Gilded Beech-wood Cross
1967
Gilded Beech-wood Cross suspended over the central Altar in Churchill College Chapel, Cambridge and commissioned by The Goldsmiths’ Company. The brief asked for a three-dimensional Cross on account of its being placed at the centre of a square building. I resolved this by contriving a solid Cross in one plane, and a linear outline Cross of textured anodised aluminium in the second plane, at a right-angle to the Gilded Cross.
The whole construction is suspended on four piano-wires. Commissioned by The Goldsmiths’ Company together with four floor-standing wooden Candlesticks, also for The Chapel.

Lighting Efficiency Trophy
1967
Race Trophy awarded by OSRAM to the winning driver in the BARC Saloon Car Race Competition. The racing driver Hammond Innes presented the Trophy at a splendid event in the Grosvenor House Hotel.
The Trophy: (silver, supporting a silver-gilt and subtlely ovoid form and with a Base of Cumberland Green Slate (engraved by George Lukes).
Although originally made for The National Saloon Car Racing Championships, a few years later, the above Trophy was re-named by Osram-GEC Ltd. and then served as the Lighting Efficiency Trophy for The Lighting Industries Federation. Simplified, small keepsakes were also presented annually for several years.
