That's not really a recommendation though. Unless you have a store name, it doesn't help someone who might already know of a good local, independent jeweler.

Love Quince, and wasn’t aware they had jewelry. Thanks!

I was just coming here to suggest Quince, as I literally just bought a pair of chunky gold hoops there and am surprised at how good they look and how much I like them. I'll definitely be buying more jewelry there, already eyeing this ring: https://www.quince.com/women/14k-gold-lab-grown-diamond-and-morganite-halo-ring

Your local, independent jeweler is great for that sort of thing.

That’s silly. Costco sells high quality jewelry as long as you like the design.

Costco is reliable.

These are vermeil, not 14k gold.

You are right that the pair I posted are vermeil, but Quince sells 14k, too. Here are chunky hoops in 14k from Quince: https://www.quince.com/women/14k-wide-round-bold-hoop?color=yellow-gold&gender=women&tracker=collection_page__%2Fwomen%2Fjewelry%2Fearrings-all__materials-14k%20Gold__All%20Products__5

Bloomingdales House brand when they have a sale is always great.

Costco is also very good quality.

Merjuri and Gorjana are interchangeable. Both are fine but they cater to a lower priced buyer most of the time. Their items that sell a lot are $500 or less very little gold in them. Don't get me wrong I have pieces from both that I adore, they are more fast fashion that's all.

Nordstrom's house brand Bony Levy is not as good as it used to be so don't buy that.

I love gold earrings from Costco. My everyday pair (studs) is from there and I frequently shower and sleep in them. Great quality,
