Founder Rebecca Smith designing luxury jewellery

About Rebecca's luxury jewelry design inspiration

Rebecca Smith draws much of her inspiration from the natural world, be it the unprocessed, raw beauty of gemstones, the organic contours of the Sussex landscape, or the gradual, natural erosion witnessed along the chalky cliffs of the Seven Sisters on the Sussex shore.

As a world-renowned luxury jewelry designer, you can be sure to find designs unseen anywhere else, created by some of the top goldsmiths in the UK. Every piece is handmade in our workshop, never mass-manufactured.

Handmade

Our goldsmiths are artisans of their craft, making each piece by hand, ensuring the utmost quality and care in every design.

Sustainable

At the forefront of eco-conscious luxury jewelry, we exclusively use recycled metals. Plus, our remodelling service breathes new life into cherished pieces, making sustainability a stylish statement.

Guarantee

Your trust is paramount. That's why we offer a guarantee of up to 20 years. Beyond this, we're committed to refining and adjusting any bespoke piece until you love it.

Bespoke jewelers with a unique touch

Over the course of 35 years, our journey began as accomplished silversmiths, crafting chalices and renowned silverware that gathered recognition throughout the UK. Evolving into goldsmiths, Rebecca Smith and Anton Pruden transitioned seamlessly into the world of jewelry, earning a notable reputation as bespoke jewelers in Sussex, just north of Brighton.

Today, Simon Alexander, our Head Goldsmith, stands as an indispensable member of the Pruden and Smith team, skillfully working with Rebecca, our Creative Director, to bring her artistic jewelry designs to life. This new collaboration not only enables us to create our unique handmade jewelry but also opens up extensive customisation possibilities, unmatched by any machine-made item.

Over the years, our unusual handmade jewelry has transcended borders with people visiting us from America to explore our gallery, discover our latest designs, or commission a bespoke ring, pendant or necklace in the Pruden and Smith style. Raw, natural, unique – we're bespoke jewelers with a unique and unusual touch.
