“I got my septum pierced two days ago, and yesterday one of the balls on the end of my horse shoe ring fell off. I was devastated because I was so excited to show all of my friends, and no replacement ball would get here in time. We called Empire and the man that picked up (I’m so sorry I didn’t get his name) told us we could come by real quick and pick them up. He said he’d tape them to the door because they’re closing soon and he wouldn’t charge us anything. I’m so so grateful for his generosity, seriously a life saver.”
“I had a wonderful experience being tattooed by Kimber at the Depot St. location. My tattoo was so quick and turned out beautiful. Kimber made the experience very comfortable and enjoyable. I will absolutely be returning for future tattoos.”

The owners are a great team in providing high quality jewels, knowledge,creativity and price.I went into Karat Patch with what to me seemed like a pickle, but I was given multiple options that would best fit my piece of Jewelry. After some meetings and ideas, the piece came back absolutely stunning, and faster than I anticipated. I am 110% satisfied.”
“My now Fiancé (!!!) and I worked with Jimmy to design my engagement ring and it is the ring of my dreams! We had a family diamond we wanted to use and I had an idea of the setting I wanted but Jimmy made it all come to life. He took his time with us, asked so many questions we hadn’t thought of and helped us determine that a custom route was the way to go. All of his communication was prompt, professional and we could tell he genuinely wanted to create something special for us. Jimmy worked within our budget, our custom setting was affordable and the craftsmanship is out of this world. We just got engaged this weekend and I can’t stop staring at this beautiful ring. Thank you Jimmy for making my dreams come true. We will definitely be coming back for our bands. Highly recommend for a first class experience!”

Cameron went above and beyond with her attentiveness and attention to detail to create a ring my partner and I both love.

Highly recommend them for beautiful, unique craftsmanship and warm, consistent customer service.”

“Don't miss this special little place! Their name says it all...a nonprofit shop that features handmade products made from various villages in multiple countries. Quality and reasonably priced with much attention to detail. It's worth stopping in to browse even if you aren't in the buying mood. Great spot to find a unique gift for someone. Really appreciate that each item has a tag that shares details about the "making" of product. Fun, inviting staff. While they do carry products for children, it might be a bit challenging to shop with children due to the size of shop and various displays. I love that our purchases contribute to making a positive impact and serve as a reminder of a fun day in Ashville.”

The aesthetics, the lovely creak of the floors, the beauty, quality, and curation of their high quality items make it so so special. But above all, the kindness and helpful spirit of all of the staff are what set it apart. My go-to place for special gifts (for myself and others) at an affordable price point!

I sent Emma pictures of the mountains and they turned out so beautiful! I also got a necklace for the wedding with a bird and a heart, a theme that holds a special significance to me. I am so thankful to have these pieces of art to wear. They are truly beautiful and meaningful.”

“A True Gem at Zales – Brandon Rice Saved My Ring and Restored My Faith
After a heartbreaking experience with my 20-year-old channel-set engagement ring being damaged during a resizing, I had nearly given up hope. Multiple repair attempts by another Zales location left it worse each time, and I was devastated. In a final attempt to salvage it, I visited the Zales Outlet in Asheville, NC, in January 2025, and that’s when I met Brandon Rice.
From the moment I walked in, Brandon treated my situation with empathy, urgency, and professionalism. He immediately recognized the issue with the setting and took it upon himself to make it right. Over the next seven months, Brandon worked tirelessly, coordinating multiple repair attempts, advocating on my behalf, and ultimately sending the ring to an external specialist when it became clear the damage was too advanced.
What truly sets Brandon apart is his unwavering dedication. He understood how much this ring meant to me and refused to settle for anything less than perfect. When repairs proved impossible, he went above and beyond, working with upper management to have my original stones removed and recast into a brand-new setting that’s identical to the original. The result? My beloved ring is as beautiful as the day I received it, and the only cost to me was a new lifetime warranty.
Brandon didn’t just fix a ring. He restored a beloved treasure and renewed my trust in Zales. His compassion, persistence, and commitment to excellence are rare and deeply appreciated. If you ever need help with your jewelry, Brandon Rice is the person you want in your corner. He is an absolute credit to Zales and a shining example of what true customer service looks like.
Thank you, Brandon. You are a rock star in every sense of the word.”
“I waited 13 years to get a dragon tattoo!! What I imagined and what Travis created took this tattoo to a whole nother world!! Thank you Travis for an amazing peace of art work that I will wear with honors!”
“Absolutely amazing. So professional and helpful. It’s so obvious that this shop exists to do what they love, not make a quick buck. I have a HUGE phobia of needles but I felt totally calm and safe. I live 4 hours away but would happily drive back here if I ever decided to get another piercing.”
