Jewellery Store in Coquitlam
Vanhess Jewellery is inside Coquitlam Centre at 2929 Barnet Highway, a real walk-in showroom with an on-site goldsmith, full mall hours seven days a week, and 239+ five-star Google reviews.
Vanhess Jewellery is a real jewellery store in Coquitlam, not a pop-up counter, not an appointment-only studio, and not a chain that ships your repairs to an off-site trade shop. We’re inside Coquitlam Centre at Unit 2424, 2929 Barnet Highway, with our goldsmith working at the bench, past commissions on display, and full mall hours seven days a week. Walk in, talk to a real jeweller, and watch the work happen on-site.
We have 239+ five-star Google reviews and top-three Google rankings for “jewelry coquitlam” and “coquitlam centre jewelry stores.” Whether you need a battery and a clasp fixed, a ring resized before the weekend, an insurance appraisal, or a custom engagement ring designed from scratch, it all happens here at our Coquitlam bench.
What you can do at our Coquitlam store
Everything is handled in-house by our own goldsmiths, your pieces never leave the shop overnight in a courier bag.
- Jewellery repair: soldering, re-tipping, chain and clasp repair, laser welding for heat-sensitive stones. Free written estimates, most work in 3 to 10 business days.
- Ring resizing: up or down in gold, platinum, palladium, and silver, including soldered wedding sets. Many simple sizings done same-week.
- Jewellery appraisals: written replacement-value appraisals for insurance, estates, and probate, prepared on-site.
- Custom design: bespoke engagement rings, wedding bands, and heirloom redesigns drawn, modelled, and hand-finished at our bench.
- Engagement rings: ready-to-buy and made-to-order, natural and lab-grown diamonds, with honest pricing and GIA-graded stones.
Why Coquitlam shops with us
Coquitlam is one of the most culturally diverse cities in BC, per Statistics Canada figures summarised on Coquitlam’s demographic profile, Mandarin, Korean, Cantonese, and Persian are each spoken as a mother tongue by more than 5% of residents. We work in those languages most weeks, on everything from Korean paebaek gold to Chinese tea-ceremony pieces to Persian sofreh aghd jewellery. Burquitlam, the city’s south end, has been described by CBC as a hub for Korean-Canadians.
Buying from a local independent matters here. The Canadian Federation of Independent Business reported (October 2023) that more than 9 in 10 Canadians value having small businesses in their community, yet only 13% mostly shop at small businesses. We’re the small, local, accountable jeweller Coquitlam couples and families actually come back to, the reviews speak to it.
Getting here
We’re a two-minute walk from Coquitlam Central Station on the Millennium Line, with direct trains from Vancouver, Burnaby, Port Moody, Burquitlam, and Lougheed Town Centre. The West Coast Express also stops at Coquitlam Central with peak-hour service from Port Moody, Pitt Meadows, Maple Ridge, and downtown Vancouver. Driving, we’re right off the Barnet Highway / Lougheed Highway interchange with thousands of free mall parking stalls. The store details and a live map are at the bottom of this page.
Questions we hear from Coquitlam customers
Do I need an appointment, or can I just walk in?
Just walk in during mall hours: Sundays 11 to 6, Monday to Wednesday 10 to 7, Thursday to Friday 10 to 9, Saturdays 10 to 7. For a focused custom-design consultation we suggest booking ahead so we can set aside bench time and pull stones for you to compare.
Do you do repairs in-house or send them out?
Everything is done in-house at our Coquitlam bench: resizing, soldering, stone setting, polishing, and appraisals. Your piece never leaves the shop overnight. That matters most for heirlooms and sentimental pieces you’d rather not hand to a courier.
Do you repair watches?
No, we don’t offer watch repair. We’re a fine-jewellery workshop: rings, chains, gold, platinum, and gemstone pieces. For watch servicing we’re happy to point you to a dedicated watchmaker.
What’s the closest SkyTrain station?
Coquitlam Central, a two-minute walk away, on the Millennium Line and West Coast Express.
Is there free parking at Coquitlam Centre?
Yes. Coquitlam Centre has thousands of free mall parking stalls, and our storefront at Unit 2424 is a short walk from the main entrances closest to the Barnet Highway side.
Do you offer free consultations for custom rings?
Yes. The first consultation for a custom engagement ring, wedding band, or heirloom redesign is free, with no obligation to order. We’ll talk budget, metal, and stone options at the bench before you commit to anything.
Can you match an existing wedding band or ring set?
Yes. We regularly craft matching or complementary bands for rings bought elsewhere, measuring the existing piece on-site so the metal tone, width, and profile line up.
How long does a written insurance appraisal take?
Most single-piece appraisals are ready in a few business days. We examine and photograph the piece on-site and provide a written replacement-value report you can hand directly to your insurer.
Do you buy back or trade in old gold jewellery?
Yes, we weigh and assess gold, platinum, and diamond pieces on the spot and can apply the value toward a new or custom piece, or pay out directly.
