This is a fully illustrated catalogue, by two of Ireland’s foremost
specialists in Irish silver, of the permanent exhibition of some 500 pieces
of Irish silver, dating from c. 1500 to the present day, on display in the
Museum of Decorative Arts and History, Collins Barracks. As such, it will be
the definitive work on the national collection of late medieval to modern
silver. In addition to a catalogue of all the objects on display, the text
deals with such topics as the organisation and control of the goldsmith’s
craft and silversmithing techniques, as well as providing tables of Dublin
hallmarks and a full catalogue of Irish makers’ marks. Published in association with the National Museum of Ireland |
