I purchased a watch and they were happy to take out a few links, plus for me to bring the watch back for any further adjustment. They also polished off any fingerprints and gift-wrapped the box really nicely. If you have Tesco clubcard deals vouchers they can be used, making a purchase that bit cheaper.

Very personalised service, with an individual sales adviser who really knows the trade and product ranges. When making a prospective purchase you are offered tea, coffee, champagne and handmade chocolates. We have purchased from there, and were given a gift box containing a bottle of pink champagne with a Mallory label and box of chocs. A real sense of luxury about the place, and many things to save for and aspire to!

I visited this store during my lunchbreak: I wanted to buy ear-rings as I am heading towards my…read more40's and I am afraid the jewel-less, make-up less look is no longer the order of the day! I have an allergy to zinc and nickel so all my jewels are 18 carats gold. Like most jewellers in the UK, Mallorys are particularly keen on selling you alloys (9 carats gold, i.e. 9 parts of gold for every 24 parts of metal) under the name of gold. They treated me with the utmost contempt, acting as if my allergy problems were psychological, and alloys (i.e. 9 carats gold) were the same thing as 18 carats gold. BTW gold is more expensive than nickel or zinc, so when jewellers sell you 9 carats gold rather than 18 carats gold, they are cheating you big time. One of my great-uncles was a jeweller (meilleur ouvrier de france, i.e. he came top of his promotion) so I used to buy from him, but unfortunately he is now retired. Another reason for their contempt was that I am French and they just couldn't believe that I lived and worked in Bath and was not a tourist. Hum, when I go on holiday, I do not wear a suit! They made fun of my accent, asked me how long I had been living here, whether I often went 'home' etc. I wouldn't try on any of the cheap 9 carats stuff they had, nor would I consider the cheap diamonds they tried to force on me. Result, I very nearly ended up being expelled from the shop by their security guy! Advice: don't walk in unless you are willing to buy whatever they want you to. Very pushy salesmen, none of them professional jewellers.

Nice little shop and they have a variety of items in different price ranges.

This is not a cheap shop, but more high-end. They do have some more affordable items in some parts of the shop.

When I first visited this establishment, the proprietor or manageress gave me decent service, but…read morethen begged me for a Yelp review. When I told her I didn't use Yelp, she urged me to start, so as to give them a review. This was circa five years ago. I came back several times, watching both services and behaviours degrade. Their quality, not their prices, are cheap. I bought a rather costly ring, only for the stone to fall out. When I mentioned this, the same person was hostile, telling me I should go elsewhere for that sort of problem. Frequent this business if you like being blamed for someone else's bad day

In the winding back streets on South Gate's shopping district you'll find Azendi. Everything about…read morethis shop screams bling; from its oh-so-shiny window displays to the sparkling display stands inside. This shop is a jewellery lover's dream. There's a mix of silver, gold, necklaces, earrings, watches and cufflinks to suit both boys and girls. The prices are pretty varied too - ranging from £30 to £200 for necklaces alone. The designs are very trendy and of the moment, so I wouldn't expect to find a classic piece here. But what they do stock is fun, unique items for men and women.

Eureka! A quirky, fun and friendly gift shop in Bath's city centre…read more This lovely-dovey-hippy-dippy shop is filled with candles, hand-made bags, incense, jewellery and silver ware all made using fairly traded materials. The prices range dramatically from the sterling silver necklaces to the woven handbags (unsurprisingly) so it means that this shop serves any sort of budget. Their stock doesn't change regularly so I don't visit often, but when I do I remember how much I love their products and the exceptionally friendly service.

This place is great for whiling away fifteen minutes or so, when you're waiting for someone, or…read moreyou're just plain bored. It has a variety of hippy-type goods from the world over, including dream catchers, incense, bongos, hookahs and other sorts of world goods. I must admit, though, that this place sells things designed for decoration rather than practical purposes. For example, I went here to buy a bongo for making some recordings, but every one I tried out had a flabby skin that made a dull fart of a noise and was consequently useless. Oh, and by the way, I've heard that the dream catchers don't actually catch dreams.

The Gold and Platinum Studio is definintely the best jewellery shop in Bath. The owners Elizabeth…read moreand Michael Parsons are delightful people and not at all jewellery snobs (unlike their nearby competitor); they are warm, friendly and welcoming and love to talk about jewellery with you. If you don't recognise the name, they used to be the Gold and Silver Studio in Queen Street. Michael makes most of the jewellery that they sell, which is generally in either gold or platinum though they do also sell some silver, plus they do sell some pieces from other makers. They will also undertake commissions for bespoke pieces, and repair, remodel and value your own items. The only reason I do not come here more often is that I can't afford it, but I regularly drool outside the windows!

They are completely honest and transparent with their advice even if it means they miss out on a sale - they truly care about their clients.
