An exquisite selection: Westende Jewellers
For over 50 years, family-owned business Westende Jewellers has been providing an exquisite selection for the bride and groom.
The spacious store in Sydenham showcases an extensive array of New Zealand-made engagement and wedding rings – plus new and antique jewellery. “We offer many different styles, sizes and combinations of finishes, stones and metals, including a huge range for men,” says owner Andrew Kelso. “We go above and beyond for our customers; it’s not just about making a sale – we love to see their joy and excitement when they find or create the perfect piece.”
To help facilitate this, Westende Jewellers has the largest range of new and vintage wedding rings in the South Island. This means the bride and groom can try on different widths, styles and colours to confidently select the perfect symbol of their love and devotion. And with all their new wedding rings being made in NZ, using precious metals from an NZ refinery, the benefits are three-fold – a beautiful specially-made piece, supporting local businesses, and guaranteed quality in a timely manner – most rings are ready within 10 working days.
Custom service is also available, which is a popular choice for those wanting to create a one-off ring or piece specifically tailored to their own or a loved one’s preferences. “Whether we’re making it from scratch, repairing a treasured family heirloom or redesigning an old piece, we work closely with our customers to either restore it to its former glory or design and create a one-off, custom-made item that is totally unique.”
Truly a family affair, Westende Jewellers was established by Andrew’s parents in 1967, and his daughter recently joined the talented team – three generations with a love of fine jewellery.
From engagement rings to bridalwear, earrings, watches or special gifts, the expert team can help find the perfect item for any occasion. The store also stocks Karen Walker, Stolen Girlfriends Club, Evolve and Stow Jewellery.
