Text Appearing Before Image:
he bleakshores of a new land the religious customs of an older landbeyond the seas. The demand for early American silver, besides greatlydecreasing the number of pieces offered for sale, has causedthe increase of the prices asked in even a greater ratio.Some few of the leading silversmiths in the larger citiesgenerally have a number of pieces on hand for whose au-thenticity they are prepared to vouch. Then, too, one maysometimes purchase excellent examples at sales of householdeffects, particularly in places which are comparatively smalland off the beaten track. Such silver, however, is con-stantly becoming more difficult to obtain, and soon the waresof these old Colonial metal workers will be far beyond thereach of any excepting fortunate collectors who are pre-pared to pay any price demanded for what they feel theymust obtain. The collector must be on his guard againstpurchasing as early American silver, the reproductions sooccasionally offered as genuine work of Colonial craftsmen.
Text Appearing After Image:
The beauty of early American Silver is due largely to the gracefulness of its proportion. The round baptismal basin was made by PaulRevere for presentation by Ebenezer Oliver to Kings Chapel, Boston, in 1 798. The center tray, the sauceboat, the strainer (lower righthand corner) and the small creamer on the left were also by Revere. The beaker to the right was made by Jacob Hurd and the coffee-pot (center) by Samuel Minott 100 AMERICAN HOMES AND GARDENS March, 1913
