The jewelry is lovely too, but the treasure here is the woodwork in the shop, which is done by the store owner's brother, who has a shop up the hill. The brother takes special orders, once you find him.
What to buy: Get your silver work done here - it costs less than elsewhere. But make an effort to seek out the woodworking.
What to pay: (Woodwork) Very reasonible for the quality.
(Jewelry) Appears competitive.
