Fantastic from start to finish.

Nicky has been incredible. From our initial appointment (She went above and beyond to squeeze us in on the day), we were made to feel completely comfortable and, unlike other stores, unpressured. My partner with Nicky were able to design her perfect ring. Nicky truly puts the customer first and listened to my partner and guided when necessary to make it a ring she's proud of.
The idea of designing a ring and sending it off to be made was something completely new for me, and I was a little bit sceptical to start with, but the communication and updates put me at ease right away. It truly is a fantastic, well-run shop where you're made to feel in control.

Excellent friendly service

Popped into the store on the off chance someone would be free to help talk through wedding ring options. Fergus was incredibly friendly and helpful and really took his time to go through my options and helping to create my perfect wedding ring. To top it off, he even cleaned my engagement ring (purchased at a different jewellers before I knew Austen&Blake existed!)

I went in looking for a ring

I went in looking for an engagement ring, with an idea of what I needed but no experience of buying rings.

Thankfully Fergus was incredibly helpful, friendly and made the whole experience incredibly simple and enjoyable

I'm hoping to pick the ring up in the next few weeks, and know the whole thing has been made as special as possible thanks to Fergus' hard work

If you aren't exactly sure what you need they'll be able to talk you through everything and get you sorted

Thank you for your help Fergus

The service at Austen & Blake is outstanding. Fergus was amazing at helping me and my partner pick the perfect ring! We were anxious before going but felt very confident after leaving. We're so happy we chose to go with Austen & Blake, couldn't find anywhere as great :)

Choosing the perfect eternity ring!

Had a lovely experience at this store, from the moment we met Gabrielle she was polite, helpful and made us feel very welcome in the store.
We were able to take our time and try lots of different rings until we found the perfect one! We were under no pressure at all to purchase & Gabrielle was very knowledgeable in the different types and styles of the diamonds.
We would highly recommend this store to anyone who wants a 5* experience and to purchase a beautiful piece of jewellery!

Wedding Band Appointment

We had a wedding bands appointment with Fergus. We had a very good service, we were offered drinks multiple times and we decided on our rings very quickly in 20 mins. Fergus is a very friendly face which made the experience quite relaxing

Katy is a star and helped us pick out a perfect engagement ring!

Such an amazing service provided by the lovely Katy when picking out an engagement ring for my girlfriend (now fiancée!). Katy made me, as a man, feel extremely comfortable, heard and confident when doing what can otherwise be quite a scary and nerve-wracking experience!

Katy was so informative, honest and ended up helping us pick out the perfect ring. The service was timely, even offering the opportunity for an upgrade at no further cost! Communication between myself and Katy was sound and dependable and left me with little to no doubts.

The pricing is more than fair and the quality of the end product is stunning and incredibly well-done. I am no expert in jewellery, but it has garnered many compliments from both friends and family. We've been given plenty of notice and time to return for resizing of the ring and the process has been completely seamless!

Once again, huge thank you to Katy for allowing us to have the perfect engagement :)

Great experience

First got the engagement ring and have today gone into look at wedding bands. We sat down with Fergus and had a perfect experience.

Fergus was absolutely fantastic, and I'm very confident to go back for any of my jewelry requirements.

We had an appointment to choose our wedding bands.

We had an appointment to choose our wedding bands with Gabrielle, who was just wonderful! I was overwhelmed with choice but I told her what I thought I was looking for and she helped to find the perfect ring. She was so personable and made the appointment really memorable. Thank you!

It has truly been a pleasure working with Nicky and the Leeds team

It has truly been a pleasure working with Austin Blake. The exceptional service and personal touch we received from Nicky, made our experience unforgettable. Marc and I will cherish my bespoke engagement ring and diamond wedding ring forever.
Nicky’s attention to detail and genuine interest in our journey meant so much to us. Always patient and available, she helped us bring my dream rings together.
Thank you Nicky and all staff at Austin Blake Leeds. Andrea & Marc Mason

Fantastic store and wonderful staff

The staff at the Leeds store were super friendly and made us feel super welcome. They helped us pick out the best options while giving a mix of their honest and professional opinions. This resulted in us picking out a style that suited us perfectly.
Charlotte is an asset to the store, and thank you!

Couldn’t thank Fergus enough for his…

Couldn’t thank Fergus enough for his help and patience with me when it came to selecting an engagement ring.
I’d had an initial meeting with him and my partner to gauge which styles she liked in person. No request to see a different style/size held in the back was huffed at. He explained all the main specs of what to look for when buying a diamond ring and made it clear to understand. We had picked a top 3 styles and Fergus emailed them over so we had a reference to work from when I went to another meeting alone. At the second meeting he had the styles to view again to help it easier for me to decide. The whole experience was great from start to finish

Great experience all round

Great experience all round. We were looked after by Fergus who explained the Austen & Blake concept of choosing each element, combinations, stone qualities and the various settings and chain options to craft a necklace my wife was looking for. He showed us what the end necklace would look like with example cubic zirconia necklaces so we knew exactly what we could expect. Fergus was professional, considerate, polite, patient and great at explaining the many options available to us. We ordered it and after a couple of weeks popped back to collect the necklace. Fergus was there to look after us; my wife is more than happy with her fantastic necklace. Can’t fault Fergus, the whole process and the quality of the necklace - wouldn’t hesitate recommending the Austen & Blake Leeds store if you are looking for your next piece of jewellery.

Leeds store - Charlotte

Went into the Leeds store for an engagement ring, and Charlotte couldn’t have been more helpful! I didn’t think to book an appointment but she slotted me in with no problems, very clearly understood a simple way to choose the best options, wasn’t pushy in the slightest, and helped me overcome a few hurdles. 10/10 experience in store and definitely will be back in the future when looking at any other jewellery.
