Charles Osborne was a designer of patterns for silver objects who was active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was employed by the Whiting Manufacturing Company and then Tiffanys. In 1888, he returned to Whiting to eventually become a company vice-president. Osborne patented designs and an improved method of shaping ornamental borders of silverware. Osborne was a member of the Art Students League of New York City and was active in New York's community of artists, although for part of his career he resided in Attleboro, Ma.
A 1905 article from a North Attleboro, Ma., newspaper cast favorable judgement upon Osborne when it commented: "the work of Mr. Charles Osborne in the production of graceful art objects in silver have placed him among the foremost designers of the world of silversmiths.
