The first thing that instantly caught my eye is that you used a awful-looking fake italic in “Joyería” and not a real font. If you're concerned about the website's image, you should get a separate font (Benguiat Italic) for that. But once again, I don't know how much you're willing to invest in the design.

You have a nice technically validating website, but I don't know what it's about so can't comment on the design any futher.

Oh, I read the translation now. Jewellery, right?

I think the design is a little bland. Benguiat is a relatively good choice for the logo, after you've fixed the artificial slanting, but the rest of the design could be easily made more interesting.

Jewellery shops often use marco photos and the designs have a strong sense of expensiveness. Mostly if you look at a website of a jewellery shop, you instantly notice that it's got something to do with jewels or antiques even without reading any text.

Here are a couple example sites: Example 1 (http://www.antiek-zilver.nl/) | Example 2 (http://www.tarkiainen.fi/)

So, the design could communicate a bit more.

oh and the font in the logo ... if thats your logo its fine .. ignore fmiles imoThe font is great, but the italic is slanted, fake italic and look clumsy computer-generated. It's a question of style and all about giving a professional image about your company. Like, you can always go to a funeral in a red pullover and training pants, but while others are wearing black suits...

Hola -
Your site is very simple. Nice, clean coding.
One thing: for a "store" site, it is a little image bare.
