Shop Hoboken! The city’s best holiday shopping guide
Less than 10 days ’til Christmas! Today’s Shop Hoboken! takes us to my favorite type of store, Hoboken Gold & Diamonds115 Washington St. jewelry store at
The 30-year old Hoboken institution is family-owned and run by the father/son team of Joseph and Anthony Lenardo. Stop in this week for some good old-fashioned Hoboken Italian hospitality and beautiful diamonds, gold and watches. Read on for fabulous (and affordable!) gift ideas from the store.
Hoboken Gold & Diamonds does a steady business in engagement rings all year round, but Christmas through April is a peak time. Diamond rings range from $1,000 for a half-carat to some top-quality pieces as high as $100,000. All diamond and engagement rings are GIA- or EGL-certified.
This holiday season, the Journey diamond necklaces are extremely popular gifts for women, says Joseph Lenardo. Ranging from $200 to $2,000, the necklaces come in trio or circle arrangements, a symbolic representation of life’s “journey.” Hoboken Gold & Diamonds also has a beautiful diamond stud earring collection, some priced as low as $99.
From today until Christmas, take up to 40 percent off every piece of jewelry in the store. Hoboken Gold & Diamonds also custom designs jewelry, and will work within all different tastes and budgets. They have a jewelry repairman in store Tuesday through Saturday and, unlike many other stores, will fix or re-size engagement rings while you wait.
