My husband and I have been shopping at Joint Ventures since Valentines Day 1999. Over the years he has bought me several nice pieces and we have bought several Christmas and Mother's Day gifts for our Moms. Donna always has time to show us interesting pieces of jewelry, and has a good selection of merchandise from about $150 on up into the several thousands. She also lets you examine each item up close, and try things on so you can be comfortable with a purchase. Of course, wearing it is the first step to buying it, so beware Donna's ability to find something you have to take home!\r

They also are willing to order items for you if they don't have the exact item you need (chains, wedding bands, etc). The store also keeps track of repeat customers, remembering things like anniversaries with postcards including a coupon for a substantial discount.\r

All in all, Joint Ventures is a shop we keep going back to, so that is the best recommendation we can give.\r
