Anyone who's shopping for beads along Queen West has to expect that they'll only find poor quality. Arton Beads is great for cheap beads (ie. seed beads) and overpriced strings of pearls, but avoid Queen West if you want anything of decent quality. Arton's among the best of the worst, but that's not saying much. (P.S. Watch out for one of the stores across the street -- the guy running it changes his prices depending on the race and gender of the customer. Scary.)

Arton Beads is awesome, it's such a small store packed with lots of goodies. I absolutely love the sterling silver section they have. The staff do their best to help even though their knowledge is limited. From all the trips I've made.. everyone was nice & accommodating except for this annoying girl with long blondish hair as if asking any questions was a chore! Don't bother asking her, go to someone else. Checked out Fancy Gems - the owner seems really friendly, but is a bit upscale & the selection is limited. Overall Arton has a wide assortment of merchandise at affordable prices! I recommend this place. Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report as Spam |

I love Arton Beads! I live in Montreal and travel to TO usually for the sole purpose of buyng some beautiful semi-precious strands and silver fittings! The selection is amazing and prices are as well!! (Often less than half the prices of that overrated Fancy Gems store just across the street). Over the years I have been extremely happy with my purchased turquoise, quartz (smoky and pink) onyx, amethyst, you name it!!!
