Heming
18th and 19th century jewellery, silver and flatware.
Heming’s distinguished history dates to 1745, with the entry of Thomas Heming’s first mark at Goldsmith’s Hall, registered to a Piccadilly address. He was made a freeman of the Goldsmith’s Company in 1746, and went on to become the pre-eminent British jeweller of his generation.
Shaped by a valuable apprenticeship to the Huguenot goldsmith Peter Archambo, beginning in 1738, Heming’s talent rose to prominence in 1760 with his appointment as Principal Goldsmith to the King (George lll) a position he held until 1782 the year before he retired.
Heming Royal WarrantSucceeded initially by son George Heming and thereafter by subsequent family generations, the business has since prospered from a number of Mayfair addresses, including Bond Street and Conduit Street, and has enjoyed regular royal patronage.
