About Us

About Us One of Southends oldest family run business has built up a great reputation for hand-made bespoke jewellery, quality service and excellent value. AV & BV Andrews, of West Road, Shoeburyness, has been in the business for more than 50 years, having been set up by the current owners father at the end of World War II. Bryan Andrews is still keeping the business very much a family one, with the help of his wife, Joan, and son, Martin. They, along with assistant Maria, offer a personal service to customers, which exceeds that offered by some larger chains. As an independent jeweller it offers a unique range of gold and silver items, that cannot be found elsewhere, as well as a variety of different services such as re-modelling jewellery, and handcrafting gold chains and rings, right down to your individual requirements. Their diamond jewellery is available in gold, white gold, silver and platinum, in all sizes, widths and grades. There are single stone rings, diamond cluster rings, platinum wedding rings, diamond earrings, gold bracelets, and silver, emerald, sapphire and ruby jewellery, to name but a few. Alongside their jewellery, AV & BV Andrews also buys gold and silver, offer valuations, sell quality watches, and offer an outstanding repair service for jewellery, watches and clocks. All work is carried out by experienced craftsmen, and most of it is done on the premises. What's more, as all of its work is carried out with a full money back guarantee, subject to terms and conditions, customers also have complete peace of mind. AV & BV Andrews, which can also carry out house calls by appointment, is a member of the National Association of Goldsmiths and the British Watch and Clockmakers Guild.
