Courtney Davis
Recently returned from the Ireland Show in USA to his studio in Dorset and the Gallery of Secrets, owned by Peter Stone Jewellery, the producer of magnificent sterling silver and gold faerie Jewellery and Courtney Davis, world famous Celtic artist Courtney Davis and author of over 50 books on the subject published over the last thirty years, is considered the greatest living authority on Celtic Art in modern times. He speaks enthusiastically about the ever increasing demand for his work, surprised at the prices some of his originals previously held in private collections are fetching now at auction, it is evident that the upsurge of interest by over 38 million Americans with Irish ancestry searching for their Celtic roots and the folklore that surrounds their origins of their families is pushing the demand for Courtney’s work as highly desirable and into important collections throughout the USA. ” I have so much to do and just not enough time ” is how Courtney summed it up , clearly a man whose original work is in greater demand than ever. I asked him about the new licensing and manufacturing deals that I had heard about with a major fashion house and airline but it seems for the moment he was not ready to divulge too much information. It seems we are going to see a lot more of Courtney’s work in the Celtic boom ahead.
