Join us for an incredible live demonstration where master goldsmith Philip Noakes transforms raw precious metal into an exquisite vessel right before your eyes.
Watch as Philip, a highly original and innovative artist, demonstrates his exceptional skill in traditional studio processes by creating a masterpiece live in celebration of Perth Design Week.
Philip Noakes is one of Australia's most respected contemporary jewellers, goldsmiths, and silversmiths. Trained as a master craftsman at Sir John Cass College in London, his work reflects forty years of expertise with precious metals and stones. Each piece he creates tells a story, revealing the symbolism, properties, and transformations of these materials. Philip is the only Fellow of the Institute of Professional Goldsmiths, UK, in Australia, and one of just 170 worldwide.
Don't miss this unique opportunity to see a master at work and experience the art of goldsmithing up close.
