Patrick Mavros opens Christmas Safari at London flagship

Patrick Mavros and his son invite collectors and jewellery enthusiasts to the London flagship for Christmas Safari, a seasonal gathering that celebrates the studio’s year of new creations and the stories behind them. Held across four days in mid November at 104 to 106 Fulham Road, the event marks a moment of reflection and festive magic in the handcrafted jewellery calendar.

The Snake Collection emerges as the centrepiece of this year’s celebration, a body of work that demonstrates the rigorous craftsmanship and naturalistic observation that define the studio’s practice. Each piece carries the distinctive energy of work made in Africa, where the design process begins with observation of the landscape and its creatures, then develops through the hands of skilled artisans working in bronze, precious metals and gemstones.

The wax room, where pieces begin their journey from concept to finished form, opens its doors to visitors during the event. The studio’s approach to jewellery making remains rooted in a direct, almost tactile relationship with materials and technique. Bronze pieces are cast and refined by hand, while the precious metal work shows the precision of work that has been refined across decades of practice.

Beyond the Snake Collection, new pieces and established favourites will be on display, offering a glimpse into how the studio draws from African wildlife, botanical forms and the visual language of the continent. The Christmas Safari format itself reflects a philosophy of storytelling through objects, each piece a narrative of craft and observation.

The London flagship opens from 11am to 6pm across 11 to 14 November 2026. Those wishing to attend are encouraged to visit during these hours to experience the new work and the environment in which it is created.
