We’ve been purchasing, redesigning, and repairing jewellery at Bentley & Skinner for over 10 years now. They’re a quintessential British Institution - reputable, honourable, honest, courteous, helpful, and yet … low key! Two years ago, we were interested in buying and also redesigning some jewellery. We got introduced to Lola Rafieva. From that first visit until one last week, our interaction with her has been nothing but most pleasant, helpful, and informative! Not only does Lola reflect traditional values of B&S to the letter, she is also a highly qualified jeweller who knows her craft, is a thorough professional, and goes that extra mile in courtesy and follow-through that differentiates good service from a great experience. We are only ever comfortable now when buying jewellery from B&S and in particular, when we have Lola Rafieva helping us. We were very happy and satisfied with her advice on how best to maximise value of the jewellery, her suggestions on possible designs, and the final results - each and every time. It’s been a real pleasure.

I wouldn't use the repair service for any thing not purchased in store. They give incorrect advice. We dropped off a diamond ring overnight to have it inspected by the master jeweller. They were due to call us back the next day to collect, but we had to chase them. When we collected they very undiplomatic-ally said the item was not good and they wouldn't touch it in front of my fiance. They then we should return it to were brought it and that Bentley and Skinner would offer a very attractive price on one of their items instead..... I asked them if they could give a report saying what was wrong with the ring and hey refused to in writing. They then said they would provide me with contact details of someone who would, but they never did. Having then taken our ring for 3 further professional opinions they all contradicted Bentley and Skinner.

I was looking for a wedding ring and Bentley & Skinner were recommended by a friend. I wanted a beautiful dress ring but have very small hands so finding the right cut and fit could be tricky. Lola was absolutely amazing. She was so helpful and friendly and it felt as if she was a dear friend helping me to choose. We discussed stones and colour and she picked out a selection for me to try, but sent me a photo with them on her little fingers to mirror the size of mine so I could see how they could look. When we arrived at the shop she was super attentive and her selection was spot on. I chose the most beautiful ruby ring that fits my hand perfectly and I love it. Highly recommend visiting Bentley & Skinner, they were perfect.

What more can I say.....The whole experience, from first talking to the managing Director and his team, through to discussions regarding making a bespoke piece, as well as re-modelling the pendant was first class and was one of the best I have had in my experience of buying (as well as re-designing) pieces of jewellery for my wife. the team working there, are a credit to the company, in their knowledge as well as their customer service and workmanship, so please pass on my thanks again to them. I would highly recommend Bentley and Skinner for stunning antique jewellery and bespoke design service and will be my "place to go" in London for Faberge and jewellery best wishes Mr and Mrs S

  • Georgina Sykes

Despite a slightly longer wait than I'd hoped (but then again I am a very impatient person) I am absolutely over the moon with the signet ring I have received from Bentley and Skinner. The colour, weight, thickness, comfort and the clarity of the engraving are absolutely stunning quality. The service I received from Bosco was quick and attentive. There are cheaper options out there, but I would not hesitate to recommend B&S to anyone considering a signet ring either for themselves or as a gift. You really do see where the money goes with a purchase from Bentley and Skinner, cannot fault them.

  • Emily Lucid

Bentley and Skinner is a gorgeous store in London selling magnificent antique jewelry. I recently purchased a gorgeous emerald ring from them. I worked with Lola who was simply marvelous. She responded very quickly to every question I had and guided me through the process step-by-step I had seen the ring on a trip to London, but did not purchase it until I arrived home in the United States Purchasing from overseas is not the easiest thing, but Lola made it almost seamless . I cannot recommend this store highly enough if you wish to purchase gorgeous antique jewelry.

  • Tara Draper-Stumm

One of the best jewellers in London. They have a long history of producing both fine jewels as well as selling antique and vintage jewellery of the highest quality. The service is top notch - I have dealt with Mr Vaja and Mr Penfold in the past and they make you feel like a princess. Excellent after-care, re-sizing and repairs. If you are looking for something unique or special this is the place to visit.

