Barck and five fellow female graduates of Louis J. Millet's decorative design course at the Art Institute of Chicago, the Kalo Shop rose to be the most important American Arts & Crafts silversmith studio in the United States. The shop was founded on Millet's teachings and they adopted the motto "beautiful, useful, and enduring" for their wares. The shop originally created burnt wood, leatherwork, and other decorative arts along with jewelry. Many items from the earliest period are quite scarce and, to date, no one has discovered a surviving example of one of their early successes: an Arabian-cutout-decorated shopping bag in brown and yellow leather. Barck married George Welles in 1905. Welles was a coal merchant and an amateur silversmith. It was Welles who encouraged Barck to focus more on objects made of copper and silver. In 1906, Barck's sister purchased a large home in Park Ridge, Illinois and soon transferred ownership to the Kalo Shop in return for stock in the company. This location served as a hub for the Kalo Arts & Crafts Community. Please make note Free Shipping as well as upgraded shipping methods are for lower 48 US Destinations.
