Derek Lloyd FWCB/The Peacock Chair/ a wrought iron rocking chair, the shaped back pierced with foliate stems and tendrils, the scroll arms with peacock heads, the sides with pierced bars to emulate quills, the seat and back upholstered in pale blue moiré silk/Note: In 1941, at the age of five, Derek Lloyd was evacuated from Birmingham to Worcestershire where his new home was opposite a blacksmiths shop. He started to assist there and when older undertook a 4-year apprenticeship. After serving in the army, he established his own blacksmithing business and also taught at what is now the National School of Blacksmithing in Hereford. A farrier all his life, Derek has shoed thousands of horses including winners of the Grand National and Cheltenham Gold Cup. /This chair was designed and created as an entry in the 1993 Ornamental Ironwork National Championship. It is a completely traditional piece of work, meaning that all the assembly was carried out by riveting or forge welding by hand. The chair was entered into all the major UK championship shows during 1993 and won every event but one, thereby becoming the overall winner.
