Bayreuth: A Connoisseur's Collection of English Silver and Gold Boxes

The philosophy that has driven the creation of the Bayreuth Collection has been one of quality, be it for condition, provenance, rarity or even novelty. It has been the collector’s passion for over 40 years.

It is evident that behind the collection there is an innate understanding of the imagination and the creative skill of the craftsman, and an erudite appreciation of its ownership, whether by a celebrated collector, such as William Beckford, or from a great country house; Chatsworth, Belvoir Castle, or Stowe House, to name but a few.

The collection has been formed under the disciplined and passionate eye of a collector with boundless energy and enthusiasm, allied with a scholarly curiosity to delve deeper into specialised fields. It is a reflection of true connoisseurship in its most enriching form.
