Owning a piece of Dorothee’s artwork was a dream that finally became a reality. I admire her creativity and attention to detail. Truly a masterpiece on my ring finger. Even more delightful to get a chance to meet the maker too! Thank you!

I first met Dorothée (and her beautiful jewellery) at the Calgary craft market a few years ago. I was very impressed by the artistry of the designs and the commitment to sustainability. Fast forward to last November, we met again and I fell in love with a beautiful ring adorned with a teardrop-shaped pink sapphire. It took me a few months to think about it, and I finally purchased it last week. I received it very promptly and it is as gorgeous as I remembered! The beautiful packaging and handwritten note were also much appreciated.I’m looking forward to seeing Dorothée again at the next Calgary Craft Market and (probably) purchasing a new piece.

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

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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

I discovered Dorothée jewelry last summer in a tiny shop of Freeport, Maine, and fell in love with a onefooter ring. When I knew she was Canadian, I waited to back home in Québec City to follow her and Know more about her work of art. For her 50 years old birthday, she made this incredible discount of 50% and I decided It was my chance to get the ring I wanted, a beautiful twofooter ! She quickly answered my questions about the ring size and tried her best to make sure it would fit perfectly. I placed my order and received it a few days later. She took the Time to wrap It in a beautiful way I could feel I was receiving a special gift ! The twofooter ring is awesome and fits perfectly ! Dorothée put in the parcel a small brochure to show different pieces she designs and I will definetely buy again from her ! Thank you Dorothée !

Wow! Gorgeous jewellery and exceptional service! Dorothee Rosen's designs are lovely, and I really like how she's added gemstones to her silver rings, which, while large, are very comfortable. Highly recommended!
