An A–Z of metalwork
With a collection as vast and varied as Metalwork at the V&A, where do you begin? Here's an alphabetical run-down of some beautiful, quirky, ingenious, dangerous and, quite frankly, scary objects to get you started.
The V&A has 295 works related to Elkington & Co..
Made between 1439 and 2005, these objects form part of the Metalwork Collection, Sculpture Collection and South & South East Asia Collection. We hold work made from copper, gold and silver.
