You all know me by now and you know that I love anything to do with weddings, especially a good proposal. Over the past couple of years I have seen a rising trend in ‘Proposal Tokens’, if you haven’t managed to find that perfect engagement ring, these little babies fill the gap between the popping of the question until the that all important official engagement ring is purchased. A proposal token can range from a…

Who’d of thought when you were buying gifts last year and making reservations for dining and stay away that this year would be so different. Just like Christmas, this year is going to be a virtual Valentines Day. Whilst necessity is the mother of all invention, and so whilst you will be busy on planning how you are creatively going to spend the day, I have put together a little blog of ideas, so that…

So here we are in Lockdown 3.0 and I sincerely hope you are all well and are coping under the circumstances. On a normal year I’m a bit of a wedding nut, I love wedding programs tacky or not, I love to see the fashions change and re-appear (not showing my age here). Most of all I love that even though there are set cultural traditions, certain conventions to be adhered to, there is always…

Well….. where do I start? There are so many adjectives that I could use to describe 2020 as a year, stressful, frustrating, restricting but to name a few. Everyone has suffered this year, whether it be financially, mentally, socially or otherwise, its has been so trying for us all. Thinking back I still shudder at remembering the months of the shop being shut to the public and even worse….HOME SCHOOLING! But for all the bad…

If you have read my blogs over the past few months, you will have heard me talk about how we believe that every piece of Jewellery is the beginning of a journey and holds significance and meaning to those who have bought it. It is one of the reasons why I love working in the Jewellery industry so much, the pure and simple fact that each piece of jewellery is bought with a reason, with…

I hope you are all well and staying safe, and hopefully gaining a little of the Christmas spirit as we edge closer and closer to the big day. Its certainly a strange one and admittedly I have found myself being nostalgic of my 2019 Christmas self. I don’t know about you all but I am at the stage of making a million and one lists of all the things I have forgotten, all the people…

It’s been so lovely to have a shop doors open again and I can’t tell you how great it has been to speak to customers face to face. We’ve had a wonderful response in the store, with so many of you coming in Christmas shopping, getting your jewellery spruced up and just all the general everyday stuff, it makes me so happy to have this little bit of normal back. Whilst over the lockdown period…

About A Blog As I am sure you will have noticed, at least I hope you have, especially if you follow us on Facebook or on Instagram, that recently I have been posting a blog on our website every week. My blogs are strictly nothing intense or time consuming, no rants or political ravings, no, none of that! My blogs are, obviously, about the jewellery industry, subjects that I feel are relevant to our customers…

As you may have seen in the store and from our social media, we have a new watch line, Bering…which is super exciting! However when I was looking for a new brand to put into our showroom, I found myself coming up… well… a little short on the knowledge side of things. I didn’t know what difference was between Luxury and Fashion watches or Solar and Eco-Drive. They say ‘you never stop learning’ and ‘they’…
