410 Main St, Highlands“This is a family owned business. They are very knowledgeable about the gems and they make you feel welcomed as soon as you step in the door! This is my birthstone from the garnet I panned for.”
“Laurel was amazing to meet + even more amazing to purchase with. She's a no-pressure sales woman with a heart of gold. She's the real deal! I was able to purchase my dream bag with her, and I will be back to buy many more items for friends and family.”
“Excellent! Claudia and Joe are wonderful. The selection of new and estate jewelry is huge. The art glass is amazing. A must stop and shop for anyone visiting Highlands!”

349 Main St, Highlands“Thank you for being open today because we were tourists on a Wednesday and many stores were understandably closed! Beautiful store with tons of cool stuff to look at.”
“Absolutely the best shop in Highlands for high-end antiques and silver. Been here for over forty years. Friendly people, reasonably priced and fun just to browse and shop. They've provided most of our family silver through three generations. Can't recommend them too highly.”

201 S 4th St, Highlands“I just left Highlands Gem ShopOn my first visit to Highlands, NC not only was the weather spectacular for this South Florida girl, but I came across a “gem” of a shop.This shop had so many cool and different things. From the beautiful jewelry to the eclectic selection of gift items to the interesting minerals in the back. I wasn’t looking for anything in particular but I came away with a special memento from one of the lovely local artisans in the shop. Thanks for adding a little extra “sparkle” to my trip to Highlands!”

“LorieJean Duffy was locking up her store several days ago as we explored the town. We struck up a brief conversation explaining that we were on an anniversary/birthday trip. She suggested that we come back for a special surprise for our almost 11yo daughter. Of course my kid wouldn't let us forget, so after dinner last night, we went over to the Gold-n-Clipper as promised. LorieJean remembered us and gifted my daughter with her birthstone bracelet. Such a sweet gesture. Her kindness and hospitality knows no bounds because we stayed a while perusing the store and all the beautiful items they had for sale. We purchased a beautiful poncho, earrings and a turquoise jewelry set and left feeling like we were family. It's folks like LoriJeann who make me want to retire and move to Highlands, NC. The store has fine jewelry, precious stones and designer fashion, gold and silver, coins and bouillon galore. A must visit for any tourists looking for quality, affordable gifts for loved ones back home. Will be back if just to love on our new favorite Highlander! ??”
