Wilmette’s Full-Service Jeweler, Since 1973
For more than fifty years, Wilmette families have trusted Cottage Jewelry for what a single-specialty shop can’t always offer under one roof: custom engagement rings designed from scratch, estate jewelry, heirloom resets, expert repair, certified appraisals, and honest gold buying. And unlike appointment-only studios, you can simply walk in — no appointment needed.
Engagement Rings & Custom Design
Our master jewelers handcraft engagement rings and wedding bands from the first sketch, reset cherished stones, and guide you with no pressure and complete transparency. Want something entirely your own? Start a custom design — walk-ins welcome, Tuesday through Saturday. New to the search? Our North Shore ring-buying timeline lays out every step.
Also Buying Gold & Estate Jewelry
Cottage Jewelry is also the North Shore’s trusted buyer of gold, platinum, diamonds, and complete estate collections — evaluated privately, at fair market value, and paid by check the same visit. No pressure, no obligation.
