A HISTORY FULL OF COLOUR
David Morris learned his craft as an apprentice to a leading jeweller in 1950s London, establishing his eponymous fine jewellery house at the height of the Swinging Sixties and quickly gaining a global reputation for extraordinary stones and innovative design. Today it remains a family-run business, with Jeremy Morris following in his father’s illustrious footsteps to ensure that David Morris designs are as fresh, enduring and sought-after as ever – the Bond Street London Jeweller with 12 boutiques worldwide and universal appeal.
