I received the Underwater Love necklace, Ocean Dreams Earrings and the It's Raining, It's Pouring earrings yesterday. They are amazing and totally unique, I am blown away!
I can't wait to see Ocean and Storm's faces when they open them. The packaging itself had so much time and effort put into it that I just knew that there were treasures waiting to be unwrapped. I am so impressed with the products and overall service. I am in the process of compiling my own wish list.
Thank you so much, I just know that there will be two very happy girls!

Hi Les, the rings arrived yesterday and they are absolutely brilliant! We are so excited to have such unusual and personal wedding rings, and something recycled and environmentally friendly, and the fork is also a great memento and it's great to know the history behind it too! And thank you so much for prioritising them and getting them to us so quickly.
We tried them on and they are a perfect fit - I couldn't resist taking a photo and sending it to you because, by complete coincidence, mine looks like it was tailor made to go with my engagement ring which has a slight twist to it just by the stone, so the stone sits in the join of the wedding ring! It was clearly meant to be.
And the necklace is gorgeous too!
Thanks again!
Ellie - Surrey

Hi Les, I picked up my pendant from the post office today (I missed it on Friday). It's perfect, I really love it! Thanks again for replacing the bangle for me.
Best wishes
Sharon - Falkirk.
Les, you're amazing!! I love them - they're all totally exquisite. I don't know how you manage to create such delicate designs. The packaging is fab also. Thank you! I can't wait to see their faces. I will definitely be back for a birthday present for my niece, and I will certainly be dropping hints to my fiancé! I'm not sure which hints to drop though, as you make so many beautiful things. I love the trees, and the birds in the branches. Best wishes, Cherry
PS Stu said "If you love this guy so much why don't you…" (I wondered at this point if I'd gone overboard with the praise!)"…put a link on your website!" So I will

Sam - Derbyshire.
Hello Mr Les, Well what can I say. A very spoilt lady and with 2 very clever men to thank! I won't bore you with the 'Daisy' story but it has a lot of meaning to us and the bracelet is quite simply a beautiful reminder of why and how it came about. Thank you for sharing your talent with us and making something I can wear to remember this.
As for the necklaces – wow, just awesome! We would both be more than happy for you to offer this to other people, I personally can't wait to point it out and tell everyone how amazing my husband is, and how well you guys work together!
Thank you for all the pieces we have had from you, each one has a meaning and story attached and I share these at any and every opportunity, they are always admired and hopefully lead to further business for you.
Well I think thats enough wittering from me, take care and thank you again.
Susan - Mersyside.
I recently purchased a tree necklace for my god-daughters 18th.Absolutely stunning piece of jewelery.It was a complete success with her and all her friends keep asking where she got it from.Despite me being an awkward customer the service I received was phenomenol.
I have just ordered the nelly brooch and elephant earrings for my sisters 50th as she loves elephants. Cant wait for them to arrive.Hopefully the next piece of jewellery I purchase will befor me.......one day :-)
Many thanks for your wonderful creations and fantasic service

Dear Les, My boyfriend yesterday gave me a pair of the Kiss Chase (cat and mouse) earrings for my birthday. They're absolutely beautiful, and perfectly complement my pair of small owl earrings that he bought me from your Cambridge stall at Christmas. He told me you went to great effort to ensure the earrings were made in time and I just wanted to thank you. Warmest regards,
Donna - London.
Hi, Just got the owl ear rings you made for me. Awesome! They are for my daughter's birthday; she is really into recycling and owls. Kills three birds with one stone! She will love them. Sorted! Quod erat demonstrandum. regards,
Nigel Short - Doncaster.
Hi Les, Received the fork bracelet this morning congrats on a lovely piece of work. I was in toolmaking for about 50 yrs so I appreciate hand crafted metalwork. Its my daughters' 50th birthday on the 11th I'm sure she will be delighted with your handiwork. thankyou very much
Gordon - Gwent.
Hi Les,
The earrings arrived today. They are perfect! Thank you for working so hard on them!
Oli - London.
Hi Les ! Just picked up the large green envelope.....what a NICE presentation and what a pleasant surprise. I didn't know what to expect at first [since I didn't order anything THAT size]. That is a great idea ! I'm definitely keeping the spoon to show people how you did it.
Ever contemplated doing something involving TURTLES ? I've got a friend with a birthday somewhere in September who's nuts about turtles [breeds them too] and loves pendants. Just a thought.....
As always, THANKS A MILLION Les ! Best wishes,
Denise - Belgium.
Hi Les,
Last week I received the order. Fairy and spoon have arrived safely...both are more lovelier than in the picture!!
Thank you for your perfect job, thanks for sending it so fast and well packaged. It's nice to work with you!! Best regards,
Mayra Fernández Joglar - Spain.

