I ordered a ring that was supposed to tk be close to £2500 but with the discount I paid just under £2000 for. High quality ring. Dorota took care of me the snails time keeping me updated on the manufacturing. I could not as for anymore.
Terrible resolution to error in process
Well there was an error from Austin’s side of things and they resolved with discount which couldn’t be used when something was already on offer. Useless resolution. To an error they caused.
Diamonds are lovely tho

Amazing experience at Austen & Blake Edinburgh
I had an amazing experience working with Agnieszka at Austen & Blake in Edinburgh. She guided me through the full rebuild of my engagement ring and the creation of a bespoke wedding ring to match, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. Her attention to detail, thoughtfulness, and clear communication made the whole process feel easy and enjoyable. She really listened to what I wanted and offered great guidance every step of the way, ensuring the final design had a real “wow” factor while still keeping everything within a reasonable budget.
I’m absolutely delighted with the finished rings and truly grateful for all the effort and care she put into making them so special. I would highly recommend Agnieszka to anyone looking for a personalised and high-quality experience.

Good website to make a choice
Good website to make a choice. Good communication throughout. Good time line my ring was ready. Love the quality of the product. First time using lab diamonds and my ring is beautiful and sparkly as described.

Great experience
Agnieszka helped me and my fiancé design my dream engagement ring. She was really patient with us and not pushy in any way and made the whole experience really lovely. I absolutely love my ring and would really recommend A&B and Agnieszka specifically for anyone in the market for a bespoke engagement ring!

Faster turnaround than expected.
We ordered a ring going through all the options and it arrived well within the time specified which was excellent. Especially as it was a replacement wedding ring come Christmas present.

Dorota was fantastic
Dorota was fantastic! Very patient while I tried to decide which ring to go for, explained how the whole process worked with no pressure whatsoever and this is very important as if I sense this it makes me want to leave so thank you and we will look for her if buying again xx

Gorgeous jewellery let down by packaging
Jewellery was lovely. Very well made, clean and bright. The only reason this is 4 stars instead of 5 is the packaging. Just a cardboard inlay in the box kind of undermined the jewellery.

A pleasure to deal with.
Staff we're very friendly and pleasant to deal with. Listened to my preferences and came up with a style and clarity that I love in my new diamond stud earrings.
Appointments were on time and my jewellery arrived within the anticipated delivery time. I'd happily recommend them.

Brilliant selection of rings, amazing staff!
We are so happy with the service at Austen and Blake! My fiancée and I selected and bought our wedding bands from their Edinburgh Hanover Street shop. The staff were fantastic, super friendly, and highly attentive to the specific designs we were going for. The ring orders were quick and we returned to collect them with joy!

Had a great experience with Jai who helped me pick a diamond to match my requirements that my fiancée absolutely loves!
The ring arrived within the stated amount of time and customer service in store was excellent all round.
The only negative was the lack of response to phone calls and emails which was no fault of the Edinburgh store and seems to be a centralised customer service issue.
Had a great experience
Had a great experience, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Definitely would use again
