It is with a heavy heart that i announce the passing of my beloved husband, Frank M. Powell, on April 1, 2024. Following is his obituary:

https://www.jamesterryfuneralhome.com/tributes/Frank-Powell

Frank Powell was truly a renaissance man, deeply passionate about pewter and dedicated to mastering all aspects of its craft. From repairing to buying and selling this old gray metal, his expertise was unparalleled. A born artisan and craftsman, Frank's skills extended far beyond pewter as he apprenticed as a young man to become a Journeyman Electrician, showcasing his versatility and thirst for knowledge. He held deep admiration for craftsmen of the past and carried on their legacy through his honest business practices, marked by profound knowledge and fairness. Even as his health wavered, Frank's drive never faltered. Whether customizing his beloved Mustang cars or meticulously assembling model cars, he exemplified a relentless work ethic and a restless spirit. A devoted father and husband, Frank's legacy is not only in his craftsmanship but also in the lasting love and pride he instilled in those around him. jill powell 7/28/2024

German Guild Cup

I am very pleased to offer this awesome 11 1/4" tall guild cup from Germany. It is two pieces and threads together beneath the cup. This piece is unmarked, but is nicely engraved with grapes and vines over text on two sides. The one side translates "Callenberg 13 May 1845." Callenberg is a municipality in the district of Zwickua in Saxony, which has a present population of 5,500. My translator indicated the other side roughly reads "Dedicated to the Right Honorable Guild of Hosiery Makers in Rusdorf on their 100th Jubilee Celebration from the Honorable Guild of Hosiery Makers of Callenberg on the 13th of May 1845." The base diameter of the cup is 4 7/8" in diameter and the lip is 5 5/8". Other than a small nick here and there, the rare guild cup is in excellent condition.
