Kiran spent a lot of time chatting through options with me for getting my grandmother's wedding ring fit to my size. He was so knowledgeable and helpful and gave me honest advice about what would work best. He compressed the ring and fit to my size, it looks fantastic and has kept all of the markings on the inside. He also re-sized and cleaned up another ring I had which was another sentimental piece which now looks good as new. I was amazed at how reasonable the price was too. Highly recommend if you have a sentimental piece of jewellery. Thank you so much!!

I had some fine gold bars that had been given to me by my Dad that I wanted to make into a bracelet. Because my Dad is terminally ill this was a very emotional experience so wanted to make sure whoever made the bracelet would understand and take extra care with my request. AKA we’re brilliant.
They invested time with me as I’d hoped, really understood what I was looking for and the result far exceeded my expectations.
When I first saw the bracelet i was genuinely shocked at how good it looked!
They clearly took great care in creating a beautiful bracelet that I will always wear and, most importantly, will remind me of my Dad when I look at it.
So glad I went to AKA - these professionals know exactly what they are doing.
Will certainly go back to them in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Thank you so much 🙏

I asked AKA to make me a bracelet for my daughters 21st. There were a few things it needed to incorporate including her late fathers wedding ring. Kiran came up with a stunning bracelet that was exactly right and fitted the brief perfectly. My daughter loves it and I am a very happy customer.
C. L.
I'm absolutely delighted with my remodeled engagement ring and wedding band. I was provided with CAD drawings so I could see the proposed design 'in real life'. The result is absolutely stunning and I'm delighted. I've now asked them to look at a couple of other designs for me.

I would like to thank Kiran and his team at AKA for his excellent, and personal service throughout redesigning an existing engagement ring! You really did put a lot of thought and consideration into all aspects when working on my ring. I approached Kiran with a big problem with an existing ring that other jewellers turned away but he came up with a plan and took it on like an absolute professional and truly considered my personal status and wishes in redesigning a bespoke ring. He took parts from the old to set into the new which was an exciting journey plus the relief that I can reuse and combine the old and the new pieces together. I would highly recommend for a fully trustworthy experience in jewellery making.

Stunning Bespoke Diamond Ring designed by Kiran at AKA. Personalised service with attention to detail and every aspect explained in depth. I also had a charm bracelet repaired which was the first gift from my son who passed away 3 years ago to the day that Kiran returned it to Me. Kiran is a truly humble man and I also give credit to his vision of future jewellers, and the effort he puts in to achieve that vision by encouraging youths to reach thier full potential. A scholar in his field. Keep up the good work Kiran, I will be back.

My mum (Clare) has just had her wedding and engagement ring re-designed by Kiran, and he did an utterly superb job. Nothing was too much trouble. It's super unusual, one of a kind, and she loves it! Also Kiran offered significantly better pricing on the servicing of my Grandma's Omega watch than other jewellers. Amazing pricing and amazing service. If you are looking for that perfect hand designed ring, or anything jewellery related for that matter, make sure to give A K A a visit.

I've been meaning to write a review for AKA Bespoke Jewellers to thank Kiran for working with my fiancee to create the most amazing engagement ring I could have ever asked for! Just been printing out engagement photos and was reminded how surprised and overwhelmed I was at the incredible work he did. He used diamonds from my late grandmother, my mum and a stunning new one (which Kiran found for us) from my guy to make this incredible beauty!! Thanks again Kiran - we'll be back for our wedding rings for sure! Sarah x

