Earlier this month our apprentice Sam Bowles completed his apprenticeship and was made a Freeman of The Goldsmiths' Company.

To end the apprenticeship, and mark the occasion, he had to present a masterpiece to the Court of Wardens with his Master, Dave Merry.  

Sam made a silver vase based on a skull and a Day of the Dead theme with Steve Wager.
