Theo Fennell is an acclaimed British jewelry and silverware designer. After graduating from art school, first in York and then at the Byam Show, he discovered his passion for detail and the ability to bring grand ideas to miniature. Theo got his first job as an apprentice with Edward Barnard, a company founded in the 17th century. Having accumulated enough knowledge and experience, he was able to open his own workshop for the design and creation of silverware in Hatton Garden. And in 1982, the designer’s first store opened on Fulham Road in Chelsea. Further, products under the Theo Fennell brand began to be sold in the most famous stores not only in England, but throughout the world.
Jewelry from Theo Fennell has been interesting to the world for over 30 years. The collections of this designer have changed the way many people think about jewelry.
Theo draws ideas from everything he sees around him. It is the inspiration from the surrounding world that is one of the reasons that the jewelry of this master has such a wide and eclectic palette – from Ancient Greece to rock and roll. The designer always carries a sketchbook with him in case something catches his eye. Further, these sketches are discussed and brought to life by a team working together with a jewelry genius. Many craftsmen have been working with Theo Fennell for over 20 years, creating exceptional pieces every day. They all share a passion for detail, a love of experimentation and the designer’s humor.
Theo Fennell products are born as the result of an unusual, idiosyncratic fantasy brought to life by the efforts of a dedicated team. Not the last place in the work of the famous genius is a unique approach to each client. In the studio on Fulham Road, each customer has the opportunity to watch how a sketch created especially for him evolves from a two-dimensional drawing on paper into a miniature work of art.
Theo Fennell is one of the few companies in the UK that also makes handcrafted silverware. Over the years, the company has produced trophies for major sporting and cultural events such as the Vodafone Italian Grand Prix, the PGA European Tour and the European Filmawards. Thus, the recognized designer demonstrates that jewelry can be not only beautiful, interesting and romantic gizmos. They can still give the thrill of experienced emotions every time you look at them.