Hello Les, The Farthing pendant arrived on schedule this morning, Thank you. Before I re-packed it I had a quick look myself and it looked really original, of another age and just a nice piece of "quality." I certainly will be back to you again once I've collected my ideas together.Thank you.
Tony - Middlesex.
Hello Les, Thankyou very much the coin arrived safely today. It is loved and being worn. thankyou!

Dear Lez
I can hardly begin to say how much i love my hare necklace, she is so beautiful! I have called her "Aina" a celtic name meaning joy.
She is a real treaure, i shall wear her all the time with pride! You have done such a beautiful job & the personal details on the back were a wonderful suprise. I was right then to let you decide ;-)
I dont think i have ever received a parcel that made me squeak with delight so much, the package was wrapped so amazingly, a treat to unfold and all the extra attention to detail made it even more precious.
I do love your business cards & logo design, fabulous all round design.
Thank you again, hope you have a fab week
best wishes
Ruthie - Dumfries and Galloway.
Les,Your parcel arrived today which was a very pleasant surprise as i wasn't expecting it til tomorrow. I absolutely LOVE them! I couldn't be happier :)
The ring fits so well it feels as though it was made for me and is even more gorgeous than I remembered. And the tree is adorable!! I love everything about it :)
Thank you so so much. I'm really thrilled with them. I showed them to the ladies I work with and have shared your web address with them too. They were very impressed so fingers crossed it leads to a sale or two.
Thanks again Les, I'm sure I'll be back in touch!
Kindest regards,
Claire - Wigan.

I just wanted to send you a quick email to say how fantastic my bespoke crow design earrings and pendant are! When I saw them at Christmas I burst into tears with surprise - they are quite simply perfect. You are a wonderfully talented craftsman - don't ever stop creating!
Kindest reagrds, Jo Carrigan.

In dec 2010 I bought one of your heart fork bangles (pictured on the 'new products' page), from Cambridge arts and crafts market.
I just want to tell you how much joy it bring to me!!!
I get so many compliments on the bangle, and when they find out it was a fork in a previous life, they are amazed!!!
As soon as I saw the bangle, I fell in love with it! Then I put it on and couldn't resist! I havent taken it off since I bought it.
So thanks again for this amazing, beautiful piece of art!
Cant wait to visit Cambridge again soon to see your new collections!
Sophie Clark - Cambridge.
HI THERE, JUST RECEIVED TWO RINGS WE ORDERED AND MY HUSBAND AND I ARE REALLY PLEASED WITH BOTH RINGS. THEY ARE SO UNIQUE AND INDIVIDUAL WE LOVE THEM. I WAS SURPRISED HOW HEAVY MY RE-CYCLED FORK RING IS BUT THAT WILL NOT DETER ME FROM WEARING IT AS OFTEN AS I CAN. I AM IN THE HAIRDRESSING INDUSTRY AND I KNOW I AM GOING TO GET SO MANY COMMENTS ON MY RING,(I WILL CERTAINLY BE TELLING EVERYONE WHERE IT HAS COME FROM!). THANKYOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME IN PRODUCING SUCH EYE-CATCHING PIECES! I WILL BE BUYING MORE FROM YOU!
REGARDS

Ace Signmakers Ltd - Kent.
Just wanted to thank you for the ABSOLUTELY AMAZING jewellery. I bought two sets of earrings, a brooch & two pendants & they are breathtaking. You were so accommodating when I asked for a brooch design to be turned into a pendant & for getting them to me so quickly as they were gifts. When they arrived they were packaged beautifully & I was so excited! I'm so pleased with my purchases & I'm already saving to buy some more. It's so nice knowing that my jewellery pieces are one-offs as each one you make are the same, but also uniquely different (if you get what I mean?!)! I can't wait to see the faces of the people who I am giving them too - they are going to love them!!! I'll definitely be recommending your site & I'll be returning soon too!
Thanks again.

