I walked into Miguel’s shop and just started looking around. He waited patiently as I walked around the store and as soon as we started talking I knew I was in for a treat. He was so kind and his passion for working with silver was evident. He is extremely talented and will tell you how each piece is made and how certain designs were improved by his grandfather and his father. You really must stop in his shop. It was just such a delight to talk to him. It’s not cheap jewelry because it is pure silver and handcrafted but the prices are fair ($50 USD for earrings and $250usd for the necklace) I thought I had just walked in to look but I walked out with earrings and an intricately crafted necklace. I cannot recommend this place enough. Please stop by and support a local silversmith.

Alicia is a gem! I went to B & G with the very high hope that I could have a pair of shoes made for my two differently-sized feet. I provided a photo, Alicia took my measurements, and within a week, she proceeded to make a perfect pair of shoes for me. They are gorgeous and comfortable. There is a wide selection of leather to choose from when placing a custom order. You will not be disappointed. Thank you, Alicia and staff!
