George Hook.  9.30am Irish Set: George has a brilliantly straightforward way of sharing the intricate, and traditional variety of the ancient Irish set dances. George's main occupation is even more fascinating. A century ago, every good quality shirt had a row of handmade Mother of Pearl buttons. Birmingham their main manufacturing centre. In its Jewellery Quarter, a variety of further fascinating handmade brooches etc were produced. George is the very last worker still producing this beautiful traditional shell hand craftwork, in the Midlands. He maintains his family's firm founded in 1824. See HERE George Hook's lovely, interesting website.
