AN ELIZABETH II SILVER DISH

Alex Brodgen was born in 1954 and studied at the Royal College of Art. His works can be found in museum collections, such as the Sheffield Millennium Gallery, the Fitzwilliam and the Victoria and Albert Museum as well as many Livery and other companies as well as private collection. He was also commissioned to produce a pair of candelabra for Silver Trust which are currently on loan to 10 Downing Street. This dish can be compared to another, slightly later, example in the collection of the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths' (R. Ransome-Wallis, Treasures of the 20th Century, London, 2000, p. 104, no. 275).
