John Emes (1772–1808) was a 19th-century London silversmith. He is considered one of the most important silversmiths of the Georgian period, and his work is characterized by its elegant design and fine finish. He was born in London in 1772. He apprenticed to the silversmith Paul Storr, and in 1796 he set up his own workshop at Amen Corner, London. Emes quickly established a reputation for his high-quality work, and he was soon patronized by some of the most prominent families in England.

Emes's work is known for its elegant design and fine finish. He often used classical motifs in his work, and he was also known for his innovative use of new techniques, such as the use of engine turning. Emes's work is highly sought-after by collectors, and his pieces can fetch high prices at auction.

His most admired creations included a tea more... service made for the Duke of Northumberland, c. 1800, a coffee service made for the Duke of Devonshire, c. 1802, a dessert service made for the Marquess of Hertford, c. 1804, a dinner service made for the Prince of Wales, c. 1806.

Emes died in 1808 at the age of 36. He was buried in St. Paul's Cathedral, London. less...
