Notes
Smith & Pepper was established by Charles Smith (1867-1933) and his uncle Edwin Pepper (1858-1935) in Birmingham in 1899. After going out of business in 1981 their premises at Vyse Street were left untouched, allowing the factory and buildings to be later acquired by the Birmingham City Council and converted into the Museum of the Jewellery Quarter.
