NOTE
Probably one of the most original and creative voices of 20th century silver making, the Geelong born Stuart Devlin rose to prominence when he won the 1964 competition to design Australia's new decimal currency. He set up a design studio in London in the same year and at the height of his career, employed some 60 craftspeople in his studio. A prolific designer across a range of disciplines he developed new and distinctive silver and gold making techniques such as bark and filigree work. Much lauded and honoured, in 1982 he was granted the Royal Warrant of Appointment as Goldsmith and Jeweller to Queen Elizabeth II.
