The metalwork in the collection is largely by British or German makers, many of whom retailed their work at Liberty & Co. The collection includes some items that had been inherited by Sir Colin and Lady Anderson.

Liberty & Co�s policy of not crediting individual designers sometimes makes it difficult to identify the work of specific makers. However, there are two examples of Archibald Knox�s Tudric ware in the Collection. Tudric ware was introduced by Liberty & Co as a more affordable alternative to the highly successful Cymric range of jewellery and silverware.
