The Jewellery Quarter is an area in the centre of Birmingham, United Kingdom, located to the north-west of the centre Birmingham, which has about 19000 inhabitants within its 1.07 square kilometres (264 acres) of land. The Jewellery Quarter is the largest concentration of businesses involved in jewellery trading in Europe, producing 40% of all jewellery made in the United Kingdom. It is also the location of the largest assay office in the world, marking about 12 million items annually.

Historically, the jewellery quarter has been home to many of the innovative advances in industry. At its height in the early 1900s, over 30,000 people worked in the Jewellery Quarter, however, due to overseas competition and a lack of demand, the industry declined during the 20th century.

It has been transformed into a town centre and a creative hub, while maintaining its townscape. Its historic significance has led to a number of preservation schemes, and is the anchor point for the European Industrial Heritage Route.

A survey from 1553 identified one of the earliest Birmingham goldsmiths, Roger Pemberton. Many of the great glass foundries and workshops attracted workers from every part of England.

A significant trade developed in the making of gilded buttons, badges for caps, pins, and small metal toys. According to a Directory of Birmingham from 1780, 26 goldsmiths were operating at this time. By the beginning of the 19th century, it is thought there were about 12 companies making jewelry, with about 400 workers.
