Charles Ede Prize
About
The UNEMA Charles Ede Prize was established in 1999 by Mr James Ede in memory of his father, Charles Ede (1921–2002). In 1947 Charles Ede founded The Folio Society, which published handcrafted, limited edition books. In 1971 he established Charles Ede Ltd, a leading London-based firm dealing in Classical and Pre-Classical Antiquities from Greece, Egypt, Italy, Cyprus and the Near East.
