Past Era Antique Jewelry

Owner

Past Era Antique Jewelry is an independent Houston jeweler specializing in fine antique and estate jewelry from 1800-1940. Brides-to-be say our filigree diamond engagement rings are the prettiest in the city, and we also carry a lovely and varied collection of antique earrings, necklaces, pins, bracelets, chains, lockets, pearls, cufflinks and wedding bands in prices to suit every collector's budget.

The ambiance of our shop is warm and friendly, and staff members take special pleasure in helping shoppers choose gifts of jewelry that are right for them. Elegant gift wrap, description cards telling the history of each piece of jewelry, and a delicious box of chocolate cameos--a Past Era trademark--are little extras customers enjoy when they shop with us. Repairs, appraisals and custom design projects in the antique style are also welcomed. Visit Past Era today--you'll be delighted.

I have to say, I am very surprised by the previous reviewers statements! I have been a customer at Past Era for almost 15 years now, and I have always been treated like a star. I had a clasp fall off of a necklace once, but I took it back and they repaired it quickly and it was around my neck the next week! Every time I go into the shop, I fall in love with something new...and every morning, I find it is my Past Era jewelry that I automatically pull out of my jewelry box. If you want pretty and unique pieces that you know you'll never see on anyone else, give them a try.

After visiting what seemed like every high-end jewelry store in the city (Tiffany, Bulgari, Cartier, the new DeBeers store in the Galleria, Bailey, Banks, and Biddle, etc.) - and many more on-line - in search of a Christmas gift for my wife, I could not have been more pleased to find Past Era. The level of customer service I received from Marion and her associates was simply superlative. Everyone was warm, friendly, and, most important of all, extremely knowledgeable. These are not simply salespeople trying to earn a commission; Marion's knowledge of, and passion for, antique and estate jewelry is impressive and very evident. I had such an enjoyable experience picking out a necklace for my wife that I can't wait to come back and shop here again. The selection is also quite impressive. They have a good number of pieces on display, but many more in stock. When I described what I was looking for (an understated necklace), Marion brought out three or four items that were ideal. She spoke knowledgeably about each piece, and there was never any kind of sales pressure at all. I find a great deal of the jewelry at standard high-end jewelers to be a bit gaudy, hence my appreciation for antique and estate jewelry, which always seems to be tasteful and elegant. In sum, do yourself a favor (and avoid the Galleria!) and visit Past Era. I will never visit another jewelry store.

I was quite nervous about finding just the right present to give as an anniversary gift! I went to several different places and by the time I arrived at Past Era I was very frustrated. I can't believe they were able to help me figure out just the right thing. They wanted to know things like what her personal style was and did she wear more yellow or white jewelry. I'd never thought about that. Anyway, my wife loved her surprise and I will be going to Past Era for each anniversary. Thank you Marion, Michelle, Melissa, Cristina and Lindsay!!
