Dryad Metalworks

Set up in 1912 by Harry Peach and William Pick and producing metalwork in the Arts and Crafts tradition, Harry Peach was a friend of Benjamin Fletcher, the Headmaster of the Leicester School of Art. William Pick had been a pupil of Fletchers. The firm used many talented designers from the Leicester School of Art and I think they produced some lovely pieces.

There are door handles and then there are door handles.. these bronze handles were made by either Collins & Co or Dryad metal Works.
