John Hamilton – Lawyer | Brisbane

My friendship and business association with Peter goes back 20 years. I have commissioned several pieces over the years (including an engagement ring) and have always been delighted with the handcrafted results. He is gifted in design and a professional in every sense of the word. With sincere thanks!

Douglas J Campbell – Barrister-at-Law | Brisbane

I have purchased several pieces of jewellery for my wife from Peter. They are sturdy, elegant, eye-catching, beautiful and pleasing to me and my wife. She wears every piece every day and loves them. We tell everyone Peter made the pieces for us. I am already thinking about my next jewellery project – a diamond necklace.

Douglas J Campbell - Barrister-at-Law | Brisbane

M Musial | Hill End

I used Peter to design and manufacture a ring to match my wife’s engagement ring. The result was a spectacular success. The new ring is very beautiful and much loved. I can certainly recommend Peter’s skill as a manufacturing jeweller, his taste as a designer and his ingenuity in putting the whole thing together.

John S Miles – Barrister-at-Law | Brisbane

Peter designed my engagement ring for me 2 years ago. To this day I still get complimentary comments on the quality of the design of my ring. He was very helpful compared to other jewellery stores who were not terribly interested in what I wanted. Peter always does what he can to deliver what you want, whether it is looking for certain stones or redesigning. He listens to what you want and doesn’t force his ideas. I will always go back to Peter because I know I’m getting quality as well as value for money.

Peter Josephson | ABN Amro Morgans, St Lucia

Thankyou very much indeed for manufacturing Kathryn’s engagement ring. I was absolutely delighted with the design and the quality of the workmanship and, I think it is fair to say Kathryn was ever more thrilled. The quality of your service and the value for money that I received were excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone. Once again, my thanks for a job well done.

Martin Cardier | Brisbane

Peter has made my engagement, wedding and eternity rings. All of them are fabulous. Peter is always a pleasure to talk to during the design process, and keeps us updated on how the work is going. We will certainly be going back to see him in the future. I think I am going to need more fingers!

Martin Cardier | Brisbane

Chad Egan | Balmain Prestige Cars, Sydney

I went to Peter with some design ideas and budget for a platinum diamond engagement ring. He guided me through the diamond selection and ring design process with professionalism, patience and expertise. No question was too much trouble for Peter to answer, he explains everything so I understood, and this approach gave me the confidence I needed from a Jeweller to give Peter my business. The end result is an utterly stunning, exceptional quality diamond engagement ring that my fiancé is thrilled and excited to wear on her finger. Peter’s workmanship and the overall design experience far exceeded my expectations. I thoroughly recommend Bakker Diamonds to anybody.

Amy | Cloncurry, Qld

Peter rang me from Brisbane about a vehicle we had in the yard here in Sydney. After many phone calls I revealed to him that I was approaching a time where I would be in the market for an engagement ring. I forwarded Peter the designs that Lisa preferred and he sourced a beautiful cushion cut diamond and made the ring for me. I am yet to meet Peter but his business approach has been impressive and he delivered great design and what I believe from my research, excellent value for money. I would have no hesitation in recommending him. Unfortunately I never sold him the car, but I will endeavour to get him next time!

Amy | Cloncurry, Qld

Sophie Drum | Brisbane

After having engagement and wedding rings made by Peter, we would have absolutely no hesitation in talking to him first for any jewellery in the future. His personal service and assistance was greatly appreciated, and he was able to turn our ideas into something that receives countless compliments. We have already recommended him to a number of our friends.

Sophie Drum | Brisbane

Andy Harris | Sydney

We were mid Pacific Ocean, sailing from the UK back home to Australia, when I emailed Peter about an engagement ring. I wanted something simple yet sophisticated. Shortly after docking in Brisbane we finalised the design with Peter, and weeks later it was ready. I was on the bus the other day and the man sitting next to me apologised for continuing to look over, as he was just admiring my beautiful ring. Thank you for the ring Peter. It is perfect!

