Mid 20th Century Durham Sterling Silver Footed Bowl or Compote
About the Item
An elegant mid 20th century sterling silver footed bowl or compote by the Durham Silver Company of New York. Durham was active in the mid 20th century, 1950's and 1960's. The design of this bowl reminds the viewer of the works by Alphone La Paglia, Georg Jensen and Gorham. This piece is marked on the bottom: Sterling, 6311, Durham. A bit of information about Alphonse La Paglia from the 925 website, "Alphonse La Paglia (1907 - 1953), was born in Sicily, according to 'Silver in American Life' (Yale University, 1979) he studied silversmithing with Georg Jensen in Denmark. La Paglia emerged in the U.S. in the early 1940's, designing and creating jewelry for the firm of Frederick Lunning (Georg Jensen USA Inc.), he also worked independently crafting jewelry and hollowware in his Summit, New Jersey workshop. In 1952, La Paglia established a working relationship with the International Silver Company. Under their auspices, he moved his workshop to Meriden, Connecticut and formed the International Sterling Craft Associates. There, with just a handful of assistants, he created modernist Danish inspired hollowware and jewelry that was retailed by International. Alphonse La Paglia died of a heart attack at the age of 46 in 1953. The rights to his designs became the property of International and were continued in production. The International Sterling Craft Associates continued on under the directorship of Kurt Eric Christoffersen until circa 1957.".

Between 1875 and 1880 Battey, Cobb and Gould withdrew from the partnership and Watson and Newell, the only ones left, formed a new firm operating under the name Watson & Newell (1880-1886).

The business continued with success and, needing larger quarters, in 1894 the old Mechanics Mill property was bought opening the new factory in 1896. The name changed to Watson & Newell Co, while Mechanics Sterling Company was the name of the subsidiary flatware branch. In 1899 the firm obtained its first flatware patent (Clarence L. Watson) and began a wide production of flatware and souvenir spoons. Failing health forced Fred Newell to retire from the active participation to the firm shortly after the turn of the century. He remained as a non-active partner until his death (1910).
