Amazingness. Antoinette's is absolutely the best in town for antique jewelry, especially engagement/wedding rings. My fiancé and I spent hours with Antoinette and found the perfect ring for me!

The customer service was stellar. Antoinette herself educated us about old and new diamond cuts and was extremely sensitive about my nickel allergy (she made sure I only tried on platinum bands). Then I tried each one on about 78 times, and she showed me how to view the diamonds with a loupe.

Antoinette seemed truly passionate about what she does - you could tell she really wants people to find the jewelry that was meant for them. I'll definitely be back!

BEST EXPERIENCE!. This was the first shop my boyfriend and I went on our engagement ring search, I DID NOT HAVE TO GO ANYWHERE ELSE! Antoinette is wonderful, knowledgable, and so much fun! No matter what your budget, or previous jewerly experience, she is a doll. I tried on so many rings (shocked how many were available and so beautiful within my smallish budget) and had so much fun with her helping us! YOU WILL FIND SOMETHING THAT IS JUST FOR YOU! I did, as the next day, I left with a 1920s Art Deco ring ( and a perfectly sweet little band too)!!! Thank you Antoinette, can't wait to come back in and play!

Great choices and prices to choose from. Had my 10th wedding anniversay and wanted a ring that was unique. Antoinette was very friendly and helpfully in showing me the right ring for me. I ended up getting a ring that totally fit me size 3 1/2 isn't easy to find but I did. Even my husband was impressed with all the choices and thought my ring did have charm. I would recommend this place people have different styles in what they like and she has many to fit the person.

See Antoinette first.... Here's my story:

My fiance and I went to every antique / estate jewelry shop looking for a 1920's-30's ring. We tried Gilt, Medallion, Malloy's - you name it and I've been there. I can tell you honestly that nowhere in Portland did we find a better selection or more reasonable prices.

Antoinette is in Multnomah village in the back of an attached antique shop. Antoinette herself is unbelievably knowledgeable and helpful. When we decided on a ring, I had her put it on hold for me until I could come back with the cash, at which point she she promptly sent it to her specialist.

A ring that old should have taken a great deal more work / time to spruce up, but amazingly, Antoinette had the ring back to me within a week, so I was able to surprise my fiance at the perfect moment in her favorite restaurant in SE.

I can't say enough positive things about my experience with Antoinette and her tucked-away jewelry shop. She deals with integrity, timeliness, and an obvious passion and love for what she does - and I gather she spends a hell of a lot of time seeking out the perfect items from around the country to stock her collection.

If you're looking into estate jewelry as an option (which you should) Antoinette should be the first stop on your list.

Best quality service!. A friend of mine brought me to Antoinette's to get a feel of what sort of wedding ring shape I liked.

Located in Multonomah Village, I thought it was really neat that her shop was located in the back of a sort of gallery. She was so thorough and never made me feel rushed. I also liked that she could read my expressions; she knew if I wasn't feeling a certain type of ring. I would recommend her shop to anyone who wants to enjoy the process of looking for a fabulous wedding ring or other estate jewelry. You will not be disappointed!

Antoinette's Antique and Estate Jewelry. My fiancee and I were shopping for vintage/antique engagement rings because fo the amazing design and quality of the rings. When the first place we looked didn't have a very big selection we started searching for other places near us. After reading the many amazing reviews online we knew that this was the place to go and Antoinette did not disappoint. We were looking for two complimentary rings within a specific budget and we found them! Antoinette was very patient while we tried on many of her rings and gave us a lesson on the time periods and quality of each piece. She even directed us towards rings within our budget. I highly recommend her shop as a must stop for anyone searching for antique/vintage rings!

Great, great experience. My fiance and I went to Antoinette's store after checking out another lauded vintage jewelry shop in NW Portland. Really, there was no comparison. If you are looking for something beautiful and unique, go to Anoinette's. I found a ring that I can't stop looking at.

Very please. Really like the piece they set me up with for a special occasion. I was definitely a customer who required a little extra effort and they helped me out very graciously. Thanks.

Wonderful experience. My fiance and I had been looking for a special antique engagement ring for almost a year since I am very picky. We live in Seattle so at first we looked there but we were having no luck for months. Finally we made the trip down to Portland and visited all the antique jewelry shops in the city. I have to say Antoinette has a great selection of high quality items and really reasonably priced. She is knowledgeable, friendly, and lets you try on rings without pressure. We had a wonderful experience and are just so happy we finally found the ring of my dream!

Best jewelry experience ever. my girlfriend wanted an antique engagement ring with a special story. antoinette was the only jeweler in town that made me feel welcome despite not really having a knowledge about antique rings. I had a few pictures of what my girlfriend liked, and after about 30 seconds Antoinette pulled out the perfect ring. I had been shopping around for some time, so i can saw with some authority that her prices were about half what other stores were asking(and my diamond is a VS1). i would highly recommend going to Antoinette.
