- This piece is part of the Royal College of Art Visiting Artists Collection. Every year from 1987 to 2006, while David Watkins was Professor of Goldsmithing, Silversmithing, Metalwork and Jewellery at the RCA, he invited four jewellers and silversmiths from outside Britain to give a week-long masterclass. The artists brought diverse skills, aesthetics and approaches. The first call on their time was to interact closely with the students. In addition, although concentrating on their teaching and working in an unfamiliar studio, each artist generously made an object for the RCA's collection. The Royal College of Art Visiting Artists Collection, now transferred to the V&A, is a major document of international contemporary jewellery, a tribute both to the artists and to the vibrancy of the RCA as a teaching institution.
This silver leaf is cast from nature as a preparatory study for the opal-set leaf ring also in the V&A's collection (M.29-2007). Life-size, the front has the natural texture and veining of the leaf while the back is rounded with a polished surface.
Jesus Elisabeth Kodré Defner (1931-2017) was born in Innsbruck and studied at the Academy of Applied Arts in Vienna. Nature is often an influence in her work.

- This album of watercolour drawings of traditional costume was compiled by Scottish artist David Allan when he was travelling through France and Italy between 1770-1776. However, the sixty-one watercolours are not merely records of costumes. Rather, they are small genre scenes with figures set in streets or landscapes and were painted in Rome, Florence, Naples and several other places that Allan visited on his European tour. The well-known art critic Brian Sewell, has described this album as "witty, mischievous and frankly pretty". The colours are in pristine condition and give a delightful glimpse of the lighter side of the Grand Tour.

- This album of watercolour drawings of traditional costume was compiled by Scottish artist David Allan when he was travelling through France and Italy between 1770-1776. However, the sixty-one watercolours are not merely records of costumes. Rather, they are small genre scenes with figures set in streets or landscapes and were painted in Rome, Florence, Naples and several other places that Allan visited on his European tour. The well-known art critic Brian Sewell, has described this album as "witty, mischievous and frankly pretty". The colours are in pristine condition and give a delightful glimpse of the lighter side of the Grand Tour.
