It's not every day you get to get a forever piece of jewelery made for someone special. From start to finish, Hettie's service was incredible including her expertise of what will work best for the designs you have in mind.
The coolest thing about the process was getting videos of how far the design is coming along. Wainwright is definitely Fine Jewellery!
Their space is perfect and all the people you will meet there are spectacular!

I asked Hettie to reimagine two of my diamond rings into a brand new piece—a "Celebration of Life" ring. She truly captured the essence of joy, lightness, and the celebration of life in my beautiful new ring. Wearing it every day brings me immense joy.

Hettie is amazing.
Wainwright Fine Jewellers is a one-stop shop for me.
I never need to go to the shopping mall jewelry shops to shop around as I know that I will come right with Hettie.
I bought a beautiful pair of earring for my mom, which Hettie even modified to tick all the boxes. And the price was excellent.
And then, I took my wife's gold chain to Hettie to fix, but there were too many weak points in it to make it worth our while, so Hettie offered to buy it from us and offered a very reasonable price, so we sold it to her.
Hettie is amazing.

We can never thank Hettie enough for the amazing service she provided us in making us the perfect ring.
From the very start she listened to us and did things how we wanted. It is very rare to find a jeweller who really LISTENS to a client and not try to force their ideas unto you.
Hettie kept us in the loop every single step of the way in designing my ring. We had so much fun with the printed on paper rings before hand, my husband felt like a little kid to cut and colour it in with crayons every day haha.
Thank you, Hettie for making me the ring of my dreams. For using every stone like they were, for helping us find the perfect way to bring in the little diamonds of my engagement ring to still keep the sentimental story behind them. Thank you for making my granny's diamonds look like royalty with my engagement ring etc.
I just love every single angle of the ring. A photo doesn't really do it justice! My ring sparkle from all angles!
Thank you for being such an amazing person! We will be back and refer people to you any time! You are the best in the business!
May your business go from strength to strength!

Hettie is one of my favorite people in this world. She was super helpful and creative when we designed my wife's engagement ring and she really brought the idea I had to fruition. Her craftsmanship and attention to detail is unmatched and she takes pride in every piece of jewelry she creates. I would definitely recommend contacting her for any design and manufacturing needs for any kind of jewelry you might need.
