Jewellery store Richmond Hill, 9 km along Highway 7
Richmond Hill is our nearest large neighbour: about 9 km east along Highway 7 brings you to Lucio's Gold, a family-owned jewellery store Richmond Hill families already know by road.
The jewellery store Richmond Hill neighbours can reach in 9 km
Richmond Hill and Markham share a border and a main road. From the middle of Richmond Hill, the shop at 7800 Woodbine Ave is about 9 km away, roughly a Highway 7 drive east. That makes it the closest of the big cities we serve, with the shortest trip on this site.
Highway 7 runs across Richmond Hill and into Markham, and it is the road most people use. Leslie Street, Bayview Avenue and Yonge Street all cross it, so almost any starting point has an easy way onto it.
Because the distance is short, many Richmond Hill customers visit twice: once for a first conversation, and once to collect or adjust. That rhythm suits custom work, where the second visit is often the best one.
Call (905) 475-1702 if you want to talk first. No question is too small, and a quick one often saves a trip.
Weekend traffic on Highway 7 is lighter early in the day. If you can, aim for the morning, when the road is clear and we can give you the most attention. Call ahead and we will tell you what to expect, with no pressure to decide.
A neighbour should not need a map. Highway 7 east, and you are nearly there.
From Langstaff to Oak Ridges: where our customers live
Richmond Hill stretches from Langstaff in the south to Oak Ridges in the north, with Yonge Street as its spine. Mill Pond, Crosby, Richvale, Jefferson, Westbrook and rural Richmond Hill each have a distinct feel and a different drive to Woodbine. Pick your corner and follow the route that suits it.
Langstaff sits near Highway 7 and Yonge, close to Hillcrest Mall's side of the city and the Langstaff GO station. It is the shortest trip to us, and many drivers cross Highway 7 directly.
Crosby and Mill Pond are older areas near the heart of the city. Mill Pond has a gallery and a park, and Crosby holds the central library and the Richmond Hill Centre for the Performing Arts.
Oak Ridges, in the north, has Lake Wilcox, the Oak Ridges Moraine trails and a wide mix of homes. From there, Leslie Street or Bayview and then Highway 7 is the usual route.
Richvale and Jefferson sit between Yonge and Bathurst. Richvale is known for its enclosed shopping area, and Jefferson backs onto green space. Both reach Highway 7 within minutes, which suits a quick visit after work.
- Langstaff: Highway 7 straight east.
- Richvale and Crosby: Yonge to Highway 7, then east.
- Mill Pond and Jefferson: Bathurst or Yonge south to Highway 7.
- Westbrook and rural Richmond Hill: Elgin Mills, then Leslie or Bayview.
- Oak Ridges: Yonge or Bayview south, then Highway 7.
Engagement rings Richmond Hill proposals begin with
Engagement rings Richmond Hill couples design with us start with a long conversation, not a catalogue. We hand-pick diamonds with the highest-quality cuts, talk through metals and settings, and spend time explaining quality versus cost. You can compare us with anyone, and we hope you will.
Richmond Hill has its own proposal spots. Lake Wilcox at sunset, the grounds of the David Dunlap Observatory, and the trails around Mill Pond each give a ring a different kind of light.
See our overview of custom engagement rings, then use the 3D ring creator to test shapes. It never shows a price, and it sends a brief we can discuss in person.
If you plan to propose outdoors, think about a secure setting and a ring that sits low enough to avoid snags. It will be on her hand for decades, so the first photograph matters less than the thousandth day.
Old Richmond Hill, Mill Pond and the quiet proposal
Richmond Hill's older core around Mill Pond and Yonge Street has a village feel, with heritage homes, a pond, a boardwalk and a small gallery. It suits a quiet proposal and an unfussy ring. A classic design, set with care, usually looks right in a place like this.
Mill Pond Park has a path around the water, a lookout and plenty of mature trees. In autumn the colour is strong, and a ring catches it well. Come and try a few shapes in the shop first, so the moment feels like yours.
The David Dunlap Observatory grounds, now a public park, add open lawns and a famous dome. It is a favourite spot for photographs, which means your ring will be seen in detail.
Think about the era you like. Vintage-inspired settings, milgrain edges and a round or cushion cut suit older streets, and we can show you how those details are made.
Vintage-inspired rings suit these streets well. Our page on vintage engagement rings explains the details that give them their character.
- Mill Pond: autumn colour, a quiet lookout, easy walking.
- Observatory grounds: open lawns, big skies, good photographs.
- Lake Wilcox: summer evenings and the lakeside path.
- Yonge Street: dinner reservations within walking distance.
