George Septimus Payne inherited the Abingdon shop in 1874, but 14 years later decided to move to Oxford. Payne & Son started trading in Oxford 1889 and has been at 131 High Street ever since. The 7th and 8th generations of Paynes now run the family business. Today, Payne & Son specialises in giftware including christening gifts, cultured pearls, gold and silver jewellery, and is a major stockist of Georg Jensen.

Lovely shop, nice jewellery and very friendly staff. My friend was getting married in the town hall around the corner and had a wedding ring emergency and we went to Andrew for help and he went above and beyond to solve our problems so that the wedding could go ahead and he wouldn't even accept any money for what he did. Such kindness. We really appreciated his help and highly recommend anyone to pop in the shop to take a look around!
