About the Item

Vintage John Prip for Reed & Barton "Dimension" modernist tea and coffee silver plated service set. Designed by John Prip for Reed & Barton in 1960; "Dimension" pattern coffee and tea set. This service set is extremely well made, substantial and heavy. Each piece is marked on the bottom as follows: Measures: 8 1/2" tall coffee pot: "Reed & Barton 1500 dimension" 6 1/2" tall tea pot: "Reed & Barton 1501 dimension" 4 1/4" tall creamer: "Reed & Barton 1503 dimension". JOHN PRIP John Prip (b. 1922) is a fourth generation metalsmith, born in New York and raised in Denmark. At the age of 15, he began his apprenticeship at his father’s silversmithing factory. At the age of 26, he immigrated back to America with his wife and son and began teaching at the School for American Craftsmen at Alfred University, New York. Later he taught at the Rochester Institute of Technology and co-owned Shop One, a retail outlet for high quality handmade objects. In 1957, Prip worked at the Reed and Barton Company, a hollowware and flatware company in Massachusetts, as an Artist in Residence. Some of his designs are still in production there today. The technical skill he acquired apprenticing in Denmark, along with the American qualities of innovation and experimentation have given Prip a unique and distinguished place in metalsmithing. He has taught at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and currently at the Rhode Island School of Design.
