We're delighted to announce a fantastic competition to win just that running from now to the end of the year.

Every customer who has a Facebook account & makes a purchase from Rings By Design or our shop Polished Jewellery (including customers who have something repaired, cleaned or rhodium plated) are eligible too enter.

All you have to do is post a picture of your purchase or repair on your own Facebook page and tag in Rings By Design. What could be easier?

The competition closes at midnight on 31st December 2017 and the winner will be announced early in the new year,  So what would you buy if we gave you £500 to spend? While you're pondering that why not get posting and tagging?  It could be you! 

Well I'm not going to pretend it wasn't a nervous 30 minutes or so but I'm relieved to announce that the transition from our old website to our new one is now complete and that it went smoothly without incident. (No mean feat considering how clueless I am when it comes to web hosting, name servers, DNS tags etc).

I hope you all think the new site is a big improvement and you don't mind me taking this opportunity to say Thank You to a few people:
- To Ameila Thomson who did most of the work despite claiming she knew nothing about building websites (A bit of a fib I think judging by the result).
- To Roger from Avant Garde Photography who did many of the products shots for us.
- And last but certainly not least to our fantastic customers who allowed us to photograph their rings and share their stories and feedback on the site.

To celebrate the launch of the new site and the 15 year anniversary of the Rings By Design brand we're running a couple of promotions for purchases made before the end of October. Buy a ladys and a gents wedding rings and get 20% off the cost of the gents ring and for same sex couples buy any two rings and get 20% off the least expensive ring. Give us a call on 0191 5843338 if you'd like to arrange a free, no-obligation consultation.

​Those who know me will tell you it's not often that I'm lost for words but when our name was announced as the Winner of the North Of England Wedding Awards last week you could have knocked me over with a feather. 

I'm not sure why I was so surprised really; Graham is a very skilled jeweller and we do try extremely hard to make our customers happy but the fact that so many people took time out of their busy days to vote for us and said such lovely things about us really blew me away.

To all our customers - Old and new - Whether you found the time to vote or not - Thank you. It really means a lot.

Kind regards,
​Ian & Graham - Rings By Design
