About us

Thank you for choosing Armitage Tools.

We are a family-run, UK-based business with over 25 years of experience serving the jewellery trade. From independent makers to established workshops, we supply high-quality jewellery tools and equipment trusted by professionals and hobbyists alike.

Armitage Tools was founded by John Armitage, who began the business by personally hand-delivering tools to workshops in London’s Hatton Garden and Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter. What started as a hands-on, trade-focused operation has grown into a respected online retailer, allowing us to support jewellers across the UK and around the world - while maintaining the same personal service and industry knowledge we were built on.

Today, we offer a carefully curated range of professional-grade tools, accessories and equipment from leading manufacturers, chosen for their performance, reliability and value. We pride ourselves on understanding the demands of the jewellery bench and only supplying products we genuinely believe in.

Our customers are at the heart of everything we do. Our team brings extensive, practical experience in jewellery tools and processes, and we are always happy to offer guidance - whether you are upgrading your workshop, starting out, or sourcing a specialist tool for a bespoke project.

If you have a specific requirement or need tailored advice, please don't hesitate to contact us for advice. We’re here to help you find the right tools to work with confidence and precision.

Thank you for supporting Armitage Tools. We look forward to being part of your jewellery-making journey.
