He became a silversmith by chance after dabbling in metalwork, and quickly found success.  He was known for his commissions for the Swedish royal family and even fashioning a humidor for Winston Churchill’s famed cigars. Atelier Borgia  exhibited at the world fair in Chicago in 1933 and some of the pieces have been collected by the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
