Gasper’s Jewelers

447 Alvarado St., Monterey (831) 375-5332, gaspersjewelers.com

For almost 30 years, Gasper’s in downtown Monterey has been the go-to stop for jewelry shopping and everything that accompanies it: rings, pendants, earrings and more, some good old-fashioned watch repair and maybe even a dreamy gaze or two at the engagement set collection. Gasper’s also happens to be an authorized dealer of Lladro figurines, a decor feature for travelers, extraterrestrial or otherwise.
