Rosamariposa

Best jewelry, accessory store I’ve ever been to! Cutest selection all modern, contemporary, and unique! I can’t wait to go back! The owner was so cute, sweet and helpful! If u want to find jewelry anyone would like and can afford, everything is from $ 5.00– and up but most items under $ 15 and all quality materials made well. I make jewelry myself and I was so impressed! Forget Charming Charlie’s or Claire’s this store has same prices but 100 times better jewelry! Everything is from Indonesia, Bali, Thailand, and other awesome places and not sweat shops in China. That makes me the happiest! Thank u!!!

I’ve walked by this little store dozens of times and had always wanted to go in. I finally made it in and was pleasantly surprised by the large selection and affordable prices. I had my eye on a unique and stylish necklace and it turned out to only be $ 18. I wanted to walk out with the entire store! The girl was super friendly and helpful. Cant wait to back for more.

I love Rosa Mariposa (Rose Buttlerfly:)! Such a cute boutique in the heart of Little Italy, is its most colorful corner. I am a frequent customer as they tend to have the style of earrings I like, and the prices are very affordable. Before going to Spain last May, I stopped by to get stocked with earrings, bracelets and other goodies for my girlfriends. Happy me, I got those offers of $ 1 for a pair of beaded earrings, so I went light in luggage, heavy in treasures. The owner is very friendly, we talked for a long time while listening to world music in her store. One detail I like a lot is that in the concrete, at the entrance, the words House of Love are written. More welcoming, impossible!

My favorite pair of earrings are from Rosamariposa! A few months ago, a girlfriend and I wandered into this cute little shop after gorging on Little Italy pasta. Neither of us intended to buy anything we were just trying to «walk it off» haha. We ended up buying the exact same pair of dangly gold vermeil earrings with champagne Swarovski crystals. Rosamariposa is so reasonably priced and the owner buys from small-​business jewelers all over the world! I need to get back in that store for my next pair of «favorite» earrings.

Reasonable prices and the owner was very friendly. I got a a set of unique sparkly bangles to stack. They also had cute earrings, necklaces and purses. Something for almost everyone.

They need to take down the sign that says «open everyday at 11». I used to love to shop at the store when I visited from Sacramento and picked up gifts for my students and co-​workers. The last two times I made a special trip to this establishment, it was locked up tight with nobody inside, and it was WAY after 11:00 both times. One of my friends arrived at 1:00 to a closed store. I used to really enjoy shopping here, but will never make a special trip there again.

What a cute little boutique. I was lured in by the $ 1 item table, what a bargain! Then I walked inside to see what other items and sorts of deals they had and everything was so cute and fantastically priced! I got a cute wooden ring, two hair clips, and 5 bracelets for just under $ 15. What a steal! The clerk was very friendly and sweet. I will definitely stop by this little gem again when I am in the area.

this little boutique is amazing!!! they have the prettiest indian bangles and great prices!!! i love it! great customer service as well! pretty indonesian bangles and really pretty mexican beaded bracelets as well! but they have the most beautiful indian bangles with crystals i have ever seen here in san diego!!!

I work in Little Italy and frequent this place with my coworker at least twice a month. The owner, Monica, is so nice and funny and just has a great personality. I’m a guy obviously, but if I were a girl, I’d wear half the things in this store. It’s a great place for gifts and nothing is very expensive. A gem in Little Italy.

I stumbled onto this little boutique after having lunch in Little Italy. It has a nice open feel to it and has an eclectic collection of jewelry. The woman working there was very friendly and answered my questions without being pushy.
I found a great wooden bracelet that was unlike anything I’ve ever seen. And it was … drumroll… $ 5! Amazing deal. Enough said.

I have found my favorite accessories and jewelry at this store! The location is great and the price is right! Monica, the owner, takes care in helping customers find what they are looking for as well as show them the latest items she might have picked up on a recent trip to Indonesia or India.
It’s a great place to find inexpensive gifts, or a unique pair of earrings to compliment your outfit. I have recommended so many people to Rosamariposa, just because they’ve seen me carrying a handbag from there. Check it out!

I have been meaning to leave a review for a while. I have been in Rosamariposa MANY times and have always had such a great experience. The owner has always been really helpful and accommodating every time I have been in there. I always manage to find more than enough super cute things in there and always find a need to go back. I purchased multi-​strand necklaces for my friends and got so many compliments on them, I had to get a few for myself and my mom and sister. The prices are so reasonable, it’s easy to get carried away in there. If you are looking for something funky and different that does not cost an arm and a leg, definitely check Rosamariposa out!

I found this great jewelry shop while searching «funky jewelry» on Unilocal!I was looking for a unique birthday present for a friend, but didn’t know where to find reasonably priced rings that were different from the «usual suspects.»
I don’t understand why the person below had such a negative review! When I walked in, the owner was very welcoming and went out of her way to help me find the perfect gift. She even stayed a little later than she had planned (tax day!) to wait for me to arrive after work. They had a beautiful variety of Indonesian wooden jewelry and many different sizes as well. One of the many rings I purchased (they were all sooo cool, I couldn’t decide!) had a slight defect, and the owner was more-​than-​happy to exchange the ring the next week.
I gave this location 5 stars for great customer service, extraordinary pieces, and it’s cute location in Little Italy on Fir where the annual Art Walk is held. Check out this store when you get a chance!

Rosamariposa gets two stars, based on today’s visit. And that’s me being generous, because the space is cute, the scarves are cool, the tank tops are reasonably priced and super-​soft, and the wooden jewelry (most of it, anyway) is funky and interesting.
I walked in with my aunt around 1:00 this afternoon. We were the only customers, and the staff person (owner? gads, I hope not) was busy on the phone, talking all about the website and the problems she was having with it.
Now I’m not saying you have to stop your life and be all excited just because we’ve walked in the door. But a simple smile, some eye contact, a «just a minute» into the phone and a «let me know if I can help you find anything» to us would have gone a long, LONG way.
As we wandered around, picking up things, looking at other things, talking about the great tank tops and the funky painted wooden rings, wondering out loud about the lack of price tags on most things, the woman managed to keep her back to us the entire time. I honestly felt like we were disturbing her terribly just by being there.
The only time she said anything to us at all was when my aunt leaned on a shelf to look more closely at something.
«That’s not connected, ma’am.»
Hmmm. Was she talking to us in that snotty voice? Must’ve been, because she’s been pretty pleasant to whoever she’s on the phone with.
«Pardon?» says my aunt. She’s the kind of woman who says pardon. I’m generally the kind of woman who says, «WHAT?!?», but that’s beside the point.
Nothing from phone lady.
Not connected to what, we wonder? The earth? The floor? The phone conversation? Any hope of us doing business here, despite the aforementioned cool stuff?
Good thing I believe in karma and honesty, cuz I had my briefcase over my shoulder and could easily have walked out of Rosamariposa with a bunch of interesting things. As it was, I walked out with nothing. I wanted to buy my wife a wooden painted ring, but I’m not spending money in a place where people can’t even be bothered to say hello.
