“I haven’t felt a warm vibe in every shop on Piedmont and vintage stores can be kind of snobby sometimes but I’m happy to say that that frigidaire environment has NOT been my experience at Sunshine Prophecy. The vibe is super warm and inviting; There is ALWAYS good music playing; The employees there are always very patient with any of my (often MANY haha) questions; — AND I’ve never felt pressure to buy anything if I wasn’t ready. — That is especially important to me bc in order to budget I purposely do LONG leads on items I’m interested in. I might stop in once or twice and ask questions/do price checks before I finally treat myself and they always treat me like a paid customer. Clothes, jewelry, purses are cute. LOVE their witchy candles, herbs, and TAROT CARDS. It seems like the owner of this store had more of a “creative calling ” then just a bottom line in starting this business.”
“My fiancee and I worked with Pepper to select an engagement ring and she was so patient, knowledgeable, and lovely to work with! I didn’t come in with any idea what my ideal ring might be, and Pepper had great intuition and was very quick to pick up on my taste. Pave had such an amazing and unique selection and I’m so happy with the ring I got from them!”
“I had Sam and his team make an engagement ring earlier this year. I was introduced to him by a friend who also had their ring made by Sam. From the very first meeting to receiving the finished product, we enjoyed every interaction with him. He has an amazing story, personal history, and a fantastic shop and team. Sam did an incredible job sourcing a very particular stone we were searching for and was super helpful in guiding us through the design choices. In the end, we got a beautiful stone and an elegant setting with a hidden halo. We highly recommend working with Sam. Next up, we will be getting our wedding bands from him!”

1038 University Ave, Berkeley“SIYA is a gem! This place isn’t comparable to any other Indian clothes shopping experience I’ve had. Found out about them from a family member who always has the best outfits. It’s my go to spot now. Their selection is fantastic, offering a wide range of high-quality options for all occasions. The owner is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and Sonu is super helpful—both really go out of their way to style you for the events you're shopping for. I was able to get several outfits for my brother's wedding and my best friend's wedding within a day, and every piece was unique and beautiful. They even tailored everything, and the fit was perfect. One blouse needed to be fixed again and they were so kind and quick about it. They truly care that their clients are well taken care of. The prices reflect the quality you’re getting—well worth it! I also found gorgeous matching jewelry to complete my looks that the owner hand selected and was patient while I figured out what I liked best. My husband got three outfits and couldn’t be more excited to have high-quality Indian clothes, from a hassle free, fast, and easy shopping experience. Highly recommend SIYA for anyone looking for stunning Indian fashion with top-notch service!”
“This is strictly a repair place, not a jewelry store, in a strip mall that features massage parlors. Don't be put off by the unprepossessing atmosphere. John is a master craftsman who knows his business. I had a saga with an antique garnet and diamond ring that had prongs sticking up. First I took it to Pavé which had repaired earrings for me for $35. As I noted in an earlier review, they would charge $675 to repair the prongs, and recommended removing the garnet for another $325. That was about the price of the ring when I bought it, so I decided against letting them repair it. I took it to Kim's Watches and Jewelry Repair, where I had had a bracelet untangled for only $8. Mr. Kim didn't replace the prongs, but he bended them, for $40. I thought the ring was fine but the prongs began sticking up again. Mr. Kim again worked on the ring, and charged me nothing. But I knew the problem wasn't solved. When I saw the positive reviews for Underhill Studio, I took the ring to John. He carefully examined the ring and showed me photographs. Virtually all the prongs needed replacement, but not the center garnet. It took two visits, but he replaced all of them for $185. The ring looks great and I think the problem is finally solved. If you want an upscale jewelry store, Pavé is fine. If you want an expert who charges a fair price, try Underhill.”
“I love the Stone Room! It has a great selection of crystals and stones at very fair prices. They also have a fantastic assortment of gemstone beads. Tenzin is always delightful and knowledgeable to work with. I have picked up some great stones here, and I know they are sourced in the best way possible via Tashi's travels and direct relationships with suppliers in each country. Most crystal stores that buy from gem shows and have no idea where their products are coming from, so I feel far better about buying from The Stone Room.”
“Okay so let's start out with it Was our anniversary...So our Vibes brought us here for spiritual Brunch!We were headed elsewhere for brunch ended up here and feed our souls for about 2 hours or more. Lost track of time as if the moment we walked through the threshold it paused the world around us all I heard was ancestral words calming my entire being.(Was it the soundtrack from dancing with wolves ...j.k j.k lol he did have a dope native American and Cuban drums and some flute Playlist going)Yo I can't make this stuff up.I only review places I really like,places I really vibe with. So it was pretty fitting that we walked into theSTONE ROOM 2 ...More like Magical Bazaar! You can turn and look a MILLION different ways inside this little Bodega and still miss something huge and Out Of This World or be ready to pay and be like yup I missed all these. So be ready to spend a couple mins or hours or days exploring this MAGICAL place¡ ? ✨️We got each other some things¡”
“Great items and great pricing. Wish they had a larger selection of some items for more choices but we were still able to find items we were looking for at a stellar price!”

