Thomas Smily was a London silversmith who was active during the Victorian era. He was born in 1827, the younger son of William Smily, who was also a silversmith. Thomas Smily apprenticed to his father and was granted his freedom by the Goldsmiths' Company in 1848. He then worked with his father for the firm of A.B. Savory & Sons.

In 1858, Thomas Smily's brother, William Robert Smily, died unexpectedly. Thomas Smily took over the management of the family business, which continued to trade under the name of W.R. Smily. The firm specialized in the production of high-quality silver tableware, including candlesticks, tea sets, and dessert services. They also produced a variety of other items, such as christening cups, wedding presents, and inkstands.

Thomas Smily was a talented silversmith and his work is highly regarded by collectors. His pieces are known for their fine craftsmanship and more... elegant design. He was also a member of the Worshipful Company of Goldsmiths and served as Master of the Company in 1882.

Thomas Smily retired from the silversmithing trade in 1883 and emigrated to Canada. He died in 1918 at the age of 91. less...
