I have had two consultations with Jolene in the last couple of weeks. She is excellent in what she does, and couldn’t have been be more helpful. I really recommend Steensons!!

I recently spent a very pleasant Thursday afternoon at Steensons Jewellers on Bedford Street, Belfast. This was not only my first visit to their beautifully presented store, but also my first experience redesigning rings—an adventure I was delighted to share with my sister.
We were promptly and professionally greeted by an immaculately dressed staff member, who guided us upstairs to a comfortable consultation area. There, we met Elizabeth, who welcomed us warmly and invited me to share the reason for my visit. I explained that I wished to redesign several gold rings that were now too small to wear.
Elizabeth’s thoughtful questions helped uncover my preferences, and she offered a wide variety of sample rings in different styles and settings. Being able to try them on made all the difference—I was able to clearly visualise the designs and ultimately selected two styles I loved.
Next, we discussed the rings I had brought along to be redesigned. Elizabeth explained that the type of gold would need to be confirmed—whether 9, 18, or 22 carat—and the diamond would also need to be verified as “the real deal”! It would be important to assess the type and weight of the gold, as well as the size and quality of the diamond, before progressing with the redesign.
Elizabeth took great care to measure the depths of each of the selected stacking rings—my final design choice. She explained how we should measure the overall depths of each to ensure they would sit neatly on my finger in the correct position. Then, using a detailed list of available diamonds and their exact measurements, we were able to make suggestions about where each diamond could be positioned for best effect.
Having kept my original wedding band, we agreed that it should be resized, and the remaining diamonds are to be inserted as the finishing ring—five in total.
Finally, we decided to have the wedding band of my late grandmother sized so that I would have an option to wear this too. This ring will be left plain and can be worn whenever the notion takes me. So, all’s good!

Throughout the visit, I felt listened to, understood, and expertly guided—without any pressure or rush. The entire experience was both enjoyable and enlightening, and I’m genuinely excited to see how my redesigned pieces will come to life. I would happily recommend Steensons to anyone seeking thoughtful, bespoke jewellery design, delivered with warmth and professionalism.

I had a consultation today about designing a new ring. I really enjoyed the experience and look forward to seeing what the designer comes up with. I met with Karen who was very professional and engaged with the project.
