I love Lisa and her store. I can always find something for someone in her store. The staff was friendly and super helpful. I never walk out empty handed.

Lisa Violetto looks like such a cute store. I always want to buy something, but nothing every really catches my fancy. I guess the jewelry and bags are just not my style. Also I find the customer service to be unnecessarily cold and unfriendly.

This store is okay. On the positive side, I appreciate how dog-friendly they are. Otherwise, there’s nothing terribly wrong with the store but there’s nothing especially interesting about it either. The selection is pretty standard and their layout could definitely use a makeover. I really liked the booth with the button jewelry. It added a spark to the place. The button lady was cool, and her button jewelry was neat. Where did she go?

Lisa and her store are A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! You’ll never go wrong getting a special gift here(and if you’re stumped Lisa will visit with you and point you in the right direction). She has fabulous jewelry for any occasion on site as well. And, if you need something custom or tweaked she’s your woman. It is all too rare and beautiful to have a a neighborhood shop to meet your every need and with the comfort and friendliness this place allows. Truly a rock star professional, friendly shop. Thank you! PS. For a personal tidbit — the most recent jewelry arrangement I was in need of was something to dress up a lavender bridesmaid dress… I was to be one of 7 in the wedding. Starting off with a gorgeous labradorite pendant, we decided on a couple concepts and ideas and Lisa went fullforce with her creative ways to put together a necklace and earrings that turned out REALLY special(and this was in a jiffy).

I love this store! I’ve never had any problems with the staff — always incredibly friendly and you can even bring in your dog — how cool! I also usually adore the jewelry — paricularly some really great knit wire jewelry — very unique. I like that they havef such great area designers. Great place!

I have visited Lisa Violetto’s a few time and haven’t really bought anything, except a heat pack. However, recently they have added an antique and vintage jewelry counter to the store which they didn’t previously have, and it has made me walk into this store a lot more often than I used to. So this review is for the button jewelry counter. I have recently fallen in love with button jewelry since seeing some pieces in a jewelry store in Old Town Auburn on the way to Lake Tahoe, but it was waaaaaay expensive. Well then I was VERY excited to find this store in my hood. Pam hand makes these exquisite pieces that are very unique. Each button has a story, and she is very knowledgeable about the history and the country of origin. She recently showed pieces at the de Young museum for Bouquet to Arts exhibition 2009. I have bought a ring and a 2 pendants, of which one was going to be a gift but I decided to gift it to myself. These are for sale at VERY reasonable prices :-) I am always happy to visit the button jewelry counter and chat with Pam. I have never found the sales people to be pushy, and Pam is quite enthusiastic about her product, and you can tell that she is proud of each piece! This is rather refreshing and I think its great to be able to meet the artisan and wear a piece of history!

This is a cute little shop that has a nice selection of home accessories, jewelry, and handbags(made by Lisa herself!). It also has a corner full of baby items, with a number of things which would make excellent shower gifts. This is the place to go if you need a gift for a person who likes sparkly earrings and funky purses, a Francophile who needs something with an Eiffel Tower on it, or someone who loves wonderfully-scented soaps or candles.

Definitely hit this store if you need to find a housewarming gift for someone… you can’t miss. The quality of the items they stock is very high… would make a great impression(candles, knickknacks etc.). A welcome addition to the 24th Street oeuvre.

This store smelt sooooo good when you walk in… refreshing and just aromatic. They have all these girlie items, polka dot teapot set, accesories, candles to cute tees which said«415 forever and for real. I’ll never move to Walnut Creek!»
