FAQs

Georgian silver is characterised by classical proportions, refined craftsmanship, and often heavy ornamentation reflecting the neoclassical tastes of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

These pieces were typically crafted from sterling silver or Old Sheffield Plate, featuring soldered wirework, hand-formed arches, and cast decorative elements such as ball feet and central loop handles.

Authenticity is determined by examining hallmarkssuch as the makers mark, city mark, standard mark, and date letteralongside observing appropriate wear patterns and traditional hand-fabrication methods.

It can be integrated into contemporary dining settings as a functional table accessory or displayed on open shelving and sideboard tops as a polished metallic accent.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly using specialised non-abrasive silver polish, handled with soft cloths or cotton gloves to prevent skin oils from causing tarnishing, and stored in a low-humidity environment.
