Following
in the steps of his ancestors, Victor Azzopardi continues a long
line of family tradition in the art of Gold and Silversmithing
dating back to the 19th century.
His love for this
craft became evident early in his teenage years and this led him
to an apprenticeship with a well established Maltese master
craftsman in order to acquire the necessary techniques of
executing the work itself.
He
qualified after five years of service and obtained his licence
of gold and silversmith on the 2nd of January 1975,
together with his own mark “A V L”.
Victor Azzopardi
subsequently set up his own business, operating as a gold and
silver jewellery manufacturer, during which time he also sought
to perfect his skills by undergoing overseas training.
In 1988, Victor
Azzopardi expanded his business and acquired a limited liability
company status which operates under the name of Victor Azzopardi
Ltd., a name to which invaluable repute is attached and which,
in Malta, is synonymous to the goldsmith and silversmith
industry.
Today,
master craftsman Victor Azzopardi takes pride in introducing his
new collection, The Maltese Silver Collection ® which displays a
fantastic array of Maltese silver artefacts such as, amongst
others, Coffee Pots, Glove Trays, Chamber Candlesticks and Oil
Lamps in limited edition. Crafted by hand by Victor Azzopardi,
these unique pieces of timeless beauty are a must for any
earnest collector of fine adornments.
The Maltese Silver
Collection ® is a testimonial of true Maltese craftsmanship and
has become much sought after both locally and abroad.
