PHOTO TOUR OF VALLEY JEWELERS

Teresa and Jim invite you to get to know us better by taking this tour of snapshots ,
which show the amenities of the shop, the types of items we sell,
as well as a few specific examples of our merchandise.

(Please note--we are closed Sundays, Mondays and Holidays)



showfloor1 showfloor2























The shop is brightly lit and very spacious for wheelchair access




estate case


We have one showcase dedicated to previously enjoyed estate and antique jewelry

Comfortable guest chairs (and magazines) for
companions just "along for the ride"










toybox

case1

case2

Showing a couple of showcases filled with our gold jewelry.
Please note that most of the gold jewelry items we sell are "one of a kind" or very limited production.



gemstones1

gemstones2

We have one of the largest (if not the largest) loose colored gemstone inventories in the area,
with literally thousands of stones in stock.




Please note that we change watch batteries (most are $8--all are $12 or less)

If you bring in more than one watch needing batteries, we discount each battery by $1.

We also have replacement watch bands, ranging in price from $9 (rubber) to $25 (plush leather)
Most watch band adjustments are $10


silver

With the recent huge gold price increase, we have started to carry more silver items in our inventory



silver pendants

We have also begun mounting some larger gemstones in silver...



tes corner

This is Teresa's Corner, with Spiritual, Self-Help and Holistic books, as well as healing crystals and crystal jewelry.



used books

We have decided to end Jim's on-line used book sales and offer them to our store customers at 1/3 or less of the original cover price.
We will let you choose a free book with a jewelry purchase of $100 or more.
(Exceptions are scarce and/or rare books and some first editions located at the rear of the store).



laser welder vacuum caster
At Valley Jewelers, we do all repairs in house (with the exceptions of stone inlay and very small stone pave and flush setting, for which we have no tooling),
including soldering, welding, bead and pearl restringing, and precision gold casting using our vacuum caster (right).

A few years ago we purchased a laser welder (left), which now enables Jim to do many precision repairs on
silver, gold and platinum jewelry--previously impossible without first removing heat-sensitive gemstones.

In addition, most small chains can now be fixed without leaving a hard spot (due to solder repair) in the middle.











pops rocks

Our display of minerals was collected by, and inherited from, Jim's father.
These items are for viewing only, and not for sale.



coral1

coral2

Jim's father was a Pacific Coast commercial fisherman for many years, and occasionally raised a coral specimen in his nets between 1959 and 1972.
Again, these items are only for viewing and not for sale.
