“It is a wise choice to do your business HERE!
If you want to know the reasons why you shouldn’t take it “ellswhere” you can read my other review. Mr. David and Mrs. Denise went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations. I came here to sell a gold ring at scrap price. Upon arrival the counter was busy so I browsed and found some very interesting and cool pieces. I also saw a pocket watch that was in my price range. But only if I could make the deal. While browsing Mrs. Denise went out of her way to kindly offer a stool for me to put my water jug on.(stay hydrated) So when it was my turn at the counter I put on a fresh pair of my favorite blue nitrile gloves and Mr. David and I introduced ourselves. I showed him my ring and he promptly weighed it and gave me a price $110. I was just offered $25 “Ellswhere”(true story). So I was already relieved and happy. I asked him why not more for around 4 grams of 14k and he said due to refining fees and I understood. I then asked about the pocket watch he had in his case. He brought it out and showed it to me. This is where it gets better. And it gets even better too. He showed me it was running and the case front latch worked and back opened (18k case) I looked it over with my loupe I have around my neck and at that point I noticed he wore one also around his neck. I was pleasantly surprised as this may be more common than I think but I learned it from watching videos of Mr. John Buckley buy and sell watches and it made the experience even better. I wanted the watch so I offered Mr. David 3 more pieces for me to own it. He accepted and he also gave me $50. I was very pleased and a Mazal turned to a Mazalito, Baby! I said goodbye and left knowing I made a wise business decision with great people. I had the pocket watch and one more ring from my collection. But then I got a message. A woman messaged me asking to buy one of the rings that I just sold to Mr. David. She was asking to buy the $500 ring for $150 but she said please and I was barely out the doorway so of course I went back inside to tell Mr. David. I told him and he offered me the ring back, free, no question! He was going to just let me sell it to her! So I declined but I told him instead I’ll give him another piece if he can sell her the ring for $150 if she stopped by. He asked if I was sure and after reassuring him that I was very happy with our deal and I want to do business in the future he agreed. Mazal! Pyramid studios is a the place to go for your jewelry and repairs in Ellsworth and I highly recommend Mr. David and Mrs. Denise. The experience was worth more than gold.Thank you for reading. Mazal and God bless. & enjoy this evening’s sunset”
“I've been a dedicated customer for over a decade. Peter and Leesa are not only the kindest people you'll ever meet but they reign supreme in custom creations! It's rare to find master jewelers especially in a small city in the middle of Maine. No one can hold a candle to them.
If you aren't interested in creating your own custom project they have a huge selection of their hand crafted items in-house that range from simplistic sea-glass to highly ornamental pieces you can walk in and walk out with. Their precious and semi-precious gemstone collection is seriously impressive too!
They can also take your own previously loved jewelry and turn it into something new! There's nothing they can't do. A true asset to the area. 5stars!”
“I walked in this shop at the end of meandering down Ellsworth’s main street and I was pretty disappointed. I went in for more of the “art” part of the “rock and art” title and other than some copied prints in the back there wasn’t much art. All of the pots in the front of the shop still had the “made in china” stickers on the bottom and it kinda took the shop local feeling out of things. Also the person behind the desk was on their phone the whole time I walked around and didn’t even greet me when I came in. Positives of this shop: they had a huge selection of clever greeting cards and if you’re in it for crystals then there are pretty of options here.”
“Absolutely love this shop! One of the best on the strip! Awesome gifts and gorgeous clothes! Staff was so friendly and helpful! Looove the mushroom clothes and decor??”
“Friendly, knowledgeable, and great listeners. Had a great experience after not buying jewelry for decades. Will go back to get a piece repaired. Highly recommend.”