Kiran helped us design the perfect ring for my partners 40th. The team are great to work with and the whole process from design to delivery was superb. We're ecstatic with how the ring came out and it's exceeded our expectations.
P. B.
I had my mothers gold charm bracelet and diamond ring which I had been thinking about having remodelled into a bangle for quite some time. After consulting with Kiran he came up with the idea of a 'C' bangle and embedding the diamonds in the bangle. There was also two charms which I wanted to keep and these were also attached. What an amazing piece of jewelry I now own which is unique to me and I cannot express my thanks enough to Kiran and his team.
C. H.
I love bespoke jewellery. However I did not visit here. No Janine I didn't order you a ring, I am married. And that includes weekends
K. D.
Kiran and the team at AKA are excellent - I’ve had 3 pieces from them over the years and they have all been amazing quality and great value… in addition the customer service is great and they always guarantee their work and if there’s any issues they remedy them straight away. I’d happily recommend to friends and family.
H. S.
When discussing the design of our wedding rings, Kiran listened to what we wanted, but then also made practical suggestions to ensure that my ring in particular would be ok with my busy outdoor lifestyle. Kiran's team is friendly and welcoming and I would definitely recommend AKA.

Could not recommend AKA Bespoke Jewellers more!
My fiancé and I needed wedding rings for our upcoming marriage. We wanted something a bit more special and meaningful than what we could find on the high street and that's exactly what we got. We met the team at AKA and they really went out of their way to create some unique for us.
I had a diamond solitare engagement ring which originally came from my fiancé's Mother. This ring was 40+ years old and I was hoping to create something to match it. When we met with the team at AKA they studied the diamond ring carefully and attentively advising us that the white gold ring, despite being beautiful, was old and likely to need strengthening or replacing. They recreated the engagement ring and replaced the white gold with a stronger platinum ring but designed it identically to my mother-in-law's old ring. It was incredible how it appeared identical to the old ring and yet so much stronger and more secure. My wedding band was based off this new engagement ring so the two fit perfectly alongside each other. My husband's ring was yellow gold but the white gold left over from my original engagement ring (his Mother's old ring) was placed on the inside of his ring. This incredibly thoughtful idea came from the team at AKA and we feel so thankful to them for creating extra special wedding bands for us.
Overall the service delivered by AKA Bespoke Jewellers was second to none! They were professional throughout and reliable at every step along the way. If you are looking for unique jewellry this is the place to come for sure! Would certainly use them again in the future.
J. S.
Over all excellent service from start to finish. Kiran helped my son design his own signet ring (18th birthday gift), even melting and rolling the gold. very happy indeed.
L. R.
Extremely outstanding experience, from Kiran and the team. I had 2 Rings made, from pieces of sentimental family jewelry. Kiran designed the most amazing bespoke rings for me, I cannot thank him enough. I now have the most beautiful rings, which I will treasure. The knowledge and experience Kiran has, is very reassuring. I would highly recommend Kiran and the team.
A very big thank you for your kind service

