Martele was an exclusively handcrafted range, whose name was derived from the French 'marteler' (to hammer) denoting the production technique used, ie hammered or handwrought.
Martele was produced by Gorham from 1897 to 1930 under the guidance of William Codman.
Codman being a fine English silversmith brought over in 1891 for this express purpose.
Due to the fact that all Martele silver was handmade, each piece tends to be unique in style.
