“Using traditional silversmithing tools, techniques, and materials we hand hammer, solder, and polish the sheets of sterling silver into contemporary functional forms, vessels, and useful objects. We design and craft our original one of a kind pieces in our Massachusetts country two person studio, surrounded by bucolic gardens and forested hills.” — Michael & Maureen Banner, Silversmiths
