Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you found our website easy to use, but we’re sorry the free gift wasn’t the colour you expected. We didn’t want to delay your order, so we sent an alternative colour as the one shown is now due back in stock in January. We appreciate your understanding and will pass your comments to the team to make this clearer in future.

hank you for your kind feedback. We're so pleased your order arrived safely and in good order once again — we really appreciate your continued support!
Great service as always
Great service as always. My necklace came well packaged and is lovely. It is much bigger than expected and quite striking design. It is a gift and I am sure the recipient will love it. The free jewellery box is very attractive too but not worth the amount it says in the book/online.

Shiptons are quality for goods, service and delivery
I have been ordering from Shiptons for many years, and so too has my daughter. They items are really lovely and well made, the service on ordering and delivery is excellent. The staff in all departments are friendly, polite and knowledgeable. If refunds are required they are just as good. I would recommend Shiptons as second to none.

My thoughts
I have purchased jewellery items from Shipton a number of times over the years (latest being Oct 2025). All in all satisfied with the customer communication and care, the management of returns, secure packaging and the jewellery items look attractive, soundly made and worthy.

Shipton are great I would definetly recommend without hesitation !!!
Over a ,number of years I have bought several necklaces which were well designed, of top quality nests and much admired. This necklace was made of cheap quality beads in horrible colours and definitely did not match up to expectations !
However I have ordered two Blossom flower bracelets and I hope the will as good as my three lovely necklaces which I purchased earlier this year.

Thank you for your feedback. I’m so sorry to hear that this particular necklace didn’t meet your expectations — that’s certainly not the quality you should expect from us. I’ll make sure your comments are passed to our design and quality teams for review.
I’m really pleased to hear, though, that you’ve loved your previous necklaces and that you’ve chosen our Blossom Flower Bracelets — we’re confident they’ll live up to your earlier pieces.

Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re so sorry your first parcel went missing, but we’re very glad the replacement arrived safely and that you’re pleased with your bracelet. It’s lovely to hear that you’ve shopped with us in our stores before, and we’re delighted your first online experience was a positive one.
Beautifully made presented and packaged.
I was absolutely thrilled when I opened the box and saw the beautiful brooch I had ordered for a friend's birthday. It was exquisitely made and I could almost make out the expression on the horse's face. One I have seen in real life many times. Not only was the jewellery beautiful but the service was excellent too.

Very happy customer
I had to return one item (amethyst ring) from my order as the colour of the stone was not as per the catalogue. I was offered an exchange up to £10 more than the value, which was good and I found one a bit more than that but used the £10 voucher I'd had with my original order. I was able to return it Freepost and I was kept up-to-date by Sunny with progress. My alternative ring was turned around by Sunny in 24 hours and I was surprised to find not only was a £5 voucher enclosed but a lovely amethyst keyring! How's that for service?
