I'm looking for something for MsD for Xmas, something in silver and a little 'different' to the normal jewelry chain shops, anyone have any links to online retailers?
Cheers.
Not online but if you're anywhere near Brum get yourself to the Jewlery quarter.
Elizabeth Duke?
I normally have things made in Hatton Gardens
I have also bought from these guys before for something
totally different

Have a luke about in craft markets where independent silversmiths sell their stuff; the one in Greenwich is good for such things. You can find unusual pieces that differ greatly from the 'norm', and are really unique. Often don't cost silly money either.
Tiffany's for overpriced unimaginitive silver tat, but girls still seem to love it.

The girl who designs and makes this is a friend of ours, she's very highly regarded in the fashion world and has styled some big time celebs of late! Not many people know of the jewellery side which keeps it nice and niche!
The wifes got a few pieces and a woman in goldsmiths of all places clocked her necklace the other day!
Good quality stuff as well!
I think Tiffany's can be a bit naff these days.
I like Diana Porter stuff
Google for Alex Monroe. Nice stuff.

Proper silver rock'n'roll jewelery. Lovely stuff, often copied.
