    If I could give Shorelines 6 stars I would! This is my second review of this gallery but my most recent experience prompted another review.

    It was my friends birthday on Sunday and of course I procrastinated on the gift! As I was thinking about what I could send her I remembered I had seen the perfect gift for her at Shorelines. I didn't really have time to go downtown and get it myself that particular Friday and didn't want to procrastinate any more...so I just gave the gallery a call. Sara was sooooo friendly and helpful. I explained my last minute situation and she was more than happy to help! Not only was I was able to purchase the gift over the phone, Sara wrapped it, included a card and shipped it to my friend for me.

    It was so nice to have such great service and care! When my friend received my gift she posted this on my Facebook wall "THANK YOU! You and Sara Mueller are too funny! I love that you sent me my birthday present to work! You should have seen me scratching my head wondering what the hell I ordered that I sent to work! I love it! It is so me and I cant wait to find it a home in our house. My dad is going to be super jealous! Thank you for a wonderful surprise it made my day and I love that its from the shoreline gallery. Truly a unique gift I appreciate it!"

    Not only did Shorelines make my day by being so wonderful and accommodating, when I was the one who waited until the last minute, but they also made my friends day as well! You cant get better than that!!!

    BEAUTIFUL jewelry here!!! Great place to find that special something for  a great gift or to treat yourself to something beautiful.  Prices are reasonable. Service was phenomenal!!! Such great and friendly customer service. The owners of the gallery are sooo nice and helpful. Great set of personalities in this store. Never pressure you to buy and they are always willing to show you anything you are interested in.  Gallery is beautifully decorated and there is so much to see.I will defiantly be back to pick up a very special mothers day gift. Great small local business!  They also host many local events, with the yummiest wine!!!

    This is a very, very dangerous store for me! Really great handcrafted jewelry, glass art, fun furniture.  Great staff, they are really friendly and knowledgeable, and you feel very much at home there.  I learned that the puffer fish in their saltwater tank is 14 years old (that's how comfy you can get here) while chatting about the various jewelry pieces I was interested in.  Check out the dichroic glass jewelry by Carol Silrum---- I've never seen multi-dimensional dichroic glass jewelry before, and it was exquisite and quite reasonably priced.

    I have been working with Shorelines in San Diego for many years providing Vinosus Jewelry to their customers.

    The store has an incredible selection of jewelry and art. The owners and their staff are genuine, friendly, knowledgeable and can help you find the right gift you are looking for. You will love this store!

    Christmas shopping at Shoreline was a joy!  Sara was incredibly helpful and sweet.  Their selection of natural stone jewelry is amazing.  So many beautiful pieces.  I can't wait to go back!

    Shorelines is such an amazing gallery! It is located in the heart of downtown and walking distance from Horton Plaza.They have classy stuff at affordable prices from artists locally and nationally.

    The owners are so personable and genuinely care about your satisfaction with your purchase. If you are going to buy some art, make it classy and go to Shorelines!

    Shorelines Gallery is absolutely beautiful. The ambiance makes me feel like I'm in an underwater jewelry store and quite possibly my legs will turn into mermaid fins. Or maybe that's what I wish.

    This is one of the cleanest, most stylish store I have ever been in. I love the layout, I love the staff (ALWAYS friendly and helpful), and the jewelry is EXQUISITE.

    I ALWAYS find something I want and something I can buy. This is my number one place to buy jewelry for family, and the place I tell my husband to go.

    They have each section laid out so that you can easily find what you are looking for (turquoise together, pearls together, amber together, etc). The jewelry is made by artists and each piece is so unique and different.

    I absolutely love this store and I have to control myself when I go in.

    A MUST go for anyone looking for fine jewelry at decent prices or a special gift for someone!

    Shorelines Gallery offers a truly unique shopping experience in downtown San Diego. Whether I'm looking for a birthday gift for a friend, a hostess gift, or a special treat for me, I'll find something for every occasion (and every price range). I especially love walking around looking at the jewelry displays--I always see a piece that I want! The pieces are clearly chosen with great taste and care.

    The customer service at this store has to be spoken for, as well. Sara and Tomi always take the time to listen to what I'm looking for and show me what they have to offer, including new pieces and gifts that I may not have noticed!

    Visiting the Shorelines Gallery is always a treat for the eyes and the imagination--I love this store!

    I LOVE Shorelines Gallery!  Their Jewelry is so beautiful, and they have a great variety of styles and prices.  My favorite is all of the sparkling crystal beaded bracelets and the almost die-cut style silver pieces - very chunky and cool.  I always like to stop by when I'm down town to see what new items they have, admire the enormous salt water fish tank and visit with the delightful sales team.  A definite pit stop on your lunch break to browse and pick up a treasure for yourself or someone you care about.  Definitely going to hit this place up for Christmas gifts for my mom and sister!

    Shorelines Gallery has fabulous jewelry and craft. They also have a store in Euerka, California, and it is probably the best store in Eureka. For those of you in Southern California, I recommend that you take the short drive to Shorelines Gallery in San Diego instead.

    Shorelines Gallery in the Gaslamp is wonderful! The staff is extremely warm and helpful, but also extremely knowledgeable of the pieces and the artists.

    You will always find something to purchase. I know I do!

    Shorelines Gallery is AWESOME!  They have so many unique, beautiful pieces here - you are sure to find something special here.  

    Tomi and Sara are amazing ladies!  They are so helpful, attentive, and fun.  They host regular events at the gallery with food and drinks and they are always a lot of fun.

    I was especially impressed with my experience recently purchasing a gift for Mother's Day.  My mother is a HUGE jewelry fan so I purchased a necklace and earrings from Shorelines.  My mother was so excited and blown away with the quality of the jewelry, she termed it her favorite necklace and earrings!  She is excited to visit from Chicago to check out what more they have to offer!  

    Thanks to the Shorelines crew for always being so friendly, warm, attentive, and helpful.  You guys are the best!
