Serving Nelson since 1855
About 29 Bridge Street
Since its construction in 1855 by Thomas Askew, this historic building has been a cornerstone of Nelson’s evolving commercial landscape. Over the decades, it has inspired and supported a wide range of enterprises — from a butcher’s shop and cooperage to a corsetry and lingerie boutique, an art gallery, a cherished home, and a jeweller.
As the oldest surviving commercial building in Nelson still in operation, it stands as a testament to the resilience and adaptability of our community. We are honoured to continue its legacy, contributing to the rich tapestry of local history while offering fine jewellery, timepieces, and expert repair services. Serving Nelson from this remarkable space is both a privilege and a responsibility we proudly uphold.
