H.Samuel has almost 400 stores nationwide and is part of the Signet Jewelers Ltd, the world's largest specialist jeweller. The H.Samuel story began in 1862 when Harriet Samuel took over her father-in-law's clock-making business in Liverpool. Harriet moved the business to Manchester's Market Street and ran the mail order side. Her son developed the retail area.
The first H.Samuel retail store opened in Preston in 1890, closely followed by branches in Rochdale and throughout Lancashire. To accommodate the growing business, the company moved to large headquarters in Birmingham in 1912.

  I bought an 18kt gold engagement ring i a hsamuls shop in Galway Ireland The ring was only three years old and I brought it in to the shop to get it cleaned and inspected. I was informed that there was alot of damage done to ring. I could not believe it because the ring was only used as a dress ring and was not always on my finger. I was informed the ring would cost over 600 euros to get repaired. I wrote to quality control in England and the outcome of that was to send ring to England and I did..

  Lovely shop to go into,plenty of choice to suit all pockets and make you wish you could spend in there every week at least!Lady assistant,very pleasant and the only thing that disappointed me was they had some really nice stemmed glasses for 18yrs and when I asked if they were for 21yrs as well,I was let down because the answer was no!..
