The firm was established in Birmingham in the late 19th century (the first known sterling silver hallmark was entered in Birmingham Assay Office in 1882). The founders were Thomas Henry Daniel (died 1897) and Thomas Richard Arter (died c. 1915) and was active at Globe Nevada Silver Works, Highgate Street, Birmingham as makers of brass, nickel-silver and electro-plated spoons, forks, ladles, etc. (1892). The firm had also a London showroom at 62 Holborn Viaduct (until 1896) and later at 98 Hatton Garden. Sterling silver hallmarks were entered in Sheffield Assay Office (1906) and London Assay Office (1913). Both these hallmarks were scarcely used. In 1920 the firm was converted into a limited liability company and became Daniel & Arter Ltd. The business was closed in the 1930s and their dies were purchased by W.J.Baker & Sons Ltd. The main activity of the firm was the manufacture of a wide array of silverplate flatware and holloware marketed under the trade name of NEVADA SILVER (the best known) and others as ALUMINUM SILVER, ARGENLINE, BENGAL SILVER, BRAZILIAN SILVER, BURMAROID, CONNAUGHT, INDIAN SILVER, JAPANESE SILVER, LAXEY SILVER Payment I ASK THAT PAYMENT BE MADE WITHIN 12 HOURS OF AUCTIONS CLOSE.
