FAQs

Clean gently with a soft microfibre cloth designed for silver to maintain the natural patina and avoid abrasive polishes that can wear away fine engravings.

Placed on a mantelpiece or bookshelf, it adds a touch of metallic texture, historical interest, and global craftsmanship to contemporary styling.

Authentic pieces generally lack standard British hallmarks unless retailed in the UK, instead often featuring artisan signatures, maker marks, or tests for high-grade silver content.

These pieces were typically crafted using solid silver, often utilising repousse, chasing, and hand-engraving techniques to achieve high-relief decorative scenes.

Colonial Indian silver refers to items crafted in British India during the 19th and early 20th centuries, often featuring traditional local scenes combined with European forms.
