FAQs

A pounce pot is a small container used in writing to sprinkle powdered resin, cuttlefish bone, or sand onto freshly inked paper to absorb excess moisture and prevent smudging before blotting paper became widely available.

These items were traditionally fashioned from sterling silver using techniques such as hand-raising, repousse, chasing, and piercing for the shaker lid, often bearing distinct hallmarks indicating the assay office and date of manufacture.

Authenticity is typically verified by examining the struck hallmarks on the metal, which include the makers mark, the standard mark for sterling silver, the town or assay office mark, and the duty mark where applicable.

Such decorative objects serve as sophisticated accents when displayed on a desk, bookshelf, or mantelpiece, adding a touch of historical craftsmanship to contemporary workspaces or traditional displays.

Antique silver should be cleaned infrequently using a specialised, non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cloth to maintain its patina, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can damage intricate chasing and surface details.
