About the Item
Pair of salt & Pepper shakers designed by Allan Adler (1916-2002).
This is a pair of minimalist salt and pepper shakers designed by the American silversmith Allan Adler, back in 1949-1950. They are the original design, masterfully crafted in hollowware of .925/.999 sterling silver with high polished finish.
Allan Adler
He was a silversmith who worked in the Arts and Crafts style. Born in Missoula, MT, he lived and worked most of his life in Los Angeles. He learned the trade from his father-in-law, Porter Blanchard. He started his career when he was introduced to a man named Porter Blanchard by his uncle. 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. 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, and silver bowls, candlesticks and goblets for celebrity clients. During John F. Kennedy's presidential campaign, Adler crafted a silver coffee urn to be used at a fundraising event. As a businessman, Adler opened his own shop on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles and later in La Jolla, Corona del Mar and San Francisco. In 1980 fire burnt entirely his shop.
