Geoffrey Rowlandson was born in 1931 into a family of fashion and jewellery designers. The Rowlandson Company began as a means to create bespoke classic jewellery but twenty years ago the Rowlandson Unique Collection was established to create original and innovative jewellery pieces. Geoffrey's talents were recognised by the Worshipful Company of Goldsmith, earning him 'Jewellery Designer of the Year' twice, 1998-9 and 2002-3, as well as numerous commended awards including 'Me and My Shadow' in 2002 and 'The Royal Christening' in 2014.

The Victoria & Albert Museum exhibited his 'Fire and Ice' Tiara in 2002. Three of his pieces including 'Grand Jeté' were again selected for their 2013 Pearl exhibition.

More recently The Royal Christening brooch was awarded a commendation by The Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths in 2014.
