GILLIES MACKENZIE
Sheffield
The silver trade has lost another member whose death has caused a vacancy which will not be confined to any one firm. Mr. Gillies Mackenzie approximated more to the art workman of the Middle Ages than to the artisan of the present day. In his hands silver engraving was no mere trade — it was high art. Wherever perfection was desired and cost no object, Mr. Mackenzie's services were in requisition. His command over his tool was marvellous, and the conceptions of a highly educated intellect were reproduced faultlessly on the precious metal. It was no doubt all too good for the British public, and it did not pay a manufacturer to have recourse too often to Mr. Mackenzie's workshop. This sordid consideration brings us down to the level of everyday manufacturing industry, out of which, it is sad to reflect, the very highest class of workmen do not make much. Not a few, however, who possess specimens of Mr. Mackenzie's handiwork will appraise them at their true value and guard them accordingly.
