Description
Allan Adler 925 Silver Swedish Modern Silverware Set Service for 16 (8,400.00g.)
This exceptional Allan Adler Swedish Modern sterling silver flatware set represents the pinnacle of American modernist silver, handcrafted by one of the most respected silversmiths of the 20th century. Allan Adler’s work is internationally celebrated for its sculptural form, impeccable balance, and unmistakable hand-hammered texture—each piece shaped by hand rather than mass-produced. Adler silver is collected alongside works by the great modernist designers, and complete services of this scale are considered the crown jewels of his production.
This is a true service for 16, not a pieced-together assortment, but a cohesive and substantial set that includes an extensive selection of place settings and serving utensils. Sets of this size are exceptionally rare, as Allan Adler’s work was labor-intensive and produced in relatively small quantities. The hand-hammered surfaces create a rich play of light across each utensil, giving the silver depth, warmth, and a tactile quality that cannot be replicated by machine-made flatware. Each piece bears the “Allan Adler-D” mark and “Handhammered” inscription, underscoring its authenticity and artisanal origin.
In excellent condition (9/10) with no noted damages or imperfections, this set offers an impressive approximate total silver weight of 8,400.00 grams, making it as substantial as it is visually striking. Large, intact Allan Adler services seldom come to market, and when they do, they are quickly absorbed by collectors, designers, and estate buyers seeking investment-grade silver with lasting cultural significance.
