How Does Milkins Jewelry Store in Monroe, MI Stand Out?

Milkins prides itself on customer satisfaction. We feel the greatest sense of accomplishment when our customer is delighted with their experience at Milkins. We believe in an honest approach to selling. Our pricing policy is simple, we offer fine jewelry at fair prices the first time you ask. We do not inflate our prices in order to give you a false “discount”. We also have an In-House Designer: Mr. Burdett Milkins has over won over 20 awards for outstanding jewelry designs. Burdett can create a masterpiece for you that can show off your spirit and soul.
