Alan Wright studied three dimensional design at The Central School of Art and Design, London (now Central Saint Martin's College of Arts and Design) specialising in jewellery. He gained a first class honours degree and won the award of 'student of the year' for his degree exhibition.
Before moving to Poole in 2021, Alan worked for more than 30 years at his studio at Hatton Country World, Warwickshire, creating jewellery, small sculptures and pictures using gold, silver, bronze, titanium, slate and enamels. In the 1980s he was fortunate to be given a series of commissions to make silver dhows for a Middle Eastern agent and this enabled him to develop expertise in making complex three dimensional objects. He has also sold his jewellery at Liberty & Co and Electrum.
Alan is a freeman of The Goldsmiths' Company and the City of London.
