TORY & KO’s collaboration was based on an idea to create a treasury of beautifully designed jewellery pieces which can be collected and enjoyed by women of all ages.
The Wellington jewellers have several Jewellery Collections which cater for many tastes along with their main Jewellery Design & Manufacture service which offers customers unique, individually designed and hand-crafted pieces for special occasions or to add to their jewellery wardrobe.
