About Us

Jeremy France Jewellers
A Winchester Tradition Since 1990

 

     Jeremy France Jewellers opened in Winchester in October 1990, after having a successful shop  in Kent for a number of years.  From its earliest days when the shop was operated solely by Jeremy, Sarah and one sales assistant, Jeremy France Jewellers has grown into a major retailer of fine jewellery in Winchester, employing 5 goldsmiths, 2 designers and 11 sales staff with a customer base of thousands in Hampshire and surrounding areas.   

        
                              




Our Conflict Diamond Policy


Jeremy was one of the first diamond dealers in the country to write to all of his diamond suppliers and diamond jewellery suppliers to confirm that they where complying with the Kimberly process.  This process insures that all diamonds sold by these companies have been tracked from the mine through cutting and to us.  This reduces the possibility of any diamond being sold through the Winchester shop having contributed to any conflict.

Service to the Community

Jeremy France Jewellers recently celebrated 20 years in Winchester.  The business has strong ties to the community and we are proud to participate in a number of charitible activities.  These are some of the highlights of our community service projects:


Wave 105 Cash for Kids Sahara Challenge

In March 2011, Sarah France (Director) and James Rudge (Goldsmith), participated in the Wave 105 Cash for Kids Sahara Challenge.  The grueling trek across the Sahara Desert took three days and raised a large sum for this deserving charity.  Well done to Sarah and James!






Arthritic Splints Help Those With Progressive Arthritis




In cooperation with Hamphire County Hospital, Jeremy France Jewellers has developed silver ring splints to aid patients with progressive arthritis in the fingers. The splints help patients maintain the position of the fingers and helps to relieve the pain. The splints are made in our workshops and the patient is charged only for the materials used in manufacture.  Many patients have been helped with these splints.


Charity Polishing for Naomi House

Jeremy France Jewellers offers a "while you wait" ring cleaning and polishing service.  All that is asked of the customer is a donation to the charity box.  These donations have raised as much as £2,000 annually for Naomi House Childrens Hospice.
