Mark Worthington Celebrate 30 Years In Business Mark Worthington Jewellers recently celebrated 30 years in business in Cheshire, holding a Christmas Anniversary party for their customers at MW2, their ‘Home of Affordable Luxury’ in Wilmslow. Stilt walkers and fire breathers greeted arriving guests who were also treated to a special Christmas discount on the evening, free flowing champagne and endless canapés as a thank you for their loyalty over the years. Tis event was also a way to showcase to their customers their New Georg Jensen room, located upstairs in MW2, stocking jewellery, watches and living, the three core collections by the Scandinavian luxury lifestyle brand. New additions to the collections were on show, including strawberry pickers, oyster trays, tissue box covers and candelabras. We were especially taken aback by the fantastic Grand Champagne Bowl, manufactured in stainless steel, which holds three bottles of Champagne at once. Perfect for a dinner party or celebration! Mark Worthington Jewellers has also taken part in the Wonderful Wilmslow Winter Wander Round, consisting of a gingerbread man hunt for the local community. Teir gingerbread man, Alfie, was happy nestled in to a jewellery cabinet downstairs, waiting for the children to spot him! Parents were then treated to an after party at Revolution Wilmslow, with MW2 cocktails and fantastic artists performing until late. All in all, a fantastic night was had by all.
