Wonderful independent jewellers - a real find

I'd like to share my really positive experience with these jewellers in Eastbourne recently - the kind of customer experience that one rarely encounters these days ... Despite the fact that they specialise in high-end jewellery, one of their jewellers, Joanna Penfold, took time out of a busy morning to repair a very modest piece of jewellery for me at short notice, for a small fee and to a very high standard. Her and her colleague's friendly, helpful attitudes and professionality were a powerful reminder of how great it feels to deal with independent retailers, where community spirit and exemplary customer service can make such a huge difference to our experience as customers. To brides-to-be and anyone else who wants to buy jewellery from people that one can trust and who will treat you with respect, do go and see Gold Arts Sussex - highly recommended!

Best price

Friendly staff. Really know their business well. Gave me the best price in The Lanes in Brighton for my antique and modern jewellery items that I wanted to sell. Highly recommend.

Gold Arts are amazing

Gold Arts, Eastbourne are simply amazing. The team are warm and welcoming and all experts at what they do, it is such a positive experience to receive excellent customer service and to benefit from their years of experience in the trade. My last few visits were to arrange a bespoke item for my grandaughters wedding. Francis understood exactly what I was trying to achieve, he took time to turn my idea into reality, the finished item exceeded my expectations, this is due to Francis, who handled the entire process brilliantly, sincerely thank you. This wonderful little jewelry shop is amazing.

Great service

Tristan and Olly have been amazing, helping first with the settings on my rings, then a refurbish and repurposing of a ring for my husband. His late father's ring - which held great sentimental value. A fantastic result, with updates for all repairs from Tristan and Olly. Great service from a jewellery team we have used many times.

Friendly & honest staff

I popped in to get some jewellery repaired ( i've had repairs in the past that have always been great.) Sadly my bracelet could not be mended but the staff were very kind to me and gave me some alternative options and a very temporary fix. I appreciated their honesty.

Sent out to me quite quickly but not…

Sent out to me quite quickly but not notified it was on its way and no tracking available thus I was not at home when delivered so therefore had to sort another delivery which took a while.

Fabulous Service

Can I just say what a fabulous, knowledgeable and courteous service I have recently received at Gold Arts in Brighton when looking to purchase a watch for my son’s 21st birthday. Olly and the team could not have been more helpful. Thank you!
