At the heart of the exhibition is The Goldsmiths’ Company’s role as patron of contemporary studio silver. This guild, situated in the City of London, has supported the craft of gold and silversmithing for more than 700 years. Today it has a world-renowned collection of British silver and commissions exceptional creative work each year.

The Goldsmiths' Company has been a very important supporter of my work and career and it is a great honour to have my work included in this exhibition that includes so many wonderful and creative pieces of art made by an incredible array of artist silversmiths.
