Lucy Quartermaine
In 2007, a young woman named Lucy Quartermaine, brought her dream to life and created her designer brand from scratch. She recalls being in awe of her Grandmother’s skill of creating jewellery from a young age and developed her first piece of Silver jewellery at just 16 years of age.
After discovering her passion for jewellery as a child, she gained a BA Hons at Sheffield Hallam University in 2003 after completing an intense 3-year course of "Jewellery and Metalwork Design". Lucy Quartermaine is now an award-winning English contemporary Jewellery designer and silversmith.
Her designs can be seen on numerous A-list British and American celebrities and in many top glossy magazines such a Red, Vogue, Look, Cosmopolitan and many more.
Based in Chester where she grew up with her family, Lucy now works from her office and boutique in the heart of the city. It has always been a goal of hers to open a creative hub for herself and other like-minded companies. This dream became a reality in 2019 after moving to The Old Coach House with five other creative businesses. She also offers exclusive bespoke design appointments from her boutique.
In 2019, Lucy won UK Designer of the Year with Professional Jeweller magazine and International Jeweller of the Year with the Leading Lights Awards. Additionally, in 2017, Lucy Quartermaine won the prestigious award of "Jewellery Designer of the Year" at the UK’s Jewellery awards. In accordance to this she was also named "Trendsetter" in the Professional Jeweller Hot 100 2013, as well as being nominated a finalist for the prestigious "Designer of the Year" at the 2013 and 2014 UK Jewellery Awards and the British Jewellery Association Awards. Lucy’s designer collections have also won Collection of the Year with Professional Jeweller magazine in 2017, 2018 and 2019.
She creates remarkable designs and can fuse her design ambition alongside her knowledge and practice as an experienced silversmith. Many years on and Lucy is constantly raising the bar to stand out and be unique, as her bold creations continue to be at the forefront of British Jewellery design and have led to her being instantly recognisable within the jewellery industry and for followers of her stunning brand.
Her brand goes by the motto: "Life is too short to wear boring Jewellery".
