(fl. 1990)
We know virtually nothing about the enigmatic M.A. Chandler. Claire Lees, who has sold several examples of his work, believes that his name may have been Michael, but I haven’t been able to find any confirmation of that. Although his biography may be sparse, his work is highly regarded and more is being discovered all the time. I am extremely fond of our little dinner gong and would love any further information that anyone can provide about the artisan who made it. Please do get in touch if you can add any further colour to the picture!
Here are the works by Chandler in the Quartermaine Hall collection so far:
Dinner Gong
The perfect way to summon everyone to dinner, this little brass gong is by MA Chandler (2022.056)
