Goldsmiths and silversmiths are the hands behind fine jewellery, working precious metal to make, repair and restore pieces across the UK. The workshops listed here cover everything from setting a diamond to raising a silver bowl, and many combine traditional bench skills with modern tools such as laser welding and CAD.
The Difference Between the Trades
A goldsmith works chiefly in gold and platinum, often on rings and fine jewellery, while a silversmith leans towards larger silverware such as tableware, trophies and decorative pieces. In practice many bench jewellers train across both, which is why you will find makers here who move comfortably between a wedding band and a christening cup. Hallmarking at a UK assay office confirms the metal on any piece they produce.
Finding the Right Workshop
Whether you need a one-off commission, a repair or a restoration, look for a smith whose past work matches the job in hand. Many also take on remodelling, engraving and stone setting, and most are happy to talk through options before you commit. Booking a visit or sending photographs of a damaged piece is usually the quickest way to get an honest quote.
