About the Item
Outstanding English Sterling flatware service in fitted chest
The Edward Viner Silver Factory
The origins of the Viner’s silver factory in Sheffield date back to 1908. Emile Viner, together with his brother Adolf, managed Viners Ltd (the spelling became established in the following years), one of the largest manufacturers of cutlery and silverware in England. However, the company did not limit itself to the manufacture of silverware, but also produced objects in pewter. Initially based in Broomhall Street, Sheffield, larger premises were soon required and production was moved to Bath Street in 1912. The company’s success also derived from its adaptability: during the First World War, for example, Viners Ltd produced mainly helmets and other war-related material, and production of silver was somewhat reduced. As Jewish immigrants, Adolf and Emile changed their name from Viener to Viner in November 1925. In 1930, George V granted the silver factory the privilege of being a supplier and silversmith to the English court.
In 1932 there was a generational change in management and the silver hallmark of Viners Ltd was registered for the son and nephew Edward Viner. In 1957, Gerald Benney, one of the most important British designers of the post-war period, was appointed head of the design department.

Colonial by Tiffany Sterling Silver Flatware Set Service 179 Pcs Fitted Chest
By Tiffany & Co.
Located in Big Bend, WI
The pattern Colonial was introduced in 1895 but did not get patent until 1896. This contradicts the mark, as the dies were made with the anticipated patent date, and when it happened later than expected the expense to change it was too high. The pattern was discontinued in 1913. It was designed by Paulding Franham and was plain in comparison to his later designs. The handle is bordered by four bands which form a scroll with leaf, but the back is not an identical pattern, but similar.
George Paulding Farnham (1859-1927) was born in New York City. His aunt married Charles T Cook, who assumed presidency of Tiffany after the death of Charles L Tiffany in 1902. Farnham attended Tiffany school and was trained by Edward C Moore and Charles Gosjean. He stayed with Tiffany and eventually became a board member in 1888 and in 1893 was appointed chief designer and head of jewelry later also assuming the role of artistic director of the silver department as well. His flatware designs were similar to jewelry designs, very ornate, elaborate, and in "beaux arts" tradition. He created six full sterling lines for Tiffany during his time, before leaving Tiffany in 1908.
