On a desk in his studio, Erwin Springbrunn kept a picture of the Sagrada Família by Antoni Gaudi (1852-1926), one of Spain’s most influential architects. It says much about one of Ireland’s most important master gold and silversmiths and gem stonecutters. The great Catalan architect, Gaudi was known to have achieved a particular vision of Gothic architecture. Springbrunn also brought his own highly individual interpretation to gemstone fine jewellery in its curvilinear forms.
