Considered
by many to be Bath's prettiest street, Northumberland Place has retained
its charm throughout the centuries.
Affectionately known to the locals as the passage, the undoubted jewel
among the quaint and largely unaltered shops in this paved street is
the home of jewellery designer and goldsmith Nicholas Wylde.
This
is a jewellery shop with a difference.
Many goldsmiths and jewellers sell designer jewellery but at Nicholas
Wylde he is the designer.
Nicholas Wylde first became interested in jewellery as a boy,
whilst watching the goldsmiths at work in Birminghams jewellery
quarter. He decided that jewellery was to be his future.
After training at Birminghams prestigious School of Jewellery,
he moved to Bath and opened his first shop in 1987, at the age of 24.
His designs, from one-off commissions to larger corporate orders, are
hand made in the workshop on the premises. Inspiration comes from everything
around him - shapes, colours, textures and his great passion, vibrant
gemstones.
" I find great satisfaction in designing a piece of jewellery
which becomes very special to a customer".
Friendly
sales consultants as well as Nicholas himself are on hand to offer advice
and information on the wide range of exclusive jewellery and unusual
gemstones on show.
Free cleaning and insurance valuations are also available.
Nicholas invites you to visit his shop to admire the timeless pieces
on offer and would like to remind you of the anniversaries that are
so often forgotten:-
15 years crystal - 25 years silver - 30 years pearl - 35 years coral
- 40 years ruby - 45 years sapphire - 50 years gold - 55 years emerald
- 60 years diamond.
