London Jewellery Week 8-14 June 2009


The 48 hour tube strike is currently on, but anyone interested in attending the Coutts London Jewellery Week, which I've only just heard about, should be able to make it towards the end of the week, and you can download a programme from the website. The Festival in Hatton Garden sounds promising, which runs from Thurs 11th to Sat 13th June. Many workshops in the area will be open to the public, and on Saturday there is a street party with jewellery making demonstrations in the street, plus jewellery themed walks and talks, musicians, food market, childrens workshops etc.

Jewellery will be on display at Platform, the new exhibition space in Greville Street, and will run the full gamut of the industry's illustrious history from The Cheapside Hoard - an astonishing collection of Elizabethan and Jacobean jewellery discovered by chance during the early 20th century - to the laatest contemporary designs from today's hottest new talent. (Nearest tubes: Farringdon or Chancery Lane).
