Louise has headed up our jewellery and watches department since 2015. During that time she has overseen the sale of a number of high profile pieces, including a pair of Art Deco diamond earrings by Cartier that sold for £72,000 (hammer price), and an enamel necklace by Liberty & Co. that set a new world record auction price of £31,000 for a piece of Archibald Knox-designed jewellery.
A qualified gemmologist, Louise achieved distinction in both the FGA and DGA professional gemmology and diamond grading qualifications at The School of Jewellery in Birmingham. During her studies she received several awards, including The Hirsh Foundation Award and The Anderson Medal in 2009, followed by The Christie’s Prize for Gemmology, awarded to the best Diploma candidate of the year, in 2010, and the Doug Morgan Trophy.
Previously a jewellery specialist for Bonhams and an examiner for The Gemmological Association of Great Britain, Louise is a member of The Society of Jewellery Historians, with a particular interest in Arts and Crafts and Modernist jewellery design.
