Reed & Barton, a celebrated American silversmith, traces its roots back to the 1820s. Based in Massachusetts, the company is renowned for its exceptional quality tableware and giftware. Its creations are so distinguished that they have found a place in the White House, featuring table settings commissioned by the Kennedys and a trophy presented to President Eisenhower in 1954. Among Reed & Barton’s many unique designs are these shown teardrop-shaped petite dishes, distinctively crafted by John Prip, a famed silversmith and industrial designer. Prip's time at Reed & Barton is celebrated as a pivotal era in his distinguished career, introducing a blend of traditional Danish design and American innovation that marked a significant shift for the company with many of his pieces still in production today.
These rare Reed & Barton teardrop dishes, featuring elegant silver-plated bottoms and bold enamel tops in mustard, are a standout. Their curvaceous shape creates a captivating illusion of reflection when viewed from different angles. Styling a space with this pair offers endless possibilities for interaction and display, whether for jewelry, candy, or other treasures. A notable detail that reflects John Prip’s Danish influence is the delicate feet that elevate each dish, inviting an eager hand to explore their contents. less
