About Greg Arbutine
Owner of The Silver Museum LLC
The Silver Museum LLC is owned by Greg Arbutine who has been in the silver buying industry since 1972. When Greg's father retired from the United States Air Force in 1972, the Master Sergeant opened a small coin shop in Belleair Bluffs, Florida. Over the years, the numismatics store branched off into the jewelry and also the sterling silver flatware matching business.
Since age 8, Greg was fascinated with the business and worked part time hours until age 22. When Greg graduated from The University of South Florida with his Bachelor's Degree in Science specializing in Business Administration, he decided to go all in with family silver business and work there full time and make this his life's work and vocation.
​
At age 25, Greg's mother recognized his huge contributions to the business and his incredible talents and made him the CEO of the silver side of the corporations. Greg led the companies into a 32 year era of unparalleled resounding success.
During those decades, Greg purchased hundreds of millions of dollars of pre-owned sterling silverware and hollowware items including famous makers and silversmiths like Tiffany, Georg Jensen, Buccellati, Gorham, Reed & Barton, Lunt, International, Alvin, Towle, Wallace, Kirk Stieff, and many other great brand names of silver. Greg also helped millions of customers to start their sets of silverware and locate their
missing pieces to their existing silver patterns.
​
In 2021, Greg decided to sell his half of the original family business to his brother and decided to relocate from Florida to Utah where he and his husband and son would enjoy their passions for
hiking, the performing arts, snow skiing and traveling.
​
Even though Greg was set for life and didn't have to work another day ever again if he didn't want to,
Greg still had an undying strong and deep passion for silver industry and for buying and selling.
He decided to jump back into the industry and set up his own company out west.
