FAQs

Silver pip trays, also known as fruit or grape dishes, were traditionally used at formal dining tables during the 19th and early 20th centuries to collect discarded fruit seeds and pips.

These items are typically crafted from sterling silver or silver plate, often featuring stamped hallmarks, shaped rims, and fitted presentation cases lined with silk or velvet.

Authentic pieces generally display legible maker marks, standard silver hallmarks indicating the assay office and date, and appropriate signs of age-related wear on both the silver and the original fitted box.

These small decorative items can be displayed on a sideboard, used as dressing table trinket trays, or incorporated into a dining table centrepiece arrangement.

Silver should be cleaned periodically using a specialised non-abrasive polish and a soft cloth, then stored in a tarnish-resistant environment or its original fitted case when not in use.
