If I could give Sophie 10 stars I gladly would. I had some rings which I inherited from my mum and so they were of great sentimental value. I wanted them remodelled into a pendant. Sophie was incredibly understanding as to how important the end result would be to me. She was very patient and drew a number of different designs which we tweaked as we went along and I finally chose the perfect one for me. Sophie kept me informed of every step in the process. I am absolutely blown away by the finished pendant. It is so beautiful and the quality of her work is amazing. The pendant has been made not only with great skill but also with great care. I truly love the pendant and enjoy wearing it very much - it is precious and unique. Thank you so much. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sophie for all things jewellery.

My partner and I got our wedding bands and my engagement ring from Sophie and she couldn't have been more helpful throughout the process. She always responded very quickly when we contacted her by email. She made a bespoke engagement ring from a conversation and a few photos of ideas from my partner. She really listened to our ideas for our wedding bands too, and created equally as perfect pieces for these too. We had some family rings we wanted to use for these, and Sophie was more than happy to use this gold to add a sentimental touch to our wedding rings. When we collected the rings, my partner's ring needed resizing slightly, and she did this within 30 minutes. Overall, we couldn't recommend Sophie's services highly enough - she is brilliant.

We could not have had a better experience with Sophie! I had two engagement rings, one my partner had bought me and one that was passed onto me from my future mother-in-law and I wanted to combine them into one engagement ring. We weren’t quite sure what we wanted, or how we wanted to do it, but Sophie very patiently guided us through the process, showing us various designs. The end product is just STUNNING. I could not have asked for better. We would highly recommend Sophie who’s super talented and super lovely. Thank you!

  • Clare Louie

Sophie designed and made my wedding ring from my Grans wedding ring and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Sophie was great to work with throughout this process, producing a number of PDF designs for me and even taking my very bad drawing and notes and interpreting them to produce the final design. The final product fits beautifully with my engagement ring, is perfect in terms of size and is very comfortable to wear. If I ever want bespoke jewellery again will certainly be contacting Sophie.

  • Joe Young

I commissioned a bespoke engagement ring from the Occasional Goldsmith, and Sophie worked closely and patiently with me to design a truly beautiful and unique ring. With her expertise and creativity we were able to work through a number of iterations and developments before arriving at a final design. I couldn't be more pleased with the result, and the craftsmanship and finish is immaculate. Unfortunately six stars wasn't an option, so five will have to do. Thank you so much!!

  • Alex Davies-Walsh

I still can't believe what Sophie created for me, the most perfect set of rings I could imagine made from inherited stones and gold mixed with stones from my wedding ring to make a new, very special set. She was so patient in going back and forth in the designing process and keeping me up to date with how they were coming along. She is super unpretentious and just such a talented artist, I will enjoy my rings forever. Thank you Sophie xx

  • Jade Taylor

I was lucky enough to have Sophie design and make my beautiful bespoke engagement ring using heirloom diamonds - thank goodness my fiancee found her! Sophie was so lovely, helpful and flexible and totally understood my partners vision - I could not have imagined a more beautiful ring. I cannot wait to go back to her for my wedding band! Thanks again Sophie.

  • Sarah Robbins

I had two rings that I inherited from my mum plus my grandmother’s wedding ring. None of them was really wearable and yet they meant a great deal to me. I asked Sophie to design and make a new ring incorporating the gold and gemstones from all three. I am delighted with the ring that Sophie made for me that I can now wear all the time.

  • James French

The Occasional Goldsmith designed and made a beautiful engagement ring for me. I was venturing into the unknown when it came to the design and materials, but the level of help and advice I received throughout was amazing. Most importantly, the end result is unique and stunning - my new fiancee absolutely loves it! Thank you.

  • Ella Gardiner

I absolutley love the engagement ring Sophie made for us - with gold from my partner's family and stones from mine Sophie made a piece that will unite two families, with timeless elegance but a modern twist. Thank you so much. Wonderful design, lovely person and super responsive throuugh the whole process. Thank you!

  • T Fallon

I wanted to celebrate a work promotion, and Sophie helped design exactly what I wanted and worked with me to decide the best stones for my budget. I couldn't be more pleased with my one of a kind ring, I will use her again whenever I want another piece of jewellery for a special occasion.

  • Annie Hedges

Sophie did an amazing job on my engagement and wedding ring. She really listened to my ideas, found exactly the kind of stones I wanted and set them beautifully. Sophie is extremely professional and everything was finished to such a high standard. I’m so pleased with my rings. Thank you!

  • Isobel Goodacre

After losing my engagement ring, I took an inherited diamond ring and gold ring to Sophie to remodel into something new. She understood exactly the type of style I was looking for and sent over three beautiful designs to choose from. I couldn't be happier with the outcome, thank you!

  • Lynn Dennett

I had some gold and diamonds that were of sentimental value that I wanted incorporated into a ring. I didn’t think in my wildest dreams Sophie would be able to design and create such a gorgeous, bespoke piece of jewellery. This is one professional talented lady. Lynn Dennett

  • Melanie Kate Rothnie

Sophie made me a bespoke wedding ring to fit my engagement ring. The ring is absolutely stunning and I couldn’t have hoped for anything better. Throughout the process Sophie was so lovely and professional and very knowledgeable about her craft. Thanks the occasional goldsmith.

  • Lucy Boseley

Exceptional service from this jeweller. She created a bespoke pendant for my daughter’s 18th birthday and I couldn’t have asked for more. Great service, wonderful quality. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something special and unique.

  • Victoria Aylwin

Sophie’s made us the most stunning set of rings for our wedding; engagement ring and both wedding rings. She brought our ideas to life in the most beautiful way. We couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much Sophie!

Sophie did a great job on remodelling a family heirloom in to my wedding band. Offered great advise on options, costs etc. Fantastically responsive on all communications. Thanks Sophie, love the ring!

  • Naomi Hunt

I had three beautiful rings and asked Sophie to turn them into one ring. The process was excellent, and I couldn't be happier with my new ring. I love it!! Thank you so much, Sophie.

  • Alexander Lee

I commissioned a bespoke family heirloom ring and I love the result! It took 2 months from inquiry to delivery. Thank you Sophie for my stunning gold ring.
