Our signature Appleby style

Margaret Appleby first began our family business in 1950’s Dublin, crafting jewellery in the family home for a select circle of customers. The focus has always been on quality, craftsmanship, creativity and attention to detail. This tradition is now proudly continued by the third generation of the family, with just as much passion as the founders.

Testimonials
.
"Wishing to have an inherited ring restyled, I visited several Dublin jewellers who told me what I wanted. Not sure how they knew this as they didn’t ask or listen.
I then went to Appelbys and met Lais who treated me so respectfully and we discussed the options together and a plan came into being. There was a small issue afterwards but Appelbys dealt with it in a most professional yet kind and thoughtful manner. I now have my ring with which I am thrilled but made more special by the attention and genuine care from the staff in Appelbys. I cannot recommend them highly enough and if I need a jewellers again, I will not waste time and energy going elsewhere.Thank you - you are the best"

"From the moment you arrive to the moment you collect your rings you are made feel special. I had a bespoke engagement ring made with an emerald and diamond to signify my Irish other half and it came out beautifully."

"I would like to say a huge thank you for the magnificent remodelling of my diamond solitaire ring. It is a sentimental ring which has been restored beautifully. Thank you Gerry for your advise and guidance I couldn't be happier. It's always a pleasure going into you and I just adore my Appleby creation. This family has enjoyed years of great service and I am glad to say my granddaughter has followed our tradition. Thank you so much"
