We’ve loved our experience with holt gems throughout. My husband picked my engagement ring there and said they supported him through the whole design and buying process. We then went back for our wedding rings and loved Holt’s relaxed but knowledgeable appointments. There was no doubt that we would buy our rings from them as the experience was so enjoyable.
Thank you to the team!

Amazing Experience Creating our Engagement Rings
I could not recommend Holts Gems enough. I contacted them earlier in the year with a few ideas for engagement rings for myself and my partner. After arranging the appointment, Farah was extremely helpful and patient in discussing the designs, budget, choice of gemstones, etc. The end product was beautiful, and the rings turned out exactly like we imagined them. Communication throughout the process was very clear, and the team was alway available to answer my questions. I would 100% use them again.

Great service and very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Farah had great communication with us from the very start. The ring turned out perfect and would recommend getting hand engravings done here as the detail is amazing!

Excellent customer service from the lovely Sofia. Her knowledge and passion for gems was infectious and she found the perfect diamond. We had several other appointments but none of them compared to Holts in either product, knowledge or customer service !

Personal, professional, creative and perfect!
The team at Holts took a really personal interest in the piece I was commissioning. They then proceeded in an extremely professional and caring way with great attention to detail. The stones they sourced are perfect and the resulting ring is stunning. I would recommend them to anybody looking for a special gift (or treat for themselves).

Professional and personable
Holts gems were super professional and knowledgeable to help steer me to the perfect ring. They didn’t try to upsell me on something I didn’t want and took the time to advise accurately on what I was looking for with excellent recommendations on a variety of stones. Alicja and Sofia were both happy to take the time to share their knowledge and experience to explore what would be right for me and were able to give recommendations off the back of this, rather than some other places in Hatton garden which could adopt a harder selling line. I was really happy with the ring I bought and with my experience with holts and have since recommended them to friends.

Perfect personal engagement ring!
Sofia was very friendly and used her expertise to pick out the perfect gem which I had envisioned for the ring, which was a green sapphire with a sort of peridot colour. I went in with some sort of idea of what we wanted but the final ring was far beyond what I had imagined. My fiancée says it's the perfect ring and she wouldn't change anything about it! It was good to have someone so knowledgeable help me pick out the gem and ring style because I went into our first appointment without much knowledge on rings or jewels.
The first appointment was a quick call to get an idea for what I wanted in the ring. Then there was an in-person appointment in Hatton Gardens to narrow down the gem and ring style. Then a final appointment to select the final gem and band. Finally a few weeks later the ring was ready to pick up.
I couldn't recommend Holts Gems more!

Highly recommended!
A friend of ours recommended Holts Gems to us and we had a wonderful experience there for our engagement ring.
Lisa and the team took great care of us throughout the process, answering our (many) questions and always being on hand to help and explain.
The office has a warm, family-run atmosphere, and it shows in the care and attention the staff show their customers. It was a real pleasure to go through the process and finding what we feel is the perfect ring. Highly recommended!
