What reviewers say
AI generated
Most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Consumers generally find the rings unique, beautiful, and well-crafted, deeply appreciating the special custom designs and how they look in person. Many people regularly highlight that customer support is extremely helpful and responsive when addressing questions, sizing needs, or order changes.
However, some people mentioned that their orders experienced significant delivery delays, poor tracking communication, or arrived missing items entirely. Others noted that the glow stones failed to work properly, lacking duration and intensity, while products often did not match the online pictures. A few customers also reported poor durability issues, with rings cracking or breaking entirely after only limited wear.

Buyer beware, I ordered the Solar Eclipse Glowstone Ring | Tungsten and Meteorite and regrettably paid $334 when all was said and done. While the order was simple enough, their sizing process smooth (at least for me), and communication acceptable, it was the actual ring that fell tragically low on the satisfaction chart. What is depicted on their online advertisement is a far cry from what I received. The only thing “meteoric” about the ring is the disappointment I felt after having received it. I now wear it to remind myself to be more mindful when making meaningful purchases. Any time someone asks me about the ring, which has been likened to a mood ring, I take the opportunity to proclaim, buyer beware of Patrick Adair Designs!
2026 purchase review: I was skeptical with purchasing rings from PAD. But despite the bad reviews, I still wanted to buy the rings despite the bad reviews, as there were also good reviews, so I took a chance. Without a shadow of doubt, I do not regret buying these rings. I bought a simple customized ring. After the purchase, responses to my inquires were quickly addressed. Not only were they addressed, I got the ring pretty fast as well. Rings looks simple and amazing. I regret buying a simple ring, but I will buy another with a little more options. But still, I love this ring. It looks good and the lasts for a little over 10 min (but must charge with UV flashlight first). Please check out the pics for yourself, you will not be disappointed. Most importantly, do not listen to the fake negative reviews. PAD is a legit and trustworthy company with amazing products. (this is copy paste from review I made from the PAD website. For pictures, please go onto the website).
If you buy from PADesigns, expect a long disappointment
I'm writing this here because PAD is notorious for deleting negative Facebook comments that call out how this jeweler doesn't provide the products it sells.
I ordered a pendant and mystery ring on a promotion back on September 3rd. It is now February 2nd and I still don't have my order. 1) I was the one who always reached out in email to ask about my order. I never got any status updates about my order being in production and was only given a vague "material issues" excuse as to why my order was delayed the first time I inquired about my order. 2) the second time I reached out which was Jan 28, I was told my order was PARTIALLY fulfilled with the same vague excuse. 21 weeks and my order is PARTIALLY fulfilled. I didn't even have a customer order, just a pendant as is, and a mystery ring they got to choose. 3) after doing more research, I found threads of unhappy customers who mentioned delays and bad quality of their products, firing of ring artisans last year, deleting negative FB comments or reviews, listing a building address with an empty building that a local went to physically, and claims from an actual worker that since the artisan firings, the company started outsourcing their product outside the US (but the company page still claims to be US production based).
This is disappointing because they started as a legit company that I followed for 8 years and when I finally am able to buy a ring, their lack of quality and care for their customers is appalling. I will be discussing a chargeback from my bank and will get my money back.
This company is actually aweful
I placed an order no response for weeks from them I needed a change no response when I finally get ahold of them their policy is magiclly only 48 hour returns do no associate or try buying anything from them. This company is horrible
First, I never review anything unless it is highly exceptional or extremely inadequate. I ordered at the beginning of October a timascus pendant and was told mid November they were working on my order then 2 weeks later it was supply issues all while issuing new deals and promotions. Mid December came and I asked for an update again and was told they would be shipping soon. Start of the new year, supply issues again. Asked for a refund and finally got one 7 days later. Money better off well spent on Christmas or elsewhere. Products look amazing and high quality but I wouldn’t know.
Misleading Promotions, Disorganization, and Zero Integrity for a Premium Price
This was one of the most disappointing and poorly handled online purchases I've experienced. Patrick Adair Designs markets itself as a premium brand, but my experience showed a level of disorganization, misrepresentation, and customer disregard that's frankly unacceptable at their price point.
I received a promotional email from Patrick Adair Designs offering a "Free Mystery Ring (randomly selected from our site with a value of at least $200)" with any $195+ purchase. I ordered the "Lavender Star Dust" ring, expecting two rings total.
After several weeks, my order arrived containing one ring and a basic pendant currently selling for $145. A pendant is not a ring, and this immediately felt misleading. Upon closer inspection, the ring itself looked nothing like what was advertised. It contained almost no visible bello opal, while product photos and customer reviews show vibrant opal throughout. The glow effect was also extremely weak compared to their marketing images. Later, I discovered the problem went even further and they had sent me the wrong ring entirely. It seems I received a "Star Dust" ring instead of the "Lavender Star Dust" ring I ordered, which explains the lack of opal.
When I contacted support, they dismissed this as "standard variation" and claimed the "Mystery Ring" could be a pendant depending on stock, which was never disclosed in the promotion. After weeks of slow back-and-forth with them trying to deny any responsibility, they eventually agreed to accept a return but refused to provide a return shipping label, despite being required to by law since they sent a different product from what I ordered.
I ultimately filed a chargeback, which was granted and finalized about 30 days later. So, they lost over $300 because they refused to provide a $7 return shipping label to correct their own mistakes. I sold the disappointing items on eBay and donated the proceeds to charity.
