Designer British Silver<\/em><\/strong> explores the designer-silversmiths who have shaped British silver from the 1950s through to the present day. Covering a complete generation of craftsmen and women, and featuring one-to-one interviews with key figures, the book reveals the people and forces behind the post-war renaissance that made Britain a centre of excellence for designer makers in silver.<\/p>\n
