The sales person gave me a full rundown about how the demasque process is done and what quantifies a simple design versus a complex one. Highly recommend as both educational and beautiful pieces - much nicer than the machine done pieces around the city, worth every penny. Pendants were a bit too large for me (I think that my age group prefers smaller pieces) but I loved the earrings and the bracelets are beautiful.

This place is one of my most favorite purchases in a long time. I bought several earrings as gifts. My friend also bought a mini handcrafted sword as a gift for her son. It was much easier to carry back that the full size swords that Toledo is known for lol. This shop is owned by a lovely husband and wife. The husband handcrafts all the pieces as seen in the pictures. He uses 24 carat gold string for the gold pieces and sterling silver for the silver ones. I'm hoping my review will send more tourists their way. The shop is somewhat hidden and there is a lot of inventory looking for a good home. This place is truly a wonderful find!

I have been returned to this shop serval times and every piece I have bought is an handmade "Art". Love my collection soooo much.
Julián,the owner, and the nice lady Ana[not sure if I spell her name correctly ] are super nice and helpful. Explained clearly and willing to help you to choose your right piece.
Always ask Julián for recommandation if you need a very special piece😊😊

My visit to the shop started week. I appreciated leaning about the process of making the jewelry. When I decided on a pair, the salesman told me they were too young for me and that I looked like a girl playing dress up. He them insisted that I try on a pair that he thought was more mature (and we're more expensive). I hadn't picked those initially because I know what I like and what looks good on me. I tried them on to appease him and, of course, hated them. When I told him I wanted the pair that I had picked out, he gave me an extreme sigh of disappointment as if he couldn't believe my bad taste. I was happy to pay for these handcrafted earrings instead of the cheaper ones, but left feeling insulted.

My husband and I found this shop yesterday and met Julian who works with Simon who is now retired as I understand. I feel I love with a hand made braclet by Simon and made the purchase for €640.00. While the braclet is magnificent and we do have a receipt and guarantee that it is 24ct gold thread etc there was no Certificate to Authenticate it. I am concerned about this with regard to provenance and insurance. I asked why Simon or his workshop had not stamped it in some way, but Julian advised that none of the artisans do this when they made Damascene. Do you know anything about this. Many thanks.

You can easily get it appraised to support it when back at home. I was at this shop in November and watched Simon work. He's amazing. I adore my earrings
