It is a wise choice to do your business HERE! If you want to know the reasons why you shouldn’t take it “ellswhere” you can read my other review. Mr. David and Mrs. Denise went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations. I came here to sell a gold ring at scrap price. Upon arrival the counter was busy so I browsed and found some very interesting and cool pieces. I also saw a pocket watch that was in my price range. But only if I could make the deal. While browsing Mrs. Denise went out of her way to kindly offer a stool for me to put my water jug on.(stay hydrated) So when it was my turn at the counter I put on a fresh pair of my favorite blue nitrile gloves and Mr. David and I introduced ourselves. I showed him my ring and he promptly weighed it and gave me a price $110. I was just offered $25 “Ellswhere”(true story). So I was already relieved and happy. I asked him why not more for around 4 grams of 14k and he said due to refining fees and I understood. I then asked about the pocket watch he had in his case. He brought it out and showed it to me. This is where it gets better. And it gets even better too. He showed me it was running and the case front latch worked and back opened (18k case) I looked it over with my loupe I have around my neck and at that point I noticed he wore one also around his neck. I was pleasantly surprised as this may be more common than I think but I learned it from watching videos of Mr. John Buckley buy and sell watches and it made the experience even better. I wanted the watch so I offered Mr. David 3 more pieces for me to own it. He accepted and he also gave me $50. I was very pleased and a Mazal turned to a Mazalito, Baby! I said goodbye and left knowing I made a wise business decision with great people. I had the pocket watch and one more ring from my collection. But then I got a message. A woman messaged me asking to buy one of the rings that I just sold to Mr. David. She was asking to buy the $500 ring for $150 but she said please and I was barely out the doorway so of course I went back inside to tell Mr. David. I told him and he offered me the ring back, free, no question! He was going to just let me sell it to her! So I declined but I told him instead I’ll give him another piece if he can sell her the ring for $150 if she stopped by. He asked if I was sure and after reassuring him that I was very happy with our deal and I want to do business in the future he agreed. Mazal! Pyramid studios is a the place to go for your jewelry and repairs in Ellsworth and I highly recommend Mr. David and Mrs. Denise. The experience was worth more than gold.Thank you for reading. Mazal and God bless. & enjoy this...
Read moreI don't know how I've lived so close to this place and never been in. I had a delightful experience. There's a nice view of the river and the lighting makes everything feel very welcoming. The shop has a veritable trove of beautiful and interesting pieces, including items made from local stones. The customer service was excellent and the folks were knowledgeable. Also, to note: everyone was wearing masks. It feels good to know that safety is something this studio considers. They had a decent selection of chains on hand-- I was just shopping for a simple one and the person I worked with took me right to what I needed. Overall, I plan to buy from this shop for gifting (myself and others) again. Tourists: this is also worth a stop for their...
Read moreI love their taste in jewelry and have gotten all my pieces from Pyramid Studios since moving to Maine. Also, after a finger injury, they cut my wedding rings off with ease and genuine care for a small fee... when I had almost gone to the ER and spent a thousand dollars for the same thing. Thankfully we called and they told us to come right in and that my finger would thank me! Well it did and I thank...
