Brooches

A distinctive collection of brooches for every way you dress

Brooches bring a considered finishing touch to tailoring, knitwear, scarves and special-occasion outfits. This umbrella collection spans refined decorative pins in classic, contemporary and expressive forms, offering jewellery that can be worn as a subtle accent or a focal point. Choose ladies brooches with delicate gemstone detail, sculptural ornamental pins that add texture to a lapel, or polished dress pins for a clean, minimal look. A brooch also makes a thoughtful keepsake, particularly for Christmas, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, milestone birthdays and anniversaries. Whether selected to complement a treasured wardrobe or to mark a personal moment, each design offers an elegant alternative to more conventional jewellery.

Discover gemstone-led brooches in colours that suit your style

The range is shaped by the character of its gemstones, allowing you to choose a brooch with a clear visual mood. For timeless brilliance, browse diamond brooches, where light-catching stones lend a formal, enduring finish. A lab grown diamond brooch offers the same recognisable diamond look, while black diamond brooches create a more dramatic contrast against pale gold or darker fabrics.

Colour opens up further possibilities. An emerald brooch brings rich green depth, while a ruby brooch is an expressive choice for celebratory dressing. Blue stones range from the classic intensity of a sapphire brooch to the airy tone of an aquamarine brooch. For a softer palette, explore a pink sapphire brooch or a morganite brooch. These directions make it easier to match a favourite colour, birth-month sentiment or the atmosphere of an occasion.

Consider the scale and placement alongside the stone. Smaller jewellery pins can sit neatly on a collar or scarf, whereas a larger gem-set design can transform the shoulder of a coat or dress. A brooch can also be fastened at the waist, on a hat or to a handbag, creating a look that feels individual rather than prescribed.

Gold, gemstones and craftsmanship at the heart of the collection

Gold brooches unite enduring precious-metal appeal with the detail of a carefully chosen stone or design. Options in 9ct gold, 14ct gold and 18ct gold allow you to select the colour and gold purity that best suits your existing jewellery. In the United Kingdom, 9ct and 18ct gold are the two classic British finenesses, making both familiar choices for gifts and personal collections.

Gold and diamond brooches offer a particularly versatile balance, pairing the warmth or coolness of the metal with a gemstone known for its bright, crisp appearance. Diamond brooches may feature natural diamonds or lab grown diamonds, depending on the design selected. Where applicable, GIA certified diamonds provide independent documentation of a diamond’s assessed characteristics. Gemstone settings, metal finish and the construction of the pin all contribute to how a brooch sits and catches the light when worn.

UK hallmarking is a legal requirement for qualifying precious-metal articles and is carried out by assay offices in London, Birmingham, Sheffield and Edinburgh. This long-established system is an important form of consumer protection when choosing precious-metal jewellery.

How do you choose a brooch that feels right for you?

Choose brooches by considering where they will be worn, the colours you reach for most often and the level of detail you want. For daily styling, a streamlined gold design or modest gemstone accent can work beautifully on a jacket, cardigan or scarf. For celebrations, diamond brooches and vivid coloured stones can provide a more pronounced finish. Match white-toned metals with cool colours and black tailoring, or select yellow and rose-toned gold for warmth against cream, brown and jewel-coloured fabrics.

Think about proportion before choosing. A compact pin can add polish without overwhelming a fine blouse, while a larger ornamental design has greater presence on a structured coat or heavier knit. If the piece is a gift, personalised brooches offer room for a message with lasting relevance. Engraved jewellery is especially suited to initials, a date or a short sentiment that connects the design to an anniversary, Mother’s Day or another meaningful occasion.
