Let's go backwards to go forwards...

As this little blog is pretty well brand new, I have missed posting about an exciting adventure earlier in the year!
Wayyy back in September I was invited as one of twelve international silversmiths to exhibit at Inhorgenta 2011 at the special stand Forum Silversmiths - very exciting!
And so after some mad making time over the New Year I packed my bags and headed for Munich in February… 



Inhorgenta is the largest international Trade Fair for Jewellery, Watches, Design, Gemstones and Technology.. and it certainly didn’t disappoint. SIX exhibition halls full of everything you could imagine related to jewellery – from precious stones and tools to multi-national companies and university stands – they had it all! It was absolutely incredible!
Here are some pics of the stand I was part of…



There was a great mix of silversmiths including Olivia Lowe (UK), Koichi IO (KOR), Marit Bindernagel (DE), Corinna Loelgen (DE), Sabine Zimmermann (DE), Thalen & Thalen (BEL), Helena Schepens (BEL).

I also had some pieces in an exhibition Table Culture within the trade fair (and right next to the Forum Silversmith stand). It was beautifully set up and decorated by Sigrun Hohl with delicate porcelain pieces from Porzellan Manufaktur Nymphenburg.  That's my little silver Sake Set on show below!



More stories from Germany to come soon!
