Georgina Izzard

Design historian, independent jewellery specialist and gemmologist

I research and write about jewellery history and gemstones. I undertake archival projects for international jewellery houses alongside my own research as a design historian specialising in mid twentieth-century jewellery craftspeople, their tools, materials and workshops.

I am a Freeman of the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths and a Fellow of the Gemmological Association of Great Britain (FGA).

I made a large appearance at the Goldsmiths’ Fair and was very proud to be one of their ‘collectors’.
