The breakthrough BBC TV series All That Glitters aired earlier this year, giving the public a glimpse into what goes into making a piece of jewellery by hand. Hosted by Katherine Ryan and judged by expert designers, Shaun Leane and Solange Azagury-Partridge, the series aired to a weekly audience of over 2 million, and put jewellers under the kosh in weekly challenges to “find Britain’s next jewellery star”.

All That Glitters proved to be a landmark moment for jewellery, showcasing the talent and craftsmanship of the country’s jewellers to a mainstream audience and helping to demystify what it takes to handcraft a jewel. 

But what was it like for the contestants? At The Jewellery Cut Live in association with Fuli Gemstones, you can find out as Rachael Taylor, jewellery journalist and founder of The Jewellery Cut, quizzes some of the contestants from the show in a live talk at the event.
