From our initial meeting with Raffini, we felt immediately comfortable and in safe hands. Not only was he professional but down to earth and patient. We were kept 100% apart of the process and got to watch the incredible transformation of idea to finished product. He is a true craftsman and we can't fault the end result. It's pure perfection. Thank you, we can't recommend your skills, manner or genuineness enough. Remarkable customer service.

Working with Raffini was an absolutely wonderful experience. I had recently gotten engaged and the ring was a family heirloom from my grandmother. After searching online for jewelers I found Raffini and was immediately impressed with all of his great reviews and examples of his work. I contacted him via email and met with him shortly after to get the ring resized and also to strengthen the band. He provided me with a fair quote and finished the job in a timely manner while also communicating with me during the entire process. I would recommend him to anyone and felt that I was in trusted hands the whole time. Thanks, Raffini!

Dealing with Raffini jewelers was flawless. The service and the end product is at top quality hands down. The craftsmanship is a marvel and faultless. I recommend this business to those who have keen eye for quality jewelry

It was a great pleasure working with Raffini in designing my beautiful engagement ring! The finished product was just perfect and I have received so many complements while wearing it! The service we received was very personal and I felt like we have become more educated on precious stones and jewellery after the planning process. We would highly recommend Raffini to anyone.

I met with several jewellers and 'diamond experts' searching for the perfect engagement ring, and more importantly, the perfect experience. I liked Raffini the second I met him. He was knowledgable, engaging and a pleasure to deal with, which made it an easy decision. Raffini made my wife the most beautiful engagement ring. It was exactly what she wanted, and she loves it. After the engagement I was proud to take my my wife to meet Raffini. Not surprisingly, we then commissioned him to make our wedding rings as well. An absolutely A++ experience. Thanks Raffini! See you soon! Dr Hugh and Dr Isobel Porter!

I found Raffini through a google search and found that his track record is impeccable and thought this was too good to be true! Working with Raffini to create the wedding bands for my fiance and I was the most seamless part of our wedding planning! My fiance and I are quite different people and Raffini was able to read both of our minds and create wedding bands that suited each of our needs perfectly. He gave us the freedom to explore of our own tastes and opinions and provide insightful advice based on his experience and knowledge. I would recommend him to any of my friends and family. Raffini - thank you for creating our beautiful pieces and making us feel at home in your home away from home!

Raffini has created the perfect wedding rings for us! He was a pleasure to work with through out the process from helping us design the rings and the look we wanted, all the way through to completion. His advice and input was invaluable. The workmanship was fantastic, and he was happy to accommodate our late request for engraving. Nothing was too much trouble. The rings were completed when stated and he was always available for any questions we would have. We would definitely recommend his services, and we will be using him again for any other bespoke jewellry requirements

Raffini Jewellers are true professionals and focused on customer satisfaction. Extremely easy to deal with, deliver what they promise with the end product being exquisite. My 'dress' ring became an engagement ring, with two wedding bands then being required. Raffini has now promised both rings will be handcrafted within two (2) weeks!! I can't wait to see them now. If my engagement ring is anything to go by, they will be beautiful!

My experience with Raffini was a fantastic one. From the initial meeting where he took the time to educate me on the various qualities of diamonds, through to his guidance and collaboration on the ring design, Raffini is truly a master of his craft. The end result was a custom ring that was not only stunning but unique. Raffini was also very accommodating when we had to get the ring resized! I highly recommend working with Raffini and I will definitely be passing on the details to everyone I know! Thank you Raffini for sharing all of your knowledge and creating an amazing engagement ring for us. We will definitely be coming back for the wedding bands!

We really enjoyed the whole process. Raffini service is top notch! His work and attention to detail is simply remarkable as you can see from the attached photo. I am absolutely in love with my wedding and engagement rings!! I highly recommend Raffini.

My (now) fiance went to Raffini to design my engagement ring and it is amazing!!! I had no input (it was a total surprise!) and it's my perfect engagement ring. It's so unique, yet beautiful in it's total simplicity. My fiance said that Raffini made the process seamless from beginning to end. He talked him though everything and together they came up with the perfect ring. I have since met Raffini myself as the ring needed to be resized (so hard to get the size right when it's a total surprise!) and he also made that process so seamless. It's a wonderful experience talking to him about the whole process. He doesn't treat it as a transaction, he's so interested in the love story! We will definitely be going back to purchase our wedding bands. Thank you so much Raffini! Myself and my fiance (Elliot) could not recommend you highly enough xx

I can't recommend Raffini highly enough! Every aspect of my dealing with him was of the highest order and, as well as being an expert craftsman, he was extremely patient and easy to deal with. I already had a diamond that I wanted to get set into an engagement ring. I initially visited a number of different jewellers in Sydney but Raffini made me feel so relaxed and confident that I knew the end product would be amazing. It was a no brainer to choose him. He has a very easy going manner and listened to my thoughts and ideas. His recommendation on the setting was perfect and the entire process was so easy. The finished ring looks absolutely stunning and my partner loves it. The detail and workmanship is amazing. If you want the perfect engagement ring, look no further than Raffini.

