To accompany the exhibition, a new catalogue of French silver from the Ardennes has been produced by Dr. Thierry Mulette, a private collector who had done extensive, pioneering research into silver from the region, filling a gap in our knowledge of this provincial area of France. Over 90% of the known silver from the Ardennes is represented in the exhibition.

Catalogue:
Mulette, Thierry. L’Orfèvrerie dans les Ardennes: deux siècles de vermeil et d’argent. Somogy Éditions d’art. 35€

Thanks JayT fo this announcement.

The exhibition ended, but a precision regarding exhibition catalogue :
- Stricto sensu, 2024-25 exhibition's catalogue is : Thierry Mulette, L'orfèvrerie des Ardennes. Une génération de découvertes au musée de l'Ardenne, 2024.
- To some extend, this 2024 catalogue can be considered as a 2nd part of a 2001 publication : Thierry Mulette & Solange Brault-Lerch, 'L'orfèvrerie des Ardennes, deux siècles de vermeil et d'argent : Charleville, Mézières, Rethel, Sedan, Givet, Mouzon, Rocroi, Paris : Somogy, 2001.
