Fortymile Gold Workshop

Bought a gold nugget and although the price is quite steep, it does come from a family mile and you know it supports local. The gold designs aren't really my style but there wasnt much for mens jewelry. Definitely a great experience, the owner is so friendly and kind and knowledgeable! A great place to get custom jewelry done too. She has some HUGE natural nuggets for sale which I'd have highly considered buying if they were cheaper.

Definitely the best gold and jewelry shop in Dawson! No aggressive salesmanship, just professional service and quality gold. Leslie, the owner and designer, gets gold from her family mine and other local sources. I had it in my mind to get a gold nugget in Dawson and within minutes of arriving, Leslie helped me find the perfect one. Then she helped design the perfect necklace, adding a loop to the nugget and 2 gold-embedded glass beads on either side. We went around the corner to see the show at Palace Grand Theatre and when we came back, the necklace was already complete. I love it so much!!

It is a wonderful shop filled with one of a kind pieces. I wanted something to remember our trip which was unique to the Yukon. Gold was the obvious choice. I had Leslie make a small gold nugget into a tie tack for me. The nugget, which she had many to choose from, came from Kirkland Creek and the post from the family mine. It was quiet so she made it up for me on the spot in the workshop /store/ art gallery. I like having something to remember the trip and that has a story with it. I recommend a visit even if just to see the pieces and how she makes them.

A not to miss shop for a true Dawson experience. Beautiful authentic jewelry from their local gold mine and cool antique beads. Interesting art and the owner was super fun, friendly and had tons of time to tell us stories and share her experiences. This is not a tourist trap, this is the real deal. A must see in Dawson!
