Partridge opens a Refined New store in the Heart of Auckland
With over 160 years of heritage behind it, Partridge, New Zealand’s oldest family-owned jeweller, unveils its most considered space yet: a dedicated diamond and jewellery boutique at 80 Queen Street. Intimate, elegant and richly layered, the new flagship presents a fresh chapter for the brand while honouring its enduring legacy in craftsmanship and design.
Auckland’s CBD is no stranger to Partridge, but this opening signals a subtle evolution. Unlike its neighbouring watch boutiques, this new space is solely devoted to jewellery, offering clients a focused and immersive experience. Inside, plush interiors by designer Hannah Davies (also behind the brand’s Queenstown location) create an atmosphere of quiet luxury. Timber detailing, soft textures and Partridge’s signature green tones offer a contemporary interpretation of classic elegance, echoing the tactile beauty of the jewellery on display.
The boutique showcases Partridge’s finest examples of diamond and gemstone craftsmanship, including styles available exclusively through the brand in New Zealand. From refined classics to bold statement pieces, the collection reflects a deep appreciation for natural stones and expert design. A dedicated engagement and wedding ring salon invites couples to explore both ready-to-wear and bespoke creations, crafted in collaboration with Partridge’s in-house artisans. It is a considered space for marking significant moments with meaning and care.
Managing Director Grant Partridge describes the new store as “a relaxed and elegant environment to discover our love for exceptional diamonds and fine jewellery.” That sentiment is evident throughout. There is a quiet confidence in the way the space has been conceived, as well as in the jewellery itself. The experience feels both personal and elevated, honouring the rituals of gifting, celebration and commitment.
In a time when provenance, craftsmanship and conscious luxury are more valued than ever, Partridge’s new Queen Street boutique offers something rare: a jewellery destination where history, artistry and design come together with clarity and intention. Partridge now operates five locations along lower Queen Street, in addition to boutiques in Newmarket, Wellington, Christchurch and Queenstown. The new store joins an impressive portfolio representing the world’s most sought-after watch and jewellery maisons, including Cartier, Rolex, Patek Philippe, Omega, Messika and more, alongside Partridge’s heritage-led collections defined by timeless style and enduring quality.
