Expert Craftsmanship in Every Detail
Alastair Walker, Chief Creative Officer, links "The Scream" to the new collection. He says the original piece reflects anxiety. It inspired our focus on expressionism. We then added motion, color, and unique touches. The "Silver Scream" pieces are carefully made by skilled silversmiths in Asprey's London workshop. Afterward, master engravers hand-finish each item.

The Artistic Process Behind "Silver Scream"
Each piece in the "Silver Scream" collection is unique and costs $20,000. "This process captures our vision of 'Scream,'" Walker explains. "We will hand-block oxidize the physical pieces on sterling silver. They will be adorned with 'silver dust' from our polishing room. This will create a subtle patina that makes each one unique."
