"We love Frida! My fiancé worked with Carrie to create my exquisite engagement ring - her combined expertise and innovation resulted in a beautiful ring that is completely original, unique, and will last a lifetime. We didn’t hesitate in returning to her for assistance with our wedding bands - her congeniality, complete professionalism, and desire for perfection made each experience easy and exciting. Carrie’s attention to detail and passion for fine jewelry is evident in her work. She listened to and incorporated our ideas, guiding us with her wonderful knowledge and suggestions. Together we created something that represents both our individual personalities and our relationship. We will always look at our rings and be grateful!"

"I said yes! There are no words to describe how happy and grateful I am! Every day I am thankful for everything I have, my husband Marc (that had this ring custom made), my baby boy, family, friends and everyone that helps me be the person I am today! My engagement ring was inspired by my grandmother’s earrings and made by FRIDA. It’s absolutely perfect and stunning!"

"Carrie Lamb receives our highest recommendation!!! We have purchased a number of spectacular pieces of custom jewelry from Carrie over the years. Each treasured piece has received numerous compliments from friends and strangers alike not only for their beauty but also for their one of a kind artistry. Carrie’s designs are exquisitely unique and are personalized to fit every special occasion. Her holistic approach to understanding her clients’ personality and vision is a key strength of the services she successfully provides. She gets it right every time.If you’ve never experienced Carrie’s personalized service - which is to be treated not as a client but as a friend who has entered into her realm of beauty and creativity - you should experience the pleasure of visiting Frida Fine Jewelry. You will never be disappointed!!! And if you are lucky enough to own a piece of Carrie’s work, you will know the pleasure of wearing her fine art."

"For those who have no idea what they are doing when it comes to buying an engagement ring, go to Frida and talk to Carrie. She is the best! She walked me through every step of the process, giving unbiased advice when picking out an engagement ring for my fiancée. She was quick and kept me informed every step of the way. We didn’t hesitate to go back for a wedding band and once again Carrie was amazing. She actually cares! The rings came out better than expected! Thanks Carrie!!"

"When shopping for an engagement ring, I knew that I wanted to be part of the design process. I had some inspiration photos that I was hoping I could use to build my dream ring. I loved the idea of purchasing a ring from a woman-owned, local business, which led me to reach out to Carrie at Frida. I am so grateful I did, as working with Carrie was the most memorable, special experience. She is professional, warm, and genuine, which made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. I had a number of ideas, and Carrie thoughtfully presented different options to consider. When we arrived to see the lab-grown diamond Carrie had brought in for my ring, I couldn’t take my eye off of this natural white sapphire on the bench next to us. It felt like fate, and I ended up completely changing course for my ring. Carrie’s process allowed me to express myself with the design, and she provided invaluable guidance to ensure a top quality piece of jewelry. We couldn’t be happier with the final product, and for our amazing experience designing a ring with Carrie. I’m so lucky and proud to wear a piece from Frida Fine!"

"Carrie designs fabulous jewelry. Her vision is unique. It is both extravagant and elegant, using precious metals and gorgeous gems to create one of a kind pieces. It makes me happy just to see her fabulous creations. Her shop is a miracle in a small place like Halifax! She creates true beauty."

"My experience from start to finish with FRIDA was incredible! As a man, I was understandably nervous about making sure I got the right ring for my now Fiancé, Carrie made all of those nerves go away within 5 minutes of the first visit! The ring was absolutely stunning and creating it with her was a really fun experience. Carrie's taught me so many things I had no idea about which also reassured me about the decisions I made. Safe to say, after carrying the ring through Central and South America for 7 months. She said YES! Thank you Carrie, can't wait to be back for some wedding bands!"

"Carrie was great, she worked with us to get exactly what we wanted for our wedding bands. Her suggestions guided us along and she was extremely patient as we made our decisions. My fiancé was able to get a ring designed to perfectly match the engagement ring (which was purchased outside the country."

"I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Frida Jewellery! My fiancé worked with Carrie to create my engagement ring as a bespoke piece and it is perfect! We also worked with Carrie to create his wedding band as a bespoke piece and we could not be happier with the outcome! Every step of the way we were met with expert advice, recommendations and superb customer service! We will definitely be coming back for all of our jewellery needs!"

