Charlotte Dew, Head of Public Programmes at the Goldsmiths’ Centre, comments: “Shine is a supportive developmental programme for exciting new UK jewellery and silversmithing businesses to present, showcase and sell their collections. Our free, part-time tailored business training helps exhibitors build brand visibility and confidently sell their work both in person and online. Past participants have received prestigious commissions, awards, and showcasing opportunities, including at this year’s Future Icons and Goldsmiths’ Fair.”


All Shine exhibitors will complete a training programme over the summer, where they learned how to present, sell and showcase their new collections. Every purchase supports these emerging businesses and the Goldsmiths’ Centre’s work to champion and help more jewellery and silversmithing businesses to grow.

Interviews and short films created with the makers, as part of their training, will be shared via the Goldsmiths’ Centre’s Instagram channel @gsmithscentre, enabling consumers and trade representatives to interact with these talented makers.
