The Chalfen Legacy Bespoke Diamond Jewellery for the Ages.

A tale as old as time

The origins of Chalfen of London date back to the end of the 19th century in the heart of London’s jewellery quarter of Hatton Garden.

It was a time when the jewellery trade required something more than precision. The diamonds were cut not for profits and margins, but perfection. The diamond cutter would work with the precious stone to beautify and enhance it. It was the only way to ensure that the diamonds sparkle in a specific way when the wearer wore it.

Today, the Chalfen diamond serves as an inspiration for diamond jewellers in Hatton Garden. We work with the same meticulousness, integrity, and passion as the generations before us. Also, we hold onto the romanticism and magic of diamond cutting.

Over the years, we have worked with thousands of people through our retailers. We think that it is time that we eliminate the middleman and speak directly to the person that counts the most–You.

It’s why along with an extensive network of diamond jewellery stores in the UK, we’re also offering direct consultations with our in-house team of experts.

That way, we can provide you with the real experience of finding the perfect stone.

We combine our diamond knowledge with a collection of GIA certified diamonds and other certified diamonds such as the De Beers certificate to bring you exquisite choices for your bespoke diamond jewellery.

Our industry experts are well-versed in all diamond and precious stone grading systems. It’s because we have generations of experience in the industry. After serving thousands of retailers and jewellery brands, we’re opening our doors for the person that counts the most–YOU.

We have a collection of certified diamonds that meets the 4C quality requirement for diamonds. That means it’s got the right:

Colour

We are one of the few diamond jewellery stores in the UK that source and show rare coloured diamonds along with premium colourless diamonds. We also source semi-precious stones (i.e. emerald, ruby, and sapphire).

Clarity

When it comes to diamond clarity grade, we go above and beyond expectations. We feature flawless stones to SI2’s, and nothing below that. We also know the art of finding the perfect value in certain lower clarity stones (i.e. SI1 stones to VS2 clarity stones) to match your individual needs.

Cut

Our GIA-certified diamond collection comprises of unique diamond cuts and traditional styles. We’ve also got pre-owned and second hand diamonds in the inventory. That makes it possible for you to get diamond jewellery that features timeless diamond cuts, shapes, and style that were popular in the bygone days.

Carat

Whether you’re looking for a 5 ct diamond, 2 ct diamond or, something in between−, we’ve got them all. We have also got big diamonds for cocktail rings and engagement parties along with the wedding jewellery and more. We can showcase our fine diamond jewellery selection remotely if required.

We use these criteria to create bespoke diamond jewellery that encapsulates the essence of your story and the personality of the wearer. That way, you get premium diamonds that have a personal element incorporated in them in one way or another. Once they fit into your choice of jewellery item, they enhance the whole look of your custom luxury jewellery.

In short, you can count on us to get you a stone that was always meant for you.

1914 to the present day! The Chalfen Story...
Humble Beginnings

Humble beginnings

The Chalfen name first appeared in the jewellery world when patriarch Simon, began the family journey as a proud watch maker who worked from a jewellery shop in London.

1914: Simon Chalfen
A true family business

A True Family Business

After the untimely passing of his father in 1934, son Harry was busy earning a name for himself buying and selling second-hand jewellery in soon to be wartime Britain.

Diamonds with life

Diamonds with "Life"

Harry convinced his diamond cutter brother-in-law, Alec, to join forces and form jewellery design house H. Chalfen Ltd with a goal of manufacturing diamond jewellery for the trade.

A Diamond in the Rough

Harry’s son, Brian, was propelled into the business when Harry died unexpectedly in 1965. Brian spent the next 50 years aligning his family name as one of the best diamond jewellery manufacturers in the country.

The future of bespoke british jewellery

The Future of Bespoke British Jewellery

As retailers began overseas manufacturing, the Chalfen brand knew it had to move with the times to maximise its expertise, so turned directly to customers – after all they’d been making jewellery for them for decades, they just didn’t realise it. Today, Chalfen of London is a bespoke jeweller making custom jewellery to the exceptional standard of its legacy and reputation.

2018+: Chalfen of London

Your Bespoke London Jeweller

At the height of our manufacturing for stores across the UK and Ireland, it was a testament to our craftsmanship that we were regularly commissioned to make bespoke pieces for our retailers.

Chalfen of London continues to make everything in the heart of London, with the same attention to detail and passion that began over a century ago. As we now design and manufacture our jewellery directly for you, we’re able to offer our incomparable jewellery at a more competitive price level.

We are also proud to be able to make you a part of this unique and special journey.

The Chalfen Promise

The Chalfen Promise

Diamond quality is not what you think.

Not all diamonds are the same and their beauty cannot be determined from the certificate alone. The reason for this is that ‘a good diamond cutter does not cut good diamonds’. Sounds strange at first until you understand why.

The Chalfen Promise
Jewellery Design

The most significant attribute that determines a diamond’s value is its weight in carats. This means that the best diamond cutters will try to save as much weight from the original rough as possible when polishing the diamond, regardless of whether that makes the diamond sparkle just a little less.

This sparkle, sometimes called scintillation, is created when a diamond’s cut forms a prism. This prism allows light to enter a diamond through the top and break up into red, blue, yellow, orange and white light, whilst bouncing around the internal mirrors created when its facets were polished.

Diamond Selection
Diamond Cut

Every facet plays its role in creating this prism, from its angle and shape to its symmetry. Every tiny amount of weight saved by stretching a facet or changing an angle will reduce the sparkle, as either the light doesn’t break up or leaks out the bottom of the stone.

With over 100 years’ experience, Chalfen of London believes the quality of a diamond should not be measured by its colour and clarity alone but rather the amount of sparkle that the diamond exhibits. This is impossible to read from the information written on a diamond’s certificate, even under the title cut grade.

Chalfen of London promises that every diamond has been selected for sparkle by eye, whether certificated or from one of our two house diamond ranges. After all, it is this sparkle that separates a diamond from any other material on the planet.
