What it's like to shop at Holts Gems
Holts Gems has been on Greville Street since 1948, making them one of the longest-standing jewellers in the Hatton Garden area. Now in their second generation, they specialise in bespoke engagement rings, fine jewellery, and loose gemstones.
Their first-floor showroom is immaculate and the service consistently earns five-star reviews. Staff are particularly strong on coloured gemstones — sapphires, emeralds, rubies — if you are considering something beyond a traditional diamond centre stone.
The appointment-based model means you get dedicated, unhurried attention. They will walk you through every option without pressure. If craftsmanship and gemstone expertise matter to you more than having a ring builder app, Holts Gems is worth booking.
