Dorich House Museum http://www.dorichhousemuseum.org.uk/ in the afternooon was a treat. Researching Dora Gordine's contemporaries at the Morris Singer and Valsuani foundrys. Ideas flowing back and forth re: the lost wax method. Last minute visit from Anet Ben David and Jet re: future projects at Dorich.
