The past few months have been full of nothing but change. We're slowly easing back into the swing of things here at RGD and have a few updates for you regarding our store hours moving forward. As many of you already know, the Short North location is temporarily closed due to recent activity in the area, but will tentatively reopen this weekend. We've been focusing on finding ways we can directly support POC and the needs of our community long-term. We look forward to opening our doors again soon, check out our Instagram for details on our official reopening date.
The Easton location will now be open on Mondays with these updated hours: Monday - Saturday 11am to 8pm and Sunday 12pm to 6pm While Easton Town Center only requires masks from 11am - 1pm, our store still requires masks at all times. We want to thank everyone for being understanding and wearing masks while shopping with us in-store, our team members really appreciate your cooperation with our new policies. If you'd like to shop and don't have a mask on hand we have complementary disposable ones available at each location. The RGD team has been thoroughly cleaning all surfaces and focusing on highly trafficked areas within our stores. We're dedicated to providing a safe and comfortable shopping experience for everyone. If you aren't ready to shop with us in person don't worry, we've been updating our shop on Etsy with new items every week and there are plenty of ways to shop from a distance. Follow us on Instagram for the latest updates regarding store hours and all things RGD. We're more than happy to answer any questions about store operations and jewelry you might have!

As a small businesses in the Columbus/Short North area we wanted to share some resources for those looking for ways to support POC in our community and across the US. The link below leads to a site listing multiple funds and organizations you can contribute to locally and nationally. If you're unable to donate please consider sharing to spread the word.
SUPPORT HERE <3 Kate & Team RGD As many of you already know, the state of Ohio is allowing the reopening of retail businesses beginning tomorrow May 12th. Our team has been busy preparing for this reopening by deep cleaning all of our stores, discussing what safety precautions will make our team and customers safe moving forward, and putting together a plan to help us navigate this ever changing landscape. The shopping experience at RGD is going to be different than usual, but the safety and comfort of everyone is our number one priority.
STORE HOURS All locations will be operating with limited hours as follows: Easton: Monday - CLOSED, Tuesday - Saturday 11am to 7pm, Sunday 12pm to 6pm Short North & Grandview: Monday - CLOSED, Tuesday - Thursday 12pm to 6pm, Friday - Saturday 11a to 7pm, Sunday 12pm to 6pm German Village: Monday-Friday: CLOSED, Saturday: 11a to 7p, Sunday: 12p to 6p SAFETY PROTOCOL New safety protocols have been implemented to maintain the cleanliness of each location and limit the amount of contact between employees and customers. We will require all employees and customers wear masks while inside our stores; single use paper masks will be available inside the door at all locations for those who do not have a mask. We will only allow occupancy up to 50% of the fire code for each location to allow for social distancing. Doors will be propped open for no-touch entry with a hand sanitizing station set up at the entrance where customers are required to sanitize their hands before touching any products. We ask that you refrain from touching items unless you're seriously considering purchasing them. Small plastic bins will be set up by the doors and we encourage all customers to place jewelry they touch or try on inside one of these bins. All items that are not purchased will be sanitized thoroughly before they are placed back on the sales floor. Employees will sanitize their hands before each transaction/handling your items, we will be accepting cards only for payment, and customers will swipe their own cards to reduce the amount of contact with others. There will be an additional hand sanitizing station at the checkout available for customers to use once they're finished shopping. HOW WE CAN ASSIST YOU VIRTUALLY We understand not everyone may be comfortable shopping with us in person at this time, so we want to make sure we can assist those who are still looking for a virtual/online shopping experience or more limited contact. Etsy While we have a different selection of jewelry on Etsy that isn't available in our stores, our Etsy shop is a great resource for contactless shopping! Our 15% off shop wide sale runs through May 17th and free shipping on all orders will continue moving forward. Customization services will be available in store and online. Local Pick Up As always any online orders placed through Etsy are eligible for free local pick up at any of our retail locations. To take advantage of this option please leave a note on your order with your full name, phone number, desired pick up location, and a pick up deadline if you have one. We will do our best to accommodate your order and get your items to the store by the time you need them. Curbside Pick Up Our stores will also be able to provide curbside pick up for orders as well. Just call the store when you've arrived and one of our team members will run your item(s) out to you as soon as they can (these orders must be paid ahead of pick up). Shop By Text If you have a general idea of what you're looking for you can reach any location by text to have photos or videos of jewelry options sent to you. If you see something you like we can take payment over the phone for curbside pick up or hold the item for in store pick up. Because this is a very fluid situation often changing day to day these details and protocols are subject to change. We will reassess everything as needed if we feel we need to make any changes to provide a safer environment and this will continue to be a learning process for everyone. Thank you all so much for the outpouring of support you've shown for RGD and all of your words of encouragement. Our team really can never thank you enough for helping us through this! If you have any questions about the above information please reach out to us on social media or via email at [email protected]. Love, Kate & Team RGD We've finally reached the time of year in Ohio where the forecast shows more sunny and warm days ahead than cold, gloomy ones. It's hard to believe it's almost the beginning of May; time has passed by both quickly and slowly as we adjust to this new normal. It hasn't been easy for us here at RGD, we miss seeing all of your faces popping into the store shopping for special Mother's Day pieces around this time or looking for a little something to treat yourself to. Over the last month our team has been working hard to add as many options to our Etsy shop as possible in the hope of making shopping online with us as easy as shopping in store. Even though we're all staying home there is still so much to look forward to, and for us one of those things is new jewels for spring! Think bright colors, statement pieces, and layered looks. More often than not it's the little things, like dressing up for a Zoom meeting, that can work wonders when you're feeling down. Check out of our favorite spring styles below for some accessorizing inspiration and shop all styles on Etsy here.
