Atelier

Atelier is a wonderful find in Nashville. It is my go-to place for something unique for my wife. All of owner Susan Russell's pieces are original, high-quality and elegant. The showroom is inviting, with its small, understated atmosphere that is not overwhelming like almost every other jewelry store. Susan herself is great to work with: helpful without being pushy, open to ideas for custom pieces, and a true ally for last-minute purchases that suggest hours of thoughtful research and careful deliberation to mark a special date. With a quick phone call from me at the eleventh hour, Susan put the "merry" in "Merry Christmas" for my wife (and me) last year. For a friendly, easy, and unique experience, visit Atelier. more

If you are interested in jewelry or art, you can't afford to miss this Nashville gem--I promise it will become your go-to spot when you are looking for a gift or just want to treat yourself to something beautiful! I have visited jewelry stores all over the country and nowhere can beat Atelier for price and quality as well as unique and gorgeous designs. If you want to see your necklace on every other woman you pass in Green Hills, go to the mall. If you want to pay outrageous prices for cheap manufactured jewelry, look to a big box jeweler. If you want stunning one-of-a-kind jewelry from local artists and like turning heads when you go out, then THIS is your store. I love knowing everything I buy here is real--no fake materials, so my purchases are timeless and hold their value. The customer service is great, and there is always something new in store, so I find myself returning again and again. The pieces are surprisingly afordable, so when I need something fancy for a party, I can often get a casual piece too. Every time I wear jewelry from Atelier I get so many compliments and just feel beautiful! Pros: always real gemstones, so well-priced, breathtaking designs Cons: have to be in Nashville to shop here! more

Atelier has incredibly beautiful jewelry, yes, but don't overlook their terrific selection of local art!! Glasswork, pottery, paintings, you name it - I get gifts for all my friends and family here, and I love periodically going by to check out the new pieces while hearing all about their creation from an extremely helpful staff. All the artists featured are super talented - Gary Oglander, Timothy Weber, and many more - and you just can't beat the satisfaction of supporting local art! Many of my very favorite pieces of artwork are from Atelier, and I have a feeling there will only be more to come! Pros: Unbeatable selection of local art and jewelry Cons: None more

Atelier's jewelry selection is incredible.. all the pieces are beautiful, unique and not something you're going to see on every other woman in Green Hills. I am blown away by how many compliments I continue to get on the pieces that I've purchased there. The staff is super helpful (and will make you cappuccinos while you shop) and the store is clean and comfortable. My favorite jewelry store in Nashville. Pros: unique handmade jewelry, affordable prices more

I have had 2 great experiences shopping in this store. I love the really different jewelry they design, and the prices are GREAT. The women who work there are so nice and they really know their stuff. I wear the blue topaz earrings and bracelet I got there all the time, and get tons of compliments. I will be back for gifts-- for myself and my friends! Best jewelry shop I've ever been in. Pros: Indie designers,, great value, really special merchandise Cons: Can't see any! more

This place has the most unique jewelry and the designers there are amazing. I bought 2 necklaces and 5 pairs of earrings. I didn't need anything but the prices were great and it was like no jewelry i have ever seen before! I have been to Paris and this place tops every jewelry place there. Check it out and you won't be disappointed. Pros: Best Jewelry Place in Town! more

I stopped into Atelier for the first time the other day when the window display caught my eye. The store struck me as very clean and attractive, and the staff was super helpful. The jewelry is made by local independent artists, many of whom work in the store and can make custom orders. A great store for gift shopping and special events! Pros: original jewelry and friendly staff more

This is hands down my favorite jewelry store in Nashville!! Everything's handmade locally (most of it in their workroom in back) and the designs are just exquisite. Gorgeous pearls, beautiful gemstones, and Susan goes out of her way to make sure her customers are satisfied with the custom orders she takes! Pros: Unique one-of-a-kind jewelry, custom jewelry orders more

I began having my acrylic overlays done at the Green Hills location about 4 years ago. They've expanded to Belle Meade also where the parking is a bit better. Either place you go, the staff is absolutely wonderful, the environment is spotless, and the quality of work and value for the price is excellent. Give A Plus a try - you'll enjoy every aspect of your experience. Pros: Friendly, Clean, Great Service Cons: None more

I have been a customer of A+ Nails for over ten years and have loved both the service and personnel. They are a family owned business and obviously take great pride in what they do. Their new Belle Meade location is great - upscale, attractive, good location, etc. Although I live in Franklin, I will continue to come to A+ Nails. They are the BEST! Pros: Good parking, Flexible hours, Professional more

The folks at A+ are the nicest people you could ever meet. They are service-oriented all the way and make you feel welcome each time. They will become your friends. Give them a try. You won't go anywhere else. Pros: Friendly/professional, Beautiful salon, Good parking more
