About Us

Established in 1988, Nicholson's Jewellers is a jewellery boutique specialising in antique jewellery with a particular emphasis on vintage engagement rings.  Nicholson's is owned by Cliff and Elaine, a husband-and-wife team with an incomparable expertise in fine antique diamond jewellery. Cliff is a Fellow of the Gemological Association of Great Britain and, unusually in the retail jewellery profession, also has a good grounding in jewellery repair processes.

With a natural talent for design (Cliff's other career choice was architecture), and from a family of writers, musicians, artists and film makers, his artistic flair has been put to very good use in the many bespoke designs that have been created in our on-site workshop.
