About

Michele's Estate Jewelry and Silver is a family-run business from Austin, Texas, trading since 1975, and its Vail shop at The Lodge at Vail opened in 2012. It specializes in fine estate jewelry, watches and sterling silver flatware and hollowware, which makes it one of the few places in the village to look at antique pieces rather than new collections.

It suits collectors hunting a signed piece, couples who want an engagement ring with some history, and anyone who simply likes looking at Art Deco workmanship up close. The Vail location is seasonal, so call before making a special trip.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Michele's in Vail?
At The Lodge at Vail, 160 East Gore Creek Drive, in Vail Village near Gondola One. It is the Vail location of a family-run Austin business; the head office is in Austin, Texas.
What are the hours?
The Vail shop is seasonal and does not publish its hours online, so call (970) 949-7717 before making a special trip. Hours posted on map sites may not be current. For reference only, the Austin store is open Monday to Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and closed weekends; those are not the Vail hours.
What does Michele's sell?
Fine estate jewelry, watches, and sterling silver flatware and hollowware. The jewelry is organized by era (Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, Retro, midcentury and vintage) alongside modern diamond jewelry and Native American pieces; the silver side covers flatware sets and hollowware such as serving pieces, goblets, candelabras and tea sets. Estate stock is one-of-a-kind and changes as pieces sell.
Which designers can I find?
Signed pieces from houses including Cartier, Van Cleef & Arpels, Tiffany & Co., Buccellati, Bulgari, Chaumet, Chopard, David Webb, David Yurman, Marco Bicego, Mikimoto, Oscar Heyman, Roberto Coin and Rolex, among others. Because the stock is estate inventory, availability changes as pieces sell.
Is there anything under $1,000?
Yes. Michele's keeps a dedicated under-$1,000 selection, both in the shop and as a category on its website.
Does Michele's buy jewelry, and how does selling work?
Yes. Michele's buys gold, silver, platinum, diamonds, gemstones, watches and coins, and pays outright; it does not take consignments. No appointment is needed for an evaluation: bring items in, or email photos and a description for a remote evaluation (shipped evaluations are agreed by email first; Michele's pays shipping and insures the items). Evaluations are free, and if both sides agree, payment is direct and instant. The Austin store is the buying specialist, so call the Vail shop at (970) 949-7717 to ask what it takes in on site.
Can I buy a piece I saw online?
Yes. Use the "Interested in this piece?" inquiry button on the item's page on michelessilver.com (include your email and phone number), email the shop, or call. Many pieces can be shipped nationwide; there is no online checkout.
Does Michele's offer jewelry or silver repair?
Yes, at the Austin store: jewelry repair and silver repair are Austin-location services. The Vail shop does not publish a repair service, so call (970) 949-7717 to ask how a repair is handled from Vail.
