Gorham
New Sterling Silver Flatware, Silverware

The story of Gorham begins in 1813, when Jabez Gorham completed his metalsmith apprenticeship and began making jewelry. In 1831, Jabez Gorham began manufacturing coin silver spoons, which were popular at the time for replacing pewter spoons. In 1848, Jabez Gorham sold the company to his son John Gorham, who oversaw the expansion from a small craftsman's workshop to one of the largest silver manufacturing plants in the world.

In recent years, Gorham has been purchased by several corporations, including Textron, and Brown-Forman (maker of Jack Daniels and other distilled spirits). The patterns are currently licensed for manufacture by Lifetime Brands, who own the Wallace and Towle Silversmiths names. Gorham stainless steel flatware is still manufactured by Lenox Brands.

Buttercup
Strong relief design with factory applied tarnish to really showcase the buttercups. One of Gorham's most popular patterns.

Chantilly
Chantilly is arguably the most popular sterling silver pattern of all time, named after the famous palace of Chantilly, located near Paris. Louis XV era design.

Lily
Another delightful pattern originally created by the Whiting Co., which you'll want to view the closeup photos of to appreciate the complexity of this design.

Newport Scroll
Newport Scroll is the youngest pattern available by Gorham, first appearing in 1983. You may also like 18th Century by Reed and Barton.
