Recently bought an engagement ring for my partner, and the experience was amazing from start to finish - both in-store and online. A special thank you to Zoe for all her help.

Engagement Ring
My partner and I visited James Porter & Son today and we were served by the most helpful, patient and lovely Sarah Gillan. We spoke at length about what engagement ring I wanted and we found the perfect one. She took time to explain the GIA certification, the scaling of cuts and qualities. We both thoroughly enjoyed our experience and did not feel pressured one bit. Thank you again.

You're always asking if you can trust the people helping you to get you the best product at the best price. I can honestly say that I left James Porter & Sons with the best product I could have afforded at the best price they could have sold it to me. The staff were friendly(especially Laura!), the experience was straightforward, and the service was extremely efficient and customer-orientated. I cannot recommend them enough as a jewellers you can genuinely trust.

What amazing service from Molly..
What amazing service from Molly... Even though I didn't know what I was looking for other than a special birthday gift!
Molly listened to my description of my wife's likes / dislikes made a few suggestions, was respectful when I dismissed some and used that to refine her offerings leading to the purchase of a gift that my wife absolutely loved.
It was such a pleasant experience (all be it my wallet is a tad lighter) and I would not hesitate to recommend anyone to call on her assistance.

Genuine care, passion, quality and value
Thank you so much to Jacqueline and the team at James Porter & Son! They saved the day when Chisholm Hunter completely let me down! It is wonderful to see such genuine care, passion, quality, value for money, amazing customer service and results!! We had what was needed on time for someone very special to share (now passed). I cannot thank them enough.

Engagement ring experience
I recently bought my girlfriend an engagement ring, and unfortunately the experience wasn’t what I had hoped for. When I first picked the ring, I noticed it was scratched. I mentioned this to the woman who helped me, and she assured me it would be resolved once the ring was resized. Thankfully, the scratch was removed after resizing.
However, the service itself afterwards left me disappointed. Once I had propossed we called ahead to book the resizing ( one week after our proposal) we were advised over the phone to leave the car and make a day of it as they would offer a small celebration and offer drinks in the shop for our special day, this gave the impression the process would take some time. Instead, when we arrived at the jewellers, we were in and out within 5 minutes with no drinks or celebrations offered. During this time, the employee showed little compassion for our propsoal and offered no real reassurance when I raised concerns about the scratch on the ring. The employee didn’t explain the process and didn’t seem to offer any empathy towards our concerns because the ring had already been purchased. For such an important purchase, I expected a more supportive and reassuring experience.
Overall, while the ring itself turned out fine in the end, the customer service fell way short of what I was expecting, especially considering the amount of money spent on something as meaningful as an engagement ring.
Would not reccomend.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us, and please accept our sincere apologies that your visit did not feel as special as it should have. An engagement ring is one of the most meaningful purchases you can make, and we are truly sorry to hear that you felt let down by the service you received.
The member of staff who assisted you believed she had reassured you about the quality of the ring and was under the impression you left happy with it once the scratch was resolved. On the day of your resizing appointment, we understand things felt rushed. Unfortunately, as your appointment ran later than planned and you were keen to have the ring back the same day, our team had to move the process along quickly to ensure it met the workshop cut-off. That said, we completely appreciate that this meant you didn’t receive the level of care and celebration you were rightly expecting — and for that, we are truly sorry.
We never want any of our customers to feel unsupported, especially at such a significant moment. Your feedback will be shared with our team so we can make sure future couples always feel celebrated, reassured, and cared for, no matter the circumstances.
We’re pleased the ring itself is now perfect for you, and we will be using your feedback to make sure future customers always feel fully supported and reassured.
Careful service
Fast, efficient, careful and professional. My watch was less than £200 bought online but they made it feel like I’d spent £1000. 100% recommend these guys.
