Our Story

Delivering high quality, ethically-made jewellery at a fair price, just the way you want it. Meet the team on a mission to modernise engagement & wedding ring jewellery.

Inception and Evolution

Built on a heritage of family craftsmanship, Gear Jewellers traces its roots to 1969. Our journey begins with a legacy of family jewellers established by Thomas who opened his first jewellery shop in the front porch of our family home in Dolphins Barn, Dublin, which later expanded into a full-fledged business in Dublin's llac Centre.

A diamond engagement ring nestled in a gray velvet ring box with ’GEAR’ branding.

"After 30 years in this business, I've learned that jewellery isn't just about precious metals and stones. It's about marking life's moments - big and small. That's what keeps me passionate about what we do at Gear Jewellers."

Growth and Expansion

After thirty enriching years in the family business, Jeff Gear resolved to venture on his own. In June 2008, despite the global recession, he opened Gear Jewellers in a modest kiosk on Dublin's Parnell Street.

Over the next decade, Jeff's determination drove the business forward. By 2018, Gear Jewellers had expanded to a space four times larger, just three doors from its original location.