"We don’t know whether we should call Carrie the Queen of Hearts or the Ace of Diamonds, because she has been both for us!"

"I want to share my recent experience with Carrie and her lovely daughter Emma. My husband passed recently and I was emotional and a bit tentative when I decided it was the right time for me to remove my wedding rings from my left hand. The only thing I was certain about was that Carrie was the only person I wanted to be the designer of the pieces of jewelry that would help me in this emotional period of both grief and growth. When I messaged Carrie, who had known my husband and he had been a client, about my desire she immediately responded with the compassion and guidance I very much needed.

The result is a beautiful pink sapphire ring for my left hand, replacing my wedding rings. The pink sapphire represents so much that is perfectly symbolic for me and I wear it as a symbol of my relationship with myself. The beautiful setting she designed is comfortable to wear everyday and sapphire color is stunning. Carrie also took my diamond from my solitaire engagement ring and designed a new setting for it. She had my stone placed, along with other diamonds, in the most beautiful setting I have ever seen. This ring I now wear on my right hand to represent my family; the family my late husband and I created together.

I cannot say enough about how healing it has been working with Carrie and the resulting pieces bring me comfort and strength everyday!I absolutely recommend Frida’s for the most thoughtful, beautiful piece of jewellery to reflect you and the jewellery’s intended meaning with 100% confidence. You will love the experience and outcome of working with Carrie."

"Sometimes, material possessions are more than just that. After the loss of my family members, I wanted to take part of my inheritance to create three pieces of jewelry that I could pass on in their memory. I am fortunate to know Carrie Lamb, not only as a reputable jeweller, but someone who through this process has become a valued friend. Together, we created three outstanding pieces of jewellery that have touched me greatly, and I am honoured to pass these on to three people who will continue to understand and appreciate what they have meant to me. I just recently made a forth purchase.

Life’s journey can at times be difficult, as we all know. I am no exception to this, as this year has taken me to a new beginning. To celebrate, I have chosen a ring that Carrie designed with me in mind, as she understands my journey. It is part of her SHIELD™ Collection, which represents the understanding of women of any age the importance of remaining empowered and knowing our authentic selves. Can a simple piece of jewellery accomplish this? My answer is yes, as I look at my ring and remember the courage it took to finally arrive here."

“I would have given them 10 stars if it were possible. I have ordered diamond earrings with Carrie (FRIDA owner) and they are exquisite. I live in Ottawa, so everything was done over the phone with her. I had an amazing service, and she custom designed the piece with me over phone and emails, wonderful communication. Also, delivered over night to my door. I will for sure go see her for some more wonderful jewellery as soon as I can travel safely again (pandemic over).”

“I have been to many jewellery stores and museums around the world. Your design and quality of stones are one of the most unique I have ever seen. I wish you the best of luck.”

“I could not have asked for better service. I came to FRIDA’s with several ideas about what I wanted in an engagement ring, and Carrie was able to build on them and created something exquisite. Even during a crisis like COVID-19, FRIDA's delivered with enthusiasm and professionalism. You won’t be disappointed.”

“I am a collector and lover of art and jewellery. Carrie Lamb’s work is both. She has an amazing talent which I have not seen in the many countries I travel. When I discovered her shop in Halifax I was blown away by the quality and magnificent designs, not to mention the variety of unheated spectacular gem stones. Her designs are show stoppers!”

“We are an average couple with average incomes, and like most average people, we have big dreams and our dream was to have unique custom made wedding bands. Thankfully, our dream was bigger than our trepidation as we entered FRIDA, fully prepared to be turned away. From the minute we met Carrie, our hearts loved her. She made us feel like we were as important to her as any millionaire client. We will never forget what Carrie has given to us; not just gorgeous meaningful rings, but a very special experience that we will carry in our hearts forever.”

"Working with Carrie is a dream. She just finished a beautiful diamond bracelet which is unique, suitably sparkly, and just 'wow'. Carrie listened to what I dreamed a bracelet could be, and more than delivered. I've found so many of my favourites at FRIDA Fine Jewellery. Visit the store to find that special piece, or ask Carrie to design something just for you!”

