Catalogue Note
Rey Urban founded "Silversmeden Rey Urban" while studying at the Swedish Royal College of Arts, Crafts and Design in 1950. Rey was awarded his master certificate as a silversmith in 1955, and over the years, his work has won acclaim at various exhibitions in Sweden and abroad. Rey Urban's beautiful designs fuse classical craftsmanship with contemporary techniques. All manufacturing still takes place in-house and the business remains in the family to this day.
