Nicky Burles

Not only is Nicky an incredibly talented craftsman and designer, he made what had been the stressful experience of choosing an engagement ring an immensely enjoyable one.

We came to Nicky with no set ideas of what we wanted and he led us on a journey that gave us the most perfect piece we could have wished for. The result is a ring that we both love, is something we created together, and we that know was crafted with love.

We cannot recommend Nicky highly enough. Thank you for being a part of this special time!

Thank you to the exceptionally-gifted Nicky enough for bringing an idea to life in the most breathtaking way, patiently shaping and making it with so much love, creativity and talent. Nick is a true master of his craft; creating this ring was a beautiful process and I cannot recommend him highly enough if you're looking to design your own significant piece of jewellery.

Nicky is a very talented craftsman and artist whose skills stretch much further than design, gemstones and metals, into interpersonal communication and emotional intelligence.

When my wife and I were trying to decide on a design for our wedding ring, we were stuck and couldn’t give Nicky a clear idea of what we wanted other than “something unique”. Nicky was able to tease out of us something of great meaning that we weren’t able to articulate until he helped us draw it out. It was of my favorite river, my spiritual home back in NZ. Now every time I look at it I see my river and know that I am home with the love of my life.

Nicky designed and created beautiful wedding and engagement rings for me and my husband. We wanted something understated, with an organic shape to it and I wanted a green stone rather than diamond. Nicky came up with about 5 possible designs, all of which were great. We went with one of those designs and the final products were better than we could have imagined. He has a real skill in understanding who you are and designing something tailored to that - whilst also keeping in mind the practicalities of long term wear. Plus he hunted high and low for stones with the perfect shade of blue/green to them!

Being in the jewellery industry myself, selecting the perfect coloured gemstone and handcrafting a ring for me may have seemed like a daunting challenge for Nicky on the outset.
Nickys intuitive approach to meeting my expectations as well as his wealth of skill and knowledge led to me receiving a piece of jewellery I truly treasure.
My Australian golden orange sapphire- not heat treated and fully traceable in a handcrafted triple claw solitaire setting featuring pave diamonds is my favourite piece of jewellery! Thanks Nicky!

Nicky worked closely with my husband to bring his vision to life for my engagement ring. The ring was beautiful, totally unique in every way, and such a special piece of very treasured jewellery to have a ring that symbolises such a special place, the Waimakariri River in New Zealand. (& Nicky is a joy to work with, of course & with such passion for his craft) 💍

Nicky is an exceptional jeweller. His attention to detail and workmanship is simply stunning. I have had multiple pieces made and will to continue with him as my jeweller, as the final product never disappoints.

Nicky’s handmade craftsmanship and attention to detail is second to none. I have worked with Nicky on several projects now and each one is an exquisite masterpiece. He takes the time to make everything perfect, and I couldn’t be happier! Highly recommended..👌🏼

Nicky is a pleasure to work with and the jewellery he makes is of a very high standard. He has made several pieces for me and I am a very happy customer!

Exquisite hand made jeweler, easy to work with talented designer and master craftsman.
