About the Item
William Spratling (born Sept. 22, 1900, Sonyea, N.Y., U.S.—died Aug. 8, 1967, near Taxco, Mex.) was an American designer and architect, who spent more than 30 years in Mexico developing and promoting the silvercraft that made the city of Taxco famous.
A graduate of the New York Fine Arts Institute and Auburn University in Alabama (where he studied architecture), Spratling taught art and architecture at Tulane University, New Orleans, LA, for eight years before going to Mexico in 1927. For two years he taught at the National Autonomous University of Mexico in Mexico City (1927–29) and then settled in Taxco, an old silver town (founded in 1528) that had long been in decay. He befriended silver artisans from all over Mexico and began the design of silver jewelry, artwork, tableware, and tea sets,