We went to AKA jewellers almost by accident. And I'm so glad we did. I was looking for the perfect ring to give my wife for our 30th wedding anniversary. Frankly the sheer number of high street jewellers and the variety of rings on show in central Manchester was bewildering.
When we met the owner of AKA we were immediately put at ease. First impressions count and we very quickly realised we could trust and have confidence in him and the company. Buying jewellery is as much about trust as the glitter, especially if like me you dont buy jewellery very often.
Over several months we met and discussed what my wife wanted, at different stages showing us options and different diamonds. Whilst all this added to the confidence we had in making sure my wife got the ring she wanted, it also made buying more special.
My wife has today got the ring on here finger and to say she is delighted belies how she really feels.
I would recommend AKA and the owner Kiran to anyone. We have a very special bespoke ring, worth more than we could have afforded from a high street store.
The image reflects how bad my camera skills are not how beautiful the ring is.
T. F.
I lost the diamond in my ring , luckily a fellow worker found the diamond . My friend recommended this specialist . I have my ring back , it looks brand new , I am so chuffed with the workmanship , timeline and price.
I would highly recommend this company .
J. S. G.
Kiran was incredible with my great-grandparents engagement ring. We spoke everything out over multiple phone calls/appointments and the end result was gorgeous - I am so happy with AKA Bespoke Jewellers and couldn't recommend them more!
S. P.
Fantastic experience dealing with Kiran who clearly knows the industry he works in extremely well. Some frank conversations allowed for a beautiful engagement ring for my partner to be designed and made within a short turn around. Excellent from start to finish, highly recommended.
K. S.
I had both my wedding band and engagement ring remodelled by Kiran. The process was gradual and he listened to my requests, going through the options and best fit for what I was looking for, suggesting what would and wouldn't work in terms of design. I was never rushed into making decisions and my original diamonds and platinum from both rings were used so as not to lose their sentimental value.
Although it was a longer wait than expected (which was due to the covid lockdown), Kiran kept in touch on progress and delivered the finished rings to me at home.
I am thrilled with the result, my engagement ring diamond has been put centre stage with its new halo and both rings sparkle so beautifully, they're a real statement now, which was what I was looking for. I would highly recommend AKA Jewellery.
C. S.
Kiran made a lovely heart shaped ruby pendant for my wife for xmas. He took the commission quite close to Christmas and made sure it was ready for xmas day which i really appreciated! Kiran was really responsive and helpful when it came to helping me decide what i wanted. He is obviously really experienced and knows what hes doing; and most importantly, my wife loves her pendant! Thanks Kiran. Im hoping she will return the favour and ask you to make something for me! Would recommend AKA bespoke jewelry.
T. C.
After searching the high street jewellers without success, my hubby-to-be found AKA Bespoke Jewellery through Google and commissioned them to design and create my engagement ring using a diamond that belonged to his grandmother. The ring is absolutely beautiful and so well-made. It means so much to both of us that it is unique and sentimental. We were so impressed, we asked them to design and create my wedding ring as well. Again, this is absolutely stunning and the craftsmanship is second to none. Thank you so much!
D. L.
Kiran came recommended as a master jeweller and certainly lived up to that reputation. A new wedding and engagement ring have been designed with the closest attention to detail and reflect perfectly the wishes of my wife. When you are starting out in life you can’t always afford what you want. As you get older the same might be true - until you meet a craftsman like Kiran and his team at AKA who make the impossible possible. I can’t recommend them enough to people and will certainly be heading back for our next ‘dream come true jewelry’
J. B.
Recommended. Trusted. Reliable.
Fantastic service and an amazing peice of jewellery! The bog standard High Street was just not cutting it for me. I contacted AKA and never looked back. Great advice, reliable and wonderful craftsmanship.
My budget was average/modest and I feel like I got a really bang for my buck! Also no one else has the same peice of jewellery.
Me and my partner enjoyed the whole process! So much more enjoyable than buying mass produced jewellery and your money goes further too!
k. T.
