Esther Stevens Brazer (April 7, 1898 – October 30, 1945) was an American historian, noted especially for her interest in painted tinware.
[4] She was active as a researcher for most of the last twenty years of her life,[5] and was a collector and teacher in addition to being a writer.
[6] She was among those experts invited to contribute to The Magazine ANTIQUES under the editorship of Alice Winchester.
After her death, the Historical Society of Early American Decoration was founded in her honor by a group of her students to propagate her work.
[4] A small box decorated by Brazer in the style of a book, similar to works made by Zachariah Stevens, is held in the collection of the National Museum of American History.
