JeDeCo came down from Heaven...
JeDeCo's mission upon conception was to bring short-run, high-design, affordable and on-trend designer jewellery to style-savvy jewellery wearers and collectors.
We also aimed to give fashion & jewellery editors and stylists an alternative to mass market jewellery brands when styling their photoshoots. Missions accomplished.
They were our altruistic missions, to make the world a prettier more unique place. The third motivation was to create a group of talented designers who could support each other at the various stages of our business development, so that we could buck the High-Street-homogenisation trend and have successful independent jewellery businesses that would make the UK jewellery industry proud.
We are well on our way. Take a look at our Designers page, and click through to our personal websites. You will see that most of us are showing at events, collaborating with or supplying to retailers, being nominated for awards, and being featured in the press. And others of us are just starting out on promising design careers.
Join us, wear us.
Past, present & future
JeDeCo launched in the summer of 2009, at the Treasure exhibition during London Jewellery Week. We have been Prestige Partners of London Jewellery Week every year since 2009, showcasing at the VIP events during the Week, forging partnerships with press and retailers, and meeting private clients.
Our commitment to London Jewellery Week remains, and we hope to see you there every year. We also show at a selection of jewellery and fashion shows through the year, so please see our News page for details.
