Jewellers Markham families know, family-owned on Woodbine
We are the jewellers Markham residents can drive to in minutes: a family-owned shop at 7800 Woodbine Ave, a short hop from Highway 7, Highway 404 and Highway 407.
Jewellers Markham can reach from Woodbine and Highway 7
Lucio's Gold is a family-owned jewellery shop at 7800 Woodbine Ave, Markham, Ontario L3R 2N7, close to Woodbine and Highway 7. Markham is where we work, not a suburb we visit. Every other city page on this site starts from the same front door, and this is it.
Most jewellers in the GTA have a city on the sign and a head office somewhere else. Ours is simpler. The people who talk with you about a diamond are the people who set it, and the shop has been serving the GTA for more than 30 years.
Woodbine Avenue runs north and south through the centre of the city, and our block sits close to the Highway 7 corner. Highway 404 is minutes away, and the 407 passes just to the north. That matters when you are carrying a ring in a pocket and a nervous heartbeat.
Call (905) 475-1702 before you set out and ask a question, or just visit 7800 Woodbine Ave. Ask anything, with no pressure: a first idea, a repair or a long-planned custom piece is welcome.
Same address, same family, and a drive that rarely takes longer than a coffee.
Which Markham neighbourhoods we are closest to
Markham is a patchwork of old villages and planned communities, and most of them are a short drive from Woodbine and Highway 7. Unionville, Milliken, Thornhill, Markham Village, Cornell and the newer Downtown Markham area all sit within the city limits and within easy reach of the shop.
Residents often describe Markham through six long-standing communities: Berczy Village, Cornell, Markham Village, Milliken, Thornhill and Unionville. Thornhill is the unusual one, because it straddles Yonge Street and belongs to both Markham and Vaughan.
The list below is a rough map of how people come to us. Times depend on traffic, so treat the directions as a starting point and call (905) 475-1702 if you want a second opinion on the route.
- Unionville: historic Main Street and Toogood Pond. Take Highway 7 east or west to Woodbine.
- Milliken: the southern edge by Steeles, with its GO station. Go north on Kennedy or McCowan, then Highway 7.
- Thornhill (Markham side): the Yonge Street corridor. Come east along Highway 7 or Steeles.
- Markham Village: the heritage main street. Head west on Highway 7 to Woodbine.
- Cornell: a planned community with a large community centre. Come west on Highway 7, then Woodbine.
- Downtown Markham: newer condos, a cinema and restaurants. It is a short run west along Highway 7.
Wedding rings Markham couples design around a hand
If you are shopping for wedding rings in Markham, we make engagement rings and wedding bands to order and sit with you while you compare metals, widths and settings. We hand-pick the diamonds, choose cuts for their quality, and take the time to explain what drives the cost of a stone.
Engagement rings Markham couples choose and the bands that follow have to live together for decades. We usually start with the engagement ring on the finger, because a wedding band should sit flush against it or curve around it. That one detail decides half the design.
Read our guide to custom wedding bands for metals and profiles, then bring a photo or a sketch if you have one. Gold, platinum and diamond-set bands each wear differently, and we would rather show you than tell you.
Wedding rings Markham couples choose often carry more than one tradition, because many families plan a wedding across two or three cultures. Tell us what matters, and we will build from there, so the rings feel like yours on the day and for decades after.
- Bring the ring you already own so the pair can be matched.
- Think about daily wear: a flat band behaves differently from a domed one.
- Ask about stacking a plain band with a diamond one.
- Bring a photo of a ring you love, even if it is only half right.
Walk in with questions. Leave with a better way to ask them anywhere.
A diamond store in Markham that welcomes comparison
We are a diamond store in Markham that encourages you to shop around. Our diamonds are hand-picked for the highest-quality cuts, and we spend time explaining quality versus cost so you can compare stones elsewhere with confidence. A good decision survives a second opinion.
Cut decides how a stone handles light, which is why we look at it first. Colour, clarity and carat weight follow. The Gemological Institute of America describes these as the 4Cs, and they are the shared language of every serious jeweller.
Browse our notes on loose diamonds before you visit. You can also read about the diamond 4Cs guide on our journal, so the vocabulary is familiar when we place two stones side by side.
Natural or lab-grown is a fair question at any diamond store Markham shoppers visit. We supply both natural and lab-grown diamonds, and we explain how they differ in origin and in how they are valued. Our page on lab-grown diamond rings is a good place to start.
Many people ask us to show engagement rings Markham shoppers have seen elsewhere, so they can compare the same stone side by side. We are glad to do it, and there is no pressure to buy.
