CARENCE CRAFTERS
The Carence Crafters were located in Chicago and appear to have started around 1908; very little is known about the company today. The majority of Carence Crafters metal was made from copper, brass or German silver (a fine pewter) with the designs acid-etched into the material, leaving a raised or relieved pattern. Subjects ranged from the whimsical (flying dragonflies, crabs, geese) to stylized designs of flowers and trees. They also made a line of silver jewelry with modern Celtic knots set with stones.
