George Adams was an English silversmith who worked in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He was a well-respected craftsman who produced a range of high-quality silverware, including tea sets, flatware, and decorative pieces. Adams worked in London, where he had his own workshop and was a member of the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths. He was active from around 1770 to 1820 and is known for his finely crafted and ornate designs. Some of Adams's most notable works include a set of silver plates that he made for King George III and a silver tea set that was presented to Queen Charlotte by the City of London.
