Robert Hennell
Robert Hennell was a prominent English silversmith and jewelry designer who worked in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Hennell was born into a family of silversmiths and apprenticed with his father before establishing his own workshop in London in 1773.
Hennell was known for his high-quality silverware, but he also created many beautiful jewelry pieces, including necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. His designs were often inspired by the classical motifs of ancient Greece and Rome, and he was known for his exquisite attention to detail and fine craftsmanship.
Some of Robert Hennell's most famous designs include a gold and enamel bracelet with floral motifs that is now part of the Victoria and Albert Museum's collection, and a gold and agate pendant necklace that was sold at auction for over $150,000.
