About Us

Providing all the high quality gemstones, jewellery findings, tools and supplies you need to take your jewellery making ambitions to the next level.

"I have only just recently begun using The Curious Gem for my jewellery supplies. They provide outstanding service every single time and go above and beyond to help. Their products are high quality and perfect for my jewellery business. Thank you so much."

Where it all started

The Curious Gem was founded in 2007 by Victoria Brown, who identified a need for reliable sources of high-quality jewellery-making supplies for her own jewellery designs. Since then the company has grown into a thriving team of over 20 people based in Edinburgh, serving customers across the UK and worldwide. Known for our extensive product range, expert advice, and efficient service, we have become a trusted name in the jewellery-making industry.

"I highly recommend The Curious Gem. It stocks a great range of quality items and the staff are super helpful. Orders are processed very efficiently and everything comes clearly labelled, making it so easy to keep tabs on what I have and what I need to reorder. I'm happy to be a repeat customer and buy with confidence each time."
