FAQs

Art Nouveau design is characterised by organic forms, sinuous asymmetrical lines, and motifs inspired by nature, such as floral elements and whiplash curves, which dominated decorative arts from the late 19th century until the First World War.

These items were typically crafted from solid sterling silver, often featuring hand-repousse work, chased detailing, or engraved floral motifs, accompanied by linked chain handles and internal silk or leather linings.

Authentic pieces usually bear stamped hallmarks indicating the silver purity standard, the assay office, the makers mark, and a date letter corresponding to the specific year of testing and manufacture.

Such decorative objects are often displayed on a mantelpiece, inside a glass-fronted cabinet, or styled on a tray atop a coffee table to add metallic texture and historical contrast to contemporary spaces.

Preservation requires storing items in a tarnish-resistant cloth away from humidity and cleaning them sparingly with a soft microfibre cloth and specialised silver polish, avoiding harsh abrasives that can wear down fine engravings.
