EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite Silver Salt Trencher, created by American artist Kalamian Walton in the late 1930s, is a stunning example of decorative arts from the 20th century. The intricately detailed graphite drawing on paperboard depicts an elegant silver salt dish, complete with a trencher or shallow dish attached, designed for easy access to the salt during formal dining. The Silver Salt Trencher is a period item that embodies the refined taste and aesthetic sensibilities of the 1930s and 1940s in America. Walton's use of silver in the design adds a touch of luxury and sophistication to the piece, making it a desirable addition to any table setting. The Silver Salt Trencher is also a testament to the rich heritage of American art and design, showcasing the country's commitment to creating beautiful and functional objects. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. is fortunate to have this work in its collection, which is a valuable addition to the Index of American Design. The gallery's visitors can appreciate the intricate details of the drawing, which captures the essence of silverware and tableware from this era. The Silver Salt Trencher is a reminder of a bygone era when formal dining was an important part of social life, and when artists like Kalamian Walton were celebrated for their ability to create beautiful and functional objects that added to the overall dining experience. This unique piece is a must-see for anyone interested in American art, decorative arts, or the history of tableware.
