Did anyone ever find out anything about this metalsmith/artist? I have a small, but lovely copper dish with an impressed mark of J Braun, with hammer and awl. It is of good quality and may be from the arts and crafts time period. Would like info! Thanks. IP: Logged |

In your notice of "welcome to new members", I would be in the category of those who know "little or nothing" about silver. However, I have been a long time collector of vintage jewelry (mostly silver), and antiques, and I will be taking a metalsmithing class at a local college this fall. I have come across some pieces, such as the J Braun copper dish that I would like to get more info on, just to expand my personal infomation base. I'm certain that as I get more invovled in the metalsmithing class, I'll become more knowledgible, but this seemed like a good place to start. Just stumbled across your website. IP: Logged |

Hi Missy, I have a great interest in the work of J.Braun and have collected a few pieces. Could you possibly post an image of your copper dish? If you follow the link that Scott has posted you will learn all that I have been able to discover about the craftsman. Best, IP: Logged |

Thanks so much Scott and Fred! Yes, that is the mark on my copper piece. I will try to get a pic put up by the weekend - will need my son's help to post it - I'm not very good with computer stuff. Again, my copper dish has a definite early 1900's feel to it - maybe Arts and Crafts period. I purchased it in NY, so maybe the New Jersey Braun is a good lead. IP: Logged |
