Edward Moore, designer of the Palm pattern, dominated the first
era of Tiffany made flatware and designed several full lines of sterling
patterns. Moore's father manufactured for Tiffany and upon retirement left
Edward Moore in charge at the young age of 24. In 1868 Tiffany incorporated and
bought the Moore Company, making Moore a Tiffany director and chief designer
and head of silverware operation. With his travels, he experienced many exotic
cultures and art which significantly impacted his designs. After his death, his
true genius was fully acknowledged and he was then called "A Prince of
Silversmiths.... easily the foremost silversmith in the United States."
