Lévi & Salaman
Levi & Salaman were Birmingham based silversmiths founded in 1870 by Phineas Harris Levi and Joseph Wolff Salaman. They manufactured gilt costume Jewellery and then progressed into more expensive silver Jewellery and transferred to larger premises in 1872. In 1878 they purchased Potosi Silver Co, a small manufacturer of silverplate spoons and forks. Their wares were a great success and they again moved to bigger manufacturing works in 1885. Levi died in 1910 and the firm was converted to a limited company – Levi & Salaman Ltd with Joseph Wolff Salaman, Clive Joseph Levi (P. H. Levi’s son) and Lewis Henry Salaman listed as directors. The Potosi Silver Co was listed as a subsidiary. In 1921 both amalgamated with Barker Brothers Silversmiths Ltd.
