Pennyweights Re-Opens Saturday With 'Spruced Up' Space

The Elm Street jewelry shop moves back from its temporary location at the end of the week.

If you haven't been able to find Pennyweights in its usual location at 124 Elm Street in the last week or so, not to worry—they'll be back there on Saturday, celebrating a new look and layout for the 32-year-old New Canaan jewelry shop.

Owner Kelly Sigg, a Ridgefield resident who for 13 years has owned Pennyweights with her husband Geoff—himself a 1986 New Canaan High School grad—told Patch they've been renovating since last Monday and are planning a grand reopening Saturday from 4 p.m. - 6 p.m. with hors d'oeuvres.

The work includes creating more space on the sales floor by expanding six feet back, exposing a brick wall and bringing in new casings and wood floors.

"Just a little spruce up," Sigg said.

In the meantime, if you're looking to shop there, Pennyweights is in a temporary pop-up shop across the street (in the alleyway between Sarah Campbell and Chef Louis) until Friday evening.

And by the way, as an added enticement for customers to visit the renovated space, Sigg is offering a $50 gift certificate to those who "like" her Feb. 15 Facebook post on the store's page.

Where DIDN'T you learn to write?? Jane Himmel May 22, 2013 at 01:27 pm "This has CONVINCED MYRead More GROWING CONVICTION that Patch has moved complete..."

I just called Staples. This is really disturbing to me. If I don't get a satisfactory answer, IRead More will let people know and I will also decide whether to continue shopping there. I do not like to give my money to unethical businesses.

This has convinced my growing conviction that Patch has moved completely away from any pretense ofRead More being a news source and is simply an electronic bulletin board. By abandoning their prior procedure of approving posts before they go up, they are letting anything go on and then taking them down if they're reported. By then, it's too late: the poster has gotten their message across during the time it's in the lineup. I only check in with Patch occasionally now and so many people in town won't read it at all anymore. I think we need to be honest with ourselves about what kind of a public forum this venue is. This doesn't reflect well on Staples if they are using subterfuge and violating Terms of Use on Patch either.

Tom, the tree warden doesn't just "put in trees and take them down" just like that. ThereRead More is a reason behind every tree that has come down or gone up. Whats with this town and trees anyway? It seems like a huge source of controversy...they are TREES.

if they had done it at night at least it wouldn't have been smudged. BUT, i happen to think itsRead More nice, and especially with the flags hanging. we forget we are a small new england town, and small things like the red white and blue stripes remind me that we still are! :)
