Down Highway 404 to a jewelry store made for Newmarket
Lucio's Gold is a family-owned jewelry store Newmarket residents can reach by driving south, about 33 km. We design custom rings, make wedding bands and repair jewellery, by appointment.
From Davis Drive to Woodbine: the southbound drive
Newmarket is about 33 km north of Lucio's Gold at 7800 Woodbine Ave, Markham, in a straight line. Most drivers join Highway 404 near Davis Drive or Mulock Drive and head south to Highway 7, then turn to Woodbine Avenue. Yonge Street is the slower alternative. Check traffic before you go.
Newmarket has the simplest route of any town on our list. The 404 runs south from the edge of town almost to our door. Our shop sits near the 404 and 407 interchange, so you rarely leave a major highway until the last minutes.
Rush hour changes the story, since the 404 is a busy commuter road. We do not publish drive times. A midday appointment usually gives a calmer drive, and we are happy to suggest a time on the phone.
Highway 404 is also how many York Region residents reach the 407 and the east side of Markham. If you already commute south, the trip to our shop will feel familiar. If you do not, give yourself a little extra time on your first visit.
Some people from Newmarket like to pair the trip with another errand in Markham or Richmond Hill. A single southbound run with two stops is easier to justify than two separate drives.
- Take Highway 404 south from Davis Drive or Mulock Drive.
- Continue past the 407 interchange to Highway 7.
- Turn toward Woodbine Avenue and look for number 7800.
- Use Yonge Street only if you want a slower, local drive.
A heritage Main Street and the jewellery you keep
Newmarket's Main Street is part of a heritage conservation district, running between Water Street and Davis Drive. It is a small-town street with older buildings and local shops. People who love that character often want a ring with some of the same feeling: a detail, a pattern or a vintage nod that makes it theirs.
Bring an idea. It might be a filigree pattern, a rope edge or a sketch from a grandparent's ring. Our vintage engagement rings page shows the older looks we discuss, and we say which details survive translation into metal.
Our custom jewellery page describes how a sketch becomes a finished piece.
Main Street South runs from Water Street at the south end to Davis Drive at the north end, and it keeps a small-town commercial feel. Walking it on a Saturday afternoon is a pleasant way to look at older shopfronts. You can then picture how an older style might look on a hand today.
Many people discover they love a particular era, such as Art Deco angles or Victorian scrollwork. We cannot recreate every detail, and we say so. We can show what works in modern settings and what is better saved for a photograph on the wall.
Engagement rings Newmarket couples design from scratch
Engagement rings Newmarket couples choose here can be fully custom. We hand-pick diamonds with the highest-quality cuts and take time on quality versus cost. You can sketch a design in the 3D ring creator first, then visit us to see stones in person. We recommend you shop around and compare as well.
Newmarket has places that suit a proposal. Fairy Lake, a mill pond created long ago when the river was dammed, offers a lakeside walk in Fairy Lake Park. The riverside paths and downtown streets give you a quiet evening setting too. Then comes the ring she will wear for decades, designed with you rather than picked off a tray.
Think about the setting of the ring itself. A low bezel is calm for an active life. A raised claw setting lifts the diamond to catch light. Read our engagement ring styles guide for a quick look at the choices.
The 3D ring creator sends us your brief and shows no price. We reply with a written quote.
Newmarket is also home to Southlake Regional Health Centre, and many people there work shifts, wear gloves or wash their hands constantly. A ring for that life needs secure prongs and smooth surfaces. Tell us about your work, and we will talk through settings that suit it.
We see no reason to hurry. If you want to visit, think, compare elsewhere and return, that is how a good decision gets made. Come back with more questions, and come and try a few settings on your own hand.
We supply lab-grown and natural diamonds, and we write jewellery appraisals when you want a value on paper.
A heritage street teaches patience. A good ring does too.
Newmarket neighbourhoods and the roads they use
Newmarket spreads along Yonge Street and Davis Drive, with Upper Canada Mall at the Yonge and Davis corner and the GO station near Main Street. Southlake Regional Health Centre is a landmark in the central part of town. Where you start affects which on-ramp to use, but all routes reach the 404 south.
Upper Canada Mall, opened in 1974, pulled commercial life west from Main Street. Today, shoppers have mall stores on one side and heritage shops on the other. You can compare both before you decide.
Neighbourhoods in the south and east of town sit nearer the 404. Western neighbourhoods reach it by Davis Drive or Mulock Drive. We have not tested every street, so use a live map.
