FORGE Wins Highly Commended at the UK Jewellery Award!
On Wednesday 26 June we attended the glittering UK Jewellery Awards and we are extremely delighted, honoured and proud to have received a Highly Commended for ‘Store Design of the Year’. This recognition is especially significant as it's the first year that the UK Jewellery Awards have introduced Highly Commended accolades!
The UK Jewellery Awards said:
“Judges requested that this multi-purpose creative hub and retail space in Hatton Garden be recognised because, while it is not a jewellery store in the traditional sense, they were full of praise for what it is bringing to the industry and think this is a model that can and should be replicated in other cities.”
The competition was tough, with nine strong contenders in the category, so even though we didn’t clinch the top prize, we are thrilled to have received this recognition and a huge congratulations to the winner, Camilla Jones, for her achievement.
Special thanks to Caitlin Murphy for being our founder Amanda Mansell's awards buddy for the evening, and congratulations to Caitlin for her well-deserved award for “Emerging Jewellery Designer of the Year.”
A big shout out to Susi Smither of The Rock Hound for winning “Creative Jewellery Designer of the Year” and to our FORGE Friend Sam Snow for her Highly Commended recognition for “Emerging Jewellery Designer of the Year.”
Thank you to the entire team at Retail Jeweller and the main supporter, the National Association of Jewellers, for organising such a wonderful event.
We are grateful for this acknowledgement and look forward to continuing our mission to foster creativity, craftsmanship, and community in the jewellery industry. Thank you to everyone who supports FORGE – this recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team and community.
Warm regards,
The FORGE Team
