BISHOPSLAND EDUCATIONAL TRUST
Integrity in Making. Wholeheartedly
Training and education in the craft of silversmithing
We have quietly nurtured the careers of over 200 silversmiths and jewellers over the last 30 years, the vast majority of whom have gone on to develop sustainable businesses in the UK. Today, our society of Fellows are some of the foremost craftspeople in their field. They continue to pass their skills on to others and contribute to maintaining excellence within Britain’s craft, trade and industry.
