Jewel
Stern's book 'Modernism in American Silver, 20th century design' notes
that the name of the pattern is "an allusion to both designer and maker
as visionaries and trendsetters. Vision was the most radical, innovative
production-line sterling pattern offered by a major manufacturer during
the century." Vision, was introduced in 1961 in a double-page
advertisement in which it was romanticized as having been shaped "proud
and pure" into new forms for a 'skyward age," and the designer lauded as
the "laureate" of recent design competitions.