Andy Harris | Sydney

Anna Musson (nee McPherson) | Brisbane

Peter, the ring looked fantastic on Louise’s finger, I proposed to her on Saturday night, and she accepted! It was at Brett’s Wharf Restaurant in Hamilton, and we shared our 2004 reserve Shiraz from Seville Estate Yarra Valley. I had roses for her as well. Once again thankyou for being a part in this journey, she had no idea, and she was really gobsmacked! Your service was great, as was the feedback. The quality of the ring is excellent (stone & band). I would certainly recommend you to my friends.

Dear Peter, Thankyou for your help with the design and creation of our beautiful engagement and wedding rings; they are exactly what we wanted!

Jane Hill | Brisbane

Peter was recommended to me by a close friend who advised me that the guy was amazingly talented and a really good bloke. It seemed like a good combination to me, but I was even more impressed once I met him. He designed Jodi’s engagement ring which started with me having no clue about diamonds or design, I just knew I wanted a ring that would make her say yes. After the first meeting I felt like we were old friends as Peter educated me about diamonds and we worked on a design. The choice of rocks was amazing, he really understood what I was looking for and he was upfront and comfortable discussing costs. He blew me away with the finished product which was elegant and timeless – and of course got an overwhelming yes from Jodes. Thank you Peter for such a fantastic job, I look forward to employing your craftsmanship again and highly recommend you to all my friends and colleagues.

Dimity Powell (soon to be Holland) | Brisbane

Hi Peter, I LOVE IT!!!! You got the ratio between the band and centre stone absolutely perfect. I LOVE the way the setting sits away slightly from the band…..I didn’t know it was going to do that and I love it!! Its delicate and classic while being contemporary and clean. The Asscher diamond just looks superb. I really can’t thank you enough…..the whole process was just so easy and the result has exceeded my expectations….which were very high! See you in a year for the matching wedding band.

Tracey Lowe | Brisbane

Peter, I have to say I was very surprised and impressed with Charlie’s new found knowledge of diamonds when he proposed to me with what is now sitting on my finger! It means so much more to me knowing that Charlie put the time and care into choosing a special diamond just for me and was able to do this thanks to you. Thank you also for all the advice you gave me when I was virtually clueless about what setting I wanted! I absolutely love my ring and thank you so much for the fast turn around to get it onto my finger. We are both delighted with the result will be back soon to get started on the wedding band!

Gary Mulcahy | G.M. Formal Hire in Red Hill, Brisbane

Hi Peter, the stones you found for us are perfect. It was great to receive them loose, and have the opportunity to ponder the different ways my engagement ring could look. It makes a very special piece of jewellery even more meaningful. The mock-ups you provided were exactly as requested and helped me decide which style to go for. The finished product is beautiful, in fact better than I imagined. You’ve done a fantastic job!

Gary Mulcahy | G.M. Formal Hire in Red Hill, Brisbane

Trish Smith

Hi Peter. Bronwyn absolutely loved the ring, in fact she’s going to ring and thank you herself. She couldn’t wait to show it off to all her friends over the weekend. Unqualified success. Thanks once again

Charlie Cush | Brisbane

Hi Peter I just wanted to let you know that I absolutely love the engagement ring that you made for Matt and I. I’ve been wearing it since Friday and I love the design. It somehow manages to look contemporary yet classic at the same time which is exactly the look I was after. So thanks once again Peter and thank you too for making it so quickly for us. Now I just need to stop looking at it all day!! ps I’ve had so many wonderful comments about it!

Charlie Cush | Brisbane

Terry Peabody | Brisbane

We visited Bakker Diamonds with a range of wedding ring ideas, however no clear concept of what it was we really wanted. Peter walked us through several options. His manner was open and supportive, the advice he offered was informed and had great depth and we felt no pressure. The decision was ultimately our own. A family heirloom had been passed down the line in the form of an antique engagement ring. We were touched by the significance of the gesture, however we also wanted to ensure that any ring that we were intending to keep for the rest of our lives was our own. Peter was able to add new life to the antique ring and artistically crafted a beautiful wedding ring that matched the original down the to the hand engraved finish with the addition of plenty of sparkling diamonds. The finished product is extremely tasteful, a beautiful artistic piece and best of all feels like it is now our own!

