Growing up, I loved going to visit my maternal grandmother. She was a very elegant woman, a wonderful cook, and her home was always beautifully decorated. The two things I eagerly looked forward to on each visit were sitting on her velvet sofa – a very long, tufted piece in a deep eggplant color, and admiring her sterling silver tea service. The shining silver reflected light and I thought the service was truly wonderful. Holiday luncheons and dinners always meant the good silver would be used, even at the children’s table.

These fond memories are etched in my mind and spurred me to launch The Memphis Silver Lady. My goal was to clean and polish silver for people so they could create their own memories and pass down traditions. And, we love to share ideas on how to incorporate silver into everyday lives.
