Founded in New Orleans in 1893, T. Hausmann & Sons established a lasting legacy as premier Southern jewelers, silversmiths, and importers of luxury goods. Operated by Theresa Hausmann and her sons Louis and Gabriel, the firm became widely celebrated throughout the United States for crafting exquisite silver presentation pieces, elegant flatware, and bespoke decorative items that captured the refined tastes of the Victorian era. Originating in 1873 when Henry Hausmann went to work as a jeweler for Adolphe Himmel, Henry took over the business when Himmel died in 1877 and left it to his widow when he died a year later, creating a company that continued up until 1985, by which time it was simply named Hausmann’s, Inc. Today, surviving pieces bearing the Hausmann hallmarks are highly coveted by collectors and museums around the world.
