FAQs

An Edwardian silver parasol handle is a decorative metal topper produced between 1901 and 1910, designed to attach onto the wooden shaft of a ladys sunshade or umbrella.

These handles were commonly crafted from sterling silver, hallmarked gold, carved ivory, porcelain, or tortoiseshell, occasionally accented with inset gemstones, enamel, or glass eyes for figurative designs.

Authentic pieces feature official British assay office hallmarks, including a purity mark, city mark, date letter corresponding to the early 20th century, and a makers or retailers stamp such as Asprey.

Small silver collectables can be displayed inside original presentation cases on a bookshelf, arranged within a glass cabinet, or mounted on custom acrylic stands as sculptural desk accessories.

Silver accessories should be dusted with a soft microfibre cloth and gently polished using a non-abrasive silver cloth, avoiding submersion in liquid chemicals that might damage fitted box linings or inset glass elements.
