    I just love my Onefooter Silver ring. I ordered it online and it fit perfectLy and arrived quickly. Dorothée’s branding and packaging is just beautiful. I hope to have a custom ring from her one day soon.

    Dorothee designed a ring for my wife’s birthday. She was very attentive to my wife’s interests and the ring turned out beautifully. Her creativity is not just in the ring design, jewel selection and crafting, but also to the beautiful packaging in which the ring arrived. Thank you, Dorothee, for making her birthday extra special.

    My wife loves jewelry and I love buying it for her. We recently had a beautiful ring custom made by Dorothee, and the process was wonderful. Dorothee is a pleasure to deal with; she is both an artist and a professional (and a warm lovely person). My wife has a number of pieces by Dorothee acquired over the years, and most days I see her wearing at least one of them. Buying jewellery for a discerning spouse can be challenging, but if your significant other does not have a OneFooter ring by Dorothee, I highly recommend that as a great starting point (followed by a OneMetre bangle, then an Ignite necklace...)

    I purchased a Maple Leaf sterling silver ring to replace my worn out thin wedding ring from Dorothee at a craft fair last summer in Halifax. The ring is very special to me because it has an intricate imprint of a maple leaf. I recently had to replace the ring after losing it in the surf in Maui and quickly contacted Dorothee to replace it when I returned home. The order was placed online and I received the ring within three business days. Dorothee immediately confirmed the purchase and continued to follow up to ensure delivery & satisfaction. I am very pleased with my very special ring and would invite anyone interested in unique crafted jewellery to check out her website.

    I first discovered Dorothée's jewelry in a small gallery in Antigonish, Nova Scotia where I purchased a "1 footer" necklace and two "1 footer" rings.  I absolutely love the pieces.  Dorothée's designs are so unique and well crafted, which attracted me to her creations in the first place.  I just purchased two pairs of earrings from Dorothée, which are equally exquisite.

    I have purchased several items from Dorothée. I love the quality and organic nature of her work. Each piece has an intimate feel about it, almost as if she has coaxed it into life ... working with its potential and natural physical properties to produce a one-of-a-kind beauty that is a joy to wear. It is clear from the feedback of others that I am not alone in this. It seems to me that her creative skills as a jeweller are just the start of the process ... her obvious love of the natural world and the attention she brings to each client's individual needs somehow transforms mere beautiful objects into absolute treasures that have an almost spiritual property about them. It has to be said that her personal qualities are also second-to-none. She has a genuine, friendly way about her, and her customer service is extremely reliable and trustworthy.

    A very special thank you to Dorothee Rosen for my “born again” ring! I selected one of Dorothee Rosen’s silver rings at the Designer’s Craft Show approximately three years ago as a Christmas present from my daughters. This ring was worn on my baby finger and I loved the intricate design of it. Unfortunately, as I now have arthritis in my finger joints, I have had to remove it permanently. I decided to contact Dorothee Rosen after reading her article in the Refined Halifax magazine. In the time frame of 3 hours I had emailed her asking if there was anything that could be done about my ring. She replied immediately and invited me to her studio where she worked on resizing my ring to perfectly fit my finger. I left there a very happy client wearing what looked like a brand new beautiful ring. She is such a pleasant person and I also was given advice on a holistic remedy for arthritis. So now my unique “born again” ring is glistening on my hand again. Thank you Dorothee Rosen!

    Just over a week ago I contacted Dorothee as I had lost my beloved twofooter ring that I had bought from Toronto's AGO a few years ago. Dorothee immediately messaged me back and helped me nail down exactly what ring I wanted and how I would like it to be wound. She sent me photos and made sure she understood what I wanted. In just a few days it was made and mailed and I received it a week after I first contacted her, all beautifully wrapped with real care and attention. My new ring is stunning, exactly how I had requested it and with immaculate craftsmanship and artistry. Dorothee made the whole process so easy and fast. It was a real pleasure buying a unique piece of jewelry from her.

    I have just purchased my second ring from Dorothee and I have to say that the 2 rings are both so comfortable that I sometimes forget that they are on and I kind of jump until I touch or look at them to confirm they are still there. Which is novel for me. I have gotten used to my original one, the weight and fit, so I don't often worry about it. But I have never had rings in my life that have been comfortable enough to wear all day, every day. And working with Dorothee is such a pleasure, she takes amazing care of her customers even long after the transactions are complete!

    So happy with the Dragonfly earrings I ordered as a birthday gift. Great service, beautifully wrapped and the earrings are so beautiful and delicate. Thank you, Dorothée!

    I bought my first ring by Dorothée Rosen at the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto. I loved it so much that I had her make a custom diamond and palladium ring for me. It’s stunning! Dorothée is extremely professional, and a pleasure to work with. I will definitely work with her again!

    My wife wanted a family ring to reflect our grandchildren's birthdays and so I got to work choosing a goldsmith. I came across Dorothée's website and the first photo said my wife's name. Contacting Dorothée we had a consultation between her, my wife and I. She listened to our thoughts and concerns and came up with a ring my wife absolutely loves. I would recommend Dorothée's work and art to anyone. She is a joy to work with.

    Your latest `family ring' design is spectacular! I love the asymmetrical shapes of the stones and the arrangement of them on the ring is so pleasing to the eye. Kudos!

    This spring I received the best surprise ever - a custom-designed diamond ring. An exciting occasion for any person for sure, but for me it was truly special, given my age and the fact that I had never aspired to owning anything so beautiful. My partner suggested a couple of local designers, and Dorothée Rosen easily stood out as the right one for us. Our experience was a very pleasant one from start to finish, not just because she is a very professional and gifted goldsmith, but because she was so invested in our happiness. The business part of it was easy, with reasonable terms and the ability to sign off on everything electronically. Our visits were pure joy, having Dorothée there to guide us through our design decisions and helping us choose those unique touches that made it all very personal to us. Plus, we got to see “where the magic happens!” It was difficult deciding which type of gold to go with, so she accommodated me by using my favourite two! I have a truly unique, absolutely gorgeous ring. Thinking back on the day we went to pick it up still makes me smile. After my Special Someone put it on my finger and I had a few minutes to admire it, it occurred to me that perhaps it was meant to be worn the other way around. When I asked Dorothée if this was the way it was supposed to be worn, she said, “it is on you.” Without intending, it almost always ends up exactly the way he placed it on my finger every time a put it on. I’ll never turn it around the other way. Thank you, Dorothée, for knowing what this meant to me and for sharing our joy. I now have ‘a Dorothée Rosen’, and I couldn’t be happier! Victoria
