Celebrating Oliver: Rescue Dog Inspires Flatware and Giving Back
September holds a special place in our hearts at Liberty Tabletop - it’s the month we celebrate the adoption anniversary of Oliver, our beloved office pup and the inspiration behind our Oliver flatware pattern!
Oliver was rescued two years ago on September 1st from Anita’s Stevens Swan Humane Society in Utica, NY. A silly and handsome American Staffordshire Terrier and American Pit Bull mix, he quickly stole the hearts of our co-owner Matt Roberts and his wife, Alice. From the moment Alice saw him and gave him belly rubs, she knew he was the one! Since then, Oliver has filled their lives with joy and has become an important part of our Liberty Tabletop family, too.
Oliver’s story inspired us to create the Oliver flatware pattern, part of our “Affinity” collection of one-of-a-kind designs that celebrate the passions and connections that mean the most to us. Like all of our patterns, Oliver is crafted from 18/10 stainless steel and proudly made in the USA.
Because Oliver is a rescue, we wanted his namesake pattern to give back to animals still waiting for their forever homes. That’s why a portion of every Oliver flatware purchase helps support animal shelters and rescues. This September, in honor of his adoption anniversary, we directed our support to Anita’s Stevens Swan Humane Society, the very shelter that brought Oliver into our lives.
We were also proud to join forces with Mohawk Valley Gives, the region’s largest day of community giving, to help amplify our impact. Together, these efforts provide much-needed support for current and future rescues, carrying Oliver’s legacy of love forward.
Oliver may have been the inspiration for a flatware pattern, but more importantly, he’s a reminder of the joy rescue animals bring—and the difference we can make when we give them a second chance.
