Tahoe Shopping: Jewelry

Some things just go perfectly together: love and jewelry, wine and roses, wine and cheese, wining and dining. This Truckee business has discovered another ideal pairing – wine and jewelry. It would be easy to pass by Bluestone Jewelry in downtown Truckee if you weren't in the market for a ring, bracelet or another beautiful pieces of jewelry. But don’t let that stop you from popping into the jewelry store for the wine and artwork. In the back of the store, you’ll find a wine bar and an impressive selection of wine with a particularly stellar array from the nearby Sierra Foothills region, known for its hearty zinfandels as well as exceptional red blends, some of them even winning prestigious awards. If you like wine, jewelry, wall artwork and dogs, Bluestone Jewelry & Wine is your kind of place. The friendly team members of this family-owned and -operated store will make you feel at ease and at home.
