American Chippendale®

american-chippendale Modest lines and generous proportions best describe the appearance of the American Chippendale pattern. A large, ungarnished handle blends into a simply lined stem. A beautiful display of the lustrous quality of unadorned sterling silver.

Ben Franklin®

ben-franklin Classic lines make this design a favorite. Benjamin Franklin makes a statement of an unfailing appreciation for beauty and tradition. The perfect pattern for any formal dining affair, Benjamin Franklin is also available with gold accent.

Candlelight®

candlelight Candlelight was first designed with a handle completely covered with rich Renaissance embroidery (which is still visible on the side panels). Then it was shown to a famous designer, who said, ìItís lovely, but why not add a modern note? Why not lay a ribbon of smooth silver right down the center of the handle?î Instantly, there was a striking effect of plain silver contrasted with rich ornamentation. No other pattern has the effect of a raised ribbon of silver laid over a rich decorative background. Thatís why Candlelight stands alone among exquisite sterling flatware patterns.

Celtic Weave Gold®

Its intricate details and trim are adorned by 24-karat gold, adding a rich and distinctive standard of beauty.Celtic Weave Gold is a pattern imbued with history, elegance, and flair.

Chippendale®

chippendale Introduced in 1937, Chippendale owes its design directly to the great master for whom it is named. The graceful, curving leg of an 18th century chair is the inspiration for the sweeping curves in every detail of this design. For example, only in Chippendale does the end of the handle sweep out in a graceful flare - just like the mark of the master, Chippendale himself. Delicate raised lines and tiny flowerlets on both the front and back of the handle accentuate the smooth curves of the pattern. All elements are perfectly balanced, which makes Chippendale so classic and enduring.
