Where to buy an engagement ring in London?

Easy! From Quality Diamonds in Hatton Garden, of course!

London’s Hatton Garden area has been associated with the jewellery trade for centuries and is regarded as one of the finest jewellery locations in the world. It has a high concentration of over a thousand jewellers, craftspeople and designers with a depth and breadth of diamond expertise that’s hard to find anywhere else. Despite its prestigious status, Hatton Garden offers excellent value for money compared to high street retailers, with many pieces sold at wholesale prices.

In the late 1800's, Hatton Garden's global status as a leading place for diamonds and gemstones was cemented by The De Beers Mine (now known as the Kimberley Mine). Discovered in 1871, De Beers was the most productive diamond mine in the world, and its discovery and subsequent exploitation gave Hatton Garden's reputation a significant boost. However, there was an even larger catalyst in the pipeline that would propel Hatton Garden as an industry leader in the diamond and gemstone industries.

'De Beers Consolidated Mines Limited' (now known as De Beers) was formed in 1888 after competitors Cecil Rhodes (on behalf of De Beers) and the London Diamond Syndicate (created by ten jewellers in Hatton Garden) merged their businesses. Hatton Garden secured its status as a global name in the diamond and gemstone industry two years later. This deal meant that Hatton Garden could utilize De Beers' monopolization of the diamond industry, allowing them to buy De Beers' entire supply of diamonds at a fixed price. This is why Hatton Garden in London is home to some of the world's finest jewellers.

With its rich history and concentration of skilled professionals, Hatton Garden continues to thrive as a hub for diamond and gemstone production. Its long-standing association with the jewellery trade and the expertise of its jewellers, craftspeople, and designers make it an unrivalled destination for those seeking high-quality jewellery. Additionally, the value for money offered by Hatton Garden sets it apart from traditional high street retailers, as many pieces are available at wholesale prices. This unique combination of heritage, expertise, and affordability solidifies Hatton Garden's reputation as a global leader in the diamond and gemstone industry.
