Personal Statement
The clean, subtle lines of Barry's work intrigue the eye time and time again. Traditional silversmithing skills fuse with contemporary design, which will last a lifetime. Sleek silver combined with age-old limestone and hand
carved lettering provides the perfect contrast. A range of stock pieces is always available and commissions are welcome. Recent clients include the Southwark Cathedral and the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers.
