I worked at Connolly's from 1987-1994, working in the pattern department there on the old Wimbledon site. I was responsible for making up those same pattern books and looking after the historical pattern samples featured in this video along side Bob Perry the foreman. The department had a close working relationship with all the Connolly family making special one off pieces within the department for their clients from all over the world. I remember 'Mr Jonathan' very well, as this was how we had to address all the member's of the Connolly family with a 'Mr' before their first name. I remember when Jonathan was married I helped make his leather bound photo wedding album. I have very happy memories work there. Good to see Jonathan is still looking after this great historic company.
