In 2001, the dedicated siblings participated together in a Spanish Silversmith<\/strong> course which they completed in Madrid. This academic and precious treasure chest of ancient knowledge made them aware of the evolution of styles within the history of silversmiths. They applied this know-how<\/strong> in the restoration field to repair antique pieces and later to design new creative yet functional artworks.<\/p>\n

After several years of specific training and of practice of the different techniques needed to be an expert<\/strong> working in silver, Juan and Paloma Garrido started their professional paths and extended their knowledge not only in the area of antique restoration<\/strong>, but also to bring to life new designs.<\/p>\n

Since their childhood, they have felt a natural attraction to silver<\/strong>. It was their father, the Master Dami\u00e1n Garrido (1931-2002), who cultivated in them the talent and love for the art, allowing the most ancient of the silversmith workshop traditions<\/strong> to prevail.<\/p>\n

He taught them to appreciate the meticulous and demanding nature of fine silver-making<\/strong>. They eventually were able to preserve this rare form of art, for which they have received numerous design prizes. Nowadays, they preserve the legend of their father by bringing to life their own creations, inspired in architectonic references and geometric elements. Following the footsteps of their father, Juan and Paloma are the second generation of silversmiths in the Garrido family. With the collaboration of other experts<\/strong> in their workshop, they brought this art to contemporary design<\/strong>, being renowned worldwide.<\/p>\n
