Favor

Absolutely beautiful hand made jewelry. This marvelous shop is exploding with color and creativity. A total treat.

This store is simply delightful! Handmade jewelry by the store owner, terrific gift cards, fantastic little gifts. Earrings of the Golden Gate Bridge, Frida Kahlo bracelets, Halloween themed jewelry, Dog necklaces, Toadstool rings. There's something for everyone, and you're shopping locally at a small business! Win win!

This place is worth visiting even if you are not thinking of buying something for you or a friend. The jewelry displays are beautiful and unlike anywhere else.

High quality, handmade jewelry with a distinct aesthetic. Owned by lovely people!

LOVE this jewelry for myself and for buying as gifts!!!! Plenty of goth loveliness and brightly colored kitchy stuff - and everything else in between.

I LOVE this store so bad! There are countless cool and kitschy bobbles, bangles, earrings, necklaces etc. to choose from it’s insane. The owner, Caramia so amiable and helpful. Can’t say enough good things!

My friend had told me about a little shop that sold poodle necklaces-knowing how I'm such a fanatic about poodles. We finally made it in yesterday and WOW!!!
It was like being inside a kaleidoscope when I walked inside. So much color and whimsy my head spun with amazement.
The artist/owner, Caramia, came over and showed me all things with poodles and when I saw this amazing necklace with incredible poodles and black glass beads, I was in love.
Caramia even made the clasp on the necklace left-hand friendly for me.
If you're looking for something unique for yourself or as a gift: run

Hmmmm this is a secret stash for me for jewelry finds that are unique and not cookie cutter.

I have some great unique pieces that when i wear them i always get compliments.

Caramia is unbelievable designer of unique pieces with a vintage twist. It's so hard to leave her store - so many options there!

This shop is incredible. The owner is beyond gracious and eager to share her knowledge behind every piece. From vintage French beaded necklaces, to hand-created German resin pieces (designed and finished in-house), there's such an array to choose from. I can shop here for the funky best friend, down to my more conservative mother. If you enjoy supporting local business or have an eye for something fun and different, I suggest taking a peak inside.

Favor is my go-to shop for gifts. Its great selection is frequently updated with seasonal products. The artist /shop owner is warm, friendly and provides excellent service. Her hand-made jewelry is often whimsical and of high quality. Convenient metered street parking located in front of store.

Fun jewelry, gifts, and accessories. This store is my kryptonite; I find it difficult to walk out of here empty handed. There’s inevitably some cool must-have treasure to be had, either for myself or as that perfect gift.

Absolutely wonderful place to buy hand-crafted jewelry. The artist makes almost everything herself. Purchased a really nice one-of-a-kind necklace and will be back to get more unique, bold pieces for myself and my friends.

This place is AMAZING. Wonderful stuff, incredible display--really a visual delight. I bought two pair of earrings, and could have gone really nuts if not for a remaining modicum of self-restraint. (This whole row of shops is just--well--words fail. You should go. Just go.) And the owner/designer of all this lusciousness is an absolute doll. Go. You'll have a great time.

I have two necklaces from Favor and I wear them frequently. Every single time I get complimented and asked about them. The shop owner makes a lot of the pieces and sources some amazing and unique jewelry and gifts. She's incredibly sweet and creative. I highly recommend this shop-- a local gem where you'll walk away with high quality unique accessories:)

I was looking for some modestly unique earrings for my girlfriend because I lost her other one. I was so excited with the pair that the nicest lady working there helped me find that I forgot to get her name! She polished and gift wrapped them! Thank you so much! I highly recommend this place.

Lovely selection of beautiful vintage-inspired jewelry and lots of great little gifts - their most recent storefront is larger and filled to the brim with cuteness. I went around Halloween and they had lots of felt cats, pumpkins and witches as well as limited edition versions of their classics with Halloween themed images. Highly recommended!!

My wife LOVED this boutique. Gifts for her friends, family and herself. Quite eye-catching jewelry and displays, very unique and recommended.

I like art. I don't know much about it, I just know when I like something. Monet grabs me, most things in SFMOMA baffle me.

I'd like to own art, but I haven't reached the level of grown-up-iness needed to go into an art gallery and invest in expensive wall hangings. Well, that was my old way of thinking. Favor made me realize that art doesn't have to just hang on your walls.

Favor is a well curated treasure trove of wearable and useable art. Everything is handmade, much of it locally. They have unique and playful jewelry, coin purses, makeup bags, cards, decorative accents

What a delightful store! Favor is now my "go to" for gifts for my female friends. The store is chocked full with locally-made jewelry (much of it made right on site, in the studio just behind the retail floor). The owner is friendly and helpful, providing lots of information without ever being pushy. The prices are quite reasonable for the high quality you find there. You could pick up a simple necklace or set of earrings for around $25 or go for something more intricate or with finer materials for $30-$50. The space is bright and cheerfully decorated; and all in all, I say that

So many beautiful things - and something for everyone's taste from cutesy to funky to traditional. Prices are reasonable and also reflect a broad selection range.

This place is so fun! So many different types of jewelry. I have bought a few pieces here and both times I went in the Proprietor was extremely friendly, chatting to find out what my tastes were and making great recommendations. The resin jewelry is funky and fun and there are lot of unique pieces here. I am so glad I stopped by on a whim while walking around Berkeley. I will be putting this place on my default list of places to get cool gifts as well.

I read about this place in the Chronicle and was nearby for one of my Spanish Table trips. Super cute jewelry, very reasonable prices! I wore my cherry earrings and necklace twice over Labor Day weekend. It is just a block away from Acme Bread and Kermit Lynch wines so it can be part of a fun shopping trip.

I happened to walk by this place while wandering through west Berkeley recently and was drawn inside by all the unique jewelry. What a collection!! Caramia, the owner and designer, explained that this was her new location-- she'd recently moved out here from the city-- but I think it's a great part of town for this kind of shop.

There was only one other person in the shop at the time, so Caramia cheerfully walked me through, explaining all the different kinds of work she does and all the materials she uses. I learned so much about resins in just 10 mins! Because Caramia makes most of

Really good, friendly, and helpful customer service, and a fun selection of all sorts of interesting jewelry/accessories. My wife got some good stuff here.
