About this Item

Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice book in great condition. Pages in excellent condition. Images are beautiful bright and vivid. Spine has a crease from over opening but otherwise the book looks little used. No notes or highlighting. See images. Fantastic book. About the book >.>.> Silver and gold have been used in Scotland to make beautiful and valuable vessels and ornaments for thousands of years. However, it is not until the 16th century that the makers of individual objects can be identified, because of the marks that appear on them from this date. These hallmarks can Indicate who made a piece, where and when. The first law enforcing hallmarking in Scotland dates to 1458; this publi- cation and the stunning exhibition at the National Museums Scotland celebrates its anniversary by bringing together, for the first time, a spectacular array of Scottish silver, from the earliest marked pieces right up to the present day. Drawing from the Museum's incomparable collections, and from important public and private collections across the country and beyond, the development of the craft of the goldsmith throughout Scotland is charted. This book also explains why hallmarks he.
