Since 1952
Over 80 Years of Fine Jewellery
Coopers Jewellers, purveyors of fine jewellery, are a traditional family business founded on four generations of craftmanship, skill and knowledge.
Four generations of heritage
The company was founded in 1952 by Fred C Bush (Simon’s Grandfather) in Dulwich in 1938 who opened his first Sussex branch in Shoreham in 1952. This was taken over by the next generation, Sally and Keith Cooper in 1974 and expanded to include branches in Hove, Worthing, Horsham, Littlehampton, Chichester, Brighton and most recently Southwick where we are now based.
A Family business
Simon Cooper
A third generation master jeweller, Simon, who trained as a diamond mounter manufacturer doing his apprenticeship with David Morris Jewellers in London’s West End and attended the Sir John Cass School of Art.
Oliver Cooper
The fourth generation to join the family business is Oliver Cooper. From the age of just 16, Ollie began his apprenticeship at Goldfinger Rings in London’s famed Hatton Garden, carefully learning the jewellery trade.
