SUMMARY:Goldsmiths’ Fair 2021
DESCRIPTION:Goldsmiths’ Fair is an annual selling event and exhibition showcasing a curated selection of work by some of the best fine jewellers and contemporary silversmiths creating and making in the UK today. It is widely regarded as an essential stop in the international fine jewellery and contemporary silver events calendar. \nThe Fair has taken place at the magnificent Goldsmiths’ Hall\, one of London’s hidden treasures\, since 1982. All Fair exhibitors use exceptional handmaking skills to create their pieces\, applying techniques that have been passed down over hundreds of years. Visitors can expect to find beautiful\, handmade pieces all containing an element of precious metal. Behind every piece is a unique story and a unique artist. \nThe emerging and established makers exhibiting at Goldsmiths’ Fair are chosen through a rigorous selection process which ensures the highest standards of both materials and craftsmanship. And each year up to ten graduate bursary places are awarded to support new talent. \nThis year’s event has both in person and online elements including some interesting (free) sessions in the Talks Programme. \n
