AHW Studio Strand Arcade - Diamonds & Engagement

The ring I got compared to the ring portrayed on their website is very different. Had the images reflected what I received I would NOT have purchased. When I requested a return and refund their response was… "I recommend simply wearing the ring for 1–2 days - it will naturally develop a softer, more matte finish akin to the website with normal wear, which is closer to the look you’re hoping for." A few days wear is not going to give me a ring similar to their image.

I designed my fiancée's engagement ring with Angus and Aaron from AHW Studio. From the get-go, they were helpful, responsive and provided excellent value. They helped me at every step of the ring creating journey and I had lots of fun during the process! I first came in store in mid-2024 to get some tips on what I should look for in the stone (my plan was to purchase it on a trip overseas). They gave me an idea of what I should look out for, size, cut, colour, clarity and origin. Then a few months later, in early-2025, I brought the stone in, they worked with me on my desired design and provided digital mock-ups of what it would look like. From there, they took the stone, crafted a beautiful setting, and that was it! I would highly recommend anyone looking for a beautiful, bespoke ring to come and have a chat with Angus & Arron at AHW.

AHW studios make exceptional pieces. I fell in love with their Phoenix ring while traveling through Sydney in December 2025 and purchased it in store and never took it off until it needed some fixing. I was back in Perth but when I realised they had a lifetime warranty I emailed them and sent pictures of what needed attention, I sent them the ring and they sent me back a completely resorted piece with no out of pocket expenses. Couldn’t recommend highly enough. Thank you for your craftsmanship.

I discovered AHW a few years ago on my first trip to Sydney and initially stopped by the Strand Store. We were really surprised by how reasonably priced and customisable such unique jewellery could be. Angus is super helpful in finding exactly what you want, making alterations quickly and changing the stones to suit our needs. We went away with 3 rings on that trip! On heading back to the UK we purchased more online and then a couple of years later I was lucky enough to come back to Sydney and made AHW my first stop. Another 3 rings and a necklace later I wanted to point out that still, after all this time and out of all the places I travel (I’m cabin crew so I get all over!) this is the most reasonably priced shop with amazing quality and service. I’ve never found anything like the items AHW produces and I genuinely can’t wait to see what comes out in the 2026 collections. Thanks to Angus and the team for being so helpful.

An excellent studio with exceptional customer service. Angus was extremely helpful with fitting and advice as to the two pieces I purchased. They’re high quality and very detailed silver pieces. They were very happy to organise a resize no questions asked once I’d had some wear from the heavier piece - Oro proud Rex which is really sick! - once my hand cooled later in the day and the fit wasn’t perfect. Cannot recommend enough. Classy, unique, and customer focused service. Check em out.

These guys are legit the greatest and most unique in the industry. Plus you are dealing with the owners when you shop which gives a real personal touch. I needed to replace my wedding ring and wanted something no one else would have. The guys took me on the design journey and allowed me to add my personality to the design. I wanted the ring to be platinum as I’m not gentle so I wanted something that would last. The final product is a beautiful hammered platinum signet with a raw chasm of yellow gold running through the centre, housing an Australian sapphire.

I recently purchased a ring for my husband’s birthday from AHW Studio and was very impressed by the quality, service and overall experience. My husband is very happy with this gift and really liked the idea that he can add in additional stones for various life milestones. Highly recommend this jeweller.
