Description
Duncan Urquhart and Naphtali Hart were Jewish silversmiths working in the Georgian London of the 1790. They recorded their first manufacturer’s mark as ‘buckle makers’ at the London Goldsmiths office in 1791. Their last mark registered their occupations as ‘plateworkers’, which shows that they were developing their areas of expertise in silvermaking. In addition to the buckles, Urquhart and Hart specialize in the realization of sophisticated and refined silver tea services, a production that has brought a great prestige to the brand.
