  • Fantastic and friendly service. Colette went out of her way to help me and when I wasn't able to produce the goods gave great advice and suggestions for next steps. Would certainly recommend.

  • Hi Colette, got the necklace today, it looks great, a little too big so i tweaked it myself but it’s fine, my fault i told you the wrong size anyway really! – thanks for everything, i’d recommend you to anyone! I may be in touch soon anyway, about a matching, but slightly thicker-set or doubled bracelet…

  • Dear Colette

    It was with amusement that I read the rednecks response to your mouthpiece. What can I say..in fact, we need say nothing, the illiterate, backward, abusive, offensive, jerk off said it all. Not an ounce of common decency, intelligence or discretion. To be honest I think it was a ploy to get a free mouthpiece for himself…can’t remember, did he sign it with an X, or do you think he can spell his name…one can only wonder..Personally, I think your work is innovative and amusing, with a charming, if somewhat edgy feel to it. So I shall finish writing and carry on viewing…”

  • Hi, i was browsing on google for images of george bush and i came across the picture on your site (The gobstopper mouthpiece) i must say i found it hilarious, very clever. Then i read the post that an American user had added on the “Don’t read if easily offended” link. This had me literally crying
    with laughter.

    “.i didn’t even know there was a so-called country named uk or england till last week…that’s how much
    your thouth of & how much people know about your shifty crapy ass country”

    That was definitely the show stopper for me, it just shows that whoever wrote that has the mental age of a 5 year old and is most likely a MAC user….!”

  • Since buying one of Colette’s silver barbed wire choker necklaces several years ago- I’ve been lucky enough to commission four pieces from her- a ring and two pendants featuring Detroit Agate that are remarkable, and most recently a huge chunky, thick ring for my middle finger that is frankly massive! It’s another piece I’m very proud of and love dearly! Colette is approachable, friendly, professional and a total delight to brainstorm with- if you want something beautiful, visit her studio- if you want something unique… Talk about a commission- seriously great value, and a wonderful experience! She is amazing! Thank you for everything! x

  • Hello,
    I found your web site through a hearing aid search and was browsing through your gallery when I came upon the gobstopper mouthpiece and as well, the letter from the texan. I personally thought the gobstopper was hilarious.

    I really hope that you don’t think all of us Americans are like that.. more than half the country would agree with you- that Bush needs to shut it. Then you get the overly passionate republicans like that guy, who cannot even spell simple words correctly but think they know exactly what they speak of. I feel that it’s sad I can see this… being 17 and the writer of that letter is more likely older.

    I also must say, I love the pieces in your gallery. The hearing aid piece is really awesome and I believe that’s true. The hearing aid should be celebrated, not hidden. Overall, I love the pieces in your gallery… other that the gobstopper and hearing aid, I particularly like the piercing bracelet. What it represents is something all people should know the horror of. Putting such a thing that resembles an animal trap on a human, it can open eyes.

    Well, I am sorry that I’ve kept you so long. =)

  • Hi Colette,

    Oh my God! The necklace got here this morning and its beautiful. It arrived just in time as its a first anniversary gift to my partner. I really wasn’t expecting it to be here so soon as I only ordered it 2 days ago. Hopefully it fits and she likes it. If not, I’m afraid I may be forced to keep it for myself. It really is stunning and unique.

    Thanks very much!

Hi Colette
Many thanks for the advice by return some great ideas which i will act upon . Its me that should be flattered you have achieved so much you are a credit to your craft and a real inspiration The commercial jewellery trade is poles apart from the contemporary one but its where people go to to buy jewellery as the shops dominate the high street and most people don’t realise they have an alternative but thanks to people like yourself i think the tide is turning.

Thinking of commissioning Colette Hazelwood Contemporary Jewellery?

Read my FAQ for more help.

Hello Colette,

After browsing through your web site I felt compelled to respond to the Gobstopper comment. I usually respect most opinions but the comment that was sent to you in response was acidic for me to read. I would like to believe there are more people out there who feel as you and I do about the Bush regime and what is stands for. It still shocks me to the core that he even has 1 supporter. I thought your piece was brilliant! Gobstopper’s are my favorite sweet and anything to be put in Bushes mouth should be arsenic as far as I am concerned. I am relatively new to the UK having lived here for about 18 months. I am native to California and find the political situation at home very irritating. Worse still, seeing comments like this one exasperate me. I find it scary that some people might think that all Americans are brain dead hillbillies and have no idea about our foreign politics and bloody hands, but you know, hillbillies do exist even in the UK. As a jeweller I find your artwork politically exciting. I hope you do get lots positive feedback because I think being bold in life is the only way to live.” RACHAEL COLEMAN, USA

Hi Colette,

It was so lovely to meet you earlier! I just wanted to send a quick note to say a huge thank you for the ring—it’s absolutely perfect and even more beautiful than I imagined. You’ve captured the essence of the original so wonderfully, giving it a more elegant and refined feel, and I just know Grace is going to love it.

I’ll let you know how it’s received, and I’ll definitely be in touch soon about wedding rings! But for now, thank you again—it’s so special, and I couldn’t be happier with it.

