I was in search of a bespoke diamond Engagement ring, and after visiting a couple of well known High Street Jewellers I got the feeling the process would be slow, and hard work, and disappointing, and set off in search of a more tailored approach.After a bit of a google search, I found Si Vis Amari, and figured I'd make an appointment, after all, couldn't be worse than my high street experiences.The very first moment I met Bud, I felt right at ease, he's such a welcoming, easily approachable man. As our initial meeting progressed, it became clear to me that I had absolutely made the right decision contacting Bud. Within half an hour he had already imparted more wisdom on me than the collective hours I'd already spent at high street Jewellers.I went in almost blind, and came out full of the right knowledge, which is exactly what I needed.Over the next few weeks, we met a couple more times to fine-tune and perfect the design we had initially discussed. Bud left no stone un-turned as he made absolutely sure that the brief we had discussed initially was met, giving sound advice along the way, and his attention to detail is second to none!The end product was amazing, and surpassed all my expectations. With Bud's passion, experience, and knowledge there was never going to be any other outcome!After all the work Bud had put in, my Girlfriend and I were on holiday in Iceland when I found the courage to propose to her. She said yes, and she is absolutely besotted with the ring that Bud and I designed and created.I have absolutely no hesitation recommending Bud and his services to anyone, and whilst it's hard to take anything you read online, from a complete stranger, at anything more than face value, trust me you will NOT be disappointed!Dave and Laura

I could not recommend Bud at Si Vis Amari enough. I was looking for a unique engagement ring but could not find a style I liked. Right from the start Bud was welcoming and patient, taking the time to explain the 4 c's of the diamonds and going through different designs. I met Bud several times before finally deciding on The One. There was never any pressure to buy at all and Bud would always reply to a text or email the same day to answer any questions. Even when there was a slight issue when the ring was delivered (it had been slightly over polished by the manufacturer). I was planning to propose in Canada and so I was panicking about the replacement being delivered in time. Bud went out of his way to get the ring to me, meeting me on his day off to ensure that the perfect ring was delivered before our flight! My fiance is over the moon with her engagement ring and we are looking forward to getting our wedding rings from Bud in the near future.

Bud is brilliant! After months of knowing that I wanted to propose, but not knowing where to start as I did not know anything about diamonds or rings, and being somewhat daunted about the whole process - I came across Si Vis Amari online and was immediately impressed by the reviews they had received. I knew from my first telephone contact with Bud that I was in safe hands. At our first meeting he extremely patiently explained the different options available to me and his professional guidance helped me find the perfect ring and diamond with none of the stress I feared! In fact because Bud is such a lovely guy I actually enjoyed the process! The price was extremely reasonable too, and Bud never pressured me to overspend. My fiancée loved her ring and we returned to Bud to find our wedding rings, which again were perfect for us. Could not recommend him highly enough! Thanks, Matt (&Jeny)
