At Taylor & Hart we develop designs that capture exactly how you feel and express what words alone simply can’t. We believe that bespoke jewellery that symbolises your story should be accessible to everyone because your love isnt ordinary. Why should your engagement ring be?
Led by your imagination, we work to ensure your ring is beautifully designed, perfectly crafted and discreetly delivered to your preferred address or collected from our showroom.
Our centre diamonds are graded by the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and International Gemological Institute (IGI) and we guarantee that all of our diamonds and gemstones are ethically sourced. Each ring is uniquely designed, hallmarked and hand-finished in London.
We’re always available at www.taylorandhart.com - our online home where you can read more about who we are, our designers, policies, and guarantees.

Popsa is a startup building generative AI technology that automates the creation personalised products for consumers all over the world. The company is developing AI agents that generate designs for artefacts such as photo books, based on the data contained in photos, therefore removing countless anxieties and manual tasks usually associated with personalisation, and empowering everyday people with professional storytelling techniques for the first time.
Its existing award-winning app has made printing memories so easy and accessible that anyone can do it. As a result, the company receives 18,000 orders every week, increasing to 80,000 during Q4.
Popsas native iOS and Android apps are available in 12 languages – attracting more than 8 million users to date – and they ship to 50 countries around the world. Despite being headquartered in London, only 15% of Popsa’s revenue comes from the UK (France is the company’s top market whilst the US is the fastest growing).
People come to Popsa to create photobooks and other products, but what Popsa really does is help them process their lives and relationships through reflection on their photos.
The companys longer term ambition is to become a global destination for the curation of memories; a space to explore all of life’s moments and the emotions that come with them – not just the highlights. So holidays, but also lazy days and sad days too. Because Popsa believes the more you reflect, the better you understand yourself and your connections with others.

We’re experts in the science of sleep, constantly dreaming up new ways to make bedtime better. Our mission is to bring the importance of sleep back into focus, and help everyone wake up winning.
Speaking of which, we started with data from 10 million sleepers to create our award-winning mattress. Our product team spent an entire year - and over 70 prototypes - using that information to design a mattress that works for every body type. And we fine-tuned every inch, from smaller, lighter pocket springs made especially for us to a unique air-flow cooling layer that’s changed the game for overheating.
More than 1,000,000 sales later, our mattress has over 325,000 five-star reviews. That’s more than any other mattress-in-a-box in the World. And it’s given us a Excellent rating on TrustPilot. We’ve picked up a 90 sleep awards along the way.
We’ve teamed up with some amazing partners to make the dream work, as well. Like football star Gareth Bale. And we’re official sponsors of the UK’s premier rugby club, Saracens.
Our products are engineered with innovation in mind and real sleepers at heart. We’re insight-led, powered by technology and driven by our ambition to redefine how the world thinks about sleep.
