FAQs

French silver-plated champagne coolers gained prominence in the 19th and early 20th centuries as luxury dining accessories, produced by notable silversmiths and manufacturers such as St Medard to serve chilled wine at formal banquets.

These items are typically constructed from a base metal alloy, such as brass, copper, or nickel silver, which is then electroplated with a layer of fine silver and finished with cast or applied handles.

Authenticity is generally identified by makers marks, hallmarks, or manufacturer stampingssuch as those of St Medardstamped onto the base or rim, alongside the weight and quality of the silver plating and base metal.

Such pieces can be repurposed as floral vases on a sideboard, displayed on a bar cart, or used functionally during hosting events to add a touch of metallic contrast to modern schemes.

Silver plate should be cleaned using a non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cloth to prevent wearing down the thin layer of silver, and stored in a dry environment to minimise tarnish.
