In their 2025 ‘Watches & Jewellery Special’, Marie Claire UK outlined their top 10 movers and shakers in fine jewellery– including Cece Jewellery and Tom Foolery. Here at the British Academy of Jewellery (BAJ), we’re always thrilled to celebrate success within our wonderful community- read on to discover more.
“An ode to the artistry, innovation, and meaning behind the pieces we wear every day (and those we dream of passing down). From modern icons to future classics, the special explores the stories behind the sparkle.” – Marie Claire
In exquisite fine jewellery, Cece Fein Hughes draws on motifs of nature and imagination, shifting between earthly and ethereal at will. Crafting a design language both tangible and otherworldly, Cece’s hand-enamelled jewellery moves the eye and heart. Each piece is handcrafted individually in London by talented goldsmiths and stone-setters. At the heart of Cece Jewellery is the ancient art of champlevè enamel. From her original watercolour paintings, a master enameller recreates Cece’s art in exacting and intricate detail.
“At the British Academy of Jewellery I studied design, and in the workshops of Hatton Garden, I discovered the alchemy of our craft. At the end of a day’s making, gold has become jewellery, and a story has come to life.” – Cece Fein Hughes
