SHOPPING: JEWELRY Frommer
Birks

This Canadian institution, founded in 1879, is synonymous with top quality. Among the silver, crystal, and china is an extensive selection of top-quality jewelry, including exquisite pearls and knockout diamond engagement rings (the diamonds themselves were mined in northern Canada). There's even a children's section, filled with keepsake gifts like Royal Doulton Bunnykins china and whimsical picture frames by Nova Scotia's Seagull Pewter. My personal favorite is the showcase of antique estate jewelry. There's a smaller branch at the Eaton Centre (tel. 416/979-9311).
