In the mid to late 1950's "space
age silver" was all the rage. In 1957, the year of Sputnik, star-studded
sterling flatware was continuing to be designed and released, which continued
all through the 60's. President Kennedy's mission in 1961 to reach the moon
culminated the successful voyage of the Apollo 11 spacecraft in 1969. It was an
exciting time in space exploration and man's achievements in an expanding
universe. This star-studded Mid-Century Modern pattern was a direct result of
our interest in space during that time.
