William Hazen Rogers (born May 13, 1801) was an American master silversmith and a pioneer in the silver-plate industry and whose work and name have survived to the present day. Rogers together with his two brothers and, later, his son was responsible for more than 100 patterns of silver and silver-plated cutlery and serving dishes. Many of Roger's designs were influenced by Louis XIV-style patterns of the 17th and 18th century in France, and he was best known for his Elberon pattern and "Presidential" cutlery series. Rogers partnered with other silversmiths at times, and his company and trademarks were eventually taken over by larger companies. ==Early life== Rogers was born on on a farm on May 13, 1801, to Sarah Reynolds (born 1777; date of death unknown) and Asa Rogers (born 1798; died 1824 in Hartford, Connecticut). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「William Hazen Rogers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
