An Illustrated Dictionary of Silverware
Harold Newman
|
An invaluable guide to the subject and of great practical value as an authoritative reference work, this dictionary is devoted to the silverware of Great Britain since c.1500 (including Ireland up to 1921) and North America (embracing the USA, Canada and Mexico) from the Colonial era to the present.
Over 2,300 entries with hundreds of illustrations include definitions of types of article, specific named examples, styles, methods of fabrication and decoration, and many entries on leading individual makers and designers, as well as on outstanding firms of silversmiths.
