The Just Gems Shop

27 North Street, Winchcombe, Gloucestershire

The shop has a wide selection of carefully sourced unmounted gems. If you would like to choose a loose gem in any size, shade or cut, we have a large number of suitable stones just waiting for you! Our gems are collected from personal contacts of Helen Plumb, relationships she has developed over more than twenty years of working with the international gemmological trade. Wherever possible, our stones are ethically sourced and many come from known mines in Brazil, Afghanistan, East Africa, Sri Lanka and elsewhere.

We also love pearls at Just Gems, and offer a matching service to make up earrings, bracelets, pendants or necklaces that will enhance your own pearl jewellery. We restring pearls in our workshop and can replace or repair damaged clasps. Please note that we only mount natural gemstones and restring real pearls (cultured or natural) and gemstones. We do not work with simulants.

Just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you so much for taking us patiently through all the gems and ring choices on Saturday. My fiance and I really appreciate it, as the whole process was more than a little daunting at the start! So excited to see the made-up ring now!

Mr D writes…

“Just Gems” came recommended by a friend who knew the owner Helen Plum personally.
I have now visited the shop on four occasions and have been treated so nicely and helpfully on every occasion.
I don’t know much about jewellery, and I was advised and informed patiently, and without pressure.
I have now bought two items for my wife - an opal pendant and a pair of south sea pearl ear rings.
The quality of the stones is clear, and the workmanship is excellent, and my wife has been delighted (and wants more!!)
I shall look no further than “Just Gems” when buying my jewellery in the future - cannot recommend enough.
