Artist Statement for Albion Smith

Albion Smith is a native California jeweler and silversmith who has been working in this medium for the past 25 years.Personally attached to hand work,he forms, fabricates, and engraves each piece by hand.Often with design advice and assistance from his mate,Elissa Forsyth.He takes particular pleasure in creating functional jeweled objects that are made to be used rather than just displayed.Albion enjoys a feeling of connection to the pre-industrial craft makers.He has an almost religious commitment to hand craft and is, quite possibly, a fanatic.
