Chrisford & Norris were active silversmiths working in Birmingham during the early 20th century, producing a range of small domestic and personal silver items. Operating within the city’s historic Jewellery Quarter, their workshop contributed to the long tradition of English silver craftsmanship that Birmingham is known for. Pieces bearing the C&N hallmark typically show neat proportions, practical design, and the reliable hand‑finishing associated with makers of the period.
Although not a large firm, Chrisford & Norris earned a reputation for creating well‑made sterling silver goods suited to everyday use, from small tableware to personal accessories. Today, their vintage silver is appreciated by collectors for its authentic Birmingham origin, understated style, and the charm of early 20th‑century English workmanship.
