Our History
In 1948 Douglas & Jean Jacobs opened Douglas Jacobs on the Kings Road in Reading, initially selling a hand-picked selection of second hand silver & jewellery. They developed the business together for over 15 years, with their son Ian taking over in 1963. Ian, his wife Adrienne & now their son Adam are continuing the family name looking after their existing & new customers in their sumptuous store on King St in Reading, opened in April 2005.
Jacobs offers an impressive range of exquisite jewellery, silver & watches with the same attention to quality as over 60 years ago. Additionally, Jacobs provides a first-class jewellery design & make up service, sourcing loose stones to customers’ exact requirements & creating memorable individual pieces. We have also been nominated, shortlised & won several awards.
