In a world dominated by instant gratification and ease over long-term satisfaction, it's no surprise some collectors are pushing back. It can also be incredibly beautiful, like Whiting Manufacturing Company's rare "Lily of the Valley" pattern. Though it is not a household name today, silver experts put Whiting Manufacturing in its heyday on par with Tiffany & Co. and Gorham. The ever-popular Lily of the Valley pattern began in 1885 and was produced in the brand's North Attleboro, Massachusetts factory. Crafted from genuine sterling silver, the line is beloved for its delicate bell-shaped flora, evoking equal parts whimsy and luxury.
