“I visited this charming Hillsborough store yesterday and asked if they wouldn't mind measuring my index finger as I needed to check my size for a special order from another store. Not only did they help with that, but they also offered guidance and wrote down their advice and observations for me to pass on to the ring maker for me to pass on. Please bear in mind that they knew I wasn't buying anything from them but still went above and beyond to do the utmost kindness and help.
Their own items are lovely, and although we were slightly short on time, we plan to visit again soon to make some purchases. The jewelry is beautiful, and the care taken reflects why supporting local businesses like this is so important.”
“Carlisle & Linny is my go-to shop whenever I’m looking for gifts for the special people in my life. The inventory is fabulous, represents many decades, and changes frequently, so I never leave empty-handed no matter who I’m shopping for. The owner, Lindsley, and the shop manager, Tam, are both friendly, knowledgeable, and very patient about showing me things in the cases, too. This little shop is truly a treasure and worth my trip to downtown Hillsborough all by itself!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the experience of restyling my wedding ring at Melissa Designer Jewelry. Melissa was able to take a piece that I love/cherish and transform it into something even more breathtaking. The craftsmanship is absolutely stunning and great care was taken to preserve the original integrity of the ring while introducing a fresh elegance that aligns with my current style and taste. If you’re considering restyling a cherished piece, or simply looking for ideas, I recommend visiting Melissa Designer Jewelry!”
