N.A. Freeman was a renowned maker of coin silver items in Augusta, Georgia who was active in the mid 19th Century. Serving spoons, pitchers, vases and more were hand-crafted with distinctive patterns that are considered highly collectible today despite not being sterling. This is likely due to the same reason almost no information is available about the founder, whose last name suggests he was a freed slave or descendant of one, making his works a truly remarkable part of the history of silversmithing in post-bellum America due to the tumultuous years before and after the Civil War.
