TRUE Elegance and timeless charm

The Michael Matthews Jewellery story began with one man’s passion for jewellery, a passion that now lives on through his sons, Michael and Matthew. Unlike many modern family jewellers, we specialise in both purchasing and selling fine second-hand jewellery.

Our expertise in Art Deco and Vintage jewellery has been central to our growth, laying the foundation for this unique department. The term “Significant” reflects our carefully curated collection of branded, reputable second-hand jewellery, as well as pieces of notable size and value. We invite you to discuss our collection or schedule an appointment with a Director if you are considering a sale.  

COLLECTIONS OF EXQUISITE DIAMONDS AND GEMS

At Michael Matthews Jewellery, you will discover an exquisite collection of fine jewellery, designed to inspire. From timeless Diamond Stud Earrings and Pendants for daytime elegance to striking Chandelier Drop Earrings and Diamond Collars for evening sophistication, our selection offers something for every occasion.

Our gemstone jewellery features an exceptional range of Sapphire, Ruby, and Emerald pieces, alongside an extensive collection of semi-precious gemstone designs. We take pride in tailoring our creations to suit your individual preferences, offering custom remakes in a variety of precious metals and alternative gemstones.

ABOUT MICHAeL MATTHEWS

Established in 1999 in the charming area of Westbourne, Poole, Michael Matthews Jewellery has grown over three decades to become a second-generation business, now recognised as one of Bournemouth’s most cherished establishments.

Despite outgrowing two previous showrooms, we remain committed to the ethos that fuelled our success: “large enough to serve, small enough to care.” Our dedicated staff are integral to our story and legacy, prioritising customer satisfaction and guidance.

We offer Dorset’s most extensive selection of diamond engagement and bridal jewellery, along with a collection of pre-owned watches renowned across the South Coast. Our website provides a window to Michael Matthews Jewellery, but we invite you to visit us in person to experience not only our curated products but also our exceptional retail experience.
