About us

silla was born out of a passion for beautiful objects: special pieces with aesthetic and historical significance. In 2009, after years of collecting, Andrew Silla and his wife Grace began to work privately with clients from their residence in Southern Maryland. Quickly outgrowing the space, the business was moved from Maryland to Pennsylvania in 2012 and after several warehouse location changes it was firmly settled in the present brick-and-mortar location in downtown Shippensburg.

The 9000 square foot brick-and-mortar gallery is home to a large collection of works of art and estate jewelry. We specialize in sculpture circa 1860 through 1930 with a particular emphasis on the Animaliers and as such the gallery always has a very large collection of exceptional European and American sculpture available on display.

VINTAGE GRADUATED SAN-MARCO CHOKER NECKLACE WITH FLORENTINE FINISH
By Carlo Weingrill, Italy | circa 1960-80
Item # 109QJS24D 

A sophisticated choker necklace by the Italian jeweler Carlo Weingrill, this incredibly refined piece features a graduated San-Marco link with a crisp Florentine finish over all visible surfaces and a bright finish on the back. The necklace is released with an invisible press-button that operates the sprung tongue clasp, this further secured with a swinging safety clasp. Note the very fine hand fabrication of all elements and the sturdy invisible pins that allow the individual links to lightly rotate for comfort. The firm of Carlo Weingrill has produced pieces of breathtaking quality since they were founded in 1879. From Bvlgari's iconic tubogas to the many creations they made for Tiffany & Co, Weingrill goldsmiths have consistently been trusted to produce exquisite designs for Italy's top jewelry houses.
