This place is the home of ''wear what you have jewelry'. It all started with a free cleaning for a pair of 'special needs' diamond stud earrings. Purchased years ago from an antique shop, they were such a 'deal', I couldn't resist. Old cut gems with six claws per stone and posts that had to be screwed on.
They turned out to be such a nuisance that I never wore them. In the discussion prior to cleaning, it was suggested that I consider re-setting them. Really? It had never occurred to me. The result was stunning! With 3 claws in white gold, the stones were out of their claw jail and glittered with joy!

I’ve been a customer of Ragnar’s Design Studio for 27 years. It all started with my desire to have a truly unique wedding ring - one that wasn’t readily available from large jewellery franchises that are mass produced, rather, I wanted something I knew was custom-made for me. The first thing that immediately caught my eye was the style of Ragnar’s rings - each one truly a timeless statement piece you can be proud to wear your entire life and hand down for generations as legacy pieces. They are substantial - truly works of art on your finger that are amazingly comfortable to wear. The signature

We have had an amazing experience at Ragnar's. Bill first helped us with bringing back to life a 1959 vintage family heirloom engagement ring which was in disrepair. It is my Grandma Ruth's ring, originally created at Chester Pegg Jeweller's in London, ON. As well, Bill helped us create a custom wedding band that perfectly matches down to the finest details such as colour/quality/size of the diamonds, the small triangle cutouts, width/style of the band, and the arrow notch on each side. The result is two rings that look like they were always meant to be together, despite being created 60+ years

Many thanks to Bill who helped me take a bracelet I never wore (as it had rough edges which caught on things)and change it to a necklace. It is now spectacular! Bill and the goldsmiths designed to necklace to balance and hang perfectly. The workmanship is excellent and all done within the timeframe stated and according to the very reasonable estimate.
If you have jewelry you are not wearing, i would recommend talking to Bill to discuss creative ideas so you can wear and enjoy your jewelry.

I took in some pieces I inherited from a dear family member, to see what could be repaired and how much it would be. Juliana helped me out, and she was so friendly and kind! She gave me all the options, there was no pressure at all. I just got back my jewellery and it has been beautifully restored - looks brand new. I’m so pleased to be confidently wearing my jewellery again. I’ll be back! Thank you!

We have been clients of Ragnar for 24 years now and they have always offered the absolute best in customer service. Over the years, they have made us custom pieces that we could not be happier with and can't compare to anything else. Since moving to the East Coast, they have continued to support us in maintaining our most prized pieces with the same exceptional quality and service as if we still lived in the Lower Mainland. Thank you to Mr Ragnar, Diane and the whole Ragnar team for all your help. We love you all!

I brought my wedding ring in to have it resized and now it fits perfectly. We were introduced to Mr. Ragnar who is a very friendly, genuine man who also assisted us in upgrading my wife's diamond earrings. His staff was very helpful and accommodating. We highly recommend Ragnar Jewellers and will definitely be bringing our future business to them.!
Sincerely,
R Scott

Excellent Customer service! I’ve inherited a beautiful Ragnar pendant I didn’t know much about. I contacted Ragnar Jewellers and they were very helpful in providing me with all the necessary information. Their jewelry pieces are not just beautiful, they are timeless! All pieces are exquisitely well made with an outstanding craftsmanship that could be passed on trough generations. I will highly recommend Ragnar to my family and friends!

I went to Ragnar Jewellers several months ago on a mission to custom design my engagement ring using diamonds from my fiance's mom and great aunt, and from my grandmother's engagement ring. I had some ideas of what I was hoping to do but I was a bit nervous - I'm by no means an expert jewelry designer, nor do I have really any experience with buying fancier, non-costume, jewelry. I felt like I was a bit all over the map about my hopes.
Angie and Diane received me on that first day so warmly, so professionally, and my experience over the few months that followed only continued from

I walked into the shop knowing some things I wanted in a newly designed wedding/engagement combo ring. IO met Diane and she told me that she loved designing rings. She emailed some sketches and it went from there. Her service, listening, attention to detail, patience in going slowly step by step was second to none. I am a very fussy person and… wanted to make sure I was happy with every minor detail before the final cast was made. The placement of the diamonds took several visits too. My husband picked it up today as it had to be sized a bit smaller and I am thrilled with the end result

They advertise "first sizing free" on their receipts/pamphlets, but know that ISN'T the case. Apparently only certain situations and rings apply to this rule (even though they don't have any fine print anywhere and it wasn't verbally explained).
I took 3 rings to have them resized and plated, explained I never used my free sizing and was told that the associate would look into that. I never heard anything after that point until I went to pick up my rings and was billed $650. I expected to be paying no more than $175, since I was aware of the plating as per the associates
