Cox & Power

Sleek, beautifully crafted contemporary designs are the stock-in-trade at Cox & Power. Candy-bright gemstones mounted on simple silver and gold bands, strings of glinting sapphire beads and textured, invitingly tactile men’s rings and cufflinks are among the goodies, while price tags start in the hundreds but soon run into the thousands. Wedding and commitment rings can be customised according to taste: choose the shape, finish and colour of the gold (from £295) and, if you really want to see how the whole process works, you can spend half a day in the workshop alongside goldsmith Power and even take part in the making of your jewellery (from £1,000, plus the cost of the jewel created).
