What We Do At Chimera Design


Say Hello to our video from Eric Dimmick and his crew at Ozone Films in Grand Rapids. Here is a link to Ozone: OZONE FILMS

Do you LOVE Estate Jewelry?

We do too! We always have a selection of gently used Estate Jewelry in our store. With the high price of gold, more and more people are seeing the wisdom of buying used jewelry. BONUS - almost all of our Estate jewelry is on consignment from local people, so when you buy a piece from us, EVERY penny of your purchase is local.

Do you LOVE Great Deals on Jewelry

Yes indeed. We have an great bargain section of jewelry that are 50% off their original price. These are all new items and they come from two places. First we sell Old Friends - jewelry that has been in the store too long. Secondly, Cliff loves to find deals from a couple of our favorite vendors. He waits until the mark them down at least 50% and then snatches them us and passes the savings along to you.
