Review №1

Shibumi Gallery is an oasis of beauty and calm. Frankly I just stop in sometimes just to breathe it in. I am particular and work in design but Im happy to sign trust over to April and each of her staff.I have had several custom pieces made and had pieces Ive already owned re-worked. We will discuss the ideas but when it comes to seeing the work in progress or a wax, I feel completely comfortable just saying, Go ahead, do what you think, I trust you. Im always happy and the experience is a complete pleasure.Shibumi makes their own custom jewelry and carries a wide body of work from other artists. They always have beautiful artwork, sculpture and complimentary clothing.There is no place like Shibumi. Shibumi is what wine is to bread - a great pleasure in life.

Beautiful work, and such a wide range! This is a rare place; the sales staff are all jewelers, so they were able to answer every question I had and seemed happy to do so. Gorgeous treasures, lots of knowledge, and genuinely kind people made my experiences at Shibumi Gallery impossible to forget. I cant recommended them enough!

Beautiful environment and professional staff. They have a solid understanding of processes and materials, as most of the staff are makers themselves. Great selection of wedding bands, rings, and beyond that break from the classic mold of the mainstream jewelry aesthetic. Many well established artists and styles of work to chose from including a trove of April Higashis designs. Custom projects are welcomed and the trade-in value for gold and other precious metals is higher for the client than any other jeweler from my experience. Great place to go for locally and internationally handcrafted jewelry.

April Higashi is a brilliant jeweler,curator, and all round amazing human. I love her beautiful gems, but none of them are as beautiful as her heart and spirit. Best place to find your favorite piece of jewelry! She will also reimagine you’re old pieces, or design things for you. Really spectacular choice work!

I went here to get an inscribed ring resized. The people here were very helpful and friendly. My ring fits perfectly now, looks just like new, and no longer falls off my hand.
