Paul de Lamerie and the Maynard Master

V&A South Kensington
Room 66
Cromwell Road
London SW7 2RL

Until May 2010

The silver shown here is associated with de Lamerie's most brilliant craftsman, whose identity is still a mystery, who worked from 1737 to 1745. He is known as the Maynard Master, named after the dish made for Grey, 5th Baron Maynard now in the Cahn family collection. Other masterpieces marked by de Lamerie are from the collection of Sir Arthur Gilbert.
