James Newman Jewellery Reviews 

James and the team went the extra mile to ensure that the gold on the necklace stood out. I’m thrilled with the piece - thank you.

I'm so happy I found James Newman Jewellery when I needed a ring to be valued. James offers a really easy valuation service, which I appreciated. While I dropped my ring off, I accidentally commissioned a necklace which I've been designing in my mind for several years now. A week later I was collecting my ring, and having a look at a couple of diamonds James had selected for me to choose from. A few weeks after that I picked up my beautiful bespoke necklace which I am beyond thrilled with. I imagine I will find myself inadvertently wandering down Vyse Street, tripping up the steps into his shop and accidentally buying or commissioning more pieces in the future. And I know where to send friends and family if they want a truly special and unique piece of jewellery.

James has the X factor. If you want something unique to mark a special occasion you can’t go wrong. We are repeat customers who suffer from a conflict.James is brilliant but we don’t want everyone else to go to him and get in the way of our next creation….

James and team have created the most beautiful Toi et Moi engagement ring for us. I knew James’ work was amazing (I have a beautiful Gaia emerald ring already) and had to have him design my engagement ring. Seeing our ring evolve from online designs, to 3D printed models to the real thing was the most exciting experience.
I loved being sent links to diamonds, heading in to the shop to try things on and now getting to wear the real thing is incredible. The textured band feels so unique and the setting really shows off the stones James sourced. I’ve had strangers stop me to comment on how beautiful my ring is and I’ll always recommend heading to James’ shop/ website to anyone looking for something truly special. Thank you.

Exhausted from hours of searching Birmingham Jewellery Quarter for the engagement ring that was 'the one' we finally came across James' shop on Vyse Street. A complete breath of fresh air! An incredible range of beautiful, unique settings and precious stones of every hue. Everything we'd seen before we walked through the door looked mass produced in comparison. Suffice to say we chose James Newman for the ring, our wedding rings and now 10 years on, an eternity ring too. Honestly if you're looking for a first-class customer experience and jewellery that will put a smile on your face every time you look at it, consider James Newman.

James designed our absolutely stunning wedding rings for me and my husband to be. He took so much time to discuss and design different options, and made my beautiful ring using a family heirloom - even though it must have been a right faff! Amazing communication through the whole process. Will never be going anywhere else for jewellery!

James Newman is an absolute gent and an unbelievable jeweller. His expert team made me a lovely bespoke pendant to honour my granddad and I have hardly taken it off in 2 years. Excellent customer care and products, I’ll be back for more

James was recommended to us by a friend and we are so grateful! I wanted to use the gold and diamond from an inherited family ring to make my engagement ring. James listened and produced some designs then made us the prettiest ring I could have wished for. He made our wedding rings, too. It was all a very pleasant experience. The welcome from his cuddly dog was a lovely surprise!

James is a wonderfully talented designer and maker of jewellery. We first discovered him when we were looking for a ring for my daughters 21st birthday without much idea of what we wanted. James worked with us to create something that was unique and beautiful that my daughter wears every day and will be an heirloom. We've been back to him and will keep returning as his knowledge, honesty, skill and designs are simply superb. I can't recommend him highly enough.

James and his team did an exceptional job of a ring we commissioned including personalized symbols on the inside of the band. Their attention to detail is impressive and their workmanship exemplary. Highly recommend.

Bought an engagement ring from James Newman a couple of years ago and could not fault their customer service back then, the whole process was a pleasure from choosing the ring to having it sized. Unfortunately, the ring got damaged but I popped back in today and they couldn't be more helpful. They had a look at it right away and before long I was walking out with it good as new. Definitely recommend

I can't recommend James Newman highly enough! I wasn't interested in jewellery until I visited his shop with my sister. Now I have a collection of beautiful hand made pieces, several from bespoke designs and using precious metals and stones form m mother's jewellery.

James is an in incredibly talented man and he listens to what you’re looking for in order to make the most perfect items. He made our wedding rings and now he’s making my eternity ring, many years later, to some very specific requirements. I am so excited to see the final result and I just know that it’s going to be fabulous.

Wow! From start to finish, the tools James and his team use to service clients are not close to his workshop are outstanding!

I felt confident all the way through the process and the outcome is a truly showstopping heirloom ring.

Thank you so much!

I would highly recommend James Newman jewellery. We have brought several pieces of jewellery from James over the past ten years. Each piece has been absolutely beautiful. James will take your ideas and suggestions and turn them into something special. We last visited on Friday as I had seen a ring I liked from an email I received before Christmas. It is absolutely stunning! James had the ring adjusted to fit my finger and we collected it on Tuesday. I absolutely adore it. So, please don’t hesitate to pop along to meet James. You couldn’t meet a nicer guy with such a great personality and knowledge about what he knows about jewellery.

The bespoke service that you get from James and his team really is just that, bespoke. We were really impressed by the care and attention that they gave to our commission, working and then patiently reworking their ideas with our feedback until it was absolutely perfect. We have been customers for several years and when James first made my engagement ring he said that if we ever wanted to upgrade or change it then that would be possible. James has just completed the most spectacular upgrade on my engagement and wedding rings, keeping all of the original design that we loved but giving them a sparkle and difference that I would not have thought possible. Thank you James.

Great service, above and beyond excellent experience

I saw James jewellery online and it looked stunning! My husband a I went to the shop and the ring I was looking at was even better in real life! My husband bought me the ring I liked and we picked it up yesterday! It’s absolutely stunning! Service was excellent all round! Thankyou so much James! Every single thing James makes it original and beautiful!

My partner has bought me several items from James over the years and they are all unique and beautifully made. Most recently we purchased my engagement ring and I am delighted with it. James is very welcoming and takes great pride in the items that he and his team create. I would highly recommend him.

Absolutely amazing experience from initial consultation to design my engagement ring, to seeing the mock up then seeing the finished article which was so much more beautiful than I could ever have imagined. We were made to feel so special every step of the way. James and his team are so friendly, professional and knowledgeable. I cannot wait to visit again to design/select our wedding rings. A special business that stands out from the crowd.
