Arthur Penny

Arthur Penny was trained as a metalworker at Birmingham Municipal School of Art, and probably joined the Guild of Handicraft when it moved to Chipping Campden. He died in September 1906; in the preface to Modern English Silverwork (1909), C. R. Ashbee described him as a capable, conscientious and sensitive workman'. The Guild of Handicraft Trust has a small collection of his metalwork and jewellery, presented by his niece, Marian Penny.
