I had a ring made to order and it’s beautiful. I wanted it to be part of a set and you would never guess that the ring wasn’t made at the same time! Great communication on WhatsApp with drawings of designs to choose from. Lovely helpful staff! Great job all round. Thank you!

I can only offer the the highest praise of Artfull Expression. David and his team offer a unique and very personal touch to what can be a stressful challenge.When looking around the JQ, I had been asking to what was available vs what my partner may like.When I approached Artfull Expression, David asked me what my partner liked and to get to understand them; which I was drawn in to. This played major factor of ring design.Through WhatsApp, he managed to send designs which his team had drawn up, which was an easy process. There we honed to an agreeable design, in good time, over arguably the busiest period. Add to this a very good price for such an individual piece of artwork.David and his team take pride in their approach, care, customer base and their brilliant trade.I will be going back for the wedding bands, and I would recommend to anyone looking for such, and to their jewellery, to check them out.

I commissioned a sliver crown thumb ring, when I describe my vision I felt there was an instant understanding and after a bit of fine tuning we came up with my perfect design. The craftsmanship is fabulous quality and I'm so pleased with the end result. When I need more unique jewellery I will make Artfull Expression my first stop.

Commissioned a silver letter opener from David and the team here at Artfull Expression. Throughout every step I was talked through options, every request was considered and communicated. The outcome was a beautiful piece that is going to make an excellent gift. Many thanks!

We are so pleased to have found David and the team at Artfull Expression. The team helped me develop a design from which David has created a beautiful spinner ring. I absolutely love it. For a surprise my husband bought me gorgeous earrings which match and we have also purchased one of David’s exquisite, hand made watches. The customer service has been fantastic. We will definitely return.

Really happy with the ring I had made here. David and Josey were courteous and helpful, I didn't experience any pressure when I was a little uncertain about what I wanted and they had lots of advice for me.Very happy with the fit and appearance of the final product!

David and Sonia have been amazing! They helped design my wedding ring which fits perfectly next to my unique but unusually shaped engagement ring. They also listened to my specific requests, kept me updated and produced a beautiful ring all within a very tight timeframe! They are so friendly and accomodating, i cannot recommend the team at Artfull Expression highly enough

David was very patient listening to all our ideas for our wedding rings, even when we changed our minds completely in the final stages of he design process

I recently purchased a gold necklace and matching brooch for my wife's birthday and both of us were delighted by the transaction from start to finish. She wanted a contemporary design, which is harder to find in the Jewellery Quarter than you might imagine.We discovered Artfull Expression and it was exactly what we were looking for. The range of choice was extensive and when she spotted her ideal design for a necklace in silver, we were delighted when David Hendley confirmed it could be made up in gold. In addition a brooch could also be made in the same design.David provided a quotation for the pieces which was pleasantly less than I expected and we proceeded with the purchase.David kept me informed throughout. He couldn't have been more helpful and when we took delivery, it was exactly as we hoped.I can't praise David and his company enough and I'm sure we will use his services again.

David went above and beyond sourcing a special piece of jewellery for my daughter’s 18th birthday, which she was absolutely delighted with. Cannot recommend this Company enough. Excellent service. I am lucky enough to have a couple of silver bangles from Artfull Expression. Brilliant craftsmanship.

I was gifted a gorgeous bespoke necklace from Artfull Expression for my 21st birthday and I couldn't be more in love, it is absolutely stunning and it's something I'll have forever. I can't recommend them highly enough!!

I contacted David re the possibility of a bespoke piece for my daughter's 21st,at what I knew to be short notice (2 and a bit weeks).I shouldn't have worried.Nothing was a problem,I sent my design idea to David,he pretty much instantly replied with what I can only describe as a perfect representation of what I had in mind.All through the process,David kept me informed re progress,and my commission was done with days to spare, delivered to my door.I should mention affordability, absolutely great value for a bespoke piece, considering the craftsmanship,skill and years of knowledge required.I would give 6 stars if I could .Thanks again to David,and all at Artfull Expression.PS My Daughter loved it!!!!!!Brian

The whole experience of choosing our rings was an essential ingredient in our wedding plans. Ours is a small and simple registry office ceremony, and until we decided to get married neither of us was expecting to get particularly emotional about our rings! But David was absolutely wonderful and the time spent choosing rings was beautiful. We found exactly the rings we wanted and we both love wearing them.

All sorts of styles, simple to ornate jewellery handmade by people from Birmingham or connections to its school of jewellery.Bespoke service offered, I had a repair done, knowledgeable staff.

I contacted David in lockdown and after reopening they were able to create me a bespoke silver pendant for my daughter’s 18th in a week! David was incredibly careful to ensure it was to our exact specifications and contacted us at every step of the process to check we were happy. Couldn’t be more pleased with the end product, price and amazing service. Thank you very much!

Artful Expressions is always my first stop when visiting the jewellery quarter. I know every piece is unique. The jewellers are happy to adapt pieces for me - for example the drop on a beautiful pair of earrings was shortened to suit me better. I highly recommend Artful Expressions.

This shop is a jewel of a find. In the midst of all of the ring and diamond dealers and all of the traditional jewellery shops this shop sits inconspicuously. It's unusual to find a shop that offers something really different in the Jewellery Quarter but this is it. I was looking for a present for a hard-to-buy for male friend and I found it here straight away - a very special guitar key ring in silver with an inscription. Everything in the shop felt original and beautifully designed and I could have spent a fortune in there had I had the money! I was hard not to impulse buy. If you are looking for something that is both original, beautifully designed and affordable, look here first. I will be back.

We have had 2 beautiful rings made here , David’s skill and attention to detail have been so appreciated and to be able to have our ideas so carefully listened to and then made in to wonderful rings has been a real pleasure and we are completely delighted with the service and finished products!

Great service - everything I ordered was as requested and on time. Very pleased with my purchases - and I would definitely recommend at least paying a visit to the shop - they have some very beautiful and unusual pieces of jewellery

Great selection of products from a wide range of independent jewellers, makers and craftspeople. Staff are very friendly and helpful and they offer brilliant support and expertise when commissioning custom bespoke items. All of the staff are jewellers and craftspeople themselves and understand the process inside out. Definitely recommend visiting if you are trying to find a special gift, planning a wedding or just love beautiful and unique jewellery.

My daughter chose a ring for her 21st birthday. Unfortunately she didn’t like the stone so we asked for the ring to be modified. This was done so efficiently and professionally and we are delighted with the ring and the service we received. Thank you

Great find in the jewellery Quarter. It's a store that has been set up to promote you artist. The choice of jewellery is amazing, great one offs. The lady who severed us could not have been more helpful. We were able to get what we wanted. Would highly recommend if you are in area, go take a look. Treat yourself

This is a great shop in JQ if you are looking for something different from the rest. I had a bracelet made from here some time ago and I always receive great comments about it when I wear it. I currently have my eye on a beautiful ring which I intend to purchase for my next birthday. Great customer service here too with no pressure to buy. Love that!
