I absolutely love going into this gallery!!! The pieces are always so stunning and I'm always impressed with the different artists who have their own styles. The staff are great at talking to you and finding out what you want and then picking out the right piece. I enjoy wearing all the rings and earrings I've bought - I just wish I could wear them all - all the time!! I'd be happy if I could buy my jewellery here for the rest of my life. It's always such a joy looking at the new stuff even though it makes you want to buy them...
