ABOUT REED AND BARTON:
Reed & Barton was a prominent American silversmith manufacturer based in the city of Taunton, Massachusetts, operating between 1824 and 2015. Its products include sterling silver and silverplate flatware. The company produced many varieties of britannia and silver products since Henry G. Reed[1] and Charles E. Barton took over the failing works of Isaac Babbitt[2] in Taunton. During the American Civil War, Reed & Barton produced a considerable quantity of weapons for Union Army soldiers and officers
Reed & Barton was originally founded as Babbitt & Crossman in Taunton, Massachusetts in 1824. Babbitt & Crossman, which produced Britannia ware, was first owned by Isaac Babbitt. However, the company was slowly losing money, so the failing company was purchased by Henry G. Reed and business partner Charles E. Barton.[3][4]
In 1928, Reed & Barton merged with silversmith Dominick & Haff.[5]
Reed & Barton was chosen to design and produce the official gold, silver, and bronze medals for the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta,[6] of which there are samples on display at the Old Colony History Museum in Taunton. The company's products are used at the White House in Washington, D.C. Today, the company operates a factory store at the plant site, an outlet store at Wrentham Premium Outlets in Wrentham, Massachusetts, and an online store as well.
Please understand that I primarily sell vintage or antique pieces. While I try to describe any flaws accurately and to the best of my ability, remember that vintage pieces will always have imperfections – the “patina” that gives them their history and charm. If you’re looking for perfection, you may be disappointed.