For comparison, I later purchased a similar ring on Etsy for roughly one-third the price. It closely resembles what Patrick Adair advertised, and the difference in glow performance was dramatic. After charging both with a UV light, the Etsy ring glows clearly in a lit room, while the Patrick Adair ring barely glowed even in complete darkness. The Etsy ring is easily 10x brighter, making the contrast impossible to ignore.
Between the misleading promotion, the wrong product being shipped, refusal to follow basic consumer protection requirements, and overall lack of accountability, this company demonstrated a level of incompetence and indifference that no customer should have to deal with—especially at "luxury" pricing. I would strongly caution anyone considering Patrick Adair Designs to look elsewhere.
I had already purchased a new wedding band by Manley Bands, but Patrick Adair kept sending me offers. I took the "Get Surprise Band, Half Off!" promo to buy a second. Sized my ring and ordered no problem. I had no idea what they would send me, but $150 ring sounded better than $300 ring of the same quality.
I got a beautiful tungsten ring with crushed opal inlay. Good quality and fits well. The opal color changes in the light from green to pink to blue, depending on the light source. I am very happy with it.
Delivery took about six weeks. I would have thought that this would have been faster. I believe that they manufacture these in batches, and that my half-price ring was simply a slow seller I was getting at cost. But who knows.
I did deal with customer service about a wrong ring size when I ordered. They were very friendly and said that they would correct my order.
I have seen the other rings advertised and they look great, but the "moon glow" feature they push seems gimmicky. How often am I going to put my ring under a black light? But if you are looking for exotic rings, I would recommend them to others.
Sent my rings back for resizing 6 months ago and was told that they wouldn't be ready in time for my wedding despite the ring sizer being wrong from the company. I got the same size ring 2 times and the second time it doesn't fit whereas the first one still does. The quality of product I got the second time was also much worse, thinner width and cloudier. Hoping one day to receive the do-over rings, but At this point I might have to dispute with my bank...
I am extremely pleased with my recent purchase of two glow rings. It was easy to make changes to the rings before they were made, and correspondence was easy and replies were always prompt and helpful. The rings were received within a week of being sent. They are very high quality and I couldn't be happier.
When I ordered, the ad said but one get one free. When I got to the site, turns out it's but one get surprise gift free. I figured it would be worth it looking at all the pictures on the site of the different rings they offered. It said shipped, not ready to ship, not label created, but shipped. Sat wherever out was initially picked up at for 2 weeks. No customer service, no real tracking information, no updates or explanation. Finally came tonight and when I tell you I'm disappointed in this sorry excuse of jewelry, that's only because I won't use the language that actually came out of my mouth. The only is literally a SIXTEENTH of an inch wide, the whole width of the ring is an eighth inch. The inlet was supposed to have 2 or 3 components, it looks like crushed aquarium rich (that blue green stuff in the bottom of the aquarium) in clear enamel. This is NOT a 255 dollar piece of jewelry and I don't even want to insult the woman I bought it for by giving it to her but I'll leave its fate in her hands. They offer no preview, no explanation, no customer service, and incredibly underwhelming jewelry. Oh, and the surprise gift? A quarter inch by quarter inch by not quite one and a quarter inch ugly unfinished piece of metal on a generic, flimsy black chain.
I have bought a fewcrings from Patrick Adair designs, and have not been disappointed by any of them I especially like the custom boundless rings that they have made for me, I was a little worried the first time I ordered because it seemed a long time for delivery, but as they are made to order I shouldn't of been I cant fault them
I received 2 rings today. While I had high hopes for these based on other reviewers, sadly both of them are quite hideous. They did not insert emerald in the rings as requested and overloaded it with tiger's eye. These were supposed to be Christmas gifts that now I'm really unsure of. The pendant that arrived won't be a gift either. It feels really cheap and not like the quality of the rings. I've contacted their customer support about returning them. We'll see how this plays out when they respond.
Bombarded by marketing content I bit the bullet and ordered two rings on a ‘special offer’ two for the price of one a number of weeks ago. Chased my order regularly and eventually got a response and said order arrived this week. The ring I paid for is ok, reasonable quality. However the second ring was not included in the shipment. I then received an email, post delivery, saying it was out of stock and offering something completely different, which I declined and requested an another ring. I’ve since had radio silence from them despite numerous emails.
Feelings completely ripped off and will not be ordering again.
It was a two for one deal, that’s a great experience in itself. The two rings I ordered were exactly what I wanted. Shipping was fast and they kept you updated as to where the package was. The only thing that wasn’t good was the package was damaged, but the merchandise was fine. Love my rings, they look great and I love how they glow! I definitely recommend this company, cheers! Kevin
I ordered the lavender star dust ring, not really caring about the glow, but loving the lavender opal inlay full of beautiful blue coloring. On the website, it's loaded with vivid color and you could not hope to count the blue spots. The ring I received is dull, bland, and has four miniscule specks of blue in the entire inlay. Do not purchase from this company. They are a complete scam. They'll tell you that's a "very slight variation," but what I received is not even close to the advertised product. Buyer beware.
It took forever to get the rings which was the first clue. These were made in China. Tungsten which wasn’t. I have 2 rings that are tungsten. One can tell by the weight of a tungsten ring. The other has no weight at all. That was my surprise ring. Attempted to contact customer service several times with a response “we are having longer than expected response times due to unusually high volume”. $200 down the drain. Buyers Beware!
Paid into the infamous Kickstarter campaign debacle P.A.D. was involved with. Never got the ring or pendant. They refused to refund my money. Customer service does not give a fat rats ass. At that point I took my other rings I had purchased from P.A.D. and tossed them in the junk drawer. Too many other artists available who have far better customer service values.
