Planishing is a metalworking technique involving light hammering with a specialized hammer to smooth and shape metal while creating a faceted texture. This aesthetic became particularly prominent during the Arts and Crafts movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Antique frames of this type are typically constructed from solid sterling silver mounted over a wooden or velvet-backed wooden core with an easel support. The silver components are often hand-hammered and joined with traditional soldering techniques.

Authentic pieces are identified by clear hallmarks stamped into the silver, usually indicating the standard of purity, the assay office, the makers mark, and a date letter. Additionally, genuine age is shown through natural tarnishing, micro-scratches, and hand-crafted irregularities.

These frames work well on mantels, side tables, or bookshelves, adding a reflective metallic texture that contrasts with warm wood and matte surfaces. Mixing them with contemporary monochrome photography creates a balanced bridge between old and new.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly using a specialized silver cloth to avoid removing the delicate hallmarks or the characterful patination. Avoid abrasive dips or harsh chemical pastes, and store the item in a dry environment to prevent excessive oxidisation.
