Gilbert Collection

Gilbert Collection

This superb collection of gold, silver, micromosaics and gold boxes, given to the nation by the late Sir Arthur Gilbert in 1996, has moved from Somerset House to the Victoria and Albert Museum.

The Gilbert Collection is one of the most important collections of works of art ever gifted to Britain and it is appropriate that it has found its long-term home in the world's largest and finest museum of decorative arts.
