OUR WORKSHOP
It is impossible not to have a reaction to our workshop!
Many people are shocked that the beautiful things we make can be created in such surroundings, and not found fully formed, wrapped in velvet, in a shop in Bond Street. Others return again and again attracted to the elemental power of a place where things are made.
HISTORY OF OUR WORKSHOP
London has a rich history as a centre of precious metal working. We are aware of the debt we owe to those who taught us and enjoy being part of a very exciting future.
SIREN
It started with an offhand comment ‘’So just how large can you guys work?’’ from customer Marc Quinn, and ended with the largest gold sculpture made since antiquity. From over a thousand images taken these few give some idea of what was involved.
MICHAEL VICKERS JUG
For a man who has long championed the importance of precious metal in history, an up to date Roman silver Jug. We learned a lot making it.
PALLADIUM CUP
Gold and silver have been hallmarked for centuries. Platinum was granted a hallmark in 1975. Palladium in 2009. To celebrate this Nigel Israel commissioned a cup to bear the new marks. This is how we made it.
'Thank you so much for everything connected with this present, your enthusiasm and your quite extraordinary workmanship'
