Handcrafted By Pragnell
Our Commitment to Craftsmanship and Transparency
At Pragnell, every jewel is created with an unwavering dedication to responsible craftsmanship and transparent provenance. We are committed to clearly communicating the country of manufacture for each piece — a principle rooted in ethical practice and long standing membership of the Responsible Jewellery Council. We work exclusively with suppliers and mines that uphold exceptional environmental and social standards.
A Heritage of Artisanship
Over the past decade, we have curated a global network of specialist workshops, enabling us to collaborate with outstanding craftspeople across every discipline of fine jewellery making. Alongside this, we directly employ and train artisans in Great Britain, ensuring traditional skills are preserved and passed through generations. All Pragnell jewellery is designed and developed in Great Britain, by members of the family.
Craftsmanship in Our British Workshops
The vast majority of Pragnell jewellery is handmade in our British workshops, two of which an be viewed inside our Stratford-upon-Avon and Leicester showrooms. Here, specialists in stone setting, CAD design, chain making and polishing, work with meticulous precision to uphold our exceptional standards. The remaining pieces are created in partner ateliers in Italy, the United States, Switzerland, and Germany, chosen for their generational expertise and revered craft traditions.

Precision Cutting and Setting
Our relationship with American workshops began during Managing Director Charlie Pragnell’s training in New York, where he built connections with expert goldsmiths and diamond cutters. In these workshops, calibre-cut diamonds can be shaped and set side by side with extraordinary skill.

Specialists in Rare Gemstone Setting
In Geneva, Switzerland, our specialist artisans carefully polish and set exceptionally rare, high-quality gemstones. Often sourced from antique pieces, these investment grade stones may require restoration after centuries of wear before becoming part of a new Pragnell creation.
