I purchased a lovely Trombone Link Albert Chain from Howell 1870 that I absolutely adore. It was my first time purchasing from them and the correspondence was friendly, they were extremely accommodating, shipping was speedy and the item’s description was bang-on accurate. This was a thoroughly pleasurable shopping experience — thank you!

Lorraine was so lovely to deal with and very patient with all my questions. Delivery of my item wasn't straightforward, but Lorraine went above and beyond to help me with my purchase. When it arrived, I was delighted as it was even more stunning than it looked online. I was a bit reticent as it was the first time I have bought valuable jewellery online, but after my experience with Howell 1870, I would definitely recommend this business as they are very reliable and trustworthy.

We have bought several pieces from Howell 1870 over time and have never been disappointed. Lorraine and Alex are charming, knowledgeable, helpful and straight in their dealings. This honest approach and desire to find and offer exactly what a customer seeks is five star. Not always easy! Highly recommended.

Knowledgeable, Approachable, and Kind. I bought a small and reasonably inexpensive charm from Howell but they still gave me fabulous customer service as though I had purchased something much more significant. A really overall pleasant experience with this shop.

Amazing team providing incredible service! I was looking everywhere for a thinner trombone & love link necklace with no luck. Howell1870 found me the most perfect link and went above & beyond throughout the process. Super helpful, patient, warm & passionate!

The antique cross is so stunning. Your selection of antique jewelry is second to none. Fabulous pieces to add to anyone's collection! I am to proud to own such history and be able to wear it!

Alex and Lorraine were extremely gracious to work with during my recent purchase that involved an exchange. Alex went above and beyond in finding just the perfect necklace. Communication and follow-though were excellent and they went above the call of duty. I cannot recommend Howell1870 highly enough! Don't hesitate!

Stunning piece of jewellery, exactly as described. Excellent communication throughout. Thanks so much.

I've personally never been a fan of big chain jewellers as I love unique pieces with a bit of age. I've bought a few pieces of jewellery from Lorraine and recommend anyone looking for a special, one-off piece to contact Howell 1870. All of their reviews are 5 star and the reason is they are the absolute best!
