Astley Clarke opens first physical store
Luxury jeweller Astley Clarke has chosen London’s Seven Dials for the opening of its first physical store.
Situated at 31 Monmouth Street, the 900 square foot space houses the brand’s full collection of fine and demi-fine jewellery and also offers exclusive locket personalisation services.
Founded in 2006 as an online retailer by Bec Astley Clarke, the brand’s products are also stocked in London’s Selfridges, Liberty and on FarFetch.
Scott Thomson, chief executive of Astley Clarke, said: “At Astley Clarke we are extremely proud of our heritage and it was important for us that our debut store opening reflects this. As a prime retail destination which champions authenticity, Seven Dials was carefully selected for our debut flagship store as the synergy of the destination with our brand ethos is of the utmost importance. We are excited to be able to expand our luxury offering to our customers in a physical store and take this next step in our expansion journey with Seven Dials.”
Other retailers joining Seven Dials recently include COW Vintage, Anatomē and Billi London.
Samantha Bain-Mollison, retail director at Shaftesbury, said: “As a brand steeped in British tradition, Astley Clarke is a great fit for Seven Dials. Surrounded by other leading luxury jewellers, such as Monmouth Street’s Dinny Hall, and British independents including the likes of Experimental Perfume Club, it is the ideal location for Astley Clarke’s first store and we are excited to work with the brand as they extend their offering to a loyal customer base, which they have cultivated over a number of years.”
