David Morris

David Morris has been making high jewellery in London since 1962, when its founder opened his first workshop in Hatton Garden. The family-run house built its early reputation through rare stones, hand-making and two consecutive De Beers Diamonds International Awards. This selection is all about the house language in miniature: diamond-heavy rings, earrings, cuffs and necklaces with a distinctly British sense of drama.

Rings from a London high-jewellery house

David Morris began as a Hatton Garden apprentice before establishing his eponymous house in 1962. The products below give that idea a practical shape, with a mix that keeps the category specific and the styling open-ended.

Diamond earrings, without the fuss

The house won De Beers Diamonds International Awards in 1963 and 1964, an early sign of its technical ambition. The products below give that idea a practical shape, with a mix that keeps the category specific and the styling open-ended.

Necklaces with serious presence

Its London workshops remain central to the family-run business, now led by Jeremy Morris. The products below give that idea a practical shape, with a mix that keeps the category specific and the styling open-ended.

Cuffs and bangles, properly bold

Our honest take

The appeal here is specificity: these are not anonymous luxury objects or generic wardrobe fillers. Pick the category that already fits how you dress, then let one strong piece do the work rather than building a full costume around it. If you take one thing away, choose the item you would still wear on an ordinary day, because that is where the design earns its keep.
