Edward has over 15 years experience in making and designing Silvers Jewellery.
His Jewellery workshop set is in the small harbour town of Skerries, North County Dublin.

He was introduced to the craft of Silversmithing by his Art teacher and her husband one of Wales leading silversmiths, Peter Cosslett.
He carried on his studies at NCAD in Dublin and graduated with Honours in 1999.

He has traveled around the world gaining valuable education and insights into the visual Arts of diverse cultures, both prehistoric and contemporary.

Since arriving in Ireland he has worked with some of the worlds leading Silversmiths, Jeweller’s and Bronze Sculptors before setting up his own workshop.
Wayland’s Forge also specialises in making awards and presentation pieces as well as limited edition small-scale silverware for everyday use in the home.

His style of Silversmithing relies on the use of specialist hammers and stakes, this is apparent in the finished pieces. The hammer marks remain visible on the surface of the metal. This gives them a tactile quality lacking in mass produced silverware.

Wayland’s Forge’s coffee spoons were selected for “Index 100” at “Showcase 2004” as being one of the shows top 100 new products.
