Andrew Grima (31 May 1921 26 December 2007) was a British Royal jewelry, designer and artisan. He became the foremost modern jewelry designer in the West End of London in the 1960s and 1970s, selling designs from his exclusive gallery on Jermyn Street. The name Grima gained recognition in fine jewelry following the 1961 Exhibition of International Jewelry. His distinctive jewelry designs, made from precious metals such as 18 carat gold and platinum worked into highly textured, organic and bold, seemingly random abstract shapes incorporating precious gemstones and were often copied in the late 1960s and 1970s. Pieces by Grima are often marked AG or Grima and are highly sought after by collectors.
