Brenton West Biography – Brenton West Wiki

Brenton West is a British silversmith, photographer, and television personality. He has been a regular member of the British television show The Repair Shop since 2017. He works as a professional resident silversmith on the show along with Dominic Chinea and skilled craftspeople. He is also a photographic enthusiast. He is the master of replicating the missing pieces and reinstating the shine.

His expertise in his field started as he realized he was arty at school – being creative in the metalwork and art departments. He studied silversmithing and the course gave him the ability to shape, make and repair metal and other materials. As well as gold and silver he has worked on racing and classic cars.

He came to be in the show when the producers asked him to repair a wooden camera that they had been told was irreparable. It was the sort of job that he had been doing for a long time but was still challenging. He managed, at last, getting him a pass to the entry of the show.

Watching the show on television before he joined led him to think that it was an amazing place to work and how he would love to work there. When he was contacted and arrived to work in the barn he was not disappointed. The setting, the challenges, the happiness of the contributors, and working with the other amazing experts make it a dream. He said that genuinely, everyone gets on like a close-knit family.

He studied a degree in silversmithing at Medway College of Design. Later, he took a degree in Photography specializing in 19th Century photography and equipment. He describes his silversmithing as his most enduring skill as he has been doing it for over 40 years.