Custom jewellery in Markham, from sketch to setting
Custom jewellery in Markham starts with a conversation at our counter, not a catalogue. Bring a sketch, a photo or an heirloom, and we talk through stones, metal and proportions. Expect to review the design, adjust it, and see the shape settle before anything is cast or set.
Some of the best requests begin with a broken piece. A grandmother's pendant, a mismatched earring, a stone that outlived its setting. We can talk about rebuilding it, redesigning it or keeping it as it is.
If you like to see an idea on screen first, try the 3D ring creator. It never shows a price, and it sends a design brief we can discuss with you in person. Our page on custom jewellery design explains how that conversation tends to run.
Custom jewellery Markham customers ask about varies piece by piece, so we do not promise timelines. Ask us when you visit, and we will tell you what to expect for yours.
A custom engagement ring Markham families commission can begin with a single stone and a rough sketch, and we refine the shape together until it feels designed with you.
- Share the idea: a sketch, photos, a stone, or an old piece.
- Choose the metal and the diamonds or gemstones.
- Review the design and adjust the proportions.
- Approve the final piece, then collect it at 7800 Woodbine Ave.
Jewelry repair Markham drop-off, and a note on watches
Jewelry repair Markham customers need is usually a ring, necklace or bracelet, and you can bring it straight to our shop. We also resize rings, repair watches and replace batteries at 7800 Woodbine Ave, and we examine each piece with you first. Many people drop in on the way home along Highway 7.
A repair visit is brief. We examine the piece under light, explain what has failed, and describe the fix in plain words. Turnaround depends on the work, so we do not quote a number before we have held the piece.
For a broken chain or a worn prong, jewellery repair in Markham is often the quickest way to avoid losing a stone.
A ring that has stretched or tightened is a common reason to visit, and we resize rings in the shop. Read about ring resizing before you come.
Watch repair Markham owners ask about most is a stopped battery or a worn strap. We repair watches and replace batteries, and our page on watch battery replacement explains what to expect.
If you want to know what a piece is worth, we write jewellery appraisals too. See jewellery appraisals for what an appraisal covers.
Check your rings once or twice a year by holding them to your ear and tapping gently. A faint rattle often means a loose stone.
Inside a jewellery shop that sells more than rings
Our jewellery shop in Markham also carries necklaces, bracelets, rings and watches alongside the custom engagement rings and wedding bands. Browse gold chains, diamond pendants, sterling silver pieces and pearls, and timepieces. Everything is chosen for how it wears and how it is made.
Not every gift is a proposal, and a jewellery shop Markham families return to should know that. A birthday, a graduation, a first job or a thirtieth anniversary all deserve a piece that fits the person. We help you match metal and weight to the way it will be worn.
Start with gold jewellery if you want chains and bracelets that hold up to daily use. For diamonds in smaller doses, look at diamond jewellery, and for lighter pieces see silver and pearl.
We do not name watch brands on this site. Visit the shop or call (905) 475-1702 and we will tell you what is on the counter.
Engagement rings Markham customers browse here sit beside necklaces, bracelets and watches, so a gift and a proposal can be planned in one visit.
Pair your visit with a Markham afternoon
Markham makes it easy to turn a jewellery visit into an afternoon. Unionville's Main Street, Toogood Pond, Pacific Mall, CF Markville and Downtown Markham are all within the city, so you can compare options, eat, and still reach our door at 7800 Woodbine Ave without a long detour.
Unionville's Main Street is a good walk after a consultation. It is one of the city's historic villages, with small shops and a pond nearby. Markham Village has its own heritage main street if you prefer an older feel.
Pacific Mall near Steeles is a major indoor shopping centre, and CF Markville is one of the larger regional malls in the area. Many people browse both before they decide, and we are comfortable with that.
If you plan a long visit, call (905) 475-1702 first so we can tell you when a quiet moment is likely.
Shop around, then come and talk to us. We would rather you compare.

If you live just beyond Markham
Many customers arrive from the cities next door. Richmond Hill is about 9 km away, Vaughan about 14 km, Scarborough and North York about 14 km each, and Toronto's core about 28 km. The shop serves the whole Greater Toronto Area, and the drive is part of the promise, not a barrier.
Each of those cities has a page that explains the drive from its own neighbourhoods. Start with jewellery in Richmond Hill or Vaughan jewellery if you are coming from the west.
From the south, read about Scarborough, North York and downtown Toronto. The full list lives on our service areas page.
Whichever way you come, the aim is the same: unhurried time with someone who knows diamonds.
