Contemporary Jewellers
Aurum are British jewellery designers and contemporary jewellers based in
the Southeast, near Brighton, in Worthing, West Sussex,
UK, offering luxury contemporary jewellery, contemporary engagement rings and handmade wedding rings
in addition to bespoke jewellery of all kinds, in platinum, gold and diamonds.
We specialise in luxury contemporary engagement rings and handmade wedding rings, which
are created by our own British jewellery designers and craftsmen in West Sussex. Aurum
designer jewellers and goldsmiths create unique contemporary jewellery in
platinum, gold, palladium and diamonds. Unlike most contemporary jewellers, we
employ no sales staff, so clients deal direct with our jewellery designers,
who can offer expert advice, and guide them through the design process. Our
contemporary jewellers produce individually designed handmade jewellery and
bespoke jewellery. Aurum designer jewellers was established in 1985 by jewellery designer Andrew
Leggett, who trained with top London jewellers, and has an enviable reputation
for producing fine quality contemporary jewellery. We supply certificated
diamonds, or certified diamonds, of all sizes and shapes, which can be mounted in unique jewellery to individual requirements.
Contemporary
Engagement Rings
Aurum
designer jewellers are known for contemporary engagement rings, which are
individually designed by our own in-house jewellery designers and goldsmiths.
Bespoke engagement rings form a large part of our business. Each ring is
handmade from scratch, taking into account the customer’s individual
requirements and budget. Handmade engagement rings in platinum with diamonds are
most popular but we also work in gold and palladium, and can source gemstones of
all kinds as required by our clients. Our signature style contemporary engagement ring
is the Flick ring, designed by Andrew Leggett, with one flat edge, to sit
perfectly with a straight wedding band. The stone is consequently pushed down
the finger, and one shoulder flicks down to meet it; hence the name the Flick
ring.
Contemporary jewellery
Aurum's British jewellery designers produce contemporary jewellery of all kinds, including eternity
rings, which are often designed the match the client’s engagement ring or
wedding ring. Other rings such as dress rings and signet rings are also made to
commission. Our jewellery designers create all sorts of bespoke contemporary jewellery,
including pendants,
earrings, bracelets and body jewellery. We also make
men’s jewellery, such as cufflinks and tie pins.
We also undertake jewellery remodelling.
Clients bring us their old jewellery to be broken up and turned into new
pieces of contemporary jewellery. This often involves taking a large item and
remodelling in into several smaller more wearable pieces of jewellery, and
sometimes means taking a lot of small pieces of worn out or broken jewellery and
combining it to produce a more significant piece of modern jewellery.
Handmade wedding rings
Handmade wedding rings have always been a large part of our work. We
keep in stock a large range of contemporary wedding rings, designed and made in
our workshop. Clients can choose a design from stock, but most opt for bespoke
wedding rings, individually designed and handmade to order by our skilled
goldsmiths. We produce women's and men's wedding rings in platinum, red gold and yellow gold, and
increasingly in palladium, which is a less costly alternative to platinum.
Matching wedding rings for bride and groom are normally made in different
proportions, to suit the hand. Many
brides ask us to create a wedding ring specifically to match their own
engagement ring. Fitted wedding rings are popular because they are shaped
around the engagement ring, eliminating gaps between the two rings, which looks
more elegant, and also reduces excessive wear. Diamond-set wedding rings are
popular with both men and women, sometimes with just one or two discretely
placed diamonds, whilst others can be smothered with diamonds, depending on the
taste and the budget of the individual client. We are a gay-friendly jewellers
and produce many gay wedding rings or commitment rings for gay and lesbian
clients. Our handmade
wedding rings can be seen at Wedding Fairs across West Sussex and the Southeast.
