Gatwards of Hitchin Gatwards of Hitchin is the oldest family jewellery business in the UK (established 1760)

Established in 1760, the Gatwards of Hitchin brand has long been synonymous with quality, reliability and trust. As one of the oldest jewellers in the UK, remarkably Gatwards remains under the ownership of the 7th and 8th generation of the same family. We believe the key to our longevity is not only our commitment to customer service and upholding traditional values, but also our ability to keep up to date with modern trends. Our expert team would love to welcome you to our 15th century Hitchin showroom.
