The store owner, Hanushka Toni said: ‘This is absolutely devastating for our business. 

‘We’ve spent the last five years building Sellier from the ground up amidst a challenging economic environment, and a £500,000 loss will be a huge hit on our business for months to come. 

‘I’m appealing for anyone who may have been in the area at the time or have any other information to please get in touch so we can hold those responsible.’ 

The store owner also took to social media to let tell any sellers who have had item taken will be fully reimbursed.

Ms Toni said: ‘I am absolutely speechless. We literally woke up to the worst news, in the middle of the night a gang of three men pulled up to one of our London stores.