The Highway 7 straight line
For most of Richmond Hill, the route to Lucio's Gold is a single road. Take Highway 7 east, cross Bayview and Leslie, pass Highway 404, and look for Woodbine Avenue. The 407 runs parallel to the north, and it is a toll road, so check the cost before using it.
Highway 7 has several lanes, bus lanes in places and frequent lights. It is rarely fast at rush hour, but the route is easy to follow and hard to get wrong.
York Region Transit buses run along Highway 7 too, and the Richmond Hill Centre bus terminal near Yonge connects to many routes. It is a simple bus trip if you prefer not to drive.
GO Transit's Richmond Hill line serves the Richmond Hill and Langstaff stations, though trains and our door are on different lines. Plan the last stretch with a bus or a taxi.
- Join Highway 7 east from Yonge or Bayview.
- Continue past Leslie Street and Highway 404.
- Turn toward Woodbine Avenue.
- Arrive at 7800 Woodbine Ave, Markham.
Wedding bands for Richmond Hill couples
Wedding bands Richmond Hill families order from us come in gold, platinum and diamond-set styles, made to sit well with an engagement ring. We talk through width, profile and finish, and we pay attention to how the pair will look decades from now. A band should disappear into your daily life.
Richmond Hill hosts weddings in banquet halls, gardens, places of worship and the occasional golf club. Rings travel through all of them, and they need to be comfortable through a long day.
Our page on wedding bands explains the difference between metals. A wider band feels different from a slender one, and a domed profile sits differently from a flat one.
Ask about stacking. A plain band beside a diamond one is a popular way to build a set over time.
Shopping along Yonge, and the jewellers Richmond Hill offers
Hillcrest Mall at Yonge and Carrville, the Richvale shopping area and the stretch of Yonge Street through the old downtown all have jewellery counters. We encourage a look. Then visit the shop for an unhurried conversation about custom pieces, diamonds and repairs, and compare what you saw.
A first look at a mall counter gives you vocabulary and a sense of style, and comparing freely is the smart way to start. Note the shapes you liked and the ones you did not.
Then bring the notes to Woodbine. We spend time on cut, colour, clarity and carat weight, and we are happy to place two stones side by side. Read our loose diamonds page first if you like.
We do not rush anyone. Among the jewellers Richmond Hill shoppers compare, we hope to be the one who explains most patiently.
Browse at Hillcrest, ask at Woodbine.
What to bring for a short drive
Because the drive is short, you can arrive with very little. A photo, an old piece, or a half-formed idea is plenty. If you have a ring size, bring it. If you do not, we can talk about how to find one quietly, and the first visit still gives you something useful to take home.
A first visit does not have to end in a decision, and nobody will press you. Many people come to look at stones, ask a handful of questions and leave with a clearer plan.
If you are shopping for someone else, bring a ring they already wear. It tells us size, metal colour and taste at once. Our journal explains how to find ring size without giving the game away.
If you plan a repair, wrap the piece in tissue and carry it in a small box. A loose stone should never travel in a pocket.
Jewelry repair Richmond Hill drivers can combine with errands
Jewelry repair Richmond Hill households need can be done at our Markham shop, a short drive from home. We repair rings, necklaces and bracelets, resize rings, repair watches and replace batteries. Bring the piece and we will examine it with you, explain the problem and describe the fix.
Because the shop is only 9 km away, a repair drop-off easily fits into an errand run along Highway 7. Many people pair it with grocery shopping or a stop at a Markham restaurant, so the errand never feels like a detour.
Read about jewellery repair for what to ask. We do not quote turnaround before seeing the work.
A ring that no longer fits is easy to put off. We resize rings, and our ring resizing page explains the options.
Watch repair Richmond Hill owners ask about is usually a battery or a strap. We repair watches and replace batteries at 7800 Woodbine Ave, and you can read about watch battery replacement first.
Chains deserve special mention. A thin necklace that has been worn daily for years can have weak links long before it breaks, and a short visit may save it.
Gifts and keepsakes for Richmond Hill families
We also see Richmond Hill customers for gifts, not only rings. Necklaces, bracelets, rings and watches suit graduations, new babies, anniversaries and long careers. Ask what is on the counter and we will show you pieces that fit the person who will wear them.
Sterling silver and pearls make lovely gifts for a first piece of fine jewellery. See silver and pearl for care notes and styles.
A gold chain is a simple gift that lasts, and weight and link style matter. See gold jewellery before you visit.
We do not name watch brands online. Visit the shop and we will show you what is on the counter.
A strand of pearls is a traditional gift for a daughter or a bride, and one she can hand down later. Our notes on pearl necklaces cover lengths and care.
