About Us

Golden Snowdrop is an independent jewellery store with a difference. Our priority is to design and craft meaningful quality that resonated with our customers.

We believe that every piece should have a story to tell, from bespoke engagement rings using family diamonds, to a pair of silver studs handmade locally.


Founded in 2020 by Stephanie Longhurst a Gemmologist, Diamond Specialist and Designer.


Golden Snowdrop was inspired by Stephanie's idea of an ideal jewellery store that specialises in bespoke and remodelled fine jewellery, alongside Vintage and local Artisan made pieces.
