Publisher Description: This is the first comprehensive survey of the New York Historical Society's superb collection of early American silver. It features the full range of silver works, from masterpieces like the 1772 salver by New York City silversmith Lewis Fueter, to the teapot made by Albany silversmith Kiliaen Van Rensselaer in 1695--one of the earliest teapots made in New York. |
