2007 marked the inception of Bristol Costume Jewellery, a platform dedicated to illuminating the rich heritage and diverse collections of Bristol’s renowned costume jewellery scene. As we celebrate our milestones and significant achievements over the years, our journey has been nothing short of a gemstone’s reflection of light, revealing layers of history and style that adorn the city’s cultural tapestry.
Our purpose is to serve as the premier destination for enthusiasts and collectors alike, providing comprehensive and accurate information on Bristol costume jewellery. We are committed to bridging the information gap that exists on the internet regarding this niche category of accessories. Our mission is to educate, inspire, and connect a global audience with the artistry and history embedded in each piece of Bristol’s costume jewellery.
The founding story of Bristol Costume Jewellery began with a simple yet profound realization: the wealth of knowledge and appreciation for Bristol’s costume jewellery was not adequately represented online.
