Nelken Jewellers

I took my mother's engagement ring to Mr Nelken to be resized and reset. He quoted for the work . However, once he started the work it was apparent that it was in far worse condition than expected. But Mr Nelken carried out thr extra work at no extra cost. His workmanship is beautiful and the ring looks like new. I can't thank him enough.
I became very tearful when I saw how beautifully the ring had been restored as mum hasn't been gone long. He is such a compassionate man and an incredible jeweller. Very highly recommended

Thank you so much

I recently went to Nelken’s in Borehamwood to have my gold chain shortened. Price was very competitive and they carried out a fab job, just what I wanted , they even updated my clasp as extra for no charge. Turnaround time was quick, only a few days and I received a text to inform me that item was ready to collect.

It’s my first time using them, prior to that I always went to Hatton Garden but I think I have found my local jewellers now and will stay local, if and when, I need work doing. Thank you ❤

Mr Nelken's warm personality and professionalism put me at ease the minute we had our first meeting. He took time to understand exactly what I was looking for but at the same time quite sensitively offered his invaluable advice. If you want your jewellery to be treated with extreme care and creativity then look no further than Nelken Jewellers.

I highly recommend Nelken Jewellers. They are trustworthy, professional, reasonably priced and with excellent quality of work. I had a family heirloom gold chain that had broken in two. Within 24 hours they messaged me to collect. Seamless repair.

Re-set a couple of very sentimental pieces for me. The workmanship and design were excellent. Service was exemplary - and everything was explained thoroughly. Very competitive pricing. So thrilled with the results! Highly recommend.

Excellent service renewing watch batteries! Fast & efficient but also honest. Jeweller tested the batteries in the arches & found one to be fully charged. This was pointed out to me & we kept the original battery & we weren’t charged!
Always excellent service from this excellent Jeweller who has been in Borehamwood as long as I can remember!

Mr Nelken has been in Borehamwood for as long as I can remember. He is always ready to help and also go the extra mile to give the customer what they would like.
He was so helpful sorting my sons ring that unfortunately had to be cut off during surgery and as we couldn't get our son to the shop to get his finger measured, Mr Nelken gave all his professional experience and our son was able to wear his sentimental ring once again.
And for that a big "Thank You ".
I wouldn't shop anywhere else.
Fully recommend this jewelers.

My family have been going to Nelken Jewellers for about 40 years. Their professional, helpful and courteous service has been exemplary. We wouldn't go anywhere else.

I have to say Mr Nelken is a craftsman and wizard. He has repaired a few things of mine to perfection that another jeweller failed to do.. definitely use go to him and he is always happy to advise.

Vip treatment all the way the omega geneve has been my dream watch for years I was so used to being judged as soon as I walked into big city dealers I almost gave up then I asked in neikins the owner was a true genuine gentleman never turned me away I was allowed to pay it off on top of that he polished it being 9ct gold it gleams as well as a years warranty

Handshake and warm welcome every time I popped in he even ordered me a custom long leather strap as my wrist is prone to swelling I seriously cannot thank them enough 👌

Mr Nelken fitted a bigger winder button on my 83 year old mums 1970's Tissot watch as she struggled to wind it. I went to collect today and he made no charge at all.
Good old fashioned service is still alive & well at Nelken Jewellers in Borehamwood. The shop has been in the town for 40 years with such great service I can see why. Thank you again 👍

Always brilliant. Reliable, affordable and great customer service with a smile. Mr Nelken and his team are superb, very knowledgeable and helpful.

I’ve used Nelken a few times over the years and the service is great and the staff are helpful and friendly. This time I had my old wedding ring stretched. Fab service, fair price and the ring now fits and looks cleaner than brighter than ever.

We so appreciated Mr. Nelken’s personable and professional care with my husband’s ring resizing and engraving. He made sure to get it to us in time before a family wedding and we couldn’t be happier with the quality!

Mr Nelken is a great jeweller who is honest and competitively priced. Friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable in his craft. I have bought some lovely pieces from him and have also had some jewellery altered. I am extremely happy with the service I have received and highly recommend him.

Nelken have done a fantastic job in restoring an engagement ring from 1950 to be even more glorious than original but without changing its appearance. A replacement diamond for a lost stone, strengthening of the stone settings together with addition of gold to allow the ring to be resized. So sensitively worked on as they understood the sentiment behind it. Thank you so much.
For anyone considering having restoration work done, look no further. Julie, Elstree.

I stumbled across Nelken Jewellers whilst working in the area.

Entered the shop pretty blind, in a sense of not knowing what I was looking for, solid/hollow gold etc.

I was greeted by Sandy who took the time to show me what they had in stock and educated me on what I was looking at.

Since then, I drove almost an hour to purchase the item and continued to use Nelken as appose to Jewellers near to home. Biggest reason for this is how friendly and helpful Sandy was, her personality and professionalism is what won them the sale.

Big thank you to Edwin, who done a blinder polishing my grandfathers pocket watch which was well overdue some TLC.

The business has been trading for years, established in 1890 in fact. This does not surprise me, lovely people. I enjoy spending money with business' like Nelken, happy to go the extra mile for new and existing customers.

Thank you Sandy and Edwin.

Popped it this afternoon as watch battery needed replacing, advised to leave the watch and come back in 20 minutes. Absolutely top service provided and a very competitive price for the battery replacement. Highly recommend this jewellers.

23 years ago my Husband bought my beautiful engagement ring from Nelken Jewellers. I recently made a trip from North Cambridgeshire, where we live now, to see Mr Nelken to get this ring professionally cleaned and valued. It brought back some lovely memories and my beautiful ring looks like new. Mr Nelken and his team are just lovely and I am really looking forward to going back to collect the bespoke ring they are making for me from some of my late Mother’s jewellery.

So I am updating my review as I have just been back to collect my new ring. It has totally exceeded my expectations. I am absolutely delighted with the end result. I will treasure it forever and it’s lovely to have a unique piece of jewellery that has my Mother’s wedding ring in it. I highly recommend this service.

Nelken's, especially Edwin is the best jeweller I have ever had the privilege to meet and we have known each other for many, many years. He will never let you down ever. Thank you for everything. Helen Howard.
