About the Item

Antique Victorian Simpson Hall Miller Co quadruple silver plate oil lamp with cotton wick and ornate repousse floral design. Measure: 3.5". Cutlery and hollowware manufacturer Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co. operated out of Wallingford, Connecticut. Eventually, the firm expanded the scope of its business to include facilities in Montreal, Canada. Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co. gained much recognition for its sterling silver and silver-plated wares. Its clientele was mostly American, although it did also cater to the international community. Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co. Silver Plate - History In 1878, Samuel Simpson, who had founded Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co. twelve years earlier, partnered with William Rogers Jr. (of the famed Hartford, Connecticut, Rogers silversmithing clan) to oversee the production and marketing of the Rogers “Eagle” brand name. This joint venture, though reasonably brief, proved quite profitable for Simpson and his company—despite the resultant controversy surrounding William Rogers Jr.’s right to use the “Rogers” name, a family dispute that, fortunately, did not entangle Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co. Because of this contract, Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co. were able to manufacture a large quantity of electroplated silver tableware, beating their local rivals, including the original William Rogers Mfg. Co. One of Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co.’s first big splashes occurred at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exhibition, where the firm received acclaim for its fine silver and silver-plated pieces. A few years later, in 1880-81, this manufacturer, out of 45 American and European competitors, was awarded the First Prize Medal at the Melbourne International Exhibition in Melbourne, Australia. As of 1895, the firm began to make sterling silverware, many pieces of which represented significant contributions to the Art Nouveau movement. The International Silver Company absorbed Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co. in 1898, resulting from the merger of many different firms in the American Northeast and Canada. The former would go on to become one of the largest and most influential silver manufacturers in the United States. After its acquisition, Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co. answered to the International Silver Company’s headquarters in nearby Meriden, Connecticut. The International Silver Company continued to make use of both the Simpson, Hall, Miller & Co. brand and product lines in some capacity until 1983 when it permanently ceased to manufacture silver and closed its doors.
