Tea caddies originated in the 17th century when tea was an expensive imported luxury, requiring secure, lockable containers to preserve its flavour and status.

Edwardian caddies were typically crafted from solid sterling silver, often featuring hand-hammered fluting, cast mounts, and intricate hallmarks stamped to verify the metal purity and assay office.

Authenticity is verified by checking for official hallmarks, including the makers mark, standard mark, assay office town mark, and date letter, alongside natural silver patina and appropriate wear.

An antique silver caddy can be displayed on a sideboard or mantelpiece as a polished focal point, contrasting effectively against matte textures or natural wood surfaces.

Silver should be cleaned infrequently with a specialist non-abrasive polish to preserve the hallmark details, stored in low-humidity environments, and handled with soft cloths to avoid scratching.
