Von Bargen's Jewelry Stowe

"Not truthful or just a bad day? I popped into Von Bargen's Jewelry a bit after noon today and asked if they worked on watches. I have a unique metal watch that needed a couple of clips/panels of the wristband removed. The owner told me that they didn't service watches. I asked if there was anybody nearby they recommended and she told me that "nobody in the Stowe area works on watches. The most nearby place is TickTock in Burlington." I thanked her and left but couldn't quite believe that nobody in Stowe would service watches. On my way out of town, I stopped at Ferro (another jeweler down the road) and lo and behold, they were super kind and altered my watch for me on the spot! Thank you, Patrick. I then asked the owner of Ferro's if there was any reason the blonde lady at Von Bargen's told me there wasn't anybody in town would work on watches. He seemed puzzled for a bit and then said that she sends anybody asking for "watch work" their way. Hm. Not sure why I was sent to Burlington vs. 100 yards down the road. It's unfortunately because the jewelry in the display cases looked stunning but based on my experience earlier, I'd rather spend my money elsewhere."

"I highly recommend Von Bargens for any of your jewelry needs. The staff is professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. Nicole has recommended many items based on my personal style. They carry many unique designers and pieces you won’t find everywhere. If something isn’t in the store, they’re more than happy to get something comparable in. They are my go-to jewelry store in Stowe!"

"My husband and I had the pleasure to be introduced to the Stowe Von Bargen's and the amazing staff this past June when we went in with my brother and sister in law, who have been customers for a few years. We were greeted and cared for as if we were the ones who returning customers! Although we didn't go in for anything specific, Nicole asked a few questions about my tastes and happily suggested I try on a few different pieces. We felt no pressure at all, yet received so much information about the pieces, their origin, etc. I left with some new knowledge about jewelry that is much appreciated. We love that this isn't a cookie cutter jewelry store and will definitely return on our next trip to Stowe. You won't find nicer or more caring people!"

"I have gotten 3 wonderful rings from Von Bargen's. I am allergic to Cooper, which rules out yellow gold, silver, and rose gold. White gold I have to have replated every 2 years. They replace my 2 white gold rings for me and do an excellent job. My 3 Sarah Graham rings are steel and safe for me. I am local and buying myself a ring is a special treat I only get to do every few years and they are kind, polite and recognize me by name every time. I've even gotten to meet Sarah Graham twice! They are the only store I purchase jewelry from! Photo is off my 3 rings, tip I've had for 5 years, middle is brand new and bottom is somewhere in between. They all start off black and as you wear them they black wears off, which is my favorite thing!"

"I can’t say enough good things about Von Bargen’s Jewelry! Not only is their jewelry stunning, but the customer service is exceptional! I’ve had the privilege of working with Nicole who helped create the engagement ring of my dreams! They truly make you feel like family and their attention to detail is unmatched. I recommend them to everyone I know and will continue to come here for all of my jewelry needs as they’ve earned my trust and loyalty. 10/10 !"
