Second generation silversmith Henry Hopkins III has worked on silver for the White House, The Phillips Collection, and Homewood House. In this two – hour program Mr. Hopkins will take you on a tour of the silver collection of Hammond-Harwood House and describe the conservation methods he used on an 18th century urn and 19th century butter dish, both original to the house.
