“I recently had the pleasure of ordering a beautiful ring from Handmade Revolution. Aurora was so patient and worked with me through the whole process. I received the ring and couldn’t be happier, I couldn’t recommend Aurora’s expertise more!”

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Aurora to create a custom statement ring, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. I reached out to her with a specific design in mind, and she brought it to life beautifully. Aurora was able to incorporate some of my grandma's old jewelry into the ring, which made the piece even more special. Throughout the entire process, she was patient, collaborative, and attentive to every detail. I love my ring and highly recommend Aurora to anyone looking for a unique, custom piece or simply a beautifully crafted piece of jewelry.”

“If you want custom quality jewelry this is the place. I had my engagement/wedding rings custom designed. I worked with Aurora to design 2 unique rings. She is very creative, communicative and professional. She understood my vision and executed it perfectly. Not only does she make exquisite jewelry, she also creates amazing custom clothing, bags, belts…(you name it she can probably create it).Want a beautiful a Dress for a special occasion, looking for a suit of armour or, like me want a custom chain mail bra. Aurora is the woman to see. I went to this awesome artist for one of the most important purchases in my life. This ring is my engagement/wedding ring. my partner and I saved up for years for this ring. I didn’t like Any rings I saw in the fancy name brand stores.I wanted someone to help me with my vision for my ring. I had spent a lot of time looking at different designs and gem stones, I wanted very specific things and wasn’t going to compromise on certain aspects of the ring. I also wanted assurances regarding where my gemstones came from. Ethical jewellery is very important to me. I put my trust in Aurora and she exceeded my expectations. We were able to create something special and unique together. I had a base vision, with out her expertise and artistic flare my dream engagement/wedding ring would not have come to fruition. I will definitely be a returning customer as I want that chain mail bra and a bracelet necklace set custom designed (girls gotta have accessories that match my awesome ring). 😜 Husbands ring on the right.”

“Aurora made the most beautiful medieval signet ring for my fiancé. I wanted to create a custom wedding ring for him as he loves medieval history and I felt what better than a signet! The entire collaboration process was lovely, I sent her photos of medieval rings expressing which parts I liked best about each, she drew inspiration from them all and created me a completely unique piece. I highly recommend Handmade Revolution for absolutely stunning one of a kind medieval pieces! Thank you again Aurora!!”

“I met Aurora at the Toronto Outdoor Art Fair in July. I had been looking for a pair of solitaire pink and black pearl stud earrings for my second and third piercings to match some pearl earrings I had bought in China. I found the perfect black pair at her booth. She mentioned she also had pink ones but hadn't had time to make them in time for the fair. I said I was also looking for pink ones but wasn't able to find them anywhere in the size I wanted. She offered to send me the link for her website so I could order them. I gave her my email and she followed up within a couple of days with the link as promised. At the show she also measured the black ones I had bought so I would know which ones to order and reminded me in the email. The earrings are beautiful. They are the perfect size for what I wanted and the are an exact match to the colour of my other pearl earrings. The quality is excellent. The customer service was amazing. If I had a question she got back to me right away. Would highly recommend.”

“Aurora is very talented especially in creating custom period pieces quickly that are influenced by a vast range of historical styles. Incredibly versatile. Whatever you want, I'm sure she can make it!”

Amanda D'oust, Ottawa

“Aurora has made several pieces of jewelry for me. The latest was originally intended to be a hair stick for a woman. I saw the beauty of her work and asked for one to display as art. Another friend made the plaque it is displayed upon. I believe that Aurora has the talent and skill to make anything she desires.” 

Thomas Weigand, Allentown, Pennsylvania

“I own five pieces from Handmade Revolution. Two things distinguish them; superb craftsmanship (easy to say, I know, but in this case true) and careful design. Whether working from historical patterns or acting as an artist, Aurora has a combination of skills, patience, and daring...yes, daring...to take on the most complex and audatious tasks. Also, she delivers on time. Pretty awesome.”

Miles Cameron, Toronto

“I own 4 pieces of Handmade Revolution. Two of them, medieval reproductions, a ring and a brooch. Two great pieces. The other two pieces are custom made. Aurora worked with my requests and ideas to create wonderful silver works of art. A ring and a miniature 5" reproduction of a medieval longsword used as a hair stick. Her workmanship is not only professional but also fine, delicate and original.”

Rachel Beauchamp, Gatineau, Quebec. 

“Aurora made absolutely stunning custom wedding rings for my husband and myself. She has vision, talent and magically manages to take your original ideas, offer some suggestions herself from her own knowledge to complement those ideas, and then creates something that takes your breath away - and all within your budget! (4 years later I still constantly receive compliments on my rings!) Aurora is wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend her services to anyone.”

Anne Smith, Toronto

“Absolutely fantastic handmade jewellery! Our ideas were taken on board for a pair of unique pieces, a design was proposed and we're both over the moon with the results. Thank you.”

Ashley Holt, UK

“Well when we finally decided to get married, after all these many years together, I had no idea what 'style' or type to buy. As you may imagine I have watched many different fashions over the years but none really spoke to me. I had received the beautiful pendant Aurora Simmons had made, so when I ran out of ideas & couldn't find anything I liked, Aurora popped in my mind.  When we met I was very unsure what I wanted, but chatting with Aurora helped me clarify what I wanted. The advantage was I was able to get exactly what I wanted &.Lens ring in a similar but not identical design.”
