Note du spécialiste

Arthur J. Stone was a leading silversmith from Gardner, MA. In 1901, Stone set up shop in Gardener, which operated under his name until its sale in 1937 to Henry Heywood. He was trained and worked in Sheffield, England, and Edinburgh, Scotland prior to coming to the U.S. in 1884. He was one of the last silversmiths in America to train apprentices to carry out designs in handwrought silver.
