ARGENTUM COLLECTION
The future of GARRIDO is full of possibilities. As we celebrate 70 years of history, the brand continues to explore new forms of artistic expression. On this path, GARRIDO remains a beacon for the preservation of silversmithing as an artistic craft. At the same time, the brand is developing a project to strengthen its commitment to the survival of traditional artistic crafts in Spain — particularly silversmithing and goldsmithing — which have been recognized as crafts of world heritage.
To bring this remarkable project to life, we have invited some of the most renowned designers and artists in the fields of contemporary art and design to create a collection of silver objects, each to be crafted in the GARRIDO workshop. Their artistic visions will be interpreted by our master silversmiths and transformed into design objects made of sterling silver. Each piece will be developed using the traditional silversmithing techniques practiced in our workshop, following the parameters and guidance of the invited artists.
The resulting collection comprises nine silver pieces, each produced in a limited edition of eight, under the supervision and direction of the participating artists and designers: Peter Marino, Ross Lovegrove, Ghada Amer, Nacho Carbonell, and Estudio Campana. Each has created a piece that faithfully reflects their artistic language and personal style, while embracing the spirit and requirements of this unique collaboration.

PRESENTATION AT DESIGN MIAMI 2025
Our exhibition at Design Miami 2025 is a retrospective of the transformation of silversmithing, from reflecting the past to envisioning the future, ensuring its relevance for future generations.
For this reason, the first collection by Damian Garrido and some of his most representative works are showcased. There are also works by Juan and Paloma Garrido, including some of their most important pieces (as examples of how one can evolve toward a more sculptural concept without losing functionality). The exhibition concludes with the presentation of Argentum, featuring works by Nacho Carbonell, Ross Lovegrove, Ghada Amer, Campana Estudio, and Peter Marino.