Hey, just to let you know she loved it, it looks great. Thanks for being so accommodating and really helpful. - Shevan.
Hi Les,
Many thanks, it actually arrived this afternoon! It is very beautiful and I am sure my friends will love it - perhaps you might get a few more orders from the Czech Republic!
Thanks again,
Amanda - Czech Republic.
Dear Les,
I picked up the tweety ring from the post office this morning [this time I DID have to sign].
What a BEAUTY !! It fits like a glove too ! Thank you SO much.
Am eagerly awaiting the bangles now [no hurry though]. I've never, ever worn a bangle in my life [I'm a pretty active, sporty type who never cared much for jewelry !] but the ones I've ordered were just too pretty to ignore....
Just curious.....you've been doing this since 1999...whatever gave you the idea ??? King regards,
Denise - Belgium.
hi just wanted to email you to say thanks. The fairie and pixie brooch was awesome! it was a birthday present for my sister and she LOVED it! thanks
Rebecca Marven.
Hi Les,
Just wanted to let you know that the little pendant arrived Wednesday, and it is beautiful I knew it would be. No worries about the robin on the back I was just thinking it would have been a nice touch for her since her name is Robyn, and if you had still been working on it , it would have been more convenient to you. She adores her tree and has been after something like this from your site for ages. I cant wait to order my next present which I will do very soon. I have been showing the girls at work your site too so hopefully they will all want to order as well (Though we do want to keep your site somewhat to ourselves, it is only fair to share it with others of like minds) :-)) We loved the little cut out butterflys and stars and the tree from the delivery note etc it made us all smile so thank you ,thank you ,Thank you, so very much once again.and for the future orders I am going to place too. Your work is amazing , and we adore the recycling part too
Kindest regards and many thanks KATEY, MIKEY AND ROBYN xxx
recived it the other day and katie loves it!
thanks so much! brilliant service we will be back!

Hi Les
I just wanted to thank you so much for popping my order as priority, I received it this morning.
I also just wanted to say how fab the packaging was, from the fancy envelope to the gorgeous little bag the ring came in. I was impressed even before I saw the gorgeous ring!! I am so excited about Sunday when I see my sister and give her this as her birthday present, she is going to love it!
Thanks again for all your hard work, fab customer service and the little extra touches you add to make the purchase feel like Christmas in an envelope!
I will be back and will be bringing friends!
Suze - Tyne & Wear.
Dear Les,
Just a feedback to let you know how much your lovely jewellery was appreciated. We oooo'd and aaaaah'd all day. Apart from buying presents for my daughters they secretly bought some for me (lizard and mermaid earrings) and I was absolutely delighted.
Keep up the good work!
Best wishes,
lindsey Barraclough - London.
Hi Les
I just had to email to say thank you for making such beautiful lizard earrings! My younger son and his girlfriend bought them for me for Christmas - and I think found you by complete serendipity not realising (I think!) that I'd found you at Glastonbury and then got Maya's birth spoon from you. When I opened the charming little bag and your card dropped out I couldn't beleive it! Nearly cried with delight when I saw the earrings too!
The earrrings have been much admired.
Regards
Jules.
Hi Les,
The package arrived today and I've left feedback on your site. You are amazing !!
I'm Clumsy with a capital C and have therefore even more admiration for people who can actually do something useful with their hands ! I've put in a new order for 2 bangles - TAKE YOUR TIME - no hurry whatsoever, they're for me and I've ordered them for no other reason than that I LOVE 'em [what would life be without a little indulgence]...
Can't wait to see what new creations your brain has concocted for 2011 !
Love,
Denise
Antwerp-Belgium

Hi Les
I wanted to thank you for the beautiful bangle. My sister loves it.
I cannot thank you enough for your excellent prompt service, correspondence and delivery. It arrived Saturday morning, just in time.
Thank you again, and I think you may well have a few more orders as 10 girls fell in love with your work and have all gone away with your website address.
Kind regards
