Chawner & Co. was a silver manufacturer originally founded in 1815 by William Chawner II, who had apprenticed to William Fearn starting in 1797. Chawner’s first mark appeared in 1804 as a spoonmaker, joining in partnership with William Eley and William Fearn in 1808. After his death (1834) the business was continued by his widow Mary (née Burwash). Later, Mary Chawner took into partnership (1840) her son-in-law George William Adams (husband of her daughter Mary Ann), who, after her retirement (or death) managed the business as Chawner & Co. and remained sole partner until 1883. In this year Chawner & Co was sold to Holland, Aldwinkle & Slater (1883-1922, when the firm was absorbed by Francis Higgins & Son Ltd). Chawner was the most important manufacturer of spoons and forks in London in it’s heyday, and participated in the 1851 Great Exhibition and the 1862 International Exhibition. Their pattern book (c.1875) is the reference for naming many of the patterns manufactured in the Victorian era. Chawner & Co were also the suppliers of important retail houses such as Hunt & Roskell, R.& S. Garrard & Co, and Elkington & Co.
