Kendal Goldsmiths, a family-run jeweller on Highgate, is closing permanently after 37 years as owner Andrew Dawson retires. The shop will launch a 50 per cent closing-down sale on all fine jewellery from Saturday, November 7.

The Highgate premises have housed a jeweller since the late 1930s. Kendal Goldsmiths began as a small shop in 1989 and later expanded to a neighbouring unit as the business grew. The shop earned a reputation for its customer service and product knowledge, with many families returning for generations.

Dawson, aged 65, said that building the business over 37 years had been wonderful and that he had been privileged to be part of customers' lives and special occasions. He added that he felt the time was right to look forward to the next chapter and that he was excited about retirement and the opportunities it would bring. He said he looked forward to pursuing a long-held ambition to gain his pilot's licence.