605 Bridgeway, Sausalito“Beautiful shop... My friends and I stopped in, and I found a beautiful sterling silver ring with a light blue stone. The owner offered great customer service and was very welcoming. A couple weeks later one of the stones fell out. I sent it back and he called me personally and then offered to replace it at no charge. Love that he offered and paid for shipping too. So nice to experience customer service at this level! Will definitely go back to shop and highly recommend this shop. Thank you again!!!”

He searched his whole store and found me these beautifully designed sets of Moroccan leather pouf ottomans. I highly recommend his store for your decor needs for your home, office or any place. Check out his unique decor, furnitures, and items.”
“Having Delano provide Our Business with such fine materials and containers, gorgeous healthy blooming plants, cute, traditional basket gardens, trendy new 'Instagram' tropicals and lush full green plants keeps our customers happy and returning for more. Side by side, my customers will choose Delano plants over their competitors. Blooming plants are beautiful Now, today for the event I need them for...not waiting for them to be showy for later when the event is over. And then my customers tell me that their plant is still happy and thriving. Great Customer Service means I am having a pleasant intelligent knowledgeable staff member handle my needs, even when it's early morning.

3980 Piedmont Ave, Oakland“We love Yan and we love Lireille! Yan was so lovely to work with from day one - she is knowledgeable, patient, humorous and has a knack for understanding your vision completely (even if you're still working through the details)! She also helped us with many culturally relevant considerations that we deeply appreciated. Designing our custom engagement rings, one of which we used an heirloom jewel for, was such a straightforward and simple process and we could not be more happy with the results. Go with Lireille, you won't regret it!”
“I had some gold coins that I needed to sell but I had some trepidation as I had never done that before. I asked some basic questions via email and Monique promptly responded with the information that I needed. Further web research reassured me about the business professionalism, fairness and honesty. I like that they are a long term family business. I arranged an appointment, brought in my coins and was admitted to the inner sanctum. All the interactions were very friendly and efficient, and the vibe felt very wholesome and down to Earth. The price they paid was very reasonable and I walked out in a short time with a sizeable check in my pocket.”
“My necklace repair was done for free(clasp problem). I did not have cash (it costed $2.00) but she waived the cost and just told me to drop it off when I’m in the area again. Her shop was tucked in behind other stores but well worth the trip. The jewelry is beautiful and stylish. Such a great find!”
“This is the third time I’ve taking a fabrication workshop like this jewelry tutorial. It was a fabulous session broken down into manageable chunks. Peter Ostwald made the class enjoyable and is a master of helpful feedback. He’s the kind of teacher who listens and reinforces good technique by catching the moments you have good angles or demonstrating only the next step that you need without criticism. It was so much fun!!!!”
“Beautiful jewelry and even lovelier service! The nice lady who assisted me was very friendly and helpful. A lot of the jewelry is handmade by the owner! I think I will be making this one of my regular stops on Solano ;)”

Their pierces are impeccably made, and the one time I snapped a necklace they fixed it for me!”
