[ OTTOLINE ] ( est. Hatton Garden ) — fine jewellery, made upstairs · by appointment

A stone waits eighty million years. We take eleven more weeks.

Rings, earrings and commissions cut, set and finished at the bench above the shop — the same four hands, start to stone.

( scroll — the vitrines are unlocked )

Three vitrines, rotated monthly.

[ 2.31 ct in view ]
Pearl and diamond drop earrings resting on rippled charcoal silk
The Meridian drops — i 1.10 CT · AKOYA

South Sea pearls under old-cut diamonds; the settings articulate, so they move when you do.

Antique gold signet ring with engraved crest on a jeweller's leather pad
The heirloom signet — ii 18 CT · HAND-ENGRAVED

Seal engraving cut by hand in reverse — bring your family's mark, or let us draw you one worth inheriting.

Emerald cut diamond solitaire ring in platinum on dark slate
The quiet solitaire — iii 1.21 CT · E / VS1

An emerald cut hides nothing — which is why we insist on it. Certificate and loupe on the counter, always.

We will happily talk you out of a bigger stone, and into a better one.

[ the house rule ] ( it has cost us money and kept us here )

Made upstairs.

[ 0.02 ct of gold dust reclaimed weekly ]
Traditional jeweller's workbench with brass tools under a single warm lamp

One flight of stairs between the counter and the making.

Every Ottoline piece is made at the bench above the shop — no send-away workshops, no "our atelier in…" that turns out to be a courier account. If you'd like to watch your stone being set, ask; the kettle's usually on.

The good stones never make it to the window.

Forty-five minutes, no obligation, and the loupe is yours for the duration. Commissions begin with tea and a sketchbook.