Sophie Guinguard | Sydney

Peter, I just want to thank you again for all of your effort in creating such a beautiful engagement ring. From our unhurried initial meeting discussing what I had in mind, through to picking up the completed ring, the entire experience was a pleasure. The detailed sketch you supplied was great and gave me confidence that the end result would be superb. The completed ring was even more stunning than I imagined it would be. I really appreciate all of your advice and your pressure-free approach, we will enthusiastically recommend you to friends and colleagues.

Sophie Guinguard | Sydney

Celeste Stallard | Brisbane

Hi Peter, I have now recovered from the shock of seeing the gorgeous ring you have designed for us. And I now want to say thank you, it trully is stunning!!! I LOVE it. You really have captured what I was after, which made me realise that this was definitely what I was after!!! It just takes me that much longer to open any doors as I keep looking at the ring! There’s even cases where I have actually walked into them!!! I love the way the diamond is visible from all angles and the way it catches so much light! It actually manages to shine in the dark! I Love it! Thank you again!

Celeste Stallard | Brisbane

Dr Rupert Templeman | Gilberton, SA

Hi Peter, Just emailing to say thanks for making my engagement ring and wedding ring. They are perfect and look just as i imagined. Also thanks for your honest opinion when we were picking the diamond and working within our budget. Thanks again.

Amy Ritson | Brisbane

Peter, wanted to let you know the ring has been an absolute unmitigated bonanza of a success….everyone completely loves it most of all the special girl herself……Penny has actually achieved notoriety at the hospital where she works and is now referred to as Dr Diamond. I’m pretty happy with that outcome! Many thanks and we all look forward to the next big purchase.

Amy Ritson | Brisbane

Mark Thompson | Central Hong Kong

Hi Peter, Thank you so much for the lovely ring that you have created. It was worth the wait! I can’t tell you how pleased I am with the final product.

Mark Thompson | Central Hong Kong

Stephen Vincent | Brisbane

During the search for the right diamond, I communicated frequently with Peter via email from Hong Kong. He was able to locate a magnificent cushion cut in a cutting factory in Europe that suited our budget and he personally made it to our design. Now we have an eye-catching ring with breath-taking diamonds. Peter’s hand-on approach gave us great confidence and we would not hesitate to use his services again.

Stephen Vincent | Brisbane

Pauline Arnold | Rockhampton

It’s been 6 months now since Roz received your creation and not a day goes by without a compliment from a friend or complete stranger. I have seen women stop and stare! Anyone in the market for a ring I have pointed in your direction. Not just for the final product, but the painless journey you took me through to get there.

Pauline Arnold | Rockhampton

Tony Davidson | Chevron Island

Hi Peter, I’d like to thank you again for creating such a beautiful engagement ring for me. I still catch myself looking at it throughout the day – the novelty hasn’t worn off yet.

Tony Davidson | Chevron Island

Andrew Briand | Brisbane

Thanks Peter, your final price of diamond and platinum ring came in at the same price we could get the diamond only on the internet, so it really helped to be able to choose from the stones you had. See you soon for the wedding rings!

Andrew Briand | Brisbane

Mark & Fiona Chapman | Brisbane

Hi Peter, just would like to thank you again for helping me think of a beautiful design for my fiance’. Searching for several months for the “right ring” was so overwhelming, and was very hard, as I usually found I had to compromise on something when dealing with store jewellers. You made the experience so much easier, and broke the whole design process down step by step. And I (more importantly my fiance’) got a ring that was far above our expectations. Thanks Again,

Mark & Fiona Chapman | Brisbane
