Spring Jewellery Inspiration with Justin Richardson
We catch up with Justin Richardson Bespoke Jewellery, based in Canterbury, to find out the latest news from the craftsmen of unique custom-made jewellery.
The days are getting longer and warmer – summer is around the corner, but we do still have many wonderful spring days to look forward to. And spring is such an inspirational season for jewellery design. Colours, flora and fauna are everywhere and Justin Richardson's team's earlier trip to Inhorgenta, Munich created many more ideas. From faceted and carved pearls to pretty Agates and Topaz stones they have such beautiful designs in mind for new jewellery this summer.
After the success of their valuation day in February, they are pleased to announce that they will once again be offering free consultations, verbal valuations and a complimentary cleaning service on Thursday 29th May 2025. Booking slots are for an hour on the hour from 10am to 6pm, so be sure to book in as soon as you can to avoid disappointment. They do ask for a maximum of two or three pieces – only due to the time constraints on the day.
It is usually advisable to have your insurance values reviewed every two years or so, but with the steady increasing cost of gold at the moment, they say it is advisable to have your jewellery evaluated a little more frequently. They look forward to welcoming you.
Following on from Justin Richardson's award-winning experience at the Goldsmiths Craft & Design Council awards at Goldsmiths Hall, they are happy to say that they will be exhibiting at the GC&DC Summer Awards Exhibition at the Goldsmiths’ Centre in London running from 3rd July to 12th September 2025 where their award-winning watches will be on display.
And with the Goldsmiths Fair in October, they are beavering away in the workshop working on some new collections and a brand-new addition to the Pebble Watch Collection coming soon – could it be another award winner?! If you are interested in visiting the exhibition in October, they do have a small number of VIP tickets on a first come first served basis, so please let them know if you wish to go.

If you have an idea for a special piece of jewellery, either as a gift or a treat, they say to please go along and have a chat. They are happy to discuss design and manufacture – perhaps you have some old pieces of jewellery you do not wear anymore; or pieces that need a bit of a refresh. They can create sketches and paintings to help your ideas come to life, can source some amazing gemstones and are more than happy to help. Here is what some of their clients have recently said:
“Beautiful contemporary designs, expert and trusted advice, professional cleaning and repairs.”
“The bracelet is beyond what I had hoped for, the work your team put into the design and craftmanship in putting it all together are truly a thing of beauty. Your team looked after me amazingly and were very respectful of my situation and reason for having the commission done.”
“My 2 rings were repaired beautifully and in a very prompt manner, it always pays to go to an expert, and I am very happy with the service that I was given.”
“The team at Justin Richardson were very helpful when designing a bespoke engagement ring. An eye for style – which I appreciated. I liked that there was no use of computer modelling, sketches gave a much better, more human understanding of the aesthetics of rings.”
