Old Sheffield Plate is an early form of silver plating created by fusing a layer of silver to a copper base, predominantly produced from the mid-18th century until the mid-19th century before electroplating was introduced.

These items are constructed using the fusion-plating technique, bonding sterling silver to a core of copper, often featuring hand-applied silver wire borders and cast handles or feet.

Authentic pieces often reveal a faint yellowish tint of exposed copper along cut edges or high-wear areas, and typically lack makers marks or feature early makers stamps rather than standard silver hallmarks.

These pieces can be utilised as functional barware on a drinks trolley or as decorative vases for floral arrangements, adding a layer of historical metallic texture to contemporary spaces.

Preserve the plating by cleaning infrequently with a non-abrasive silver polish, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip the thin silver layer and expose the underlying copper.
