Testimonials
Having searched high and low for a quality and authentic ring, I luckily stumbled upon Friar House from Battle. The selection of unique and stunning rings coupled with the fantastic support and service from their staff made the decision for me to use them very easy. I will certainly be using them again in the future and would recommend them to anyone. (Destination London).
"We arrived to the beautiful old Jewellery Shop in Battle, through a pre-booked appointment, where we were shown a truly outstanding selection of engagement rings. From start to finish the attention to detail both Sue and Maria gave us the simply phenomenal quality and range of rings made the whole visit the most exciting part of our engagement to date. We were presented with not simply a small handful of rings to choose from, but an array of beautiful and very attractive pieces of antique jewellery, all offering a mysterious and exciting history so bereft in modern high street jewellers. We were extremely grateful for the personal approach and not simply a desire to persuade us to buy the most expensive ring on offer. Friar House also offered by far the best value for money we had found before trying on rings, so much so that we cancelled other appointments nearby and settled on a simply outstanding ring. The best bit (apart from the ring ofcourse!) Remembering where and when we bought it. Highly recommended." (Destination East Sussex).
" My friend and I journeyed to Battle to see the 1066 site. My friend spotted you and soon we were gazing entranzed by at all the beautiful things in your window. I fell in love with a Victorian Bangle Bracelet and my friend a beautiful Gate Bracelet. We are both delighted with our purchases, and also enjoyed meeting and talking with you. We have spent much time browsing your great website! I'm so glad that I found you and I hope that many others do!" (Destination U.S.A).
" I received the Ring today. It is so gorgeous and looks wonderful on my long thin fingers. Thank you for such prompt and efficient service". (Destination U.S.A)
" I have just received my beautiful Victorian Ring. It is exactly as it appeared on the website. I loved the personal contact involved in purchasing the Ring. The service is warm, friendly and highly efficiant. I will be back!" (Destination Ireland).
" I found Friar House online and noted their big selection. When I went down to see them I found them extremely friendly, accomodating and helpful. They let me take my time and answered all my questions no matter how simple they must have seemed. I strongly recommend them if you are looking for Antique Jewellery". (Destination London).
" Thank you for the fast delivery of the Ring- it's beautiful! Thank you for all your help and advice on the way. I will surely recommend you to all my friends and I am sure I will purchase from you soon again!" (Destination Sweden).
" From my first contact via email through to visiting the shop the service I received from the Friar House team was second to none. An excellent website detailing all items in stock made it easy for me to select those I wanted to view. When I arrived at the shop I found both Maria and Susan made the whole experience of choosing my engagement ring a joy. They were professional throughout with a wealth of knowledge that they were happy to share. Best of all I found them very friendly and approachable, something I have found lacking in other jewellery establishments. They offered good advice and alternatives and allowed me to take my time and try on as many items as I needed to to make the right choice. The ring I finally chose is absolutely beautiful, I love knowing that it has given others pleasure before me and that it has some history already associated with it. In addition to helping me make the right choice Friar House was able to get the ring re-sized ready for me to take home later in the day, accompanied with a valuation for insurance purposes - both unexpected but very welcome bonuses! The location of Friar House in Battle is special too, although an hour or so from London it is definitely worth the trip, I would recommend this Jeweller to anyone looking for unusual antique jewellery and first class service." (Destination East Sussex).
" The Ring and valuation have arrived safely! I'm not into superlatives but I find the Ring magnificent with perfect proportions. That you very much for selling it to me!" (Destination Germany).
" I so enjoyed my visit to your store. The Antique Rose Gold flat link Bracelet I purchased is truly a treasure that I will enjoy and associate with lovely memories of my trip to England." (Destination U.S.A).
" I just wanted to email to say thanks to the two ladies who helped me choose the perfect Ring for me on Friday. I eventually got the 1920's panel Ruby one, but the reason I am emailing is that you showed me great patience and respect when I was trying to make up my mind- which I truly appreciate. Thanks for spending the time with me and my husband.... I really have a unique piece to remember my Grandad by." (Destination Surrey).
