24 Reviews for Pandora Jewelry
Cute female, artsy type, with a sense of adventure seeks a strong personality with a quirky side. You should be unique and clever, and I'll be loyal and charmed. I like long slow walks downtown, finding great little places to take my breath away. You should be just that type of place, holding my gaze in the palm of your hand. It'll be love at first sight. You just be you, Pandora, that's all I need you to be.

I discovered this little gem years ago as I was stumbling out of a drunken breakfast at the old watercourse. I'll be the first to admit that I'm far too easily impressed with anything (boys, the grass, my dog, seriously anything) when I'm drunk, so when I came back for a sober visit, I was expecting it to fall far lower than my drunken experience would lead me to believe. Not so, Pandora! If anything, I was more in love with it sober...which is a feat I've yet to accomplish with much else.
Whether I'm going in to find cute little thank you notes, my very favorite apron in the whole world, or a super last minute gift, it's the perfect place.
I have been going to a lot of weddings lately, and I absolutely refuse to purchase anything off of one of those god-awful gift registries. Thankfully, Pandora has allowed me to purchase cute tasteful gifts without having to ride my bike to Bed Bath and Freaking Beyond for a mind numbing trip around the store where I end up finding three forks and a bathmat that I somehow have to wrap tastefully. I adore you Pandora!

They carry a gum called ORGASGum. Sweet.

I love going in to this shop for one reason: the cards. I laugh my face off reading the unique and campy cards that they stock. Most of the good ones are birthday cards, so you should go and stock up!
They have a lot of other great stuff too, but every time I go to buy someone a gift I end up finding twelve things that should be mine instead. I bought a really cool metal wall hanging with a drawing of a bird on it for $12. Oh and a bucket of grow your own garden for a friend. Walked out with a hilarious birthday card about my friend being a slut too. She's not really we just like to pretend we think the other one is a slut, so I found the perfect card there.
Their jewelry is beautiful, but I tend not to spend $50 for stuff like that so I usually don't buy it. But they always have a few things on display that are under $20.
Also I like the people that work there. Being wary of people at boutique shops in hipster neighborhoods, these ladies are surprisingly friendly and genuinely happy that you came into their store.

I had to exercise every bit of restraint I could muster when I went into this store to buy my friend a birthday present. I instantly saw about 19 things that I wanted to buy. Their purses in particular had me feeling lust in my heart for an inanimate object.
I am a total freak for knick knacks and brick-a-brack and this store could feed my need for chochkis for years into the future.
Plus, this is by far the nicest staff I have ever met. One of them actually offered me a chocolate chip cookie from a batch that she had made the night before!
If I could give this store 6 stars, I would.

I love this store.
As others have mentioned, the staff here is wonderful. For the past couple of years they've held a sugar skull decorating contest around Halloween time. The winner gets a $100 gift card to the store.
My mom, my daughter(Olivia), and I all decided to enter the first year. We called all our friends and asked them to go down and vote for Olivia's skull which was named "Danger in the Shape of Three," a genius moniker she came up with for her Skull Island-esque creation.
So a few days before the winner was announced, we went in the store to look around. Olivia spots a cute little kitty cat messenger bag and tells me that if she wins she definitely wants this bag.
Sure enough, a couple nights later, we get a call at home saying that Olivia has won the contest! She was ecstatic! She couldn't wait to go down and pick up her bag. So we go down there and the employees are so excited for her that she'd won, even though some of them had also entered beautiful skulls into the contest as well.
We walked over to where we'd seen the messenger bag, but alas, it was no longer there. Olivia was pretty bummed out until....the owner walked out with it in her hand, saved especially for Olivia! She had overheard us talking before and had set it aside for her. Awesome. Nothing like making a 9 year old's week : )
And if this weren't enough, I have gotten so many cute things here myself. Lovely little owl tea set, panda bear mugs, cool purses. The list goes on.
Best gift shop in Denver, hands down.

Although the name suggests it's a jewelry store, Pandora sells a whole lot more than that. It's a great shop for finding the perfectly random gift or unique greeting card for your friends with a sense of humor + good taste. Their selections change regularly, so you never know what they'll have in the store from one month to the next. It's always fun to go in and browse for nothing in particular. It also shares the block with Buffalo Exchange (if you're looking to do some clothes shopping) and City O' City (if you need a bite + a bev).

Hands down, my favorite store in Denver. It's kitschy, it's quirky, it's unique, and it's fun. Pandora is the perfect place to buy a non-homogenized gift, something everyone else doesn't have, something that doesn't fill the shelves of every Walmart and Target in America. Also the staff is friendly and the overall location is good. What's not to love?
My only gripe is the parking situation (13th avenue, meters only) and the fact that everything isn't dirt cheap so I can't buy the whole damn store. I seriously only allow myself to go in once or twice a year. It's that great, people.

Stephanie, the owner, is the coolest! Not only is each and every employee totally friendly and chill, the shop carries quite an array of nifty gifts, killer jewelry and hilarious items. Pandora also carries the Denver Roller Dolls calendar as well as other locally produced stuff. Oh and they also carry stick on mustaches, because everybody needs at least one of those!

Great place to buy gifts or a little something for yourself. The jewelry is beautiful or fun or funky. Lots of fun accessories and baby stuff and stationery (my weakness).
We had a great time browsing, and we found exactly what we came for: a cool compact mirror as a gift. The prices were quite reasonable, too!
Yay for Pandora!

I have a running joke that one day I'm going to start a store called "Things Tiffany Likes" and it's going to be full of the most random stuff. This store could also be called Pandora Jewelry though because I pretty much love everything in Pandora.
They have tons of great gifts (for your friends or yourself) including lots of jewelry (duh), but they also have things like retro aprons, purses, super cute umbrellas, strange toys, sunglasses and books. Plus they have the best selection of cards for any occasion that I've found in Denver.
I'm actually a regular at Pandora - the staff all know me there. Whether that's a testament to how awesome they are or how much of my paycheck ends up being spent there, well that's anyone's guess really.