Was recommended to AKA by a friend who had an amazing experience. I had my father's bracelet and some sentimental diamond rings remodelled into the most stunning set of rings. Kiran gave me such inspiration for the design - we talked Art Deco and other ideas and he is not only so creative but really patient and thoughtful. The quality of the rings is off the scale and they are so unique. Will be going back that is for certain. Outstanding!
M. A.
We found AKA Bespoke Jeweller by chance on a google search and are so glad we did. We wanted bespoke wedding rings and had a specific design in mind. The enthusiasm and vision that Kiran had during our initial consultation filled us with confidence. He led us through the design process before making a decision to proceed. The final product has far out surpassed our expectations. The rings are amazing, unique to us and crafted with so much skill, precision and quality. We we have no reservations in recommending AKA Bespoke Jewellers. Thank you so much!
K. B.
I was recommended to speak to Kiran from a friend and I’m so so happy that we did. I absolutely love my engagement and our wedding rings, much more so because we (with expert advice and guidance) got to design them ourselves. There was no question where to go when we needed a special birthday present of diamond stud earrings, so beautiful that I ended up with a pair also. Awesome service from Kiran and the team.
a. s.
Just received a fabulous amethyst ring from AKA which, with help from Kiran, I had designed. Kiran is very knowledgeable on stones, settings etc and his input is invaluable. It's a great experience having a piece of jewellery made especially for you and I would recommend it to anyone. As this was the second ring that Kiran had worked on for me I had no hesitation in asking him to make this latest ring. Having worked with other bespoke jewellers I have found Kiran to be the best and I would recommend himto anyone.
J. C.
Kiran designed an engagement ring for my fiancee. The ring completely exceeded our expectations - we were both blown away when we saw the finished ring. Kiran led us through the design process and made us feel part of it. We are extremely grateful and would recommend AKA to anyone.
A. P. G.
Extremely pleased with the entire process, I approached Kiran with a challenging idea, designing a pair of silver circular knitting needles that fit the standard interchangeable cables.
I had contacted several jewellers and all of them said this was too challenging or didn't think it was something they could manage.
Kiran was really excited by the challenge from day 1, was extremely helpful, made really good suggestions and took the idea further throughout the entire process.
Overall I cannot recommend the services enough, especially to make something unique and special. I'll definitely be going back.
R. Y.
I used AKA bespoke to design my now fiance's engagement ring. From the first consultation with Kiran i could see how dedicated he is to his craft. It was great to be a part of the design process and see the ring come to life. He created the most amazing ring which we both now cant stop looking at! I cant recommend Kiran and the team at AKA highly enough. Thanks from Rob & Jen.
R. S.
Being able to sit down with the person that is going to make your wedding ring, discuss ideas and agree on the final design is very important. Kiran was able to guide us based on his vast experience, the result was a ring that my wife absolutely loves. I highly recommend Kiran if you want a unique piece of jewellery and excellent service.
J. B.
My wife went to AKA Bespoke Jewellers not knowing if they could help her. She wanted a piece combining both her late Mum and Dad’s wedding rings. Kiran knew that he was making more than a piece of jewellery, and understood the sentimental value the piece would have. He knew what she wanted even when she didn't know herself. The result was a beautiful and precious reminder of her parents. You can tell the craftsmen care. It is important to them that they make the right piece for you.
M. B.
Found AKA on Google while looking for somewhere that could design an engagement ring.
It was the first time I had ever designed a piece of jewellery and Kiran was extremely knowledgeable and patient with me as we worked through the design together. He provided helpful advice on the design and features of the ring while working towards the image that I had in my mind. The final piece turned out better than I even imagined it and most importantly, my fiancée absolutely loves it!!
M. B.
How can I describe the experience of working with AKA jewellery if not as a great journey and a fantastic outcome. I was given AKA name by a friend, never had the pleasure of knowing this hidden Manchester jeweller, discussed some options for a special ring. No more to be said, AKA helped me to translate my visual design - no more than a few lines on a piece of paper - into something wonderful and unique. Thanks a lot for your help and look forward to more custom built items as a trusted advisor and fantastic executor. Thank you all.

