| Description | Location: Fairfax House
A display of gold & silver fish & cake servers essentials for Georgian dining.
Our first collaborative exhibition with the Victoria and Albert Museum starts with a display of gold and silver which includes the Rabinovitch collection.
Over 40 artists working in Britain were commissioned to produce works of art based upon the theme of fish and cake servers, essential items for the Georgian dining and tea tables.
The result is unique and a wonderful testament to the skill, design abilities and humour of these artist craftsmen.
