(weighable silver) Provenance: Estate of Violeta Judell Van Ronzelen, Lima, Peru; New Orleans, Louisiana. Notes: Clemens Friedell was born in New Orleans on December 19, 1872, the son of Slovakian immigrants Ferdinand and Marie (Halbedl) Friedel, who had arrived in the U.S. less than two years earlier. They soon returned to Europe, settling in Vienna, where Clemens was trained as a silversmith. His family returned to the U.S. in 1889, settling in Galveston, Texas. Clemens began working as a craftsman at Gorham in Providence, Rhode Island in 1901, where he worked for seven years producing pieces for their prestigious Martele line. In 1911 he settled in Pasadena, California, securing his fame as a master craftsman by producing the 107-piece "Orange Blossom" dinner service for brewer Edward R. Maier. His shop was noted for its sporting and equestrian trophies. He retired briefly to Texas in the 1920s, but returned to Pasadena by the end of the decade and re-established his shop, producing handsome everyday silver items until his death on October 21, 1963.

A Clemens Friedell Partial Gilt Silver Trophy, Pasadena, California, 1916 Marks: STERLING, FRIEDELL, PASADENA 8-1/2 x 4 inches (21.6 x 10.2 cm) 15 ounces (gross) Inscription: Gerland Club Trophy, AWARDED TO TOD FORD FOR BEST GENERAL EFFICIENCY AT U.S. MILITARY TRAINING CAMP, MONTEREY, CALIF. 1916. American Presentation and Trophy Silver from the Collection of J.D. Parks The tulip-form cup on shaped foot, chased repoussé U.S. Military crest to one side and inscription to reverse, gilt bowl interior. The U.S. Military Training Camps began in the summer of 1913 as an experimental training program for young college men. Extensive publicity of these camps developed the nation's awareness of the preparedness movement. Theodore Roosevelt was a great advocate of the camps stating, "The military tent, where boys sleep side by side, will rank next to the public school among the great agents of democracy." On a lighter note, referring to the volunteer trainees at the camp held in Monterey in 1916, General J. Franklin Bell is quoted describing "all the hot bloods of San Francisco. I saw more Rolls-Royces and other fine cars around there than I have ever seen collected." Leonard Mosley in Marshall, Hero for Our Times, (New York: Hearst Books, 1982), pp.45-46. HID01801242017
