Famous the world-over for his technically superb and delicate silver vessels, Odilon Marmolejo has worked in the medium since the age of 14. In his Mexico City workshop, he and the artists in his workshop use such varied techniques as rolling, molding hammering, lost wax, engraving, die-stamping and repoussé. Building upon generations of silversmithing, Odilon has built upon the tradition and with unmatched beauty in design and technical virtuosity, created a distinctive personal style.
