Mappin & Webb is an international jewellery company headquartered in England, tracing its origins to a silver workshop founded in Sheffield in 1775; 250 years ago (1775).

The first Mappin & Webb store opened in 1860 at 77–78 Oxford Street, London (renumbered 160–162 in 1880), and the company's candelabras, fine silverware, and vanity products swiftly gained renown.

[10][11] In 1957 and 1958, they further expanded, acquiring plate and cutlery manufacturer, Gladwin Limited of Sheffield and then, via John Weiss, a 50% interest in dispensing chemist, Lewis & Burrows.

[18] Following the change of control, in October 1959, Mappin & Webb bought Garrard & Co, the Crown Jeweller, for almost £1 million.

[21] Mappin & Webb has created jewellery for royalty and high society; both in the United Kingdom, and internationally.

[1] Mappin & Webb has held warrants to both Queen Elizabeth II, and King Charles III.

In August 1959, Sears Holdings Ltd increased their ownership in Mappin & Webb to 98%, after earlier acquiring a controlling interest.

[27] In December 2006, Mappin & Webb, together with Watches of Switzerland, were acquired by Goldsmiths, which was also owned by the Baugur Group.

[28] On 2 February 2009, the business and assets of Mappin & Webb were transferred to the Aurum Group (previously known as Goldsmiths).
