Christmas Ornaments, Sterling Silver, Christmas Remembrance Collection First Edition, Towle Sterling, 1990 This classic Christmas ornament is the 1st edition of the Christmas Remembrance Collection, created by Towle Sterling in 1990. Although Towle Silversmiths was not founded until 1857 (as Towle Jones) and then 1873 (as A.F. Towle Son); its progenitors included several members of the Moulton family, whose silversmith dynasty is claimed to have the longest continuous span of silver smithing of any American family, beginning in 1690. The ornament is a sterling silver snowflake with a metal ring for attaching a ribbon for hanging. The set comes with a tarnish-resistant red velvet bag, the green foil box (not the orignanl) and the cardboard sleeve for storing. The snowflake is 3" across and weighs .7 oz.
