FAQs

A wine taster, or tastevin, is a traditional small shallow vessel used by vintners, merchants, and sommeliers to examine the colour, clarity, and quality of wine before casks were bottled.

These items were typically crafted from sterling silver using techniques such as repousse, chasing, and embossing to create intricate surface patterns and reflective indentations designed to catch candlelight.

Authentic pieces typically feature British hallmarks stamped into the metal, indicating the assay office, date letter, makers mark, and silver standard, alongside natural age-related patina and wear.

This piece can be styled as a decorative tabletop object on a sideboard, coffee table, or desk, adding a reflective metallic accent to both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Antique silver should be cleaned infrequently using a soft microfibre cloth and specialized silver polish, avoiding harsh abrasive compounds to preserve the underlying metal and subtle surface detail.
