It was never planned but was always a little spark in the back of my mind that one day I would love to have what many women want “ A little shop selling beautiful jewellery & accessories” Over 30 years ago that little spark became a reality & I secured a small retail premises. I soon discovered that my strength & passion lay in the sourcing of beautiful, timeless jewellery that could be worn & admired for many years I started to notice an increased awareness & demand for pearls 16 years ago & I decided to create my own collection. I sourced both freshwater & glass pearls from Europe & the Far East but soon felt that “real” pearls were more interesting & offered so many more options. Today Lido Pearls is still a predominantly freshwater pearl collection but Gemstones & Cubic Zirconias are also included in our designs. It is the quality of the pearl that is vital in our collection, we are not driven by price & will not compromise on quality.
