-----------------------------------------------------------
The Society of
American Silversmiths "the world's #1 resource for anything related to the
silversmiths' art and craft. SAS was founded in April 1989 as the nation's only
professional
organization solely devoted to the preservation and promotion of contemporary
silversmithing, specifically in the areas of holloware, flatware, and sculpture.
Its Artisan members,
those silversmiths both practicing and retired, who now or used to smith as a
livelihood, are
provided with support, networking, and greater access to the market. SAS
Artisans are silversmiths
who have been juried into the Society based on their outstanding technical
skill. SAS also educates
the public in demystifying silversmithing techniques, silver care, restoration &
conservation, and
the aesthetic value of this art form through its free consulting service.
"Another aim of Society is to assist those students who have a strong interest
in becoming silver
craftsmen. With the aid of SAS, its many supplier discounts, and available
workshops throughout
the school year, students will be better prepared to start their lives as
professional silversmiths upon
graduation.
"In addition to an outstanding benefits package, all members have access to the
Society's technical
and marketing expertise, extensive library, and a unique referral service that
commissions silver
holloware, flatware, and sculpture from its Artisans. The archives contain
Artisan resumes, over
1,400 slides, 400 photographs, and a maker's mark registry for identification.
Feel free to consult us
with all your silver-related questions and enjoy the many information-packed
pages on this site."
