FAQs

The Cymric style, introduced by Liberty & Co. at the turn of the twentieth century, draws heavily on Celtic revival motifs, featuring hand-hammered surfaces, organic forms, and often enamel or turquoise inlays.

These items were predominantly handcrafted from sterling silver using traditional smithing techniques such as raising, planishing, and hand-hammering to create textured, organic finishes.

Authentic pieces typically bear specific makers marks for Liberty & Co., distinct designer ciphers such as those for Archibald Knox, along with standard British hallmark stamps indicating the year and assay office.

Displaying the piece as a standalone decorative object on a sideboard or mantelpiece introduces historic craftsmanship and tactile metallic texture into contemporary spaces.

Preserve antique silver by storing it in a stable environment away from direct sunlight, avoiding harsh chemical dips, and occasionally cleaning it gently with a soft microfibre cloth and specialized silver polish.
