Storr is considered by many to be the greatest silversmith of his era and was the principal silversmith of Rundell, Bridge & Rundell, the Royal Jewelers and Silversmiths to their majesties George III, George IV and their extended families. Storr was renowned for his mastery of neoclassical design and symmetry, and he imparted into his beautiful, Greco-Roman-inspired works an unrivaled level of craftsmanship and quality.
