Gebelein Silversmiths was a renowned American silversmith shop established in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1909 by master craftsman George Christian Gebelein after leaving Goodnow & Jenks. Grounded in the principles of the Arts and Crafts movement, the firm specialized in exquisite, handcrafted sterling silver hollowware, flatware, and prestigious institutional commissions. Over the decades, the family-run business gained national acclaim for its exceptional craftsmanship, historical restorations, and custom ecclesiastical and civic silver. Following shifts into antique silver dealing and retail, the historic Boston storefront was eventually sold by the family in 1984, and in 1986 the new owner relocated the business to Vermont, where it operated for another three decades as an antique shop specializing in silver before permanently closing.
