Bramble & Crest. A workshop. A shop. Generations of craftsmen.
What we make.
Cufflinks. Tie bars. Collar bars. A small range of lapel pins. That's it. We don't do watches, we don't do jewellery for other occasions, and we don't do seasonal collections. The range is what it is because we know it well.
The workshop has six people. Four of them finish by hand. Every piece goes through a final manual check before it ships — not a box-ticking exercise, a real look under a loupe. If something isn't right, it goes back.
Edward started this in 2011 after twelve years working in silversmithing. He was tired of accessories that looked fine in a box and fell apart on a cuff. The first run was forty pairs. We sold them to colleagues, then to their colleagues, and it grew from there — slowly, without a plan to scale.
Materials are sourced from a small number of suppliers we've worked with for years. Sterling silver, solid brass, and 18-carat gold plate where it's specified. We don't use hollow castings. We don't do fast-turn production runs.
About two-thirds of our orders are from men who've bought before. Some have been customers since 2013. That's the figure we pay attention to — not units shipped.
Join the community of collectors and professionals who've trusted us since those early years. If you're the kind of man who reads the spec before he buys, you'll find everything you need here. Take the next step and reach out if you have a question — we answer our own correspondence.
