When Sheffield ruled the world or at least afternoon tea. An exploration of the wide range of cutlery and flatware produced in Sheffield and used by the Victorians to eat a wide range of foods. They were very fond of pickle, asparagus, sardines and sugar and the items l will showcase will reflect this. I also have a number of mystery items that no one in Sheffield knows what they are for .
I worked as a teacher and lecturer in Sheffield , becoming the advisor for Vocational Education in the Council . On retirement l started to volunteer at The Hawley Collection, based at Kelham Island, l have been successful with two lottery projects Name on a Knife blade and Sheffield Treasures . l love Sheffield and celebrating what it made and still makes .
