Silver & Metalwork of the 20th Century: The Margo Grant Walsh Collection closes on Saturday, November 12. The exhibition features over 185 items of silver and metalwork from this unparalleled private
collection. Works from eight countries span the Arts and Crafts Movement to Scandinavian and contemporary UK designs.
Walsh began collecting silver on a whim and considers herself a self-educated collector. Today, her collection consists of over 2,000 objects, all of which she collected based on their beauty, functionality, and good design. With a background in architecture and interior design, she has amassed a globally significant collection.
