Orfebre is an exhibition of work by artists Georgie Brooks and Juan Castro, who have come together to explore the threads of history, finding inspiration in cultures of the world that span back thousands of years.
Orfebre is the Spanish translation for ‘goldsmith’, a word that encapsulates the many skills, techniques and knowledge of this ancient craft. This beautiful body of work references a cross section of ancient cultures, from the mysterious Bronze Age, to the Viking Era, and the ceremony of Spanish Catholicism.
Featured above are the ‘Santa Irene’ earrings in solid 9ct yellow gold and red garnets by Juan Castro.
