“We were so happy and excited to be joined by happy couples planning their wedding day and choosing their life time wedding rings.”

He added: “Our newly designed jewellery wall at the front of the store was greeted with fantastic reactions as returning and new customers joined us for our reopening.

“We were also able to be part of a few of our younger customers magic moments, whilst we pierced their ears for the first time so they would be able to show their friends during the summer holidays.”