Many thanks,

Tom

Please don’t be offended by that fowl-mouthed illiterate moron who had absolutely nothing to say on your website. He is not an example of how people in America are. However, he is the finest example of
the people who voted for George, which were the minority. Only fools would think that he won both elections in a row. The intelligent ones know how it really happened. I’m originally from Canada so hold
dual citizenship. With George as President, it’s difficult to be proud to be American so I remain Canadian first….

And…
please remember that idiot from Texas just constitutes a small minority of the stupidity in this country (the minority who think they won both elections). My heart goes out to whoever wins the next election as they’ve got 8 years of Georgie’s huge mess to clean up. I don’t think it will be possible. BTW, I’ve always liked Tony Blair and felt very sorry for him that he had to work with Georgie. In my opinion, that’s was brought him down…

P.S. The illiteracy and poor grammar from the boy from Texas makes me suspicious that he’s possibly a relative of the Bush clan. More than likely, he too reads his literature upside-down, eh? Better wrap up or they might put me under surveillance. 

Peace to you.

Colette Hazelwood george bush gobstopper mouth piece

Dear Colette,

Just read email sent by redneck moron and found it very funny but also quite disturbing!Really, it is hard to believe that such a frightingly stupid creature exists!

However my suspicions have been raised since I happen to have seen a programme on “Bushisms” last night and although I have since picked my jaw off the floor the language used seems achingly familiar!

I wonder do you think it was in fact written by the greatest idiot in history himself, the spelling is a strong clue? It does smack of the ultimate moron himself, the man who has single handedly done more damage to international relations and world economies than any human in the history of mankind?

In fairness I do love America and its right minded citizens but only when the democrats are in power!

Do feel free to post this email or indeed forward this message on to the redneck himself! I’ll stop now as the man makes me so angry and so nauseous that I am at a loss to describe the truly detrimental effects his tenure will have on the future of the world in general!

One final thought, maybe you would consider a once off piece for him? On this occasion I would suggest an inverted half sized barb wire necklace, if I may be so bold?

Hope this finds you peaceful and not in despair! Yours sincerely, in hope and in peace .

Hi Colette,

Just a quick mail to thank you again for creating our beautiful wedding rings. We keep getting them out of the box to look at them and can’t wait for the day we get to put them on for good ( well except when I’m working…. damn those infection control rules!!!) The process of commissioning them from you and the design process was fun and involving and we got exactly what we’ve always wanted, rings that are very us! Thanks also for brightening Darren’s days at a very dark time, seeing the rings exactly how(if not better than) we imagined them, really distracted him from his grief and gave him something positive to think about.

Hope all is well with you and yours, especially the bump, has it arrived yet?

Thanks again, Darrel


 

Hi Colette
Have been meaning to email you all week to say how pleased I was with the fastener you attached to the pendant for me. It is exactly what I wanted and I know my friend will really like it when she gets it on her birthday. Sorry you weren’t at work when I picked it up last Saturday as I would’ve
liked to have thanked you personally. I had a quick look at some of the jewellery you make and thought you had some lovely pieces on display, so I could well be back soon choosing myself a christmas present!

Thanks again

    Thank you Colette for creating more fabulous pieces of jewellery. The three bangles are really well made and a lovely mix of textures and materials.
    The citrine ring again is a mix of material and looks so simple but amazing. The pieces look really good together.
    Thank you again for making new pieces from old and unworn jewellery

    Thankyou Colette for my Fuckit necklace – it perfecly captures the spirit of my 80th birthday and makes a great addition to my collection of your wonderful jewellery – edgy and impactful.
    Thanks also for the patient and prompt response to queries – just great service all round.

    Simple elegant design. The earrings are lovely. And Colette couldn’t have been more helpful, sending me a free replacement when I lost one shortly after buying them.

  5. Hugh Cottam on January 19, 2026 at 3:24 pm

    I can highly recommend Colette Hazelwood for jewellery repairs and alterations. She altered my wedding ring and repaired a broken necklace. Both items were excellent at a reasonable cost. She sorted both items quickly and her communication was brilliant. I would definitely recommend.

  6. Charlotte on January 18, 2026 at 6:22 pm

    Answered all questions very quickly in the planning process. The final result was exactly what I wanted. Thankyou so much!!

    Hello Collette,
    I just want to thank you so much for my memorial ring. It is spectacular. The process in which you melted the metal then added my Mums Ashes is just wonderful to me.
    Not only that, working with you with my ideas to reach the final product was just great. Thank you also for allowing autonomy on my part. My ring turned out much better than even I expected. I will treasure it forever. Infact my sister wants your details now too. Keep up the great work. Happy Customer Paula

  8. Natasha on December 16, 2020 at 7:48 pm

    I have order a few things from Colette, all which are beautiful and I love. Recently my partner and I ordered the stacking rings, they are a lovely way to each show our own personalities while having something that’s linked together. Colette’s jewellery is really special as it’s quite different from the same, same jewellery from other places. I also want to mention her amazing customer service, she is so responsive, helpful and patient.

  9. Sue & Alan Williams on November 5, 2020 at 10:19 am
