Oh, Asprey



"Nothing very bad could happen to you there, " says Holly Golightly about Tiffany’s, and so say I about Asprey’s of London. A short walk from Green Park tube station, it’s one of London’s most famous jewellers. They also have a beautiful range of luxury goods, including leather purses.

Asprey’s has caught my attention of late simply because of the new advertisement campaign with Keira Knightley (see this month’s Vogue, Tatler et al). It’s always nice to be reminded of them, just as it’s always nice to be reminded of Molten Brown. These are English designs which will never go out of fashion simply because they exist beyond fashion, on a pedestal where they can’t be touched. It’s not often I throw the word timeless around, but here you go. Asprey = timeless.

Classic English luxury, with classic English luxury pricing. But oh, you get your money’s worth, it might be worth saving for years and years just to own something like this… assuming you have the right doggy (and even if you don’t!)…