Thank you Raffini for creating our beautiful tourmaline engagement ring! We enjoyed the whole process, from the moment we met you to discuss what we had in mind to the final piece. You didn't overwhelm us with too much information or too many decisions or be too pushy and the end result was something that means so much to us and is even better than we could ever have imagined! I'm glad we trusted you to make this dream come true!!

Amazing end result! Raffini Thank you for your outstanding craftsmanship on the engagement ring. You were very informative and made the process easy throughout. We had some last minute changes but you made it happen. Your reviews do the end result justice!

Raffini did a terrific job with my engagement ring! We met on several occasions throughout the crafting process. He was very helpful and approachable throughout and was happy to answer any of my questions. He also went above and beyond to fit our meetings around my busy schedule, including once on his birthday!

Raffini was excellent to work with throughout the entire ring design process. He provided ideas on the design, kept me informed throughout the process, and had great attention to detail. His price was reasonable when compared to other options. Definitely recommend.

Raffini is passionate about what he does. His quality of work is excellent, as well as the service. Thought that having a personal goldsmith is only for very rich people, that is not true. He is affordable, gives good advice and does not sell you things you do not need. Recommend highly.

My fiance loves the ring that Raffini made. As I had proposed before I had a ring. We decided to create a custom designed engagement ring together. My fiance had a unique design in mind and wanted to re create it. Raffini was very welcoming and patient throughout the entire process as we turned my fiances vision into a reality. The quality of the ring is impeccable and I would definitely recommend Raffini to anyone who wants quality custom made jewelry.

Absolutely amazed with Raffini and his work. He made the process easier and enjoyable. Raffini explained things clearly and concisely. My fiance and I have already seen him and look forward to working with him again for our wedding bands. Cannot recommend him highly enough.

We had a great experience here with our ring resizing. He was very helpful, not only did he offer his' suggestions based on his experience but also listened to what we wanted to do. Very patient and professional with us as well since I kept going back and forth with which size to resize the ring too. We're very happy with our resizing! Thank you so much!

Raffini acted incredibly professional since the first meeting to the final delivery. He understood what I needed and helped me to take it to the next level by always highlighting the design pros and cons so that I could make an informed decision. I made some changes after the structure inspection and he never hesitated on listening and working with me to create the perfect ring. I gave him an Opal to design a ring and he gave back a master piece. I would definitely recommend him and if I could give Raffini 10 stars I would! Carlos

The shape of the engagement ring made us think that a custom designed wedding ring would be the best option and a friend recommended Raffini. Raffini was highly professional and clearly an expert of his craft. He spent the time consulting with us in depth about the different options and designs so the rings would be perfect. As soon as we saw the finished rings we knew we had made the right choice. Absolutely stunning! Would highly recommend Raffini to anyone looking for something special and custom designed jewellery.

Fantastic experience. Raffini was extremely professional, and guided me through the journey of designing an engagement ring flawlessly. He listened to all of my ideas and input, then combined that with his experience and expertise, and the result was highly appreciated by my now fiancée. Will come back soon for the wedding bands!

Raffini was the third jeweller that I met in Sydney and was by far the most professional and passionate. He took the time to take me through the process from start to finish and the result was a perfect engagement ring. My fiance loves the design and we couldn't be happier with it. Thanks Raffini, highly recommended.

Raffini made the experience of designing and purchasing my fiancé’s engagement ring, engaging and stress-free. We met multiple times during the process, which made me confident in Raffini’s work and kept me involved in the design and detail decisions. My fiancé loves her ring and we will be returning for our wedding rings. If you’re looking for something special and want expert advice, definitely get in contact with Raffini.

Raffini was great to deal with and was more than happy to explain things we were not too sure about through the process. His quality of work is very high. Would definitely go back to him in the future.

Raffini is highly experienced and very professional with custom made rings. He shared a lot of his knowledge and opinion, which made the process a lot easier and smoother. The ring is beautiful and my partner loves it. Thank you Raffini! I would highly recommend Raffini if you are looking for a beautiful ring/jewellery!

