The Jewellery Quarter is renowned for its creativity and independent makers. Whether it’s diamond setters and jewellery designers, or needleworkers and book printers, the Quarter is bursting with talent and bespoke products.

Many of the businesses occupying the nooks and crannies of the historic properties are micro-businesses, often operated by a handful of staff or even just one person. These brave entrepreneurs take the greatest risk in setting up a new business and are now arguably the hardest hit by the impact of COVID-19.

It is still possible to support our local Jewellery Quarter makers by commissioning pieces online or ordering directly from an online shop such as Etsy. This international marketplace for individual makers specializes in unique and customized products by talented individuals up and down the country.
