An exceptional experience
We came in for wedding bands, and left with an amazing experience. Poppy and Sara were incredibly helpful and made us feel very welcome in busy circumstances. The bands are excellent and we can’t wait to wear them. We cannot recommend this store more.
Wow what can I say
Wow what can I say. We booked an appointment and we had arrived 30 minutes early so expected to be turned away but we were warmly welcomed and enjoyed a cold glass of prosecco while we were expertly talked through styles and designs to choose for our engagement ring. Jean and I hit it off right away and even teared up when my partner and I were telling her our love story. I couldn't have hoped for a more special experience to choose this ring and we will remember it forever! Can't wait to receive my special unique ring and come and show jean! Thank you again!! Love Beth and Pete x
Excellent experience
I recently purchased an engagement ring and couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From start to finish, everything felt professional, smooth, and genuinely personal.
The quality of the ring is outstanding exactly what I was hoping for (if not better) What really stood out though was the customer service. Every question I had was answered quickly and thoroughly, and I never felt rushed or pressured at any stage.
Buying an engagement ring is a big moment, and they made the whole process feel exciting rather than stressful.
I’d absolutely recommend to anyone looking for something special. A great product backed by excellent service.
Thank you very much Sara who was fantastic and very helpful!
So disappointing
I had an appointment booked last week at the Chester branch to look at upgrading my engagement and eternity rings ahead of my 40th birthday. This was a really special experience for me—my husband and I have been together for 20 years, married for 14—and I had been looking forward to it for a long time.
Unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing from the moment we arrived. I had an appointment booked. When I explained I was interested in trying pear-shaped rings, I immediately felt spoken down to. She repeatedly corrected me in a way that came across as dismissive rather than helpful—for example, telling me “so you mean a solitaire” without properly listening to what I was describing. When I tried to explain I liked a pear-shaped ring with stones on either side, she again corrected me bluntly (“so a trilogy”) instead of guiding me through the options in a welcoming way.
At one point, when I said I liked a certain style but wanted it with a pear centre, she told me I would “have to use my imagination,” which I found unhelpful and quite off-putting—especially when visiting a jeweller to see and try designs in person. During the appointment, she also reacted abruptly when interrupted, raising her voice toward someone at the door, which added to the uncomfortable atmosphere.
The overall experience made me feel uneasy and unwelcome, to the point where I chose to leave early. This was meant to be a meaningful and exciting milestone purchase, and it was disappointing to feel rushed, dismissed, and uncomfortable instead.
On a positive note, we visited other jewellers afterward where the service was warm, patient, and helpful. I ended up choosing a beautiful oval ring that I absolutely love, along with a new eternity ring—so the day was thankfully not a complete loss.
I would strongly recommend that more attention is given to customer experience, especially for such sentimental purchases. Feeling listened to, respected, and guided makes all the difference.

Wonderful experience
From the moment we walked in to have a look at what would be available within our budget, Mariana instantly made us feel so welcome.she listened to what we were looking for, our budget and was so thoughtful in her options presented for me to try on. After much deliberating we finally decided and left after being made to feel very special.
It was also wonderful Mariana was there and available when we picked the ring up, she instantly remembered us and the conversations we'd had.
This ring was to celebrate our 10 year anniversary and Mariana most certainly made it feel so special.
