Magrit Tevan (1901-1978):

«She studied at the Academy of Applied Arts in Budapest and after one year specialized with some of the most famous goldsmiths of the time: Richard Zutt and Ferenc (Francis) Kiss. Not being interested in making jewels, she later joined Arpád Vértes' workshop which was better known under the name of "Stúdió" (1927-1928)».

«By creating boxes and plates, she innovates the goldsmith tradition which at the time was more interested in making vases and bowls».

«Between 1944 and 1945, Tevan was forced to live in the international ghetto of Budapest and obtained a safe conduct passport from the Swedish authorities.[4] She continued to work during the Communist era where she kept her poetic register with smaller works that are sometimes offered as presents.[5] References to both Jewish and Christian culture appear in Tevan's work».

«Tevan participated in numerous exhibitions and received a Diplôme d'honneur for her work during the Paris World Exhibition in 1937. She also obtained a similar diploma during the 1939 New York World Fair. She won the silver medal at the Milan Triennial VII of 1940.[6][7] In 1957, she won the Munkácsy Prize, the highest artistic recognition in Hungary, as well as numerous other prizes between 1971 and 1976».
