Wanted to write a short review of my experience with rhodium dipping at Shane''s Jewelry on Broxton in Westwood/UCLA. KCoursolle had used them previously for rhodium and had given me their name quite a long time ago. I called ahead of time and found that they do rhodium on site on Fridays and Saturdays. It depends on how dirty your ring is, but you can pick it up on the same day if you drop it off on one of those days (very dirty rings can have a long cleaning process) - otherwise you can drop it off earlier in the week and pick it up after it has been done. I actually took it on a Friday evening after work (extremely close to their closing time) expecting to leave it overnight and pick it up the next day. To my surprise (and without my even asking) they did it quite quickly and efficiently for me while I waited! I found the staff to be very friendly and no-pressure. I liked how the store has skylights to allow daylight into the store. The saleslady had a gorgeous EC that was absolutely to die for and they had a lot of beautiful items to look at while I waited and chatted.
They seemed to have a very diverse array of items including some smaller fun wearable items that are likely more affordable for a college student (given they are located on campus!) or for for a nice little treat type gift (not meaning they are cheap looking, just meaning they are smaller and could potentially make fun everyday pieces to add to a collection!)
Overall I was very pleased and will definitely plan on returning not just for rhodium dipping, but also to look for (and likely purchase!) nice little baubles.