I can't speak highly enough of AKA Bespoke. From start to finish the process was easy and slick. The engagement ring is truly beautiful and Richard helped in every aspect to a complete novice in myself with little to no knowledge of rings and jewelry. He guided me on all aspects of the design and advised me with his expertise. My fiancée absolutely adores the ring we made, I will be recommending them to all my friends and family.
J. F.
Great team, items fully made in house with the most amazing craftsmanship. Wouldn’t shop anywhere else now! Well done and a big thanks to Kieran, Rohan and the fabulous team at AKA Bespoke Jeweller’s! See you all again soon!
J. T.
Thank you Kiran for creating my dream engagement ring with the help of James! I am totally in love with it and feel so lucky to have such a stunning one of a kind ring. Professional and highly personal service, you don’t just create beautiful jewellery but really consider the person it is for. We can’t wait for you to make our wedding bands! Can’t recommend AKA enough!
M. S.
Amazing experience from start to finish. Kiran is a true craftsman and made the process of creating a bespoke engagement ring for my girlfriend (now fiance) a pleasure. The staff at aka are all very friendly. Highly recommend.
J. H.
From start to finish, simply excellent. As a person who has no idea about jewellery I had a very vague idea of what I wanted. The guys took the car and attention to design and build the most perfect ring. It is exactly what I wanted. Both me and my fiancé love it! Thank you so much for everything
l.
I had a fabulous experience using AKA Jewellers for my engagement ring. Kiran gave great advice, and helped guide us to the ring design that we wanted. He also managed to get it done very quickly and in time for my family to see at Christmas!
N. B.
We met with Kiran after getting engaged with quite a tight timescale - our engagement was only 14 weeks! Kiran advised us and showed us examples and also looked at the ideas we brought along. Kiran improved on the ideas we brought to make us three absolutely beautiful rings. They suit our personalities and we know that no one else will have the same as us. My husband had arrived asking for a plain wedding band and left with a two tone band that is far more interesting but still reflects his understated style and personality. He would have felt uncomfortable wearing anything showy.
I must also say that Kiran's aftercare is really great too. I decided to add additional diamonds to my wedding band and this was handled no problem, in a single day. Years later I also dislodged a stone while cleaning my wedding ring (the poor thing has been knocked about a bit). Kiran put the stone back in for me and had the ring looking like new in a day!!
All in all, I would recommend Kiran and his team.
G. H.
Kiran was different class from start to finish when I went to him to design an engagement ring for my girlfriend. I had no idea of what i wanted and the ideas and designs Kiran gave me blew me away. The ring he provided is beyond anything i ever expected and my now fiancee is in love with it. I cannot reccomend him and AKA enough to anybody.
s. f.
Kiran took his time with helping two customers who had absolutely no idea what we wanted. His suggested designs for the rings were excellent and the results were above and beyond what we could have expected.
Definitely the only jeweller I could ever recommend!
J. H.
I wanted to buy a stone for my daughter’s birthday. Kiran was extremely patient and helpful in guiding me to exactly the right ruby for her. She is delighted with it and looking forward to designing an item of jewellery made with it. Would highly recommend.
A. P.
We came to Kiran with an idea of what engagement ring we were looking for. He brought the ideas together, showed us what he could do from the ring to the diamond itself and we were blown away with what he produced. Absolutely 100% recommend ! We will be back for wedding rings. Thank you for everything Kiran!
B. B.
I'd wanted to remodel my engagement ring for a long time but needed someone who I trusted and would be able to deliver something a bit different. Thankfully my research led me to Kiran and AKA who were wonderful to work with. The result is a beautiful piece of jewellery which suits my personality and has been admired by everyone.
a. t.
I was introduced to AKA Jewellers, Manchester over 25 years ago. Since then I have purchased numerous items of jewellery, watches and rings. I cannot recommend them highly enough. I have introduced many friends and family, who also speak highly of Kiran and the service he provides. He not only provides excellent quality with the items but also an affordable price to go with them. He always delivers above expectations. For any type of jewellery or watches, I simply would not go anywhere else. Highly recommended.
J. B.
So very pleased with my remakes. I now have a beautiful gold bangle inset with sapphires and my engagement ring is repaired and looks even better than before. Kiran and his team are both highly skilled and trustworthy. Thank you so much everyone!
J. D.
Prior to discovering AKA I was admittedly clueless about jewellery, so when the time came for me to buy an engagement ring I needed a lot of help... from someone I could trust! Thankfully, a good friend of mine referred me to Kiran and I couldn't be more grateful.
From our initial discussions over the phone, numerous email exchanges, to each personal consultation, Kiran truly helped me to understand all my options and the quality difference between traditional high street offerings and a beautifully bespoke piece. He spent time carefully designing the ring to my exact specifications and needless to say, the final product is absolutely spectacular!! I simply cannot recommend AKA highly enough.
Thank you again, JD
M. M.
Thankyou SO much to Kiran and all at AKA enough for the work they have carried out on behalf of my husband and I. After a poor experience with a previous bespoke jeweller, we visited Kiran in the hopes that he could fix the problems we faced with my engagement ring and wedding band. A tricky situation all round which Kiran and AKA approached with much professionalism and the end result has left me blown away. From the start we knew we were in safe hands, nothing has been too much trouble and the I left this afternoon totally in love with my new jewellery. I worried I would loose the sentimentality from the rings as they were not the ones used during our wedding day however this is something Kiran made sure didn't happen. The whole process has taken a while, but I can honestly say it has been worth the wait. The new rings are truly beautiful and bespoke to me, the finish and final product is amazing- and I certainly wouldn't have wanted anyone else to have carried out the work! Absolutely fantastic, thankyou all once again!!

