Asked to exchange a pendant in white gold purchased and marked JC on the back for yellow gold-same pendant told no would have to purchase another in that color of gold. Shown on their webpage also. Poor communication and response time as I tried to explain 3 times that this was an exchange not a new purchase. Other Jewelry stores in Jackson Hole are friendlier and more accomodating to loyal buyers.

Extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff. Husband and wife owned. Lovely people. I have been a customer for at least ten years. Every time I travel to Jackson hole I pay then a visit. My wife loves Jeter's designs. Jan has been a great guide in choosing what I needed. I highly recommend them for a one of a kind piece of jewelry that will last for ever.

What a cute little fine jewelry store. Everything is made in house. Of course my lovely wife bought a necklace and a rose gold ring. The prices are very affordable. Tip: if you don't live in Wyoming or Utah, have it shipped, so you don't have to pay for taxes. The two ladies that were working were so sweet. They cleaned our rings for us.
