Jon Braganza

Jon Braganza


Born in London, Jon spent most of his childhood at school in India and was influenced to a large degree by the arts and crafts of South Asia. In particular he enjoys the form and style of Indo-Tibetan silver and art.

Jon trained as a silversmith with Vincent Ashworth, a graduate of the Harrow School of arts. Vincent's love of the hand crafted item is reflected in Jon's work as well.

Jon's belief is that his work should be functional, handcrafted, pleasing to the eye and elegant. He is registered as a silversmith in the UK.

In addition to his silversmithing, Jon and his wife Christine are in the antiques business. Dealing mainly in silver they trade from The Magistrates Market, an antique centre in Pontefract.
