Henry Steig (1906-1973) was an American self-taught metalsmith with training in art and sculpture. Described as a "Renaissance Man," Steig was a jazz musician, a commercial artist and cartoonist, a published writer, and a painter. In 1947, he began making Modernist jewelry, mostly in sterling silver, with great success and continued until his death.
