I have been to both locations(this designer has one in New Haven, too) and was surprised that they didn’t have more interesting pieces, given that it’s a designer shop. There was more to choose from that was unusual in New Haven in their shop there, I should note. They have a lot of the standard gemstones in prong settings, but there were a few unusual pieces. My boyfriend took me in here to find something special for my birthday. We found one pair of earrings that we both really liked, but the problem with them was just that they had short wires that didn’t fit my ears well. I was surprised that, as a jeweler, they did not offer to replace the wires with one of the many styles of gold leverbacks that are available, even if it cost more. They kept pushing the little rubber stoppers as the solution to the issue. I should note that when I went to the New Haven location of the store and noted the same issue with another pair of earrings, the salesperson quickly pointed out that they could put any kind of wire on that I wanted, and even got out the book to show me the options and prices. As a result, we walked away from the Madision store. If you’re looking for fine gold and pure silver designer work and are in the Madison area, I would recommend this store. But push for what you want if something needs to be changed. As I learned from their other location, anything is possible.
