which balanced the other two leaves with the diamond in the middle. When I saw and placed it home on my finger, I felt it better than original... as if it was always the way it is today. I fell in love with my simple classic wedding set from 1972.From my moment of walking into Maloy’s Jewelry, we were treated with profession and warmth, and expertise which brings trust.Thank you very much.Valerie Roche

This shop was recommended to me by a co-worker and its adorable! Their styles are great, love the vintage looks of their jewelery. We ended up buying an engagement ring the same day as our appointment and it was sized within the week! Highly recommend ❤️

An excellent place to source indigenous jewelry. They have a large assortment of other items that are antique and might be what your looking for. Its great to have a place local instead of trusting an eBay seller.

Cant recommend enough! Ive had two custom rings made by maloys. The staff is very easy to talk with. Laid back vibe (no feelings of typical jewelry store pressure). Prices are extremely affordable and quality is top notch!

Always amazing customer service, and incredible attention to detail. They take the quality and overall integrity of your vintage jewelry very seriously. Both my engagement ring and wedding ring came from here, were sized here, and they did an amazing job. Each experience left me beaming and happy.

I am sorry that I wasted my time visiting this store. They were recommended by another jewelry store to take a piece I had that I was contemplating selling. I never wear the piece and I had it sized down to wear on my pinky finger which was a horrible mistake. In a rather cold tone I was informed that they wouldnt be interested in it because it had a very large crack in the 1 carat stone. I had already mentioned that I was told it had a chip. You cant even see it unless you use a very high powered lens. Being rude to a potential seller/buyer doesnt bode well with me. I brought my fiance with me and they didnt acknowledge him but, did look at him as if he were going to rob them. When I made the appointment, they were told that he would accompany me.

Malloys is a treasure and a landmark shop that you should visit anytime you are looking for great pieces of vintage jewelry and vintage watches and timekeeping pieces. They have a great collection of beautiful rings, necklaces, pendants and other items gathered from obviously upper and estate sales and the like. The watches they have for sale are unusual and many nice pocket watch pieces as well as mens and womens wrist watches. Many are out of my budget range, but they also provide prompt and friendly service for replacement of watch batteries and adjustment of sizing of metal watch bands. I visited last week to have the metal band of my new Seiko watch properly sized by removing three metal bands and Jennifer did a great job removing 3 links and giving them to me for possible future use if my wrist expands. I almost walked out without paying her then turned back to settle up, but she refused to take any payment!. Anyone should visit this wonderful little shop that has been there for as long as my office has been here, at least 20 years. Great service, great inventory, and great ladies.

Antique jewelry should not be taken to a “regular” store. Antiques must go to people who know about them. This is the place to go. These guys are fantastic. They know their stuff. This is the place for family jewelry repairs and even match ups. They are also very creative with pieces you don’t use anymore.

I came in with a hatpin I wanted to make into an ear crawler and one of their amazing bench jewelers figured out how to turn it into exactly what I wanted for a super affordable price! Is she a magic elf? Probably. Go spend your money here- you will thank me.

My husband and I found our rings here and were very happy with the knowledge and how fast they were ready. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a vintage/antique ring thats unique. We also got a voucher for Momos next door for champagne since we purchased engagement/weddings bands.

Friendly staff, convenient location, eazy transaction look me up on. If you need to get some quick cash and have a handful of jewelry you need to repurpose, this place will give you more than the other guys.

Review №19

In just about any situation, I respect an approach that is guided by the most knowledge, the most evidence, and is the most fair.The vintage dealer that sold me my ring told me one expectation about the condition of it. And I got another expectation from a different jewelry shop. And I did a little research.Then I went to Maloys. I didnt say what I was previously told. I just asked their opinion. What they told me about my ring made the most sense and was well supported by my prior experiences.Also, I could tell that they were being much more fair with me than the other jewelry shop- not just in price, but that was certainly part of it.They did a beautiful repair for my ring. They have gorgeous pieces in the store.I feel like I gained a truly knowledgeable resource by being their customer. And the fact that they were immediately down-to-earth is something I will remember and respect. And the skillful work is right on the heels of that.Next time Im in the market for jewelry, I will come here first.

Such a wonderful experience at Maloys. I brought in my Mothers vintage ring to have it repaired and reset and they couldnt have done a better job. Nina was a joy to work with and she knew exactly what I wanted. Its so well done and worth the price. It was even less than another place had estimated for me. Thank you Maloys!

I had my diamond eternity wedding band fixed here two separate times. (Im hard on my jewelry), and they perfectly matched and replaced two small diamonds on different occasions, and resized my ring. The work was beautiful. Their service was friendly, efficient, and good with communicating with me during the process. I will return for future repairs. Thanks for great service and work.

