On Wednesday 1st March 2022, at a ceremony held at Goldsmiths’ Hall in London, Judith Lockwood, founder and director of Mesmeric Distribution admitted into the Freedom of the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths.

Edinburgh-based jewellery designer, Maeve Gillies, was also among the eight individuals, including two apprentices, receiving the honour.

The Goldsmiths’ Company maintains at its core the original purposes for which it was established almost 700 years ago. It supports the craft and industry, protects consumers, assists with technical training of aspiring craftspeople, promotes excellence in the design and making of silverware, jewellery and art medals and works with charitable partners to help improve lives.

During the ceremony, in the presence of the Prime Warden Lord Bridges and the Court of Wardens, the new Freemen were reminded of their commitment to the Company and encouraged to engage with the Company in any way that they are able.
