Norman Plain by Shreve Sterling Silver Flatware Set Service 267 Pieces Dinner
About the Item
The news of gold at Sutter’s Mill in 1848 brought 300,000 people to California from across the world for the gold rush. The rapid influx of gold into the national money supply sparked a boom in the American economy and jewelers George C. Shreve and his nephew Samuel S. Shreve joined the thousands flocking to America’s new “Gold Coast” to seek their fortune in San Francisco.
In 1852, the pair opened the doors to the new Shreve Jewelry Company at 110 Montgomery Street on the corner of Clay Street. By the 1860s, Shreve & Co. had established its reputation as the finest silver and goldsmith in America. Many of the company’s spectacular pieces were collected by presidents, business tycoons, and prominent families.
The year 1906 ushered in the introduction of Shreve’s first line of flatware and the publication of its first series of illustrated catalogs which featured a variety of watches, jewelry, and exclusive Shreve silver. The Arts & Crafts fiddle handle Norman plain pattern was introduced by Shreve in the year 1915.
