FAQs

Charles Horner pieces from Halifax, England, are renowned for their distinctive Art Nouveau and Arts and Crafts designs, frequently featuring enamelling, Celtic motifs, and high-grade silver work.

These items were typically handcrafted from sterling silver, often incorporating hallmarked stamps, paste stones, glass elements, or traditional vitreous enamel.

Authenticity is verified by locating the official CH makers mark, alongside assay office marks, sterling silver hallmarks, and characteristic manufacturing techniques of the period.

These versatile pieces can be pinned to lapels, scarves, or hats to add a touch of historic craftsmanship and metallic detail to modern outfits.

Preservation requires storing pieces in anti-tarnish bags, avoiding abrasive cleaning agents, and gently using a microfibre cloth to maintain the natural silver patina.
