FAQs

Art Deco design, prominent in the 1920s and 1930s, is characterised by geometric symmetry, stylised motifs such as shells and fans, and a streamlined aesthetic that merged modernity with luxury.

These pieces typically consist of a base metal, such as brass, copper, or nickel silver, which is then electroplated with a layer of pure silver, often featuring cast or applied decorative borders.

Authentic pieces often feature makers marks, hallmark stamps indicating silver plate quality (such as EPNS), weight consistency, and natural signs of ageing like minor surface scratching or subtle tarnish.

A vintage tray can be styled on a coffee table or sideboard to group small decorative objects, crystal decanters, or glassware, adding reflective metallic texture to the scheme.

Clean silver plate gently using a specialised non-abrasive silver polish and a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip the plating over time.
