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.

Gladenbeck Foundry

Founded by Carl Gustav Hermann Gladenbeck in 1851, the Gladenbeck Foundry was relocated to Berlin, Germany in 1857. In 1888 it became the Aktien-Gesellschaft H. Gladenbeck und Sohn under the directorship of Hermann Gladenbeck and sons Oskar and Alfred. It was operated run by various family members and shareholders until the first quarter of the 20th century. For further reading, including examples of their cachet and signatures, see "Bronzes: Sculptors & Founders, 1800-1930, Vol IV", Harold Berman, Abage Chicago, 1980.
