Our story.
A small shop with a working bench at its heart.
Mano Brava is a jewellery and gift boutique on West Wickham High Street, run by Abby. Alongside the jewellery, gifts and keepsakes in the shop, there is a working repair bench in-store, so a piece can be bought, mended, or made to order in the same place.
Repairs happen at the bench behind the counter: jewellery and watch repairs, resizing, chain and clasp repairs, stone replacement, soldering, engraving, plating, polishing and valuations. Most are done in-house, and small jobs are often finished the same day.
For something new, Abby makes bespoke and custom pieces, from engagement rings and keepsakes to heirlooms remade into something you will wear. A few pieces in the shop she makes herself; others are brought back from Ecuador and from independent makers closer to home.

Workshop
The bench is part of the shop, so conversations, fittings and small adjustments can happen face to face.