I came across AKA Bespoke Jewellers when I decided on a whim that I was going to ask my then girlfriend to marry me on a trip to Rome that was in 2 weeks time. I rang Kiran and although it was an extremely tight deadline arranged a meeting to see if it could be done. I wanted to use diamonds from a cluster ring inherited from my late grandma, and has little more ideas than that, but after an hour with Kiran who was determined not to make me be led but to design the ring myself we had the look and feel set out. It wasn’t and never felt like it was a standard ring on a conveyor belt but that it was very much bespoke and was my ring that I had designed that was far much more than anything I had ever even imagined, and for a much better price than the high street. I am glad to say she said yes and cried upon seeing the ring it was so beautiful. Needless to say we went back for the wedding rings to made, where my wife’s was made to fit exactly to the engagement ring, and mine (not to be out done by my wife’s) used the remaining diamonds from the cluster and had my grandmas wedding ring set inside it... it is so very special. I cannot thank Kiran and the lads enough for making us such beautiful one off master pieces for us. To say I would recommend AKA Bespoke Jewelers is a massive understatement, it is a pleasure to have met Kiran and would not ever go to another jeweler for anything again.
M. S.
I can't thank Kiran and his team enough for converting my late mother's ring into a stunning pendant for my daughter. Kiran went through all the possible options patiently answering all my questions, and with his advise we came up with a modern reconstruction that my daughter would wear but still held its sentimental value. I found all the guys to be very friendly and would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting bespoke jewellry.
D. J.
I wanted something bespoke and personal when it came to choosing the right engagement ring for what I hoped to be my future wife and put that little effort in opposed to simply go to a high street jeweller and pick up something mass produced.
I live in Birmingham and very close to the jewellery quarter, so I have a vast amount of choice when it comes to jewellery, but a close friend of mine, suggested I spoke with Kiran as he had done some wonderful pieces for him over the years. A few days later, I spoke with Kiran and was very impressed with his whole customer focus and what I wanted to achieve, so I arranged a trip to Manchester to see him and let’s just say I was not disappointed, he made the whole experience an absolute pleasure and discussed options which was right for us as individuals, not what was easiest for him, he really made us the focus and the end product was simply amazing.
Needless the say, when the big day came to ask that all important question, I got the response I wanted. Needless to say, Kiran has also made our wedding rings, which we are absolutely thrilled with.
I would, can and do highly recommend Kiran and the team, they are without a doubt, one of the most customer focused business I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with and their products are simply amazing
Thank you so much

