I've had the pleasure of dealing directly with Cynthia over the past year and I am truly impressed with her professionalism, knowledge and honesty. She is a credit to her industry and ALSO a credit to Toronto.

This shop has an incredible selection of goods! You don’t need to be spending hundreds of dollars for them to be incredibly eager to help you find what you’re looking for. Catharine turned my stressful Christmas shopping into an amazing and fun experience. She is incredibly helpful and a joy to have as help. Her and Cynthia even beautifully wrapped my gifts for me. Everyone here will make you walk out with a smile on your face
Edit Jan 5/21: The great 5 star experience I had a couple years ago was not able to be matched this time around. I was stopping in while visiting the city and I was

Visiting with Cynthia and chatting about jewellery and life is always a wonderful experience. Part of the story you carry forward is the sense of enjoyment and trust experienced with Cynthia.

This review is 3 months late but better late than never. Cynthia's service was great when we were selling some vintage crystal. Would definitely work with her again should the need arise.

Had a fantastic experience working with Cynthia Findlay to create an unique engagement ring for my fiancee. From conception to the final product, Cynthia was a great source of knowledge, taste and experience. We met several times to go over the design, and came out with a beautiful unique ring that my fiancee loves. I would definitely recommend Cynthia if you are looking for something special.

Lost my fiancee's grandmother's ring (who had recently passed) after bringing it to the shop to have it repaired. Cynthia made no thorough attempts to find the ring. How do I know? It was only after my Fiancee had cried in front of some customers that Cynthia called the next day and had found the ring. This was after almost two months.
Lazy and incompetent and that's being polite. To her credit she put the ring repair on the house. Yet, that was the least they could have done. This was a family heirloom, a deceased grandmother's ring, who meant the world to our family. It was priceless. Never

As it's usually the case with my reviews, I've waited until I had several visits and interactions with Cynthia before taking the time to write. I question the motives of those giving one-star ratings and writing reviews solely based on one visit/interaction.
I've met Cynthia approximately two years ago, after reading about businesses that buy and sell antique jewellery. Prior to my first visit to her store I went to three businesses and it was very clear to me that honesty was going to be difficult to find in this type of business. That is, until I came across Cynthia, her husband and staff.

I am from Denver and found the antique, Art Deco bracelet I’d been searching for on Cynthia’s website. After email communications and a phone call, I purchased the bracelet. Throughout the selection process and through international delivery, Cynthia and her husband George were extremely responsive, as well as helpful through each step. I received the bracelet and found it to be far more stunning than the photographs indicated. Not only did Cynthia have a great selection of period pieces (and I had searched extensively on multiple websites), she and George provided such incredibly personal

A most lovely and happy experience with Cynthia. She brings her expertise, patience and joy to the approach of finding a ring.
Given it is covid, I was able to search the website, narrow a selection and book an appointment, Cynthia was able to choose others based on my initial thoughts and I found the most unique and incredible ring. I was never pushed, Cynthia has a magical way about her.
I couldn't feel happier about this ring and finding it with my husband for our anniversary.

After a very challenging and distressing experience with purchasing an antique engagement ring at another major Toronto jeweler, we were very fortunate to find Cynthia who was not only able to help rectify the issue, but did it with such professionalism and understanding that she quite simply saved the day. She completely understood the vision we had for the ring for Day 1, and she did everything in her power to make it happen. We were so happy with the final result, that we ended up ordering a custom wedding band from Cynthia, and we will be coming back for all future purchases. We recommend Cynthia

Be more attentive to what is promised and said. I sold some items and was happy but items that she asked me to ship she decided was not going to buy and has delayed for over a month to get back to a friend in Toronto. She will not ship them directly to me and they were sent at her request. So no regard for having to take responsibility and then declining to ship to me or buy items as originally agreed. While a nicer person to chat with out of sight out of mind!
