‘From Hatton Garden to Newcastle’: Luxury retailer announces new city centre base

Luxury jewellery, antique and auction specialist Lanes & Co has set up a “gem of a base” in Newcastle city centre. A prominent player in the industry, founder and managing director Casey Lane is at the helm of the “prestigious” operation.

With an established international client base and presence in Hatton Garden, London, the heart of the jewellery and diamond merchant industry, the team have established a “reputable stake” in the market. Casey and the team bring their specialist knowledge to the heart of Newcastle with the new opening on Shakespeare Street.

From Rolex to Lladró to Fine Jewellery, Lanes & Co offer different outlets to buy and sell high-end luxury goods including its website and social platforms as well as specialist auctions. With a reputation for a bespoke service guaranteed, the specialist team will also offer valuations for both professional and personal use.

Casey Lane, founder and managing director at Lanes & Co, commented: “I’m absolutely delighted to introduce Lanes & Co to the North East bringing elements I have picked up throughout my work in regions including Hatton Garden, London.

“The response from the North East B2B community in particular has been amazing. Building relationships is a key ethos at Lanes & Co and we are really looking forward to further developing our network and working on a host of exciting collaborations across the region.”

Casey, who is also business manager and head of sales at Swan & Co, which sits under their portfolio and is an outlet for creating bespoke jewellery and sourcing goods from luxury designer pieces to luxury watches, has “injected a huge amount of passion, enthusiasm and innovation” into the new business.

Casey brings her expertise and a specialist team, who provide valuations for various purposes and can be carried out on large collections down to a single item.

Casey added: “When the lockdown hit, we needed to refocus and redefine avenues to still keep the businesses operating under the restrictions. The switch to online auctions was a game changer for business and elevated our reach globally.

“We now work across the international sphere and on an array of exciting commissions and are currently in liaison with clients in Dubai and trying to capture the new exciting markets across there.

“My goal is to provide each and every client with an array of options when buying and selling luxury goods to ensure they choose the right one for them. Alongside our day-to-day services our ethos is to build a community that clients can enjoy.”
