July 25, 2008 Gorham Silver: History + Production Rhode Island School of Design Continuing Education and Workshops 20 Washington Place (first floor) Providence, RI 401 454-6200; fax: 401 454-6218 www.risd.edu An afternoon lecture with Sam Hough on the topic of Gorham silver, its connection to Rhode Island School of Design, and how its craftsmen were trained and the silver crafted. Gorham Silver Company has a long historical association with Rhode Island, in addition to its acclaimed status among collectors and silver historians for its 19th-century design innovations and quality production. A vintage film produced by Gorham in 1926 is also included. The instructor – a noted expert on multiple flatware patterns as well as the coveted Art Nouveau Martele silver associated with the designs of William Codman – appraised the Gorham historical archives when it was gifted to Brown University in 1986. He discusses important production lines of the company and offers students an opportunity for hands-on experience with various Gorham silver pieces. IP: Logged |