I am absolutely thrilled with the beautiful, bespoke diamond ring Kiran at AKA made for me. I had three diamond rings, neither of which I particularly liked because they were all dated and one I had inherited. I wanted to merge the three rings into one show stopper. My brief was to design an Art Deco style ring with minimal metal showing and a dazzle of diamonds. Kiran knows his stuff and following several consultations he emailed me visual designs to consider. My final choice, now adorning third finger left hand, is simply stunning. I cannot recommend AKA Bespoke Jewellers enough and the final cost makes this review a no brainier. Thank you Kiran
J. C.
Excellent product and service!
After being referred by a friend I was expecting a lot from AKA and I was NOT disappointed! I got the perfect engagement ring and I am sure I will be returning for the wedding rings. The process was tailored to me and I wasn’t just another number going into a retail shop. The advice Kiran provided was great, he really knows what he is talking about. My Girlfriend (now Fiancé) was over the moon with her engagement ring. Unique and real quality in the product I will not hesitate to go back, honestly can’t tell you how happy I was to have chosen AKA . Many Thanks Kiran.
D. L.
Absolutely fabulous jewellers, Kiran and his team are experts in capturing every detail to create a masterpiece. Beautifully made jewellery and watches just take your breath away. Highly recommend.
I had a beautiful pendant made for my 21st and I couldn’t me more over the moon with it.
S. K.
From the moment you deal with Kiran and this company you will understand my rating here. I recently damaged my Omega Speedmaster and Kiran arranged for its repair. The team did a Fantastic job, and for a very small fee brought the watch back to life with an outstanding polish. I can not recommend this company enough.
Having also purchased an IWC GST from here also the service is second to none.
c. s.
I had a ring made for my wife, this was my first time getting a bespoke item. They helped me through the initial design stages and the CAD images were detailed and brought the design to life. The listened to my input and changed the design to make it fit my idea.
The final ring was better than I could ever have hoped and I will happily go to them again rather than go to off the shelf jeweler
P. W.
Kiran designed my fiancé's dream engagement ring. I had no idea what I was doing with the exception of a picture on my phone. Kiran walked me through all aspects of the design and it is absolutely perfect. I couldn't recommend him more he and his team are fantastic!
C. L.
Kiran done a fantastic job of supplying me a Briteling watch three years ago and I have recommended other people to him who were equally impressed.
I have been back to Kiran in the last few weeks for a pendant for my wife. She didn't know exactly what she wanted, but I knew she would know when she saw it, although it was Kirans advise and expertise that greatly helped understand what she wanted and realised her vision.
She now has a fabulous diamond pendant.
I would definitely recommend AKA and Kiran to anyone who wants quality and and value for money.
Thank you very much.
D. L.
I Commissioned AKA Bespoke to do a wedding ring for my wife to be, the engagement ring was an awkward shape but after meeting Kiran and his team they turned a difficult process into a simple process, Kiran walked us through the design and what he could do and made suggestions on what would suit and suggested designs that would compliment her engagement ring. The finished article we couldn't be more pleased with my fiancee loves it and constantly looks at it, (she can't wait for the wedding now so she can wear the ring) A huge thanks to Kiran and his team for a bespoke beautiful wedding ring that compliments my fiancées engagement ring without out ”shining it”
D. C.
I came to Kiran with an idea for a men’s ring that he helped refine and develop in a way that I never thought possible. The whole process was professional and the final product is a unique, handsome and intensely personal piece of jewellery. Kiran is an absolute gentleman; I would encourage anyone who is considering a bespoke piece of jewellery to contact Kiran first as you will not be disappointed by the service offered both by him and the rest of the AKA team!
P. M.
I wanted a bespoke jewellers to commission a project which involved melting both me and my late wife's wedding rings down and making a new ring for myself. I didn't want to throw them in a drawer and forget about them. I wanted something to remember.
Kiran put me at ease straight away. I told him what I wanted and left them with him. I got a call a few weeks later and went along. Kiran and his team have done a fantastic job. I am over the moon. They actually did a very slight amendment which makes the ring even better. I can honestly say that Kiran and everyone at AKA were fantastic. I will definitely use AKA again for my future jewellery.
A. S.
I was recommended AKA by a friend who had his father's Longines watch restored. I now have a lovely , original wedding band thanks to AKA. Mine was a modest request and I was worried that I was not enough of a 'big spender'! But I was quickly put at ease by Kiran. He clearly treats every commission as a special project and guided me through the process with care and consideration. I was also astonished at his knowledge of a little sapphire ring I inherited from an elderly aunt. I love the ring but his information as to its provenance and the way it had been cut and set, was a revelation.
Would highly recomment AKA & will be back when its time for an eternity ring!!!
D. E.
From start to finish our experience with Kiran was amazing. He put us at ease with his wealth of knowledge & experience and the quality and choice given to us was fantastic. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone who is looking at quality bespoke jewellery
V. J.
Absolutely lovely man, amazing service and beautiful, beautiful ring that I will treasure for the rest of my life. Kiran really took the time to find out what we wanted and he is a wonderful craftsman. We are absolutely thrilled with the final ring! Thank-you so much Kiran - we really appreciate your efforts.

