Our inspiration is drawn from the timeless designs of renown Lexington, Kentucky silversmith Asa Blanchard (1787-1838). A deep appreciation of all things Kentucky -- horses, hospitality and a never-ending supply of distilled spirits, especially bourbon -- led us to re-discover the fine designs of Asa Blanchard. Our aim is to reproduce some of his classic pieces and create new designs based on elements of his originals to produce "The Asa Blanchard Collection"® by Lexington Silver®.
And for our second act, at the request of one of our favorite customers, Lexington Silver® has re-introduced an all-time favorite -- the stirrup cup -- with both traditional and newly minted varieties. Heads up, they are a beautiful addition to any bar. When it's time for a drink, they stand on their heads for your favorite beverage. Cheers! |
The Stirrup Cup in action! Lexington Silver has the world's largest assortment of styles currently available. These mirror-finish beauties look like sterling silver but without the upkeep. Truly tarnish free! Seen below, the foal observes as the stallion enjoys the pour.
ASA BLANCHARD COLLECTIONBefore Kentucky's celebrated julep cup, there was Asa's beaker -- a small silver cup shaped like the charred-oak barrels used to age the finest bourbon.

STIRRUP CUPSOften associated with fox hunting, the Stirrup Cup design has evolved. With the cup side down, it becomes a work of art; when inverted, it's time for a drink!
