Vintage Home is pleased to present this set of 10 Sterling Cordials from renown silversmith Antonio Pineda (1919-2009) who was born in Taxco, Mexico. Pineda sold his work internationally including jewelry, tableware, hollow ware and barware. In 1944 he exhibited 160 pieces in San Francisco and Richard Gump from high-end retailer Gump’s bought all 160 pieces. He opened his silversmith workshop in his hometown of Taxco and his legacy is he became one of the leaders of the 20th Century revival of Mexican silver design. The Eagle with 202 is Pineda’s makers mark as registered with the Mexican Assay Office. This Eagle mark was first issued in 1948. In the 1960s the Assay added initials ahead of the number, making these cordials dated from the 1950s. The glass inserts have a makers mark ‘W in a circle’. This is the mark of German glass maker Bayerische Flaschen-Glashuttenwerke Wiegand & Sohne. Started in 1570, Nicolas Wiegand hand-made glass drinking vessels in Rhon, Germany. Today the 450 year old company is called Wiegand-Glas. The Cordials feature an open sterling design of botanical flora wrapped around a glass insert supported by a sterling stem and round base. The glass inserts can be removed for cleaning. Beautiful historic Mexican silver set.
