EMILY DILL- Silver Wares Jewelry
A "twist" on traditional Silver by local artist, Emily Dill
Since 1995, Emily Dill has been changing the look of silverware by recycling it into jewelry and other interesting items. Being a self-taught metal smith has brought alot of trial & error.
Emily works from her studio in Lanexa, Virginia, where she keeps thousands of pieces of silver plate just waiting to created into something new. Emily takes several buying trips a year just to purchase silver ware and also has "pickers" that routinely send it to her.
"I make use of the past to create for the future." Emily Dill
