Series format
editThe show format is similar to The Great British Bake Off in that each episode features challenges which to be completed within a certain time period. The series starts with eight jewellers, with one being eliminated each episode. In the Best Seller challenge, the judges ask the jewellers to create specific jewellery, meeting certain criteria, with a view towards marketability. In the Bespoke Brief, the jewellers are given a request from a member of the public to design and create a specific item, with that person then making a selection from the various items made.
