Based on other reviews I stopped by this shop to see if I could purchase gifts from my wife and daughter. I met Ashley who was so very helpful; taking me about the store and helping me to understand the types of materials and the various colored patterns. What I read from other reviews is very true, the store assistants are there to help. What a truly interesting and beautiful selection of items to choose from. Thank you Ashley.

At the start of the Buchanan street where it meets Argyle Street and St Enoch Square, is the historic Argyll Arcade, which opened in 1827 with sixty-three shops and is now the oldest Victorian shopping centre in Britain. Brilliant stylish Victorian Arcade with numerous jewelry and watch shops covering the whole spectrum of watches and jewelry. It is usually quiet and has a really good selection of jewelry stores to suit all budgets. Fantastic surroundings, has charm. Best place for diamonds and watches in Glasgow, so if you need them....If not, it's worth going and watching too.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 377 reviews
Hundreds of carved figures and pieces of old scrap perform an incredible choreography to haunting music and synchronised light, telling the funny and tragic stories of the human spirit as it struggles against the relentless circles of life and death. Audiences in many countries have been fascinated by its magic. In Glasgow it has gained a reputation as one of the city’s hidden treasures. Very gripping theatre. - The Times Unforgettable experience. - The Herald An icon-painter for our times. - Scotsman For SEASONAL TIMETABLE OF SHOWS please visit our website. Special / group shows out-with the opening hours can also be booked via the website. For ticket prices and TO BOOK TICKETS please visit our website. Advance booking is highly recommended.

A truly unforgettable cultural experience: the pieces are rich with symbolism and the accompaniment of music, lights and movement turned it into a performance that was both touching and entertaining. The gallery manager was enthusiastic and informative in his explanations on the art pieces; and he was attentive and professional in regards to all the measures put in place for Covid-19 safety. I would definitely recommend Sharmanka to anyone looking for a cultural experience in Glasgow!

Came here for the opening night of the Oscar Marzaroli, was left to stroll around the exhibition at my own pace, lots of people but that added to the buzz about the exhibition, was able to take photos of the photos and nobody batted an eyelid, a little bar open with Drygate cans, was able to sit by the window and just watch people enjoying looking at the exhibition. Accessibility good, and disabled toilets nearby and clean. A great arts building, housing a unique Russian dining experience, well priced shop too where postcards and prints of the ivonic photos were available. I will definitely visit again to see other exhibitions. Thoroughly recommend visiting the Sharmanka Kinetic Theatre in the same building, unlike anything you will have ever seen or experienced!

High quality shop with superb customer care. The staff are not staff like Next or H&M, they know their products and can 'Size' you at a glance. With the trend now for not putting real sizes on anything (36 inch waist, etc), the staff know what a Medium or Large is in each of their products. IE, a large in one is actually a medium in another. Super shop , well worth a visit. They are best gentleman's outfitters in Livwrpool
