Gem Home + Jewelry

"We had a great experience at GEM. My son and I both bought the wrong size bracelets as Christmas presents. The team took care of us in a timely and super-friendly manner. Will return!"

"Gem is a charming shop. Immediately upon seeing the entrance in the alley-like walkway I was compelled to explore. Once inside I felt transported. There are products and gifts that call to all your senses and the atmosphere is warm and cozy. A few items that come to mind are patterned rugs, soft pillows, rugged stools, smooth stones, fragrant candles, incense and of course the gorgeous jewelry! The staff are kind and knowledgeable. Happy to help answer questions or let you shop alone if that is your preference. I was so excited to find some really beautiful and unique jewelry here. I didn’t feel the timing was right to buy the pieces for myself, though the sales person offered to start a wishlist. It ended up working out beautifully, my husband went back to purchase a couple of things for my birthday."

"This store is such a hidden treasure in the Chicagoland area. I have moved away but still find my most loved, unique and special jewelry here. I never visit Chicago without stopping in to shop."

"This is THE place for unique jewelry and gifts! They carry an incredible selection of one-of-a-kind vintage finds, artwork, and thoughtful pieces to create a home that feels uniquely yours. The jewelry is what started it all, though, 19 years ago. Now in their fifth location, and still showcasing pieces designed and made in house, and breathtaking pieces from around the world. Go, check it out! You will be inspired."

"I first found their shop on Instagram because I was looking for permanent bracelets. I got one and I’m hooked. I went back for another, then a necklace, now a piercing with my beautiful new earrings. Everyone who works here is always so sweet and accommodating. They take their time and answer all your questions. I’ve even communicated with them on Instagram and they get back to me very quickly. You can tell they care about their clients and the products they sell. I always look forward to coming and shopping at Gem. I’ve even done an online purchase and it was fast and easy. My only regret is that I can’t buy one of everything whenever I go!"
