Joseph H Bonnar

I have seldom been treated with such disdain and disinterest as by the stuck up and rude staff employed in this establishment.
The queenly owner seem more interested in slacious tittle tattle and name dropping than providing proper customer service.
Spend your hard earned cash elsewhere, from the way they behave those here do not seem to want it anyway.

If you like unique pieces of jewelry then head here. I walked past this place today after reading Stephanie T. review. It’s true some of the pieces in here are truly amazing but alas will remain a thing of fantasy as my budget is no where near to the prices and plus I have my round the world in a year trip as a priority.
However, here is a little piece on the man himself
Worth a browse just for curiosity’s sake really and you can be the judge for the pieces and prices.

I recognised the name of the shop as soon as I walked past. Joseph Bonnar. I remember reading a piece about the man himself in a newspaper, in which he showcased a brooch to the journalist which cost £18,000, and would have cost double that had he left the original middle stone in. Wow. Imagine having that pinned on to your River Island coat? We can but dream, eh girls?
Mr Bonnar specialises in antique and period jewellery, which is tres beautiful and tres expensive. While this combination excites me, it also makes me frown at the same time, because students can’t usually afford this sort of thing! Just browsing in the store is a sublime treat for the senses, as the glistening, glittering parade of rings, necklaces and earrings simply dazzle you as you gaze in awe at them. These pieces are simple, decadent and you can imagine them pinned to the fur coat of some 50’s Hollywood movie star, waltzing down the red carpet.
Maybe one day! But until then, a browse around this gorgeous shop shall have to do!
