18/08/2025: Cozy jewelry cafe and nice employees

03/05/2025: Super cozy place where you can make time fly by. We arrived on a Saturday morning at 11 am and to start with there were only 4 of us in the jewelry café. However, that changed quickly during the two hours we were there. I asked for an inspiration catalog, but unfortunately they didn't have one. We were referred to inspiration through the jewelry in the café, but there wasn't that much and I ended up looking on Pinterest. The selection was okay large and the staff very helpful. We were looking for a specific color pearl, with a specific letter and the staff let us look through 'storage boxes' that weren't normally on display, but were intended for replenishing goods. Big plus for that. Unfortunately, the most exciting parts were something that you had to pay extra for. Calculate 5-45 kr for each special pearl or metal part you want. The pearls that are included in the price of the jewelry are the classic Greenlandic pearls. I ended up paying around 279 kr for my earrings, which I have shown in the picture. It seems a bit expensive, considering that I made the jewelry myself, but I have chosen to take it as an experience. Along the way, I had to ask for new jewelry parts, as one broke and others were not compatible / completely the same, so the quality may not be right in the eye every time. However, the staff was very accommodating, did not charge anything for the new parts, but exchanged them without blinking. Here after 2-3 weeks of constant use, the gold parts have fortunately not rubbed off (yet) and the earrings are still completely intact. So that is a plus. 😉 All in all, a pleasant experience that was so absorbing that the cup of cafe latte I had planned to order never came to fruition, because time ran out. 😅 It will probably be a while before I come back, as it is one of the more expensive experiences of its kind. 😜
