Testimonials

Highly recommend the work of Simon from Ribs and Dust! Having never met before, he spoke to me like we he knew me and took interest in my ideas. His craftsmanship is incredibly authentic and original. I love my piece!
After browsing endless internet pages for a ring for my partner, I was recommended ribs & dust (Simon Goodburn) by a friend. Simon is extremely talented and knowledgeable in what he does. He has incredible attention to detail and uses excellent materials to create his products. Both Simon and his wife were extremely personable and engaging, making the whole process even more enjoyable. Simon also provided regular updates about the progress of the ring and responded promptly to any queries we had along the way. The ring was everything we had envisioned (and more) and my partner and I absolutely adore it. It was an absolute pleasure working with Simon and I would recommend him to anyone who is seeking a bespoke and top quality piece of jewellery. I look forward to working with Simon on another piece sometime in the future.
I am so grateful for being referred to Simon. I’m not only overwhelmed by the beauty of the ring he produced, but how he included me in the process of it being made. I highly recommend anyone who is looking to get a beautiful and unique custom ring.
Wonderfully friendly, incredible possibilities and awesome craftsmanship. I had my partner’s engagement ring crafted by Simon at Ribs & Dust after sitting down with Simon and together coming up with a unique and bespoke design. It turned out even better than anticipated. Will be returning for our wedding bands. Can not recommend highly enough. Thank you, Simon!
What an amazing experience dealing with Simon... we could not be happier and would highly recommend Ribs and Dust to everyone! Thank you so much again Simon.
Simon made a wedding ring for me that my wife designed with him. It’s beautiful! He did an amazing job and was so kind and helpful throughout the process! It’s an honor to wear something so wonderfully crafted by hand.
I had the pleasure of working with Simon as we designed and crafted the unique engagement ring I gave my partner Polly. Simon was incredibly helpful with sound knowledge and craftsmanship, always keeping me updated via messages, photos and face to face visits to the studio. Would highly recommend and will be revisiting for our wedding rings.
Simon was amazing, getting all the little details we were after and produced a beautiful wedding band. The best craftsmanship you will find. Customer service was perfect and we will definitely be ordering more in the future. Thank you Simon.
Simon at Ribs and Dust handmade our wedding bands, and engagement ring. We came across Simon by chance and couldn’t have been more fortunate. The effort and attention to detail he has given our jewellery has been incredible, and the final pieces are equally as impressive. From the start of the process to the end, he kept us up to date, and explained processes and we worked together to create jewellery with our ideas and his guidance and expertise. We couldn’t be more chuffed with the final pieces. We have already started planning our next pieces! Thanks Simon
I am crazy about customer service AND These guys are awesome! The guys at Ribs and Dust designed a ring for my partner for Christmas. I reached out to them over Instagram message after seeing how many their work is. They responded so quickly and have been so awesome throughout the process - I received multiple update images of the ring coming together. The guys made me feel apart of the process and were so easy to chat to! I am stoked with the outcome. It is even better than I thought. Would ABSOLUTELY recommend and will certainly be back! Thanks so much guys.
I got the Great White pendant necklace from Ribs & Dust and it was so beautiful. Completely handcrafted and the weight and the fit and how it lays on my neck is even more beautiful than I could’ve imagined! Any question I had was answered right away and a hand written note came with the sweetest wrapped package. I can’t wait to get more pieces from Ribs & Dust in the future!
The quality and craftsmanship of each piece is absolutely incredible. The custom rings make such special and personalised gifts. Despite the incompetence of Australia Post, Simon arranged for the ring to arrive just in time for my anniversary. As much as I want to keep Ribs and Dust a secret jeweler for me to use until the end of time, I would recommend them to anyone looking for unique, handmade, quality jewelry
Simon was amazing. From the easygoing design session in his studio to the finished product, Ribs & Dust created a great set of bespoke wedding bands that my VERY SOON wife to be and I will wear and cherish forever.
I have had 3 unique and different custom pieces made by Ribs & Dust and am in love with each of them. Went to Simon with rough ideas and he listened and then came back to me after putting his creative touch to each piece. So passionate about what he does and a great guy to work with, very easy process from concept to end product. I would not hesitate to recommend Simon and the beautiful work he does.
Amazing jewellery and exceptional service! A huge thanks to Simon for creating a stunning sterling silver cuff as a 40th birthday present for a very dear friend. It's so great to find passionate artists that live locally!! Will definitely be back.
I love the bespoke pieces of ribs and dust!! I have a necklace and ring, and my husband and son both have rings. I get asked constantly where I purchased my opal ring from as it’s such high quality and so unique. Our whole family has been so happy with our jewelry and Simon is so easy to work with. He understands your ideas and listens and is highly creative. Thankyou ribs and dust for making such beautiful jewelry, I would highly recommend to anyone.
Amazing jewellery made by one of the nicest jewellers around! Never been disappointed. Always beautiful products with exceptional quality. I’ve been back a few times and will continue.
Simon has been incredible to work with. His customer service is amazing and his hand crafted rings are beyond beautiful. Can’t recommend this guy enough!
I went to Ribs and Dust to get my boyfriend a more personal 21st birthday present made and had the most wonderful experience! Simon was very helpful in turning my vision into reality. He understood exactly what I wanted and created the most beautiful ring for my boyfriend. I am super stoked with the experience and can’t wait to get something special made for myself soon!
Simon was extremely easy to deal with and made a stunning engagement ring in a short time frame. Amazing quality and style and I will be looking to get wedding rings done by Ribs and Dust aswell. 10/10
I went the nontraditional route and decided to get a custom engagement ring for my fiancé. My partner likes unique pieces as he is into jewellery so I wanted to make it really special. I worked with Simon to create a concept together and he went above and beyond, I couldn’t have done what I wanted with anyone else. He was so easy to work with, well priced and his work is next level amazing. Our special rings were better than I could have expected and my partner is stoked to have his own epic piece to wear every day with me!
Flipping EPIC! Perfect ability to capture the rawness and finesse it takes to create such amazing Jewellery.. GET ON IT if you haven’t. Me and my wife’s rings are really special and that’s all thanks to Ribs and Dust
Very happy with my amazing one of a kind wedding ring made by the skilful hands of Simon at Ribs and Dust. Great customer service and communication. I enthusiastically recommend ribs and dust without hesitation.
Simon was prompt to reply to emails, happy to make last minute changes and most importantly, able to recreate the vision for my ring so that I can wear it with pride! I highly recommend his custom work and will be back for more!
I first got in touch Simon back in Nov ‘17 when I enquired about an engagement ring for my now fiancé. I could not have been more stoked at the piece that Simon and I came up with! My fiancé constantly gets compliments on her ring (daily!) and people are always asking where her ring is from! We recently returned back to Simon for our wedding bands and he has pulled through with the goods once again! We could not be happier with the end result! Simon, you legend! You are a master and very talented at what you do! If you are looking for a ring for the big day or to pop the big question, or just an elegant and unique piece of jewellery, look no further than Simon from Ribs and Dust!
