Murphy Jewellers
Bespoke Jewellery
For over 120 years, at the same location on Kilkenny’s High Street, the Murphy / Costello family have been forging heirlooms - capturing memories in precious metals, jewels and craft. Our highly skilled jewellery, diamond and gemstone experts are dedicated to creating exceptional quality bespoke diamond engagement rings and wedding rings, unique gemstone engagement rings and cocktail rings and collaborative jewellery makeovers and custom gifts.
Bespoke Engagement Rings
Every couple is unique, in their style, personality, likes / dislikes, expectations, dreams, budget, etc... Here at Murphy Jewellers we celebrate those differences and endeavour to guide you and your partner to an engagement ring that reflects you.
A bespoke engagement ring at Murphy Jewellers can be simple and classic, like special engraving, different diamond size or setting, to all the bells and whistles with a complete customisation from design concept to finger.
Jewellery Makeovers & Remakes
Do you have unworn, unloved jewellery that is in need of a makeover? Maybe you don't like the look or the design, maybe it doesn't fit properly or is in poor repair.
The most requested bespoke jewellery makeovers at Murphy Jewellers are recycling diamonds and/or gemstones from unworn rings into a brand new ring or pendant design.
Murphy Jewellers' expert goldsmiths and gemmologist can take those unworn pieces and turn them into to something you will love.

Big thanks to Martin, Stephen and the team at Murphy Jewellers for the expert advise & guidance in both designing a custom engagement ring & in helping it come to fruition. Martin couldn't have been of more help, explaining each step of the process from stone selection to settings & budget management. Can't overstate my satisfaction (and hers) with the end product and the level of customer service.

The first and only place we went for a ring! Martin was so helpful (and patient) throughout the process, and knowledgeable every step of the way. Once we made our decision (even though it was a particularly busy time) they had the ring resized in no time. They all went above and beyond for us. Thanks so much to Martin, Stephen and all the team at Murphys.

Contacted them online about an engagement ring. Within a very short time got a response and Martin began talking me through everything. The level of knowledge and service was like nothing I've experienced before. We then had a private viewing and were able to go through the various rings and styles. After picking a ring the level of service was excellent with no issues about resizing or changing the ring. Simply cannot recommend Murphy Jewellers enough.
~ Michael Holohan
While I knew I'd be buying my ring in Murphy's I had browsed elsewhere to get a better idea of the style I'd like. Of the nine shops I'd visited, none compared to the standard of service and knowledge of Murphy's. I'm so grateful to Martin for all his help (and patience) in helping me pick my ring. I'm absolutely delighted. I would highly recommend Murphy Jewellers to anyone.
~ Niamh Buggy
Great & efficient service, couldn’t recommend more! Asked for some help online with Martin and within days I had a personalised signet ring to my door in Dublin! He was so helpful and even let me post it back for resize as the ring was a gift! So glad I came across Murphy Jewellers, I will definitely be back!
~ Rachel Gallagher
I contacted Martin & had we consulted via Zoom. His knowledge and advice was much appreciated and he couldn't have been more helpful. Finally got to call down in person to finalise the ring I wanted and it was collected last week. Pleased to report everything went perfectly and my fiancé absolutely loves her ring. The whole process was made so easy - highly, highly recommend.
