Thomas L. Mott jewellery dates from 1875.   Thomas’s business was in the silver quarter of Birmingham, England.  He instigated the fashion for butterfly wing jewellery after exhibiting at the British Empire Exhibition of 1924, although some had been produced previous to this.  His company was the largest producer of butterfly wing jewellery in the 1920s and 1930s. The company also produced some lovely hand-painted jewellery items – mainly brooches and pendants which were painted by his own artists.

Thomas Mott’s company was eventually bought out by one of his competitors:  Shiptons & Co which are still in jewellery production today in their original premises.
