A taste of the district
Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter is Britain's workshop — Europe's largest cluster of jewellery businesses, making around 40% of everything produced in the UK and hallmarking it under the city's own Anchor mark. Where other districts trade and sell, the Quarter makes and strikes: gold and silver worked at the bench, then sent to the Assay Office to be tested. These are the pieces that trade is built on, sourced on Amazon so a taste of the workshop can travel home.

Band
10K–14K gold
A plain band of hallmarked gold — the simplest thing the Quarter makes and the Assay Office strikes, the piece that best shows the Anchor mark.
Pendant
14K gold
A minimalist solid-gold disc on a chain — the understated goldsmith output the Quarter turns out beside its bands and signets.
Hoops
14K gold
Classic solid-gold hoops — small, made-in-volume goldwork of the kind the Quarter's 700-odd makers have long supplied to the whole UK trade.
Ring
14K gold
The engraved seal ring is a Quarter staple — a solid piece of worked gold, the kind of goldsmith's and engraver's work the district's benches have turned out for two centuries.
Pendant
Sterling silver · CZ
A fine sterling-silver pendant — from the district that built its name on silversmithing and commercialised electroplating.
Bangle
Sterling silver
A polished sterling-silver bangle — silversmithing is the Quarter's founding craft, the trade the Assay Office was built in 1773 to serve.
Pendant
14K gold-filled
An engraved hinged locket that opens — Birmingham was a major British locket-manufacturing centre, and this is the gold-filled everyday form of that trade.
Charm
Sterling silver
A solid-silver engravable initial disc — small struck silverwork rounding out the district's silversmithing shelf.
