Art Pewter Silver
Art Pewter Silver was founded for the express purpose of introducing a new sense of purpose and pride of achievement into the lives of disabled ex-servicemen, by reviving the ancient art of the Scottish silversmith which for so long had lain dormant.
A Luckenbooth Brooch are so-called because they were sold from locked booths in the Royal Mile next to Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh. They are a romantic brooch and were traditionally exchanged between lovers on betrothal. The Crown represents Mary Queen of Scots.
Throughout the succeeding decades skilled craftsmen have continued to hand fashion authentic jewellery incorporating enduring Celtic designs. The art of the Celt is the only indigenous British art form of world significance, yet until relatively recently it has been largely ignored; regarded as something of a mysterious enigmatic survival.
