Hatton Garden Jewellers: What to expect in London’s jewellery hub

 

Purchasing jewellery is a wonderful experience. Whether buying for yourself or a loved one, it is very important that you feel comfortable in your decision, given both the sentimental and monetary value of the piece. Hatton Garden jewellers have always shared a rich history in the jewellery and diamond trade, instantly recognisable by UK residents as well as those from abroad.

 

Spoilt for choice

Your first impressions of Hatton Garden may come as quite a surprise, with a line of 55 jewellery shops occupying the road. Given the vast choice available to you, it is highly recommended to first view the various shop windows to build up a profile as to your likes and dislikes. Once ready, pop into a shop to try on a ring that may have caught your eye! Alternatively, if you cannot make your way down to Hatton Garden easily, many of the more established brands will have their own website that allow you to browse their catalogue.

 

The 4Cs

Although often viewed as a daunting task, the purchase of diamond jewellery is an incredibly educational pursuit, where you will learn of the characteristics that define a valuable crystal. By following the 4Cs framework, consisting of carat, colour, clarity and cut, an expert knowledge is far from necessary in making an informed and fitting decision. Although the integrity of diamond jewellery and its characteristics is of paramount importance, we often advise customers not to overlook the significance of taste and style as key drivers too – after all, this is likely to be a piece of jewellery that is worn for the rest of your life.

 

Take your time

Whether you have bought from Hatton Garden jewellers before or not, purchasing any type of fine jewellery is a big decision. Do the emerald or the sapphire earrings look better on you? Are you unsure as to whether to opt for a princess or round cut engagement ring? Is that wedding ring a little bit too contemporary for your tastes? Our advice – take your time and work your way through the process until you feel ready to commit to the ‘right’ piece.

 

Rennie & Co is open seven days a week, giving you the perfect excuse to pop in for a one-to-one consultation! Whether you have just started to look, or are in the more advanced stages, our friendly and expert staff will assist you throughout. Our opening times can be found here.