To echo pretty much all the other posts on here, Pandora Jewelry is great.
I love buying gifts for my mom, aunt, sister [insert pretty much any girl] here. They always have a great variety of locally-made jewelry, greeting cards, journals, toys, anything.
I found a gorgeous swarovski crystal necklace for my sister as a "Congrats, you're almost married!" present and will be returning soon to find some jewelry for the same type of present for my cousin.
Excellent, excellent store.

This is the best store in Denver for buying little gifty things for birthdays and Christmas or for buying yourself something shiny when you need something shiny. The staff is adorable and you can tell that they love the stuff in the shop as much as their customers. They're always super excited about every item and even seem to always know who made it, where it came from, and why it's so very special. I've never walked out of this shop empty handed!

Pandoras is incredible. I love love love the political items. Then there are the purses which are so cool and unique. I know for a fact I will never run into anyone with the same bag again.
The greeting cards are wonderful too...i must have spent 30 minutes just reading through all of them. The candles I got were sublime and the best part was the girl working was very nice. So many times when you go to these hip little stores the workers are packing the tude, but not here.

The employees are so nice. They smile and welcome you in. Great choice of intereting jewelry, candles, novelty cookware, and journals. My favorite part of the store is the vintage postcards and cards in the front of the store. The postcards are only 90 cents. They also have a small baby section and a section designated for Buddha items (who knew?) Be sure to check out the 50% and 25% off tables for some great deals.

Have you ever found yourself pondering where to find a trifecta of ninja gifts or perhaps a plush armadillo handbag? Me too.
Pandora is AWESOME. They have fantastic everything. From the sizeable collection of Day of the Dead sugar skulls to incredible postcards to handmade knitted scarves and mittens...I could go on for a long, long time. It's eclectic and lovely. The girls who work there are unique, helpful, and have great senses of humor. If Archie McPhee and Etsy had a baby, it would look like Pandora's Jewelry..
I would live in that store if I could. I regret that I don't live closer.
Be sure to check out the middle of the store where they have a big display of their sales items - you can find some neat stuff hidden within it!

List of things I bought at Pandora:
- Poseable Jesus Action Figure (with gliding action)
- Slang Flashcards (with words like: dank, hater, and ninja skills)
- Donkey Cigarette Disposer (the cigarette comes out of his um... ass)
- Letter 'T' Scrabble Piece Necklace (for my favorite ex-girlfriend)
- Second set of Slang Flashcards (because the first set was so funny)
This place is great, and the clerks are very nice and fun to talk to. I mean, when you walk in after closing time a week before Christmas and pick up a softball-sized gold Christmas tree bulb that's so heavy the fishing line you're holding it by slips through your fingers into the basket below, breaking several other gold bulbs, and the attendants just laugh at your surprised expression and tell you about the time they knocked over the necklace rack and had to spend a whole day untangling the damn things, who WOULDN'T buy several ridiculous gifts from their excellent selection of funny, charming, kitschy nicknacks?

Pandora is always the first place I go to get a gift for *anyone*. Whether it's my grandmother or my subversive revolutionary friends, I can always find something: craft kits, amazing jewelry, beautiful housewares, and loads of eclectica.

I just love this place to death! :) They sell all the anti-Republican, anti-a-hole progressive cards, postcards, gifts, toys, funky fun jewelry and "bad girl" type gifts.
They are just adorable behind the counter too, but need to be a little less shy. However, there are like 10 friends I buy things there for like on an ultra-excessive basis.
If you are progressive, hate Bush and therefore are a decent quality person, SHOP THERE NOW! :)

I go here with my girls every so often. I don't like shopping much, and I don't like doing the girly-jewelry thing too often.. but sometimes, once in a long while.. it definitley has it's place. And Pandora is the place to have this place.
I always get some nifty new trinket of some sort when I go in. Some things are pricey, but if you're doing it to spoil yourself once in a blue moon then I say it's ok. They have all sorts of beautiful, and sometimes kind of goofy jewelry. Lots of stuff for peircings, and to further it they even have a baby section and stationary (fancy journals and gift cards) area. You can even get chinese lanterns here.. woot!
This funky little place is full of cutie niche things. The jewelry is beautiful and well priced. You can buy postcards and gifts and will definitely need to get something for yourself before you go as well.
A section that I really like, and that has come in handy recently, is the baby area in the back of the store. Whether you want your baby to look hip or carry a message of peace, this is the place to look.
The totes they have are also quite cute and well priced. Basically, this is a great place to find a gift for any lady in your life. Also, and whoooo hoooo, it is an independent business!

With most items ringing in at under $50, this innovative, up-to-the-minute trendy boutique touts all sorts of bargain hunter's treasures, including gorgeous hand-sewn fabric jewelry boxes, cool wallets and handbags. There's also a groovy book section, lots of flirty gifts for your best girlfriends, and a great selection of whimsy costume jewelry that looks like it costs a lot more than what you'll pay.

This is an excellent one-stop gift shop--sorry that I did not buy you a gift the last time I was here, Amanda, I know your birthday has passed.
Pandora gifts will immediately titillate your senses as you enter the parlor because the godly scent raising from the vents is not Nag Champa, but it is....sweet and majestic.
You will surely find at least 1 half hour of time browsing through the colory and international section of "fun" knick knacks, books, jewelry. Some of the books are really interesting and may retain your attention for even longer. As may the sparkling jewel of a hanging earring holder. If I was a nice person, I would have bought this for Amanda.
