“It’s an incredible achievement,” Andrew said of his win.
“2013 has been another remarkable year for AG. I continue to design and create with the same intense passion and boundless energy with which I started.
“My aim has always been to create mesmerising designs at the very height of opulence and luxury, essentially putting my all into every piece and creating something which helps people to express their love.
“It’s my fanbase whose votes have got me this award and that is great to know because I put them at the forefront of everything I design.
“It’s hugely exciting times for AG at the moment as we look to begin exporting next year – making our international debut in Munich.

“We’ve also moved to a beautiful converted farm building in the middle of the Yorkshire country side – I have a feeling inspiration will be at an all time high once I’m surrounded by even more of our glorious landscape.”
Andrew, who moved to West Yorkshire when he was two years old, has developed his AG brand – an incredible collection of bridal jewellery, show-stopping cocktail rings, pendants and earrings – into one of the most sought after collections in the world.
