Questions
How does the bespoke jewellery process work?
We begin with a consultation to understand your story and preferences. Using CAD software, we create digital designs for approval, followed by 3D printed wax models if needed. Once finalised, our goldsmiths craft the piece in our on-site workshop.
Do you offer jewellery repair services?
Yes, our on-site workshop handles all repair and restoration needs. From minor adjustments to complete restorations, our experienced goldsmiths use traditional techniques to preserve your jewellery's integrity and beauty.
What information does an insurance valuation include?
Our valuations provide detailed descriptions of each piece, including metal type, stone measurements, and diamond grading details. This documentation enables accurate insurance claims and potential recreation of lost items.
Are payment plans available for custom pieces?
We discuss payment options during the design phase. While we don't offer formal financing, we can arrange staged payments aligned with project milestones to accommodate your budget.
What are your opening hours?
We're open Monday to Saturday from 10am to 5pm. Our Sunninghill workshop remains closed on Sundays and UK bank holidays, but we welcome appointments outside regular hours for special requests.

Had some jewellery valued and ring size altered and was very pleased. Decided to try their Bespoke Design service and was disappointed. After a very brief discussion about 1 possible design which was not to my taste, we asked for other options and received a badly finished CAD drawing. When asking for a simple change and better drawings they asked for more money. Even though we paid 100 to get this far we decided to give up.

When we got married four years ago, we had our wedding rings designed and made by Jason and my engagement ring repaired. He helped us through a court case with the shop who sold us the engagement ring and was genuinely so lovely and understanding that we cannot wait to go back for an eternity ring. A bit late reviewing but honestly couldnt be happier with the craftsmanship.

Thankyou so much to Jason and the team. We brought my engagement ring 15 years ago from Jason Charles and then re designed and enhanced it recently for our anniversary adding more sparkle and its absolutely stunning, amazing quality and the design experience was so detailed and personal to us. Thankyou again xx

Made me a bespoke wedding band to sit next to my engagement ring, which has a wavy design and it matched beautifully. Excellent job, very professional and lovely people. Highly recommended.
