David Morris Jewellery: London High Jewellery Since 1962

David Morris jewellery has been made in London since 1962, when the founder opened his first workshop in Hatton Garden. I go through the house's rings, earrings, necklaces and cuffs, from Frozen Kiss to Triolette.

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.

David Morris 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.

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.
