Spotlight on Séamus Gill!
Description
Craft NI Gallery are delighted to welcome renowned Irish silversmith Séamus Gill as a guest maker!
Séamus Gill is recognised as one of Ireland's leading silversmiths - all his work is about the joy of working directly with the material, using a hammer and anvil to transform a flat sheet of silver or bronze using traditional age-old silversmithing skills.
This festive season, both his 'Golden Twist' and the 'Silver Twist' collections are available in the Gallery; based on reinterpreting the shape and form of the ancient Irish gold ribbon torcs, each piece is formed using similar techniques to the bronze-age smiths with the working marks of the hammer blows remaining as gentle ripples on the polished silver surface.
Stop by to admire the craftmanship and beauty of these pieces, and follow us on socials to keep up to date with our opening hours during the festive season!
