Q. When Frederick Carder made flatware in 1926, who was the company that made the silver and gold metal parts of the forks, knifes,spoons? Thank you

Need to know for something I am working on -- I know that Carder made the glass for the flatware, but I can not find who made the metal fittings

Thank you for contacting us with your question. I have reviewed a number of sources and as of yet have not been able to locate who made the metal parts used in Carder's flatware. I have a few other places to check in mind. If I find anything I'll be in touch.

You may want to contact the Carder Steuben club, while their focus is glass they may be able to give you direction.

Best regards,
