World-Class Factory
At Howard's, all our custom jewellery design pieces are created right here in Ottawa, in our upstairs factory, facilitating tireless quality control for every single one of our custom pieces. A mass manufacturer doesn't care about the long term quality of the piece. But at Howard's, each piece is created with the idea that itll be cherished for decades, and become a family heirloom. Every element is done to the professionalism of traditional goldsmithing.

Expert Diamond and Precious Stone Brokers
All our fine diamonds and precious gemstones are hand-picked by our GIA certified gemmologists to ensure the quality and clarity of each stone.

Custom Engagement Ring

One amazing thing about Howards is their ability to do custom pieces when necessary for you and the team is right there on site which is so cool and instilled a lot of confidence in me that Howards is a family, a group of professionals who are there to deliver to you the product that you want and they can advise you as necessary. I have never felt pressured there and always feel comfortable whether just browsing or when inquiring about a product.
Sonja helped me design my wedding band and the final product the team delivered was fantastic. She has helped me with gifts for my work team and for my wife, even a gift for myself.Thank you Howards and thank you Sonja.

10/10. Jessica helped me pick out the perfect lab diamond and also helped me understand what to look for. I appreciated her patience and advice and that was the reason I opted to go with Howards. I brought in a picture of what I wanted and Jessica said to trust her and I’m glad I did.
Fiancée loves the ring and we are both thankful for Jessica. Great personality, patience, supportive and I felt no pressure at all.
F.A.Q
Whether you're new to Howard's, new to buying jewelry, or new to custom jewelry - you're bound to have questions. Here are some frequently asked questions. If you don't see your question answered here, please contact us.
Since every custom design piece is one-of-a-kind, all costs vary. Costs are determined by factors such as preferred metal karat and quantity, costs of precious stones, and amount of labour. We build our quotes by respecting your budget, while ensuring quality is not compromised.
We believe the experience of creating something uniquely for you should be accessible to everyone. Without compromising our reputation for excellence in our craft and service, we offer competitive pricing to pieces that are available from the show-case, online, or from other retailers.
Custom design pieces typically take anywhere from 2-4 weeks to complete. However, we are flexible and can work around most time requests!
