Jewelry Store Near North Miami: Franky Diamonds

North Miami's city hall is on Northeast 125th Street, east of I-95. The showroom is southwest of that pin, on the other side of the expressway, at the Northside shopping cluster. Measured from 776 NE 125th Street, North Miami, FL 33161, the drive is about 7.0 miles. Clear-road time is about 14 minutes. The route goes west on 125th Street, the name flipping from Northeast to Northwest as you cross the grid, then south on I-95 for about 2.3 miles. You exit toward NW 81st Street and finish west. The last mile and a half is NW 79th Street to NW 27th Avenue.

A surface-street version that stays on 79th or 119th the whole way can be what a map offers when I-95 is ugly. The measured route above is the one with the 14-minute empty-road time. Use the live map for the ramp. The destination does not change: Unit 506, Northside Shopping Center area. There is no Franky counter on 125th Street, on Biscayne, or in a North Miami strip mall.

Afternoon I-95 between 125th and 79th is a short stretch that still stacks up. If you are leaving North Miami at 5, add time, then send @frankydiamonds a note when you actually exit.

North Miami errands are often a pair of earrings or a light chain, not a ten-carat production. The file supports that. Solid-gold earrings start at $260. Diamond earrings in the file run from $349 to $4,115. Hoops with "hoop" in the name run $270 to $3,295. A puffy heart stud at $325 is a small gold gift, not a diamond solitaire pair, so read the title before you treat it like one.

Chains under $1,000 are real inventory: 25 of the 46 chains in the file sit below that line, starting at $290 for a thin Singapore chain. The first Miami Cuban link, at 1.50mm, is $495. A paperclip at 4mm is $1,080 if you want something flatter than a Cuban. Pendants start at $325. A gold initial necklace is $365. Cursive initials are $390.

None of those prices require a downtown detour. They require the right exit and Unit 506. The collection pages are earrings and chains.

Diamond hoops with a blue stone in the title, and plain gold hoops, sit in the same earring file. Read the stone line. A blue sapphire hoop is not a diamond hoop, even when both are gold. If you only want diamonds, filter for that word before you ask the shop to pull a pair. The drive is short enough to return a pair to the case and look at another, as long as you have not paid. After you pay, the sale is final.

Call 954-504-5640 or message @frankydiamonds with the piece name. Google lists Monday to Saturday, 10 AM to 7 PM, Sunday closed. That is Google's listing. Ask the shop about the day you chose. Same-day depends on a yes that morning and on the piece still being there. House pieces are often one of one.

If you come by train instead of I-95, Northside station is at 3150 NW 79th Street, about 0.4 miles west of the showroom, on the Green Line. From North Miami you may find the drive simpler than a bus-and-train combination. Either way, confirm the door is open before you commit.

Parking at the center is a question for the shop, not a promise here. The station has park-and-ride listed on its Wikipedia page. That lot is the station's.

Insured shipping will send earrings or a chain to a North Miami address. Use that if the 7 miles is annoying, or if you do not want the piece in the car. There is no published local delivery route and no second store east of I-95.

Shipping still needs the right size or length first. All sales are final. A 7-day window covers a manufacturing defect only, and the piece comes back unworn, with tags, packaging, and the receipt. No refunds. If you do not know the hoop diameter she wears, ask her, or buy in person and look at both diameters. Do not guess 12mm versus 20mm from a text message and hope.

Custom initials or a name, if the $365 initial is too plain, follow the usual path: design and exact price before anything is made. No turnaround in days is posted. See custom work.

Lab diamond rings are in the same case, $1,050 to $8,500, E and VS1 on the specs. You can switch the errand from hoops to a pear shape if the person with you wants that. Read the shape notes later. The proposal sequence, ring before location, is here.

Cuban link differences, if the chain conversation gets serious, are on this comparison. The story of the style in this city is here. Saltwater and chlorine, which matter if you wear the new hoops to the bay, are on the beach page.

The shop dates to 2010. The family trade dates to 1990. The line is "We ain't cuttin no corners." The only door is still Unit 506, described on the showroom page. Downtown's building is optional and farther: the district guide.
