What can I say about Ames Silversmithing, they are simply the best. The staff is helpful, knowledgeable and not pushy. This time I had Isaac, who was excellent but that is the case , whomever you have. Jewelry is high end , they can walk you through so that you get exactly what you are looking for. Highly recommend
