He won a scholarship to study architecture in Europe and founded his own firm, Albert Kahn Associates, in Detroit in 1895. Kahn developed a innovative form of construction that replaced wood walls with reinforced concrete, which allowed for larger unobstructed interiors and greater fire protection. The Packard Motor Car Company factory, built in 1903, was the first project to incorporate Kahn’s new construction method. In 1917 he designed both the half-mile-long Ford River Rouge Complex in Dearborn and the Detroit News Building. In 1928 he designed the 28-story Fisher Building in Detroit, which was noted as the most beautiful commercial structure of the year by the Architectural League of New York. His residential projects included the Cranbrook House in Bloomfield Hills, the Edsel and Eleanor Ford House in Grosse Pointe as well as a number of homes in Indian Village, Detroit. He is also responsible for a number grand buildings on the University of Michigan campus in Ann Arbor, including Hill Auditorium, the Hatcher Graduate Library, the William L.

364 An American Silver Spoon Grant Wood, Cedar Rapids, IA, Circa 1913 the elongated handle with slightly up-turned squared terminal marked on reverse of handle W. incuse Length 6 1/4 inches Celebrated painter Grant Wood (1891-1942) actually began his artistic career in metalsmithing. Born in Anamosa, IA, Wood was trained at the Minneapolis Handicraft Guild. In 1911 he and partner Kate Loomis founded a workshop focusing on jewelry and metal in the basement of the Loomis home in Cedar Rapids. The Loomwood Craft Shop sold hand wrought trays, sconces, holloware and jewelry in copper and silver. Wood was member of the Cedar Rapids Sketch Club, and it was at a meeting hosted at the Loomwood Craft Shop that Wood befriended fellow artist Julian Lars Hoftrup in 1913. The present lot is thought to have been given to Hoftrup by Wood in payment for lessons (Darcy L. Evon, Hand Wrought Arts & Crafts Metalwork & Jewelry 18901940, 2013, p. 224). In the same year Wood moved to Chicago, where he worked for the Kalo Shop while attending evening classes at the Art Institute. In 1914 he partnered with Norwegian silversmith Kristopher Haga to open the Would Shop in Park Ridge focused on gold and silver jewelry. The partnership lasted eighteen months, at which time Haga returned to the Kalo Shop, and Wood moved back to Iowa and commenced painting (Sharon S. Darling, Chicago Metalsmiths, 1977, p. 63). $300-500

According to Gorham’s Martelé records, as reproduced by Larry Pristo in Martelé 950-1000 Fine Gorham’s Nouveau Art Silver, porringer M/XW was completed on 5 July 1907. Records indicate that the porringer required 15 hours to be raised and that the chasing was accomplished by a “boy” and required an additional 15 hours. The net factory price at the time of completion was $30 (p. 392). $2,000-4,000

In Hand Wrought Arts & Crafts Metalwork & Jewelry 1890-1940, 2013, author Darcy L. Evon notes that retailer B.S.C. was likely a Chicago-based company. She illustrates a bowl also marked BSC and with maker’s mark WC and suggests that WC may possibly be attributed to William Codman, Jr., who was a designer for Spaulding & Co., Chicago, IL from 1895-1901 (pp. 144, 270). $300-500

366 365

Darcy L. Evon, in Hand Wrought Arts & Crafts Metalwork & Jewelry 1890-1940, 2013, notes that maker’s mark WC may be that of William Codman, Jr. who was working in Chicago in the late 19th-early 20th century. The son of famed Martelé designer, William Christmas Codman Sr., William Jr. and his brother John moved to Chicago in 1895 to design for Spaulding & Co.. While John stayed in Chicago for only one year, William Jr. remained in the city and likely produced a wholesale line of hand raised and chased silver retailed by various Chicago-based jewelry firms (pp. 144, 270). $700-900

Provenance: The Estate of Potter and Bertha Matilde Honoré Palmer, Chicago, IL Thence by descent to the present owner

The monogram is that of Bertha Matilde Honoré Palmer (1849-1918), wife of Chicago businessman Potter Palmer (1826-1902). Mrs. Palmer was raised in Louisville, KY and in 1871 married Potter Palmer, twentythree years her senior. In 1852 Potter Palmer had established a dry goods store on Lake Street in Chicago. To distinguish his firm from his competitors Palmer focused his efforts on female clientele selling both dry goods and imported French fashions, and instituted a “no questions asked” return policy. In 1865 he partnered with Marshall Field and Levi Leiter and rebranded the firm as Field, Palmer Leiter and Company. He is credited for the development of State Street as well as Lake Shore Drive, where in 1885 the Palmers constructed a massive turreted Italianate mansion in the Gold Coast. The Palmers were ambitious collectors of French Impressionism, and their collection, which now forms the core of the Art Institute of Chicago’s collection, included 29 Monets and 11 Renoirs. Mrs. Palmer was famous for her legendary jewels and lavish tastes-the front page headline of the Chicago Sunday Tribune once begged the question “Is Mrs Potter Palmer the Only American Woman Who Knows how to Spend a Fortune?”. Her husband’s will dictated that upon his death a significant sum should go to Bertha’s next husband “Because he’ll need it.” Mrs. Palmer was very involved in the World’s Columbian Exposition of 1893, and served as the President of the Board of Lady Managers. She died in Florida in 1918. The Palmer Mansion was demolished in 1950. $12,000-18,000
