Spectacular centerpieces, tea services, and candelabras are among
the gorgeous silver pieces shown in this new, beautifully
illustrated book. These ware were made of coin and sterling silver,
and range from compotes, pitchers, and serving trays to gravy boats
and butter dishes. All of the top manufacturers of the 19th and
20th centuries are well represented, with photographs and
discussions of pieces by Gorham, Kirk, Steiff and Shreve, among
others. Eras of silver design are explained, with striking examples
provided for Empire style, Gothic Revival, Rococo, Neoclassicism,
Colonial Revival, Art Nouveau, Arts and Crafts, and Art Modernism.
With over 300 detailed photographs of some of the most wonderful
silver hollowware ever produced, this book is a must for collectors
who love to dine in formal style. Each piece is described in
detail, and a current value guide is provided.
