The Ultimate Guide to Grillz in the UK (2025 Edition)
By Glider Jewels – London’s Luxury Custom Jeweller
Introduction: Grillz in UK Culture
Grillz are more than just jewellery – they’re a statement. Born in the hip-hop scene of the 1980s and made famous by icons like Nelly, Lil Wayne, and Beyoncé, grillz have since crossed oceans and found a permanent place in UK culture. Today, they’re not just a fashion accessory – they’re a way to express individuality, status, and style.
In London, the heart of UK streetwear and music culture, grillz have become a defining piece of jewellery for artists, creatives, and anyone wanting to stand out. At Glider Jewels, we specialise in crafting custom grillz in the UK – luxury designs made with gold, diamonds, and bespoke detailing, all fitted perfectly to your smile.
The History of Grillz
From New York to London
Grillz first emerged in the American hip-hop scene, particularly in New York and Atlanta. By the early 2000s, they were everywhere in rap music videos, representing wealth, success, and identity.
In the UK, the rise of grime, drill, and UK rap brought grillz into mainstream fashion. Artists like Skepta, Stormzy, and Central Cee have all been spotted wearing custom sets, making grillz a key part of London’s jewellery and streetwear crossover.
Today, grillz aren’t limited to music artists – they’ve become a fashion staple across the UK for anyone who wants a bold, luxury look.

Natural vs. Lab-Grown Diamonds in Grillz
When choosing diamond grillz, one of the biggest decisions is whether to go for natural or lab-grown diamonds. Both are 100% real diamonds – the difference lies in their origin. Natural diamonds are formed over billions of years beneath the earth’s surface, making them rare and highly prized. Lab-grown diamonds, on the other hand, are created using advanced technology that replicates the natural process, offering the same sparkle, hardness, and beauty at a more accessible price point. At Glider Jewels, we offer both options, allowing you to choose between the exclusivity of natural stones or the value and sustainability of lab-grown diamonds, depending on your preference and budget.
