They are all absolutely beautiful. Each and every one was made perfectly and the colors were exactly as described
Absolutely love my jewellery and I cannot wait to wear it.
It's so beautiful, intricate and feminine. Absolutely stunning. 💕
I ordered the starfish clips (two different styles) and originally ordered in 2 separate colour schemes as wasn't aware that I could request customisation, and on seeing this Kathleen contacted me to confirm if I'd wanted two different colours or the same. When I sent a picture of the bridesmaid dress I was hoping to match, she worked up a sample in a colour scheme to match and sent me a picture so I could see. It matched perfectly - and she also created some earrings in the same colour scheme which I then got for myself!
Such great customer service - both in terms of quick responses as well as creating bespoke colour schemes to match what I needed. On top of that, the clips are absolutely beautiful!! Would 100% recommend and can't wait to use them at the wedding.
Excellent sero
Living in the subtropical Durban and February being the hottest month of the year - a flower corsage wasn’t going to work, I found Kathleen Barry and my son selected your beautiful rose gold corsage which was absolutely stunning and I will most definitely recommend your assesories🌺
This beautiful pin was the perfect addition to my bridal hair as my “something blue”. Delicate and high quality.
Absolutely love the jewellery received by Kathleen. Hand crafted, and great quality. We ordered the foot jewellery and some hair pins. I love them!! Order was received quickly (around 10 days) from South Africa to New Zealand. Amazing, thanks so much.
Love it, and Kathleen did a custom design for me!
My jewellery arrived perfectly, it was even more beautiful than I imagined. I asked for particular colours on all 3 peices that I ordered and nothing was a problem.
The Phia hair pins are beautiful, thank you, and the bride loved them! The service was also excellent from Kathleen when I WhatsApp queried on the delivery.

Kathleen was very helpful and friendly with communication. She tailored my chosen belt to my preference and she made a hair pin with the same beading. I am extremely happy with the product and cannot wait to add it to my dress!
Simple and elegant. Exactly what I was looking for.
Kathleen made me a bridal set consisting of a belt, earrings and a hair piece. She coloured them to match my wedding colours and they turned out lovely! I would definitely recommend her services!
I love the silver with white pearls and it fits with anything I wear! I get so many compliments and can wear it with a cashual or formal outfit 😎🥳
