Silver Society Prize for Silversmithing
Who can apply: Open to silversmiths working in the UK who are within the first five years of their career as practising silversmiths.
Deadline: Sunday 23 August 2026
The Silver Society supports scholarship, public appreciation, and professional practice centered on silver and other precious metals. Its giving is highly specialized, backing research, publications, museum/collections study, and contemporary silversmithing rather than broad arts or heritage work. The society appears to use its grants and prizes to recognize notable achievement and to help advance knowledge in the field, often through invite-only opportunities.
Invite-only grants, scholarships, and prizes with a strong emphasis on specialist research and recognition; support appears to be selective and program-specific rather than open, recurring general funding.
Expect an invite-only or nomination-based process rather than an open application portal. Applicants should align proposals closely with silver studies, precious-metal scholarship, museum/collections research, or contemporary silversmithing, and demonstrate clear academic, curatorial, or craft significance.
