Our Clients Testimonials

Went all round town looking for a particular piece of jewellery and the other shops and the market couldn't help. After explaining to Catherine what we wanted she said she'd phone us in a few days with some information. She phoned as promised with the news she had located what we wanted and to call in. The pendant was perfect and very reasonably priced - so we bought it. We have since wanted advice about a ring we had. Catherine gave an unbiased opinion which was helpful to us. This shop is now our first port of call for anything in the jewellery line.

First time shopping here I wanted something special for an 80th Birthday present and wasn't sure what. The lady who served me was extremely helpful and very lovely. I bought a beautiful Amber necklace and matching earrings which my mother in law was very happy with. Thanks for your help.
Suzanne HooperOctober 2023
Having just purchased an engagement ring from Catherine Bishop I have to say the service provided and the finished product are of the highest quality. From the initial discussion to the final article it was an absolute pleasure to deal with Catherine and her attentive staff every step of the way. As someone severely lacking in knowledge of diamonds and jewellery in general I found their professional advice exceptionally helpful and my fiancée and I are extremely happy with the outcome.
