Agleopar. I wish I had known William Phipps. He seems to have been quite a character as well as a leading silversmith. My friend is Alan Kelsey whose work is largely anonymous. He served a traditional apprenticeship back in the 1940s/early 1950s and spent his working life as a spoonmaker in the old London manufacturing silversmiths over the period in which they shrank and were eventually swallowed up one by one into a single company. Hand-made...

It is such a shame that the trade has become next to nothing. Now the craft in the States and in England, as well as Europe looks more like the 17th c. with small workshops instead of the great companies. There is a whole back-story that would be interesting to get down on paper as to why Wakeley and Wheeler (Paget and Braham) became the sole survivor? Why not Garrard, Aspreys or Barnards, which I believe, goes back to an earlier time than the...

Hallo Postnikov, I do not think that the Netherlands is a 12 Loth mark, or had a 0.75 mark. I think it is a town in south east Germany. You have a picture of the Dutch mark? Kind Regards SP

Published (2009-12-11 10:48:00)
I ran across an interesting pattern in one of my reference books that kind of surprised me. It is Mayfair by Frank Smith. It is a multi-motif pattern and was created in 1951. I had thought that there were no new multi-motif patterns introduced after the early 1900s. Does anyone know of any other multi-motif patterns that were introduced after 1950 (other than re-issues)? And has anyone seen pieces of this pattern? Robert

Tiffany introduced a multi-motif pattern a few years ago. And there are a few recent ones in stainless. Beyond that, I don't know.

Hello my name is Dawn. I have found a set of eight beautiful goblets that I believe to be silver but I am not an expert so I can?t be sure. The markings at the bottom of the stem say ?International Silver Co.? There is a design as well as a number 2 stamped on the bottom as well. There is a sticker on the bottom of the cup that says ?Inspector No 09 Hand Crafted Hand Inspected Finest Quality International Sliver Co Meriden Connecticut U.S.A? I...

Antoher beautiful example! He just seemed to have a design flair that is missing in so many other pieces of Arts & Crafts flatware. I would be interesting to know more about him, and whether he had any art training in addition to training as a silversmith. Thanks for sharing, Brent

Happy Thanksgiving!

Great pictures! While not a Thanksgiving table, here is a my table set for brunch for a friend's birthday on 11/28. I think it is a great idea for all of us to share more silver in situ so to speak and being used. Happy Holidays! Kelly

According to Keith Pinn's book "Paktong, the Chinese alloy in Europe,1620-1820",Paktong was an alloy of copper and nickel with zinc added, while Tutenag was plain zinc. Europeans however mostly applied the term tutenag to the alloy which was a predecessor of "German silver".
