Before Allan Adler died the Smithsonain Institution came out and filmed him at work..to preserve the art of Silver Smithing..so you might say Adlers work is a National Treasure....Adler, Blanchard and Friedell were all CA Silver Smiths of renown...Freidell was known for his early Rose Parade/ Rosebowl Trophys....Blanchard for his Colonial Revival / Arts & Crafts...minimalist decoration and Adler for his Modernism....
I was Lucky enough to buy some of this stuff before prices started to escalate...
