Alasdair Craig left school when he was just sixteen and had no real idea
exactly what he wanted to do. He only had a couple of basic qualifications in
English and art. It was not looking good. But Alasdair was lucky. He landed an
apprenticeship with a firm of jewellers in Cambridge called Cellini and has
since become a virtuoso diamond setter – one of the best in the country.
Alasdair now produces jewellery worth well over 20,000 euros. It is all part of
a very exclusive business. This film follows Alasdair as he shows what it takes
to make some of the best jewellery in the world. Alasdair is so good he won a
leading national award for vocational training.
Part of 6 x 25-minute documentary series produced for the BBC. These films
can be bought individually or as a series. |
