London Jewelry Tours

Looking for expert guidance whilst shopping for antique & vintage jewelry in London? 

Whether you're seeking the best shopping spots, want to gain confidence in your purchases, or simply love uncovering great deals, we've got you covered. Our custom tours are tailored to your preferences, starting with thoughtful planning based on your desires and ending with a memorable day out -- hopefully with stunning new pieces for your collection!

 

We understand the thrill and challenge of jewelry hunting. When we first began exploring London's vibrant jewellry scene, it was both exciting and overwhelming. Over the past several years, we've discovered hidden gems across the city (and beyond), built trusted connections, and learned where to find the finest treasures. Now we're thrilled to share our expertise with you!

How it works

Getting things planned will be easy. Fill out the form below, and Lindsey will reach out to help plan your perfect tour. Depending upon your preferences, we can arrange a quick call/video chat for faster planning or communicate via email works-- whatever suits you best.

Every tour is custom and private, so pricing varies based on your specific needs. Whether you're seeking a shopping buddy at Portobello Road one morning or full-service planning for an entire day or trip, we're here to accommodate. 

General Pricing Information Half day tour (4-5 hours) $275-300 depending upon travel required. Full day (8+ hours) would be $400-500. Both options include planning time to ensure the itinerary is tailored to you.  If you would like additional trip planning--such as recommendations for accommodations, restaurants, other activities, and even itinerary planning, we can create a custom package based on your preferences. You might even have a willing buddy for afternoon tea as well, we love them.

Why Choose Us? Think of your tour as an investment. By leveraging insider knowledge, vendor connections, and expertise, we can help you secure special pieces at excellent prices--potentially saving you from costly mistakes.

Payment Each tour will have two parts of payment-- a non refundable 50% deposit due in order to book dates and receive a finalized plan. Once these monies are in hand I will send through the detailed itinerary within 24 hours. The final 50% is due the day before the tour (or if paying in cash at the very beginning of the tour). If for some reason your plans get delayed/trip gets cancelled after the first downpayment, you can reschedule the second part (and if only minimal extra planning is needed), you just have to pay the final 50% on the day of the rescheduled trip.

Example Tour Itinerary: Knowledge and Shopping Day 1: Knowledge (4 hours) We'll meet at your hotel and visit a large antique jewellery store to learn about different eras, examine examples of each, and get an idea for pricing. Then after we head to the V&A to admire the jewellery exhibit while we refine your shopping strategy- or relax over a meal while discussing the day and planning the adventure ahead. ​ Day 2: Shopping (4 hours) I'll pick you up from your hotel in a car, and we'll head to a market and its trusted dealers that I know will have the pieces you are seeking. Together, we'll hunt for the perfect pieces, negotiate deals, and celebrate your finds over lunch (with my time eating/drinking off the clock).