Newmarket GO station sits near Main Street and Davis Drive, but it serves the Barrie line and does not run to our corner of Markham. Most visitors drive.
Our shop is near Highway 7 and Woodbine Avenue. From the 404 you can reach it in a few turns, which is helpful if you are visiting for the first time. Call if you want directions from the exit you use.
Wedding bands Newmarket couples can try side by side
Wedding bands Newmarket couples order from us are custom. We start with how you live and what metals suit your skin and work. Bring the engagement ring if the band must sit flush against it. Both partners are welcome at the appointment, and you can book an appointment or simply start with photos.
Think about how the band fits with the ring. A pronounced solitaire may need a gentle curve in the band. A low-set ring pairs well with a straight band.
Ask us about gold, platinum and stone-set options. Our wedding bands page covers the choices. Our white gold versus platinum guide explains a common question.
Engraving a date or a short phrase inside the band is a gentle way to make it personal. Ask in store about what is practical for the metal and the width. We explain limits plainly.
If a partner cannot visit, bring a ring they already wear so we can read the size and the width they like. Photos of their hands help too. We can start the conversation from there.
Jewellery repair Newmarket families can bring on the way south
We repair rings, necklaces, bracelets and watches at our Markham shop, and we resize rings. If you are looking for jewellery repair Newmarket offers close to home, compare options, then bring us the pieces you want handled with care. We also write jewellery appraisals. We do not publish prices or turnaround times on the website.
Common jobs include a loose stone, a flattened prong, a snapped chain or a clasp that will not hold. Tell us on the phone what you see. We will say whether to bring it in, and explain plainly what the piece needs.
Our jewellery repair page lists what we handle. Many visitors bring a handful of items on one trip, which makes the drive worthwhile.
It helps to bring every loose part. A tiny stone that has fallen out can sometimes be reset if it has been kept. Put it in an envelope and bring it with the ring.
For jewelry repair Newmarket families can plan one southbound trip around several pieces. If a watch is among them, we handle watch repair Newmarket owners need, such as a battery.
- A ring that spins or feels tight.
- A stone that rattles when you shake the ring.
- A necklace that tangles or has a broken link.
- A bracelet clasp that opens by itself.
Gifts from Newmarket: gold, silver and watches
We make and sell necklaces, bracelets, rings and watches, and we repair watches, including battery replacement. Newmarket families shop for graduations, anniversaries and retirements. Ask about gold chains, sterling silver and pearls, or a watch. We have not listed brands online, so ask in store.
Our gold jewellery page describes chains, bracelets and earrings. If you want to check whether an old piece is real gold, read our gold authenticity guide first.
A gift is easiest when you know a size. Check a ring size before you come, and ask us how to measure a wrist for a bracelet.
Silver and pearls suit gifts where you want something elegant without a large outlay. We discuss each piece in store, and we do not name prices online. Ask us what is in the shop on the day you visit.
For everyday wear, our silver chains page shows the lengths and links we discuss. For her wedding day, see our women's wedding bands.
Comparing stores before you drive from Newmarket
Compare shops in Newmarket first. Upper Canada Mall and the Main Street businesses give you a quick sense of styles and price. Then visit us with questions. We encourage you to shop around, and we spend time explaining quality versus cost so you know what each choice buys.
Take notes at each shop. Record the cut, the metal, how the stone is held and who will repair the piece later. The same questions asked three times show you who explains best.
Our loose diamonds page lists points to ask about when you see a stone. It is a useful companion for any comparison.
Be wary of any shop that discourages comparison. We invite it. If you leave us and buy elsewhere after learning what to look for, that is a fair result, and we hope you will call us if you ever need a repair or a custom piece.
Jewellers Newmarket shoppers can compare near Main Street
Jewellers Newmarket residents can visit include shops at Upper Canada Mall and along Main Street. Visit them and compare. Lucio's Gold is a family-owned Markham shop with more than 30 years serving the GTA, and we encourage you to shop around and ask the same questions in every store.

Then call (905) 475-1702 and plan the drive down Highway 404.
Watch repair Newmarket owners can ask about before driving south

Give us the symptom, the age of the watch and whether water or a knock came first. We can often say by phone whether it sounds like something we look at.

The jewelry store Newmarket visitors reach is in Markham
