Before starring on the final show of UKs top show X-Factor in 2009, Jamie Afro (real name Jamie Archer) visited Thorn Jewellery’s Shop in London to be fitted out in a Stephen Webster necklace specially for his final appearance in the last show of the series.  Cool and charming as ever, Jamie looked just the part.  A true rock star of the future.

Mark Ungar, Thorn Jewellery’s Sales & Marketting Director was over the moon to be giving the Stephen Webster Necklace to Archer commenting “Watching the show, Jamie always came across as the real deal and not some sickly sweet manufactured pop act that the X-Factor is sometimes criticised for. It’s therefore particularly fitting that of all the stars of the show, it’s Jamie that we most love to see wearing our jewellery”

Mentoring the winner of X-Factor 2009, Cheryl Cole gifted a Shaun Leane silver men’s charm necklace to top act Joe Mcelderry. Necklace is the men’s jewellery luxury fashion item of choice for 2010, and at Thorn Jewellery we are proud to be stockists of the best designer ranges online.  Almost certainly we can offer you a superb X-Factor necklace style of your choosing.
