Owen andJones

A goldsmiths' shop and workshop on Bridge Street in Hungerford, opened in December 2020 by Stephen Jones and Gary Colbert-Owen, both trained goldsmiths. Work is made and repaired on the premises: the pair design and hand-make bespoke pieces, remodel old or inherited jewellery, and carry out repairs, resizing and restringing at the bench rather than sending items away. The shop also sells a selection of finished jewellery and offers valuations and commissions, working with customers from an initial sketch through to the finished piece. Being a single small workshop, the detail and turnaround are handled directly by the makers rather than through a chain's central service. It sits among the independent shops and antiques dealers of Hungerford's market town, close to the Kennet and Avon Canal, and is open across the week for repairs and consultations.