Absolutely amazing jewellery and service! Personal attention to make sure you get exactly what you want and that it is tailored to you. Kiran has been so good to me, helping me with a special present for my 50th birthday and to say I'm delighted is an understatement! Kiran, you know that diamond you have entrusted me with has gone to a good home! I'm going to be smiling for a very very long time!

I used AKA to remodel my late mothers engagement ring. AKA used the ring setting and make me a beautiful gold bracelet . Kiran listened to what I liked and came up with a design which was perfect for me . If I need to have Jewelry remodelled or made in the future I will use AKA

Could not be happier with the service from Kiran yet again. A beautiful engagement ring and stunning wedding ring for my finance, and a bespoke wedding ring for me using a gold ring I'd had for years. Absolutely blown away by the quality.

Kiran and his team were not only helpful, professional, and friendly, but also are arguably the best artists and craftsmen around. Kiran created a ring that exceeded any expectations i could have, and has made my proposal a day to remember!

Kiran was fantastic at suggesting ideas to bring an old piece of jewellery back to life. An old ring that sat in the cupboard for years is now a beautiful necklace that can be worn every day. Excellent professional service

I wanted a custom made engagement ring made with a MacKintosh design. Kiran was able to talk me through the process, asked me lots of questions about how I wanted the ring to look, made 3d render drawings before delivering a professional product. Delighted!

Absolutely thrilled.
I asked Kiran to remodel my eternity ring in platinum, it’s beyond beautiful. The new design makes the diamonds catch the light so much more than before.
Thank you. X

I was hesitant at first as I had never used this type of service before. I didn't know how to describe what I wanted well, but he service and help I received was phenomenal. I was consulted at each stage to make sure my idea was being realised as i'd imagined. The end product, an anniversary ring, was incredible, my partner hasn't taken it off since. I definitely recommend using AKA and will be using them again in the future for my next idea!

The sentimental value is pricelessxxx

I would really struggle to go back to highstreet retailers after my experience with AKA Bespoke. Kiran & the guys helped guide me through the brief / design process & created a finished product that genuinely blew me away and exceeded my expectation. The service was excellent throughout - I cannot recommend AKA Bespoke highly enough. Thanks again, guys

Friendly, helpful and fantastic service. I have a 40year old gold watch that had broken links and didn’t look repairable, I was absolutely amazed a week later it looked like new again. Have a few more cherished pieces I will return with. Cath

After traveling around to numerous jewellers who said they couldn’t do the work required on my wedding ring, we asked if there was anywhere who could do the work and AkA Bespoke was recommended to us, it is situated on the 3rd floor in the Barton Arcade which is on Deansgate and also you can access from St Ann’s Square, On Arrival we were very politely met by John and Kieron who explained why a lot of other jewellers could not do the work required, we had two options due to the style of my ring, in the end we managed to get away with the easier and cheaper option, my partner also had her engagement ring altered, excellent service and very reasonable prices, I would definitely recommend and will use again for any future work , pleas ring to book appointment before attending, Thank Again to John and Kieron from Steve and Jeannie.
