I came here after travelling for one month in Colombia and finding it difficult to find authentic and quality souvenirs for my family. I had a few hours left in Medellin so I did a quick Google search of the best places to find gifts. Caballo De Troya came up first so I decided to give it a shot. The reviews definitely live up to reality! The shop is beautifully laid out according to Colombian region making it easy for you to find the most beautiful gifts in an organized fashion. From the window display to the inside interior, this shop is incredibly pleasing to the eye and easy to navigate. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly offering delicious free tea or coffee to you as you shop. Any questions I had about where the pieces derive from the staff had the answer. The items were wrapped to perfection which helped with my anxiety of them breaking in my luggage! When I had to leave the store to go to the airport I found it difficult to find a taxi but the staff was extremely helpful with this to which I am extremely thankful! I had a wonderful experience in the store and found unique gifts and pieces of art I was unable to find anywhere else in Colombia, the quality and thought that goes into each piece of art is evident. I would highly recommend this to anyone who appreciates the value of giving high quality to gifts to loved ones from your travels.

Remarking "deciding" rather than shopping based on my experience with Muzem , I knew exactly where to come for such a precious set of rings. Great history of satisfaction ( purchased few pieces of jewelry before) personalized customer service at a great level by Geraldin , Luz Dary , Jorge, actually every single person in the store (enjoy the colombian coffee treat while there ????)amazing knowledge and quality of the product they offer,honest and genuine interest and care for customer satisfaction in every area, great prices and always a final touch to make you feel more important and valuable (even more) as a customer. Family business environment for so beautiful colombian emeralds and more , creating memories of a lifetime.

Ten days after deciding on a design of an emerald ring with Gerson, we received the finished product. It is stunning...the workmanship on the emerald ring, complemented with diamonds accentuates the beauty of this precious stone. We couldn’t have picked a better jeweller for our Colombian keepsake. We highly recommend Emerald by Love for their selection, workmanship, professionalism and incredible customer service, not to mention fair pricing. Save yourself time, effort and money and visit Gerson at his shop in Bogotá for the best emeralds in the city.

Reviewed By helenrJ311CY

Both Marina and Carlos were extremely helpful when my husband and I purchased a beautiful white gold and emerald pendant while staying in Cartegena. We were introduced to the shop and owner by our local guide, who recommended their range and honesty. We were not disappointed and when we needed documentation for claiming tax back at the airport before our flight home to the UK, Carlos could not have been more helpful. Would thoroughly recommend.
