Child and Child are most famous for their lavishly enamelled jewels which borrowed motifs and themes from the paintings of the Pre-Raphaelite artists with whom they were contemporaries. The artist Edward Burne-Jones (1833-1898) was a customer, as well as the enameller Madeline Wyndham (1871-1941), a close friend of Burne-Jones whose home was ornamented by Dante Gabriel Rossetti.
