"This is it. This place has to be it." Thats what I said after seeing all the reviews. After much disappointment in shopping the major diamond dealers of America, my boyfriend and I finally decided to google a few places that would be more our style, comfort and budget: Antiques. I was so excited when I found Gilt in my home city and even more thrilled when I saw their 5 star rating!! Out of many many reviews! As I sat there on my bed reading through one joyous review after another, I couldnt help but think: "This is it. This place has to be it." We scheduled the date to go shopping and went ONLY to Gilt that day. And within 20 minutes-I had my engagement ring bought and paid for! It was the very first ring I tried on and I am falling more and more in love with it every single day, if thats even possible!!! Its gorgeous. I cant wait to go back for the bands! Thank you, GILT for your very fine product, attention to quality and passion for what you do. You have made many a happy bride (and bride-to-be).

Definitely not what I expected. My (now) fiancee came here first to look at rings. They were pretty dismissive, rude, and distracted while helping him. I came later to look at rings and felt rushed. I vaguely knew what I wanted, and this might have conveyed that I wasnt really going to buy anything, but I expected to be helped along in the process and I did not receive that treatment. I thought that picking out a ring would be an exciting process but I didnt feel very valued as a customer here. I think a lot of people come into this store because it is on Pearl Street and try rings on for kicks and giggles, and perhaps that is why they were so unhelpful, but it kinda came off as pretentious and rude. Luckily, I went down the street to Antoinettes, and now I have the perfect ring on my finger.

Vintage jewelry experts! I learned so much on my trip in here. I am kind of a jewelry nerd and so for me to get such depth and examples of amazing work, I was impressed. It is not often that a visit to a store has me googling stuff for weeks after. Also, the quality of the pieces is upper end. What you see are the extremely nice works of the styles of that era. I saw plenty of lower quality versions while learning more. That means the price tags on the items in the shop are legit.

Recently I bought a 1940s rhinestone pin from Gilt for a friend who is a big fan of vintage jewelry. It was just the perfect gift. She was thrilled and I think she may now be a future customer of Gilt. Thank you ladies of Gilt. You helped me find the ideal item for her. I visited the shop once and had a positive experience just admiring your vintage jewelry. And then I went back and purchased that lovely 1940s pin with your help. Thank you so much!!!

We purchased our wedding bands here yesterday! There are so many beautiful pieces in the store and the sales associate we worked with was super helpful and not pushy at all. I took a while to decide what went best with my vintage engagement ring and luckily found a ring from a similar era. My fiancé tried on several band and his decision was also easy. I was glad that we could buy our bands in one place together. The prices were all pretty good as well.

Our first visit was exceptional, having been greeted warmly and feeling at ease to browse and discuss our needs, so we left with a good feeling and a better understanding of what we wanted. A week later, thinking highly of the place, we returned with an intention to buy two rings, but were greeted by a different employee who rushed us and made us feel unwelcome. This was highly off-putting and they lost our sale.

This boutique is fantastic if you love art, antiques, and jewelry. They have absolutely gorgeous pieces and a very knowledgeable staff. I could spend hours browsing their amazing cases. Im slightly jealous of the girls that work there because they get to spend so much time with gorgeous historical jewelry. Its a wonderful place to buy unique gifts.

Amazing store, classy, upscale yet friendly :) They have an amaziiinnnng selection of vintage jewelry, management and staff are amazingly knowledgeable. I would recommend this store in a heart beat, anyone who knows anything about vintage jewelry and quality of said jewelry knows this is the place to go. !

I have purchased pieces for myself from Gilt in the past and have never been unhappy. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly; I never felt pressured to purchase anything I didnt want to. I recently got engaged and couldnt be happier that my fiancé found my ring at Gilt! Its so beautiful and unique!

The ladies there were more than helpful to look around and find the exact piece I was looking for as a gift. I also had a ring repaired there and it was fast, cheap and quality work.
