FAQs

Celtic revival silver draws upon ancient insular art traditions, incorporating traditional motifs such as interlace, knotwork, and zoomorphic elements like dragons into modern silversmithing, particularly popular during the 19th and 20th centuries.

These items are traditionally crafted from solid sterling silver, typically marked with standard purity guarantees like the British lion passant, and formed using a combination of spinning, casting for complex handles, and hand-chasing or engraving.

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

Antique silver pieces can be incorporated into modern spaces by using them as functional vessels, such as vases for fresh florals, or by contrasting their metallic sheen against matte textures like stone, linen, and raw wood.

Sterling silver should be cleaned periodically using a specialist non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cloth to remove tarnish, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip away desirable patination.
