A reputation that still holds true today. Founded in 1880 by William Gibson and John Lawrence Langman, The Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Company produced a diverse range of exquisite items, including solid silver tableware, cutlery, jewelry, watches, electroplaters, trophies, and even surgical instruments.

Most notably at the Paris Exhibition in 1900. Their well-deserved success led to a merger with Garrard Co in 1952, acquiring their premises in Regent Street and further solidifying their esteemed legacy.
