FAQs

Antique silver should be cleaned infrequently using a specialised non-abrasive silver polish and a soft microfibre cloth to remove tarnish while preserving the original patina and fine surface details.

Antique silver pieces can be incorporated into contemporary spaces by placing them as reflective accent objects on sideboards, mantels, or open shelving, creating a sophisticated contrast against clean, minimalist surfaces.

Authentic pieces are identified through official hallmarks stamped into the metal, which typically include a makers mark, a standard mark indicating sterling purity, a town assay office mark, and a date letter corresponding to the year of manufacture.

These items are typically crafted from sterling silver, containing 925 parts per thousand of pure silver, and were manufactured using traditional methods such as spinning, casting, hammering, and detailed hand-chasing or repousse work.

Victorian silver refers to silverware and decorative metal objects manufactured during the reign of Queen Victoria from 1837 to 1901, a period characterised by industrial advancement and diverse revivalist design styles.
