I have been making jewelry for over 25 years, I am excited to teach you the different techniques I am utilizing in my jewelry making for the store. One of the technique is known as wire wrapping. We will use either Sterling silver or Gold filled wire and with help of three different pliers we will create a beautiful, timeless piece (necklace or bracelet) to wear.
Collection of new pieces, assortment of beautifully crafted necklaces, inspired by our natural surroundings. Pieces crafted with gems like Pyrite, Aquamarine, and Chocolate Moonstone, using oxidized silver and shiny yellow gold.
When Chocolate Moonstone meets Rainbow Moonstone, this necklace was inspired by the solar eclipse: in the final seconds before and after totality, a series of white glowing dots of sunlight, appear along the edge of the moon's silhouette.This jewel-like display is formed by sunlight seeping through the deep valleys and craters along the edge of the lunar disk.

Passing through so I decided to check out this shop. Clerk was friendly and welcoming. They have lots of cute and unique jewelry. They have women's clothing and accessories. Lots of gift items and cool ceramics.
Good prices for rings! Seems like most rings are over size 6.
They also do jewelry repair here.
Plenty of street parking.

Cute shop filled with a bunch of eclectic goods - handmade jewelry, coloring books, notecards, specialty items like ceramic owls, handmade bags, and card holders. It's hard to describe what you may or may not find here. The staff who greeted us was the friendliest. They have a punch card so if you really like what they sell, then you can score here. Items are on the pricier side but the jewelry is probably their specialty above all. Beautiful pieces!

I am familiar with this delightful boutique from their El Segundo Plaza location as well as the one at Westside Pavilion. My unique wedding band is from here, made by an artisan silversmith in Israel, as well as a mezuzah cover and a beautiful bracelet.
What I buy here most often, though, is unusual stationery like thank you cards and blank cards I use to congratulate colleagues on accomplishments. One of a kind jewelry is complemented by a gracefully curated collection of stylish accessories.
A peaceful and beautiful place to find the unusual gift for myself or someone I love.

I honestly love this place. I go here to get all the females in my life gifts all the time and they've never been disappointed. Plus they always get awesome compliments. I should've written a review 5 years ago when I started going but I've probably bought about 10 pieces from here.
Everything is unique and handcrafted. I promise your significant other will not be upset.

I've shopped at Antiqua several times and always had a good experience until today. I bought my mother a pair of earrings for Mother's Day. She didn't care for the style so she attempted to exchange the earrings. The store clerk (owner?) stated that the earrings were damaged. My mom informed her that she never removed the earrings from the box so she couldn't have damaged them. Unfortunately, the clerk refused to exchange the earrings. Perhaps the earrings were not made well and this is why a stone came off (it was in the box). Regardless, the owner was rude to my mother

Really gorgeous handmade jewelry. The owner (who is usually at the store herself) has always been very helpful with helping me figure out what kind of gift I'm looking for when I walk in with a vague collection of ideas.
In addition to being handmade (and unique that way) they will customize the items for you by matching with other things in the store, adjusting the measurements etc. Highly recommend it!

When I'm shopping for jewelry, I want a conversation piece. Whether it's simple and elegant or big and bold, I'm always on the lookout for something unique. The jewelry at Antiqua satisfies this particular craving.
Antiqua has handmade, one-of-a-kind pieces designed by the owner, Iris, who is almost always in the store. Between the quality merchandise and the lovely store owner, my shopping experiences at Antiqua are always wonderful.
Iris also lends her services to repairing, maintaining, and recreating jewelry. Her craftsmanship is superb and her taste is exquisite.

This is the coolest little jewelry shop! I stopped in here totally by chance when I zipped into the Westside Pavilion to do a return...I got to chat with the owner, who is so sweet. She can make anything in the shop customized to your taste and style. Need it shorter? Longer? Different chain? Different pendant? Done!
She'll spend the time with you to make sure you love what you discovered there...I loved the little place right away! Don't just pass by on your way somewhere else, you'll definitely be missing out!

I bought my wedding jewelry here. I opted for orange necklace and earrings which I still wear. She spent about an hour with us trying on piece after piece after piece. About six months later I came back with my friend to get her wedding jewelry. It was in black so we had her make it in green. Plus I got my bridesmaid jewelry as well. Customer service was excellent as she again spent a lot if time with us.

I have been coming here for years and have never left the store without a little gold box. The woman who makes most, if not all, the jewerly here is amazing. I was just in here with a friend looking for her wedding jewerly and left with the necklace she was wearing. She also modified the earings that matched to fit right. One of a kind stuff, made to order and everyting inbetween. Love, Love, Love. They also do repairs.

This store has lots of items but the beautiful jewelry is what I'm drawn to. Earrings - all kinds, all prices. I bought 2 pairs - colorful teal hoops and chandelier types. Every time I go in there's only one sales person, so if they're busy you can't really get any help. However, I usually don't go for the more expensive stuff in the glass cases (that need unlocking by the employee). I can always find unique earrings here, and hmm.. maybe I should start looking at the necklaces next time... A "must stop" when I'm at the mall.

Antiqua jewelry is lovely, no question. But I will never shop here again.
I have purchased many gifts for friends, teachers, loved ones and was stunned by the service I received yesterday. I was the only person in the store and the salesperson followed me around and watched me like a hawk. As if she thought I would steal something. I will NEVER go in again and if I could have (birthday present needed that day) I would have walked out without purchasing anything. Please do not shop here.