"I'm a long time customer and fan of Frida Fine Jewellery and its owner, designer, and founder Carrie Lamb. The collection of timeless, beautiful pieces I have acquired from Carrie over the years will certainly be passed down to my children and grandchildren. Frida Fine Jewellery is sophisticated, elegant, and meticulously crafted. It is above and beyond any other jewelers in terms of quality, style, and service. I highly recommend Carrie's exclusive collection and custom designs. You can confidently shop in person or online. You'll be dazzled by this incredible place! Carrie is knowledgeable, experienced, and perceptive. She has fantastic vision and creativity and will help you find (or design!) the perfect, special piece you're looking for."

"I was on a mission in Halifax. I wanted to say "hello" to the creator of my friend's gorgeous new ring and check out the depth and range of her creations. I knew her shop was across the square from the Bicycle Thief Restaurant but had forgotten the name...One storefront had shelves of spectacular jewelry "FRIDA" was the name. I headed in and introduced myself to a tall, elegant woman Carrie Lamb who was delighted to receive greetings from one of her collectors and fans and proceeded to introduce me to some of her own favourite pieces...Fascinating!! Each ring has a name a story of significance. One could spend hours listening and admiring. I had to depart sooner than I wished but asked that I be added to her mailing list...Make this a stop in Halifax.”

"Carrie helped me design an engagement ring from scratch. Carrie gave me the opportunity to pick out the gem, and have the ring crafted around it. This was an intimate, and personalized experience that I don't think I could have gotten at any other jeweller. Carrie is extremely considerate, patient, and was dedicated each step along the way. I'm looking for an excuse to buy another piece of beautiful jewelry from Frida Jewellery."

"I went into FRIDA with limited knowledge, never having bought a piece of jewelry, let alone an engagement ring, before. Carrie did not make me feel like I was pressured to buy from her establishment but simply gave me some pointers, told me a little about diamonds, and that she could customize a ring for me, based on my price range and what I wanted. After a couple of weeks of research, it was evident that FRIDA has the highest quality of diamonds of all jewelry stores around. I went back, we discussed and found a ring that I liked and when it was out of my price range, Carrie told me to give her some time and she would see what she could do. Carrie sent me an e-mail, advising that she brought in a slightly smaller diamond (40pt) advised she could make a ring similar to the one we were looking at, and now, it was within my price range. Carrie is one of the most accommodating, most friendly, and most inviting people I have ever met and I wont hesitate to go back to her for any future pieces either I, or my new fiancee, may need. I have truly made a new friend in this process. Thank you Carrie.”

“What an exquisite experience it was to meet Carrie. I loved everything in the shop and couldn’t bear to leave without purchasing something. \[...\] I selected and can't wait to visit again!”

"We started our journey to find a commitment ring to specifically represent our relationship in all the traditional places, from the biggest cities in Canada to the U.S. and Vegas. With each subsequent visit to these designer retail stores we felt more discouraged and we didn’t know why. Then we heard about a store in Halifax Nova Scotia called FRIDA Fine Jewelry, a place that had to be experienced. When we walked into the boutique, we were surrounded by the most unusual and unique jewellery we had ever seen. Gem stones of such unusual colour and character, alongside diamonds in such a variety of cuts and brilliance. We were stunned. The artistic genius that created the settings and the metal work was pure inspiration. And standing behind this exquisite collection was Carrie Lamb. Carrie is a warm, welcoming, beautiful person, wonderfully dressed and bejewelled. We were immediately taken by her calm reassurances, her depth of experience and knowledge, her openness, and her perceptiveness. She needed to hear our story in order to find inspiration to create our ring. Carrie’s quest was to first match a stone to who we were and what we wanted to tell the world about us. She found us a natural, untreated, pear shaped sapphire. It was so blue with such depth. A beautiful drop of water. With Carrie, first we experienced relief, then gratitude and finally trust. Not only had we found the right stone we had found the person who was going to guide us to a world outside the box. We drew inspiration from Carrie and her Shield collection. She took our ideas, our stories, our heart and made them real. Now we have our ring, it has a story and it tells our story.

For this journey Carrie was our mentor, protector, and now our friend. We will never look at jewellery the same way again. We can’t wait for our next creative journey with Carrie."