  • Julie Conway

My experience at Bentley and Skinner was exceptional from the moment I stepped through the doors until I received my lovely gold signet ring. Julia Westerman was professional, very knowledgeable , helped me make my decisions and was a very nice person to work with. The delivery process to the US was straightforward and I look forward to my relationship with Bentley and Skinner in the future.

  • Sogol Motiey

Bentley and Skinner was recommended to me by another jeweller for same day repair, and to say I am impressed is an understatement! I went in at 1030am to get a diamond ring repaired and they had it ready within an hour! I was a bit nervous going to a new jeweler but i felt at peace the moment I walked in and was helped. I am pleasantly happy with the service and work. Thank you thank you!

  • J Walker

I highly recommend Bentley & Skinner for their time and dedication in helping us choose and design our new pieces of jewellery. They were very patient, as we lived overseas, gave us recommendations, on what would and wouldn’t work with our design. They kept us up to date with the progress, and had clear accurate timeframes. Thank you Reg, for all you work and making us feel so welcome.

  • Benjamin Gooding

I approached Bentley & Skinner to design and craft a bespoke ring. I had general ideas of what I wanted, but associate Julia helped me figure many details that helped crystallize my dream. With her and the goldsmith’s expertise, patience, and insight, I now have a stunning piece to last a lifetime. 5 stars, can’t wait to work with again.

  • Joseph Greenwood

I recently had a signet ring made and engraved by Bentley & Skinner, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. The quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail exceeded my expectations. The ring is truly a work of art. I highly recommend their services to anyone in search of exquisite jewelry.

  • Emmanuel Gobillot

There is service and then there is Bentley and Skinner service. Lola Rafieva was amazing in helping me “design” a special piece for my wife. Nothing was too much trouble and her advice was always amazing. An incredible experience from start to finish. Thank you for all your help and amazing talent.

  • Taj Gormly

Reg helped us to create a bespoke engagement band as my husband wasn't happy with the original band, and also to create a bespoke eternity wedding ring. The prices weren't cheap but they were beautifully made with exceptional craftsmanship and we enjoyed the personal service. Thank you!

  • J

A treasure trove, one of the U.K.’s finest jewellers - beautiful antiques, and handcrafted pieces, a welcome break from the bland carbon copy jewellery found in some of the mainstream Mayfair boutiques. Outstanding customer service from the charming Jessie. Can’t recommend more highly.

  • Florence Botteri

My husband ordered online a pair od turquoise and diamond drop earrings made by Bentley & Skinner. They shipped home in Switzerland (saving VAT) to our full satisfaction. The color of the turquoise are perfectly matching and can only recommend the professional service provided.

  • HY Lau

Huge thanks to Reg for making my first jeweller visit a positive experience. Not only he helped me with finding the perfect pair of pearl earrings, he was also very accommodating while I took my time to ponder the options. Definitely happy with the service and purchase.

  • Alan ODonoghue

We had a great experience picking out an engagement ring in Bentley & Skinner recently. The whole experience was enhanced by the knowledge, friendliness and helpfulness of Bosco who helped me on multiple visits. I’d highly recommend his services and Bentley & Skinner

  • Pauline Jorgensen

A wonderful jewellery store, nothing is too much trouble and they have some amazing pieces. I have bought several beautiful items but also had a signet ring made for my sons 18th and some repairs. The staff are fantastic and very knowledgeable and friendly.

  • Santi Doodles

I recently took a ring to get a condition report here - the service was outstanding particularly by Lola who provided exactly what was required as well as being indepth and a clear explanation of the condition. Would highly recommend.

  • Sylvie Jaquemont

Went to sell some quality pieces, they tried to cheat me. The guy said they don't pay high prices for jewellery, because "we have lots of little old ladies who don't know what they have, and we can pay them nothing". There u have it.
