Fleur Grenier was first introduced to pewter when studying at Sir John Cass Department of Art, Media and design, London Metropolitan University. She soon recognised the potential of this traditional material and was drawn to its warm, tactile quality. She went on to specialize in pewter at The Royal College of Art. She is now an established and well-respected pewtersmith who runs courses from her workshop in West Sussex and exhibits throughout the UK. Fleur has won several awards for her work and became a Freeman at The Worshipful Company of Pewterers in 2009.
