Lily by Whiting is one of the most
distinctive and highly collectible American sterling silver patterns, first
introduced in 1902. The design is an
extraordinary example of the Art Nouveau
style, with the handle beautifully sculpted with flowing lily blossoms, leaves,
and graceful scrolling foliage. The deeply dimensional floral decoration gives each piece a
wonderfully organic, sculptural quality. The handle is richly detailed from end
to end, with a prominent lily motif and flowing botanical forms that create
exceptional depth and visual interest.
Originally created by the Whiting
Manufacturing Company, Lily was later produced under Gorham, following Gorham's acquisition of
Whiting. Lily
is a remarkable choice for the collector of fine American sterling silver,
combining the artistry of the Gilded Age with the naturalistic beauty of the
Art Nouveau movement.
