Jewels

I love this store! Most of the merchandise is made by local artists. So many fascinating, unusual, beautiful, unique, eerie, mystical jewelry, masks, hats, paintings, photos, books, etc, etc. I went in because I had heard that they sell theatrical contacts. (I needed some vampire contacts for a Halloween costume.) The sales assistant, Zombie (yes, that's his name), was so helpful! They carry a huge selection of styles and colors. He took the time to show me several styles, and explained about the care and storage of contacts since I've never worn them before. (I decided on a pair called "Zombie.") They also included printed instructions. If you are looking for a unique gift, or some creepy contacts, I can highly recommend "Jewels."

Love this store! Walked in and it was like we were being welcomed into someone's home. The two gentleman, both local artists, that were working were super nice and helpful.
This store is small, but you can spend forever taking it all in. There are so many unique pieces. There's truly something for everyone. We picked up a few gemstones, and a piece of art. Great stuff. Decent prices as well!

Come by and see Terry and Zombieboy. They are the nicest people you could ever want to meet. They are extremely helpful and knowledgeable about New Orleans and the history. There are many interesting artwork pieces throughout the business. Jewelry, incense, license plate art and more items that are mostly all locally made. These are great souvenirs with meaning, much more than a magnet. I can't wait to come back and see them again.

If it wasn't for Terry and his charm we probably never would've stepped foot in this store. He's is everything you would want in a New Orleans store host . He was very knowledgeable about New Orleans and the jewelry in his store , charming, Genteel , knowledgeable, flattering with a touch of naughty and sass! We absolutely loved our time with him.. we walked away with a beautiful ring and memory of Terry. Made us feel like rock stars

Great little store. Nice selection of gifts that are good as keepsakes from New Orleans. From good dolls to artwork to jewelery.

I loved this store. love the products the dude who helped me...but then i bought a little doll, a voodoo doll, and boy o boy...

the credit card thingie wasn't working, and now i feel i've been scammed.

i was charged five times after waiting to pay for approximately 20 minutes. now having to deal with my CC company. honestly, i was going to call the store, or write them, but no such information is available. SO, as a consumer who has jumped through WAY too many hassle hoops, me thinks not.

i hope i don't have to expend more energy on this. if so, i'm sticking pins in the voodoo doll!

FOLLOW UP: (and star adjustment)
not a scam, just a human/tech error/hassle. still, annoying that there is no place to contact this establishment (another star would have been added fwiw).

The first thing you'll notice are the cool motorcycles but then you'll gravitate towards the collection of local photography, DOD art, prints, giclée's, dolls, masks and ceramics. Cool silver jewelry, local designers, and they have poison rings!!

Over the weekend, I visited New Orleans for a mini-vacation.
While my buddy shopped at the store next door, I decided to check out this little store.
The guy working the shop, - I believe his name was Zombie- was a sweet, sweet guy, who was super helpful and pleasant and cute :-). He even prayed over the item I bought -so sweet- and gave me some pointers to a Museum.
Good customer service is extremely important to me. It can mean the difference between spending money in one store versus another. It also makes you feel good.
Zombie, you made my Sunday.
Next time I visit New Orleans, I will definitely check out your store again.

What a hidden gem. There are dozens of this type of store in the FQ and I looked in many of them. What sits this store apart from the others is a sales clerk by the name of Terry. What a pleasure it was to happen to met this fella. He embellishes a true southern gent. He was full of stories and kind words told only like a true New Orleans gent can. I was beyond honored to have spent a few moments with Terry. I could have spent all afternoon listening to him. The pleasure was all mine

Yes, it's touristy, but the art inside is super cool. Everything inside is hand painted or hand made and worth the money. The quality is better than what you'll find at other similar places in the French Quarter. The guy working in the shop is really helpful and super nice as well.
