A brief history of Hatton Garden

Hatton Garden takes its name from Sir Christopher Hatton, who was a politician in the 16th century. In 1581, Hatton was given Ely Place by Elizabeth I, the former residence of the Bishop of Ely. The garden of the property was given the name ‘Hatton Garden’ and the area has been historically associated with the jewellery industry.

During the 19th century, Hatton Garden became a worldwide leader in jewellery and diamond production, encouraging businesses to open up in this part of London. The growth of Hatton Garden’s jewellery industry was down to the East India Company as it imported most of the world’s diamonds for jewellery businesses to design, manufacture and sell jewellery.

By the end of the 19th century, the De Beers company was created and had a monopoly on the world’s diamond mines. Once De Beers merged with the London Diamond Syndicate, jewellery businesses in the area had easy access to their entire supply of diamonds.

While this part of Central London has gained notoriety, due to the Hatton Garden Heist, it still remains a global destination for jewellery production. There are close to 300 businesses operating in the area, making it the largest jewellery quarter in the UK. 

Buying Jewellery in Hatton Garden

It’s a special moment to buy jewellery in Hatton Garden. While many tourists visit this world-famous site, there’s also a hubbub of excitement for those looking for magical pieces of jewellery for their special occasion.

If you’re serious about buying jewellery from Hatton Garden Jewellers, you should abide by the following tips.

1.All prices are competitive

High street jewellers are known for the fixed prices that they sell their pieces for. However, with Hatton Garden jewellers you could pay around half the amount you would pay on the high street. This is because independent jewellers are privately owned and avoid flashy advertising, brand premiums and the expensive rents charged across London. There’s nowhere else in London where you’ll find competitive prices on the finest jewellery.

2.Remember the 4cs

When buying any diamond jewellery, we always recommend that you remember the 4Cs - Cut Colour, Clarity & Carat. Each element of the 4Cs determines how much your diamond will cost. With this in mind, it will help you pick a piece worthy of your special someone.

3.Remember what is meant by Cut and Shape

It’s not unusual for people to be confused about what we mean by diamond cuts and shapes. When assessing the cut, this is in relation to how well the diamond has been shaped and crafted. How well your diamond is made will determine how much you will pay for your ring. By understanding this, it will help you get the best deal.

4.Consider Bespoke Jewellery

Hatton Garden is the home of the finest bespoke jewellery. With competitive prices on offer, you can buy a truly unique diamond ring for your loved one, which you would be unlikely to get on the high street.
