WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

“The service from start to finish was 5 star. We hadn’t an appointment made as our engagement wasn’t planned. Oliver took a look at the rings I was wearing and showed us ones that would complement them… Oliver had a look at my antique ring and noticed it was well in need of immediate repair as stones were in danger of being lost. Very grateful he spotted this and is being repaired by DesignWorks. We both agreed on a ring designed by Tuula that fitted perfectly and as everyone is saying it’s so you. Thanks for making such an important day so memorable. “

“Staff, design, finished product… all 5 stars and nothing less. Got my wife a bespoke wing pendant with some birthstones, designed by Tuula, and it is fantastic. My wife absolutely loves it. Really happy I choose Designworks Studio and couldn’t recommend the team highly enough.”

Dave Goggin

“Got my wedding ring from this studio and I couldn’t be happier. Angela thank you for your patience and Oliver for amazing work, my ring is perfect and just the way I wanted it. 5 stars all the way! We will be back for sure!”

“Amazing service. I asked for a bespoke piece to be created from my late grandmother’s ring for my 30th birthday. Not only am I in love with the finished product but the team at DesignWorks couldn’t have been more helpful and professional.”
