Master Silversmith Randy Stromsoe: Silver Stories & Restoration Roadshow

Randy will share about his experience of “baptism by fire” in the business and practice of working in silver and pewter in the 70s, when he was first emerging from his apprenticeship, as well as stories of working with Porter Blanchard in his studio.

In addition to talking about the legacy of silversmithing in California, Randy will open up for an Antiques Roadshow-style show and tell, in which the audience is invited to bring their own purchased or inherited silver pieces for Randy to explore and explain. He will discuss fabrication, form, history, and restoration, as applicable.

This will be the first of two consecutive days to learn about Randy’s process. The following day, Sunday Mar. 1, he will make a cameo appearance demonstration during the tour at Tony Swatton’s studio.
