  The Heinz shop used sterling silver applied as floral ornamentation to bronze. The objects were distinguished by a variety of patinas and machine-shaped bases-very different from the hammered look of most Arts and Crafts metal works. Despite the death of its founder Otto Heinz in 1918 at the age of 41, the company continued and produced a more modern line entitled Silver Crest.
