SWANS

Comyns’ life-sized swan is a spectacular example of its skills in interpretative silversmithing. Assembled from some fifty separate pieces, each feather is individually chased to emphasize and enhance the swan’s contours, resulting in one of the most serene sculptural pieces in the Comyns collection. A centrepiece in its own right, the swan also functions as a serving dish or as a display for flowers.
