“Silver is a seductive, glamorous material and the centrepiece is one of its most wondrous uses.<\/h3>\n

Showstoppers at Temple Newsam, Leeds took two iconic centrepieces from our historic silver collection and presented them alongside contemporary masterpieces by artists Junko Mori and Miriam Hanid. The exhibition showcased the continuation and reinvention of traditional silversmithing techniques and celebrated women in silver, as makers and owners.\u201d – Rachel Conroy<\/p>\n

I love to explore different facets of the rich history of silver! In summer 2016 I was thrilled to learn that Rachel Conroy, the new curator of Temple Newsam, Leeds, wanted to showcase my chased Deluge Centrepiece for the exhibition Showstoppers: Silver Centrepieces<\/em> at the historic house in 2017.<\/p>\n

Watch the video about the making of a similar, smaller piece entitled Deluge below \u2013 filmed at Temple Newsam in 2017.<\/p>\n