Another big thank you to Raffini for his outstanding work on our wedding rings. He impressed me so much with his creation of my fiance's opal engagement ring, which he designed from scratch, so of course we asked him to make the rings for our big day. His impeccable craftsmanship, attention to detail and all round professionalism is second to none. I highly recommend him to anyone and everyone. Thanks so much Raffini, we will be back!

I have used Raffini on several occasions over the last 5+ years, and every time Raffini has exceeded my expectations. Raffini is a master craftsman who is able to listen and understand what you are looking for, then add recommendations, refinements and then the technical details to produce a truly stunning piece of high quality and flawless jewellery. Thank you Raffini, I will be back!

Raffini helped us with my engagement ring. He was very patient and guided us to a great outcome. We were both love the final result and have had a lot of great compliments on the ring.

To all that are lucky enough to hear about Raffini, First off: She said YES! I am an expat living in Sydney, and had no "diamond guy" here. A friend recommended Raffini, and it's the best piece of advice I've received. A surprise engagement abroad is enough to plan, so having Raffini supporting me through the diamond design and ring production process made things easier on me. Raffini is a living example of how if you love your work, you never work a day in your life. This man loves his craft, and it shows in his final product. It is one-of-a-kind art, and he includes you in the design, creation, and review. He is a small shop, and it felt great to me that the jeweller and his work bench were right there when I arrived for the first time. My girlfriend needed a resizing and he handled her with grace. She loves the ring. Since the engagement, we had wedding bands designed around her engagement ring, and a set of earrings. Same professionalism for every piece.

We have used Raffini a couple of times - for designing our wedding rings and more recently for repairing my antique engagement ring. Raffini has taken the utmost care in fixing and strengthening my very delicate engagement ring. He has great communication, listens exactly to what we wanted when designing our rings and has reasonable prices. I would highly recommend using his services.

Raffini was incredibly helpful throughout the entire ring making process and catered to every need that I had. He ensured that every step of the process was transparent and charged a fair price for the work. The finished product was amazing and I would not hesitate to recommend his work.

My fiancé and I had a great experience with Raffini - he was attentive from start to finish. I came to Raffini with a specific design in mind and he ensured that the ring came out exactly as I wanted. He consulted us throughout the entire process and ensured that we were happy with the progress, every step of the way. The final product (which is absolutely perfect) is a testament to his high attention to detail and outstanding craftsmanship! I couldn't recommend him highly enough!

Raffini is an amazing jeweler to say the very least. I had my engagement ring re-made with a matching wedding band and he turned it into something so much better than I can ever imagine. From the start to end process he has been impeccable in his attention to detail (and I’m extremely picky), his friendliness and professionalism always and his knowledge and passion for diamonds and jewelry is obvious. He has great patience and will really listen to what you are after in designing your dream piece. You really feel like you are being taken care of. I’m very glad I stepped foot in his studio after reading the positive reviews - he certainly lived up to them. Raffini, I’m so happy with my ring - my deepest gratitude to you in creating something I love to wear, look at and have for a lifetime!

Raffini designed and made both my fiancé and my wedding rings - they go perfectly together and we are so happy with them! He was very thorough, professional and his craftsmanship is second to none. We would recommend to anyone looking for an amazing wedding ring!

Raffini is so thorough and polite with his communications. From the very first contact to the day my husband received his ring - it was a very easy ride with Raffini. The updates throughout the course of the ring-making were helpful too. The ring looks amazing and is an immaculate craftsmanship. Thanks, Raffini.

Having visited several other jewellers in searching for engagement rings before we met Raffini, his approach stood out and separated him from the rest. We first inspected and chose our ‘perfect’ diamond and from there Raffini custom makes a ring that showcases the diamond through numerous consultations of designs we like and modifications and enhancements by him that brings it all together. No shortcuts were taken during the process, with Raffini carefully guiding us through and explaining the little intricacies that he adds in his craft in creating an engagement ring that we adore.

We’ve purchased the wedding bends from Raffini in 2019 and besides being really beautiful, the process was really easy and the price lower than many other places we’ve looked into. Also Raffini is really personable and capable of making really complex rings, which is really good as you want to enjoy the process as well. For these reasons I came back to Raffini when I needed another ring this year.

This is the second time I come to Raffini and again he delivered a master piece. It was exactly what I wanted and he didn't just get it without too many details from my end, he went above and beyond to give me suggestions and information that improved the design of the pendant. I can 100% recommend him.
