Hiho Silver, a distinguished name in the rural and equestrian jewellery market, is celebrating 30 years of business and is proud to share its remarkable journey from a simple idea to a beloved brand cherished by country enthusiasts. Hiho Silver is not just a business; it is a testament to Emma Warren and Andrew Ransford’s shared passion for equestrian life, rural traditions, and expert craftsmanship.
Hiho Silver have recently announced a stunning 30th anniversary collaboration with Stevenson Brothers who are renowned for creating beautiful rocking horses. Through this collaboration, there will be the opportunity to win a grey rocking horse, the inspiration for which came from Andrew’s own horse, Brian. This charming piece is hand-painted, mounted on an oak stand with a classic blend of traditional and modern style to fit with many interior settings.
Emma, with her background in marketing and communications, brings a creative touch to the brand, ensuring that each piece not only tells a story but also resonates with the equestrian community. Andrew is a seasoned horseman with years of experience in the equestrian trade, providing invaluable insight into what works best for those who live and breathe the countryside. Many in the industry know Andrew as ‘King of the road’, in his role as Shows Manager for the many events that Hiho Silver attend throughout the season. Not only do Hiho Silver have tradestands at these events, for many of them, they sponsor the ‘Best Dressed’ award for the trop up. It is through this spectacle that Andrew and Emma can absorb the evolving fashion trends, while combining it with the practicality of being around horses.
Managing Director, Emma Warren says, “Hiho Silver began upon the realisation of the need for high-quality, stylish and affordable jewellery that reflected the unique spirit of rural life. Our team’s combined expertise has enabled us to design collections that are not only beautiful but also functional - crafted with the durability needed to withstand rural life – to be worn day in, day out; from mucking out, to going out. From the iconic Snaffle Bracelet to the Sterling Silver Stirrup Necklace, each piece aims to marry the elegance of traditional equestrian motifs with contemporary fashion trends.”
As Hiho Silver celebrates its 30th year and continues to grow, Emma and Andrew remain committed to the original vision of creating beautiful, meaningful jewellery that celebrates the rural lifestyle and serves the equestrian community. With new collections on the horizon and an ever-growing presence in the equestrian world, Hiho Silver is well placed to continue its journey as a beloved brand that embodies the spirit of the countryside.
