FAQs

Hanau silver refers to silver items manufactured in the German town of Hanau, predominantly during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, often created in the style of earlier master silversmiths.

These items were typically crafted from sterling or continental grade silver, utilising techniques such as casting, hand-chasing, and detailed engraving to render realistic textures.

Authentic pieces often bear pseudo-hallmarks or retailer marks rather than official standard town marks, alongside intricate hand-finished details and patination indicative of age.

They work effectively as curated accents on a dining table centre, within a glazed cabinet, or styled upon a mantelpiece to add a touch of historical character.

Silver should be cleaned infrequently using a non-abrasive, high-quality polish and a soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip the desirable oxidisation from recessed details.
