Our Story
One vision. One name. NUR.
NUR — meaning "light" in Arabic — was born from a belief that fine jewellery should carry meaning. Every piece we create starts with a story: a woman, a moment, a feeling worth holding onto forever.
The atelier
NUR is based in London's Hatton Garden quarter, two streets back from the jewellers who have worked this corner since the 14th century. Our workshop is small by design — ten goldsmiths, two stone-setters, one polisher — because every piece we make passes through hands, not machines.
From the moment a design is sketched to the moment a piece is hallmarked at the Goldsmiths' Company Assay Office across the road, the entire process is measured in days, not hours. This is what handcrafted truly means.
Our materials
NUR uses only 18ct recycled gold (yellow, white, and rose), 950 platinum on commission, and GIA-certified diamonds traced from rough to finished stone. Coloured stones, when used, are sourced through suppliers signed up to the Coloured Stones Working Group code of practice.
We do not use lab-grown stones unless a client asks us to. We do not use plated metals. Every piece carries a UK hallmark — proof of metal content, certified by the Crown.
Bespoke
Every piece NUR sells can be reimagined — and entirely new pieces can be designed from scratch. The bespoke process spans a private consultation, hand-rendered sketches, a CAD render, and four to eight weeks of atelier work. Begin a consultation.
