About Aurum


Aurum designer-jewellers design and make unique pieces of jewellery to individual customer requirements.

Aurum Designer Jewellers Worthing Sussex

Aurum designer-jewellers was established in 1985 by Sussex-based jewellery designer and goldsmith Andrew Leggett, to showcase his unique handmade jewellery.

Before starting Aurum, Andrew had spent ten years working in top jewellery workshops in London.


Andrew had entered the jewellery trade straight from school, when a summer holiday job at a local jewellery manufacturer caused him to rethink his career plans.


In 1975 he began training as a diamond-mounter with iconic British jewellery designer John Donald, and went on to work with top West End designer Geoffrey Turk.


After 10 years of commuting to London, Andrew set up Aurum in his home town of Worthing.


Bespoke jewellery has always been the main focus of the business.


Our jewellery is assayed and hallmarked at the London Assay Office.

A lifetime in spent in jewellery


This is Andrew back in 1980, in the West-End workshop of Geoffrey Turk.


Here he made one-off contemporary jewellery for Geoffrey's collection, alongside classic jewellery for many top Bond-Street jewellers.


It was another five years before he set up Aurum.  Even after forty-eight years at the bench, he still loves designing and making jewellery.

Jewellers workshop

Free design consultation

Unlike the majority of jewellery shops, Aurum has no sales staff.


If you look in through our shop window, and don’t see anyone, it doesn’t mean we are closed!


We are all working jewellers, so unless there is a customer in the shop, we are usually upstairs in the workshop, busily designing and making jewellery!


Just ring the doorbell and someone will come down to let you in.  - Usually, it will be the goldsmith who has the cleanest hands at the time!


As specialist bespoke jewellers and diamond-mounters, we love working with clients to turn their ideas into beautiful items of jewellery.


If you have a project in mind, we'd be delighted to talk to you about it, and you are welcome to book a free design consultation at our showroom.

Custom-made jewellery specialists

We always have a selection of our handmade jewellery in stock....


and these pieces are for sale, but their main purpose is to provide inspiration for customers.

- We really do specialise in creating unique items jewellery to individual requirements.


Aurum is mainly known for bespoke engagement rings and wedding rings, which make up a large proportion of our work. We also make many eternity rings for clients who might be celebrating a special wedding anniversary, or perhaps the birth of a child.


However, you don't need to have a reason to commission a piece of jewellery - you might just feel like treating yourself!
