A real delight to visit (September 8-24), Birmingham City University’s School of Jewellery delivered an exceptionally strong body of work which really stretches the once traditional view of jewellery and silversmithing. The MA Jewellery, Silversmithing and Related Product Course offers creative diversity, exploring techniques and processes that continue to push the boundaries in both traditional and contemporary craftsmanship.
