Modern Georgian by Allan Adler Sterling Silver Flatware Set Dinner

Modern Georgian by Allan Adler Sterling Silver Flatware Set Dinner

By Allan Adler

Located in Big Bend, WI

Allan W. Adler (May 8, 1916 - December 3, 2002) His clean, unadorned and well-crafted style was strongly influenced by the traditional work of early American silversmiths and the contemporary work then being done in the Northern European countries of Denmark, Sweden and Norway. It was a unique and one-of-a-kind style of silversmithing. Adler was an American silversmith, known as "silversmith to the stars". Beginning his career as an apprentice in 1938, Adler designed silverware and hollowware in shapes inspired by the Modernist art movement of the early 1900s. Adler learned the craft of silversmithing from noted 5th generation silversmith Porter Blanchard, one of the founders of the Arts and Crafts movement in California. His name became associated with Hollywood glamour in the early 1940s, and he was commissioned to design mini-Oscars for Academy Award winners, crowns for Miss Universe and Miss USA...

Silver Dish with the Judgment of King Solomon — Nuremberg, Germany, 19th Century
Silver Dish with the Judgment of King Solomon — Nuremberg, Germany, 19th Century

Silver Dish with the Judgment of King Solomon — Nuremberg, Germany, 19th Century

Located in New York, NY

A finely crafted 19th-century silver dish from Nuremberg, distinguished by its rich repoussé decoration and a vividly rendered biblical narrative at its center. The dish is formed with a lobed circular outline, its profile recalling the soft curvature of rose petals, a design that lends both elegance and rhythmic movement to the form. The inner walls of the dish are elaborately chased and worked in high repoussé, adorned with large, abundant fruits intertwined with scrolling foliate and floral motifs, evoking themes of prosperity, wisdom, and divine blessing. Each lobed section of the wall is carefully defined by a beaded border, which separates and articulates the petal-like segments with precision and refinement. These beaded divisions descend harmoniously toward the base, where they converge into a continuous circular beaded band, providing a visually cohesive and satisfying transition to the central medallion. At the heart of the dish is an intricately chased depiction of the Judgment of King Solomon, drawn from the Book of Kings. King Solomon is shown seated upon his throne, holding his scepter in one hand while extending his other hand in a commanding gesture toward one of his officers. The officer stands to the side, a sword raised in his right hand, while a crying infant hangs from his other arm, heightening the dramatic tension of the scene. Before the king stand the two women of the narrative: one woman, overcome with anguish, pleads desperately, her arms outstretched toward the child, imploring the officer to halt the terrible act; the second woman stands apart, her posture and gesture indicating cold acquiescence to the king’s command. At her side lies a motionless infant, underscoring the emotional and moral contrast between the two figures. Solomon’s decisive gesture and the reactions of the figures encapsulate the moment in which true motherhood is revealed through compassion. The scene is rendered with remarkable attention to detail: draped textiles hang in the background, architectural elements frame the court, and the stone-tiled floor beneath the figures is meticulously articulated, adding depth and realism to the composition. The high level of chasing and modeling demonstrates the exceptional skill of Nuremberg silver...

Vintage, New and Antique Sterling Silver

Dining and entertaining changed drastically when we began to set our tables with sterling silver for holiday gatherings, wedding receptions, engagement parties and, in some of today’s homes, everyday meals.

Often called the “Queen of metals,” silver has been universally adored for thousands of years. It is easy to see why it has always been sought after: It is durable, strong and beautiful. (Louis XIV had tables made entirely of silver.) Sterling silver is an alloy that is made of 92.5 percent silver — the “925” stamp that identifies sterling-silver jewelry refers to this number. The other 7.5 percent in sterling silver is typically sourced from copper.

Neoclassical-style sterling-silver goods in Europe gained popularity in the late 18th century — a taste for sterling-silver tableware as well as tea sets had taken shape — while in the United States, beginning in the 19th century, preparing the dinner table with sterling-silver flatware had become somewhat of a standard practice. Indeed, owning lots of silver goods during the Victorian era was a big deal. Back then, displaying fine silver at home was a status symbol for middle-class American families. And this domestic silver craze meant great profitability for legendary silversmith manufacturers such as Reed & Barton, Gorham Manufacturing Company and the International Silver Company, which was incorporated in Meriden, Connecticut, in 1898, a major hub of silver manufacturing nicknamed “Silver City.”

Today, special occasions might call for ceremonial silver designed by Tiffany & Co. or the seductive sterling-silver cutlery from remarkable Danish silversmith Georg Jensen, but there really doesn’t have to be an event on the calendar to trot out your finest tableware.

Event- and wedding-planning company maestro Tara Guérard says that some “investment pieces,” such as this widely enamored alloy, should see everyday use, and we’re inclined to agree.

“Sterling-silver flatware is a must-have that you can use every single day, even to eat cereal,” she says. “Personally, I want a sterling-silver goblet set for 12 to 20; I would use them every time I had a dinner party. Ultimately, there are no criteria for buying vintage pieces: Buy what you love, and make it work.”

Whether you’re thinking “ceremonial” or “cereal,” browse a versatile collection of vintage, new and antique sterling-silver wares on 1stDibs today.
