Founded in 1774 by Jonathan Mappin, Mappin & Webb is one of theUK's leading retailers of fine jewelry and silverware.

Today, it is renowned for combining timeless craftsmanship with superior quality and contemporary design to produce exquisite jewelry,

elegant silverware, watches and glassware.

Jonathan Mappin opened his first small silversmith workshop inSheffieldin 1774 and the following year the Mappin mark was entered at the

assay office.

Over the next fifteen years Jonathan Mappin's reputation for producing high quality silver spread throughoutSheffield. From these humble

beginnings the business grew steadily and soon the next generation were expanding the business further.

The first store to be opened inLondonwas in 1849 at17 Fore Streetand was soon followed by stores in Moorgate andKing William Street. In

1858, following rapid expansion of theSheffieldfactory, John Newton Mappin invited his brother-in-law, George Webb to join him in the

business. The first association of Mappin & Webb was forged.

Mappin & Webb's reputation spread as the business became a leading name within its field. A testament to its success came in 1897 with the

granting of Royal Warrants. Today Mappin & Webb is silversmith to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and to His Royal Highness Prince
