Brilliantly Birmingham
Brilliantly Birmingham celebrates the rich tradition of designer making that is unique to the city and is an event that continues to be a showcase for designer makers and other individuals involved in creating and selling jewellery in Birmingham, across the West Midlands and beyond. For the past ten years, Brilliantly Birmingham has maintained and strengthened its position as one of the largest jewellery festivals in the UK.
The festival has its roots in Birmingham’s historic Jewellery Quarter a designated conservation area which employs around 4000 people and is home to more than 80 contemporary designer makers, not to mention historic firms that have been trading for hundreds of years. There are also bullion dealers, toolmakers, gem setters, the Birmingham School of Jewellery (part of Birmingham City University ) the Assay Office and a Museum of the Jewellery Quarter – the former Smith and Pepper factory left in a time-warp by its retired owners in 1981 and now a fascinating visitor attraction that reveals the area’s metal-working heritage.
