jeweller's history

When Paul Longmire was wandering through St. James's in late 70s London, an exquisite tie pin caught his eye in the window of a long-established jeweller and silversmith. A few hours later he was not only the owner of the tie pin, but the business itself.

Paul Longmire had followed in his family's tradition as a successful antique dealer and interior designer, but he had always nurtured a more personal passion for jewellery.

Seeing his opportunity for a late career change he reopened the jewellery store with his wife Eleanor under his own name.

They originally displayed only a few pairs of favourite cufflinks, but soon found they had a natural affinity for fine cufflinks.  This snowballed naturally into ultimately establishing Longmire as the world’s leading name for cufflinks of exceptional quality.

Longmire - retail history

Over time business grew and the company’s retail presence expanded. The brand has had shops in some of London's most fashionable streets. Hans Road opposite Harrods in 1999, on Sloane Street in 2002, and Bond Street from 2004 - 13.

Its biggest and last was on the iconic Jermyn Street - a centre of excellence in tailoring for men - just around the corner from the original shop.