I stopped by today with a set budget for a birthday gift for my sister and they were wonderful. It wasnt my first time in Malloys and it wont be my last. Knowledgeable staff and so helpful spending the time with me it to pick out the perfect gift. Time and money was very well spent today, they even gift wrapped my selection and my sister loved it. Ive taken pearls there in the past to be restrung and have had amazing service every time. Shopping local and going vintage with estate jewelry is the only way to go.

Review №24

My fiancé did some research and found this place on google. We went in to look at possibly purchasing my ring there - which we did. They had a great selection in a range of prices/metals/stones and the customer service was excellent. When the ladies in the shop found out we were leaving town the following morning they offered to resize right away so we could leave with the ring! Definitely would recommend purchasing from Maloys!

We bought my wife’s wedding band here and had it welded with her engagement ring. They are some of the most kind, attentive sales people. They have remembered us since our first visit. They were able to get the rings welded rough after the wedding for a super reasonable price, and it was done while we waited.

We have been coming to Maloys since we found my engagement ring there 2 years ago. Everyone there always takes such good care of us and their prices are very reasonable. Ive been in several times to have my ring resized, which I feel self conscious about and on my last visit the gal at the counter was so sweet and made me feel better about having to upsize my ring (again). She also helped me get it resized short notice in time for Christmas. My ring always comes back so sparking. I wont go anywhere else for my jewelry needs. THANK YOU!

Review №28

I brought an inherited chain bracelet in for repair after one of the links broke. They told me since it was heavily worn that they couldnt guarantee the repair long-term, which was fine, but once I got the repaired bracelet back it broke within a couple hours! I called to tell them and they would only refund me half of what I had paid, even though the women on the phone told me they made a mistake taking the job at all. Really disappointing and I will not be returning, Id take your repairs somewhere else.

I was in town from Charlotte last week and shopped around some valuables I wanted to liquidate. Shannon gave the best offer and was very patient. Went back the next day and did my transaction, plus got a tremendous deal on a gorgeous vintage watch.Highly recommended.

I went in on Thursday with a broken ankle bracelet that is cheap in quality but rich in sentimental value and Nina fixed it in a minute and didnt charge me. It says a lot that a place selling such gorgeous pieces isnt haughty in the least. I have a couple of actually nice rings Ill need resized at some point, and Ill go to Maloys. Nina made my day. :)

Review №31

Very helpful with major and minor jewelry repairs. Glued and reset a cracked opal for me, being quite honest about its limited life expectancy. When the opal eventually died and I decided to replace it with a harder carnelian, the new stone had to be ground to fit the old setting. No problem.They have built special tools to remove particularly difficult watch backs and replace batteries. They appreciate old stuff, and I appreciate them.

I walked in to ask about getting my vintage, silver ring hammered back into shape (it got smushed and was too mangled to wear). The kind staff took my ring and reshaped it on the spot. It took less than 10 minutes and was free of charge! Im so happy to be able to wear my ring again, and highly recommend this shop.

Review №35

Stopped in to look at the antique settings, but there werent too many options that would fit the .5c diamond I inherited. We decided to get a quote for a custom engagement ring instead. The lady we spoke to was very helpful and pleasant to work with but not the actual designer/jeweler. We were given a few rough estimations and asked to narrow in closer to an actual price, but were told we couldnt have a final quote until after we had paid the design fee. I prefer to have a more specific quote with line-items called out such as price-per-gram for metal, design cost, casting fee, setting fee, etc. Overall the price seemed reasonable for the audience (NW Portland) and it looked like they were very talented craftsmen/craftswomen. The pieces were beautiful. We decided to go somewhere else that gave a more specific quote that came in around $1500 less.

Stopped in to get a cleaning on an antique diamond ring, assuming itd cost me $20-30. The service was complimentary and the ppl were more than happy to chat with us and show us some beautiful pieces.Definitely worth checking out if you like old gemstones and happy friendly ppl who sell them.

My fiance and I had an initial experience with a Malloys employee that was was not fantastic. However, the owner was extremely kind, exemplifying wonderful customer care, and rectified the situation by gifting the repairs to my fiances ring at no charge. I so appreciated the kindness and sensitivity as well as craftsmanship he demonstrated.

These people are rude and snooty. Evidently if you dont have something like the garish monstrosities they sell your jewelry is poor quality and they cant work on it. So we went to ABC, who managed it just fine- better than fine, in fact. They also treated us like human beings not of poor quality.

I felt completely dismissed and disrespected the entire time I was in there. I apparently look to young to have any money. Every moment I was there they made me feel like I wasnt worth their time. Every request I made was met with sighs and eye rolls. Ill never enter this shop again.
