Testimonials

*I want you to know that several times my jeweler in London has commented on how beautiful my ring is from you. I have never told him it is not a diamond. This is the 4 carat round solitaire ring on eternity band. This is one of the fine diamond jewelers that has a few locations, to include Harrods.

*Whitney, since we have been carrying your jewelry starting in 2016, I want you to know that no one has come back to the Gallery due to any defect. The quality is incredible and holds up beautifully.

My BEAUTIFUL Sterling 1 Carat 4 Prong Solitaire Stud earrings have arrived. They are so sparkly and so pretty. I look forward to showing them off, once I return to the outside world. In the meantime, I’ll enjoy them in the confines of my shelter-in-place surroundings. :-) I’ve got a little collection of BBW and am thrilled to have this latest addition.

Thank you! (And thanks for being so incredibly prompt with your delivery!)

*Your jewelry quality is incredible. It is so beautiful, and there is nothing like it in the world. It is more beautiful than diamonds. You completely own the market share. Someone stopped me to ask to see my ring. It was your Emerald Cut Eternity Ring Band. She said she was about to purchase a a diamond emerald cut ring. She said, "I love your diamond ring, and I told her it was a Bling by Wilkening!" She said "Now I don’t want to purchase the diamond ring. I will purchase a bling by Wilkening instead." There isn’t one piece in your collection I don’t love.

The brilliance was unbelievable. We were playing golf with a lady who has an estate jewelry collection of her own and I know she couldn't believe how incredible the classic tennis bracelet is.

*Hi Whitney....

Please send us the 18 kt. gold-plated Palace Teardrop earrings, for her mom. It is very sweet of you to keep the price the same. That is the kind of humanistic business thinking that results in repeat customers. I have two daughters and several female friends, all of whom, amazingly, have birthdays and other occasions in their lives. As the right times roll around, you can bet that I will be thinking of Wilkening, and contacting your website again.

*Comment: Hi - I purchased a pair of earrings at a trunk show at Bloomingdales a few months ago that I love and wanted to see some of the other pieces in person before purchasing them. Is there a schedule of upcoming trunk shows in the NYC area or do you have a storefront in the city? I am interested in a few of the eternity bands.

Thanks!

*Comment: Good Afternoon

I just want to email to say how impressed I was with the service I received whilst in New York. I visited Bloomingdales on Saturday and purchased a beautiful ring and earrings and everyone has commented on how amazing they look. I believe I met Whitney and I apologize as I can't remember the other womans name however both were equally fantastic! Although I know you ship to the UK it would be amazing if you had a stockist here. I had hoped to make it back for the pendant I liked but sadly didn't, perhaps I will just need to revisit New York!

Keep up the amazing work!

Thanks again

*Hi Whitney,

I just wanted to drop you a note and say it was great to meet you this afternoon at Bloomingdales! I was the one who showed you my wedding photos and purchased the 1.7 carat studs.

I came home and told my husband I bought myself a little present and showed him my new earrings. At first he was livid because he thought I had purchased real diamond studs - which as you know would be a huge investment. I had to take them off so he could examine them closely. He is so impressed with how real the earrings look.

I've been perusing your website for a while and have a feeling I'll be ordering some items pretty soon.

Thanks again for your help - I'm glad I went with the smaller studs as opposed to the 2 carat studs. They are perfect!

*Comment: Hi Whitney - I just wanted to tell you a great story - I was wearing my 5 in 1 necklace yesterday and I received a very nice complement - "are you wearing a yard of diamonds - so beautiful". And I replied.... better a 5 in 1 yard of diamonds by Bling by Wilkening. Hope all is well.

I don't normally do this, but I just had to send you a note to comment on the bracelet! Wow! It's fabulous! Really really beautiful! It had exceeded all of my expectations so greatly! Congrats!
