Manchester is served from our second workshop at Lowry Mill in Swinton, about twenty minutes from the city centre. Work from M postcodes stays in the north west rather than travelling to Aldershot, so you can drop a piece in, collect it when it is finished, and talk an antique or a trade batch through before anything is quoted.

Colour Is Easier To Settle In Person

Photographs flatten the difference between 24 carat, 18 carat, rose and antique tones. At Swinton you can hold the piece against samples in daylight and choose the texture before committing, which is the part email cannot do. For inherited work and trade batches that conversation decides the job.

Gold plating questions, answered.

Everything you need to know about gold plating, including costs, durability, processes, and what to expect. These answers are based on real industry standards to help you make confident decisions before plating your items.

Can you match a finish across a set plated at different times?

That is what the specification record is for. Carat, tone, texture and thickness are logged after the first approved run, so pieces added months later are plated to the same figures.

Is the Manchester workshop the same service as Aldershot?

Yes. The same preparation, the same high-purity gold, the same inspection before anything leaves and the same two-year warranty. Where a job needs a specific tank or a specialist finish we move it between workshops and tell you if that changes the turnaround.

Can I drop a piece off and collect it in Manchester?

Yes. Manchester customers can drop off and collect rather than posting, and larger items such as light fittings or a full set of door hardware can be collected from you by arrangement.

Where is your Manchester workshop?

At Lowry Mill, Lees Street, Swinton, Pendlebury M27 6DB, about twenty minutes from Manchester city centre. Contact us before you set off so someone is there to receive the piece and take the details we need to quote.

Manchester jewellers, bar and restaurant fit-out firms and product designers can use the Swinton workshop for matched batches and repeat runs, with the approved finish specification held on file for the next order.
