One place that really doesn't stress me out though is Winsor Bishop, this independent Trinity Street store has
the most welcoming and accommodating staff.
You really feel like you are sitting round a friend’s beautiful lounge
when you go in… If your friend had more bubbly than a champagne house in France
and a whole shed load of precious stones that is!
A fortunate
few bloggers (myself included) got to have an exclusive look around the Cambridge
store at their blogger event this week. Mini
cakes and prosecco was offered (and gratefully accepted) and we got to try on
anything we wanted. Hearing the staff
tell stories of the ‘Indiana Jones dude’ who sources their gems not only
conjures up ideas of magical adventures, it also puts my mind to rest on if their
jewels are conflict or not*. And that’s a
really good thing because these gems make me wonder if I need both my kidneys
or if one kidney and a tennis bracelet would suffice?
While the
quality jewellery is pretty expensive because much of it is made in the Norwich
store the middle man is cut out, so the price isn’t as crazy as you might
think. They also stock a number of other
well-known brands as well as a few I’d not heard of. A new favourite of mine is Halcyon Days, and
Winsor Bishop is the only stockiest of their embossed bangles and bracelets in
Cambridge.
The Norwich
store being open since 1834 has already cemented stories of generation after generation
coming to purchase their engagement rings, push presents and first
watches. However the Cambridge shop is only
six months old and has all its
stories still to come. Wouldn’t it be
cool to be a part of them?
Have you
been inside yet?
*they’re not in case you were wondering.
