About Richard and Serena Fox
Richard and Serena Fox's shared passion for contemporary design, exquisite craftsmanship and an endless fascination with precious metals has always served as a constant source of inspiration, driving them to craft objects that commemorate every facet of celebration. A trained silversmith, Richard became a Freeman of the Goldsmiths’ Company in 1989 and a Liveryman in 2005. Jewellery designer Serena Fox became a Freeman in 2012 and a Liveryman in 2024. Richard has served on the Court of Assistants since 2011 and in 2020, as the 693rd Prime Warden. He became the Company's first Trade Warden in 2020.

Together they run Fox Silver, one of the foremost design led manufacturing silversmithing workshops operating today, employing some ten full time staff and a wide range of specialist subcontractors.
