    925 Galería

    For showy, ‘look-at-me’ jewelry, there’s this small but shiny storefront. Inside, thick silver bracelets with glittery faux diamonds and semiprecious stones will tempt the princess in you, as will the dinner plate–sized rings. All pieces, from earrings to necklaces, are unique. Classes in jewelry-making available as well.

    Cat Ballou

    Esteemed designers Alicia Goñi and Florencia Pieres kick out some of the city's most fashionable clothing and jewelry, allowing BA's hip upper echelons to gypsy things up. Pieres' splendid, fairly priced jewelry combines fabric and jewels with an exquisitely beautiful, ragtag result.

    Plata Nativa

    Plata Nativa is owned and operated by a local trio with a passion for South American folk art. Traditional Mapuche Indian designs inspired this collection of burnished silver candelabras, pendants and earrings made with large ruby-red jewels and ethnic oil paintings on fabric.
