Perles by Cohr 826 Silver Charger Plate Beaded Border c1940 (#7073)Item Description
COHR - Danish silverOn April 25, 1860 a young goldsmith named Ditlev Madsen Cohr opened his workshop in Fredericia where he made his living on the manufacture and sale of hand-forged silver flatware. In 1883 he passed away, and his widow led the business until the eldest son, the 25-year-old Carl Madsen Cohr, could take over. Carl then quickly introduced mechanical manufactury methods to the business and in 1895 he began to produce hollowware.By 1921, Cohr began to produce silver plated items, under ATLA Silverplate. When Carl M. Cohr died in 1925, Harald Lützen became the president of the company with Carl’s son Einar Cohr as vice president. The Cohr company had largest silverware factory of its time, and used the designs of several famous designers: Mr Eduart Eggeling, Knud V . Engelhardt, Sigfred Wagner, Mogens Koch and HF Gross. In the 1930’s, steel items began to be produced. International recognition came after the world exhibition in Brussels 1935 and Paris 1937 under the artistic direction of HP Jacobsen. Through the German occupation in 1940-45, Cohr survived by reclaiming old silver and attempting to work with other metals such as plated zinc, "bronze" and spoons and forks made of aluminum. During the 50’s Silversmith Hans Bunde’s designs were also crucial to Cohrs success and brought much recognition to the company’s name even today. Stunning Pearles by Cohr .826 silver charger plate with beaded border. This plate measures 11 1/2" in diameter and weighs 16.9 troy ounces. It is not monogrammed and is in excellent condition.
