James Edgar Murdock came to South Africa from England in 1896 and decided to set up a jewellery business. In 1897 he opened Murdock's Watchmakers and Jewellers in a small shop on the corner of Parliament and Longmarket Streets in Cape Town.
Through the years, prominent customers of Murdocks have included Cecil John Rhodes, King George and Queen Frederika of Greece. |
Cecil John Rhodes, apparently declined to alight from his vehicle and make the short journey into the shop, but insisted instead that the shop come to him.
The best of South Africa and Africa's mineral wealth has been used to create pieces of rare beauty, with flawless diamonds set into the finest gold or platinum. |
