A piece of the only surviving dress worn by Queen Elizabeth I, Charles Dickens’ court suit, an RSC robe worn by David Tennant as Richard II, and the Coronation glove of Queen Elizabeth II are among the highlights of this exhibition.

Featuring over 200 items dating from the Middle Ages to the present day, many of them on display for the first time, Treasures of Gold and Silver Wire will present historical items and royal, military, ecclesiastical, and theatrical costumes, and fine examples of modern jewellery, silversmithing, and embroidery.

Treasures of Gold and Silver Wire celebrates the 400th anniversary of the ancient Livery Company, The Worshipful Company of Gold and Silver Wyre Drawers, and recognises how it has evolved over the last four centuries.
