Baleen - Seattle (WA)

Kelly I visited this store to buy some jewelry. The designs looked beautiful in the photos, but in real life, the jewelry felt cheap and lacked the refined finishing I was hoping for. The materials didn’t seem durable, and after just a few wears, the piece started to tarnish. I honestly don’t think I’ll ever come back again. Extremely disappointed.

Jolene Baijot The TJ Maxx offers a good selection of jewelry and purses. This is a solid local cheap option for accessories.

Tahlkee6970 I have purchased 6 items from earrings to necklaces. Each piece has been well done and held up with continues wear. I constantly receive compliments on each piece and hope to grow my collection!

Dave Campbell It was a cold and foggy morning in Walla Walla and I was early, standing outside Falkenbergs in the grubby chill! Instead of staring at the stupid customer who arrived too early, three amiable women waved me in, and while finishing their pre-opening chores, engaged me in conversation, and soon I was working with Shira; I had a ring to be appraised for value and possible purchase and she was of inestimable help; I had to return a week later for a finalization of their purchase, and again, a clerk named Helen was most amiable and worked closely with me to assure satisfaction. I dont understand the disgruntled reviews elsewhere, and would suspect some of these folks brought their attitude with them. Thanks Falkenbergs!

K M The owner, Gloria, is so warm, down to earth, and personable. I purchased a gorgeous pair of Emerald earrings and had my wedding set sized and soldered with her. Her pieces are all heirloom-worthy and stunning; I highly recommend both locals and tourists check her store out! Great location near restaurants too.

Justin Hinh When I arrived at noon on a Thursday, this modern-looking store was crowded; 11 customers were waiting on two busy employees. I had to wait 20 minutes to check out, but I was surprised by what I found: an entire wall covered with Dansco and Vintage Whitman Bookshelf albums and folders. There were over 50 vintage Whitman bookshelf albums, hundreds of Whitman folders, and a shelf full of Danscos. I even found a custom Dansco album! All the customers were older, and I got the impression that the shop acquires many full albums from older collectors selling their coins. Since not many customers come in to buy albums, the shop has accumulated a ton of albums and folders. This place is a must-stop for coin album collectors.

P L Easily one of the we best in the biz. I went to 4 or 5 other jewelers and watchmakers who couldnt handle the job or quoted me ridiculous rates and turnaround times. Eric took care of it in literally 10 minutes, did a perfect job, and was incredibly generous with the costs. Please come here before others, probably save some time and money.

Gail R I have had several repairs performed. I find the prices are reasonable and the store owners customer service skills to be excellent.

Kathleen OReilly I just received shipment of a custom made Ming China double-sided pendant from Andi Clarke Jewelry and couldnt be more thrilled! Andi was very patient answering my questions with prompt responses and great communication. She shared the history of the pottery shard, sent photos so I could choose my piece from her collection, and explained how various design elements could impact the cost. I love the finished piece and know I will enjoy wearing it for years to come. I would trust Andi with any custom design, be it for a special beach found piece of sea glass, pebble or shard as well as a sentimental piece of china. She has a gift for creating beautifully framed wearable treasures with well-crafted silversmithing accents. This is the second piece Ive bought from Andi, the other being an Oahu pendant listed on her website, and Im equally pleased with both. The pieces arrived carefully and beautifully packaged with a note detailing their origins. I cant recommend her business highly enough and plan to purchase more pieces from Andi in the future!
