FAQs

Whisky tots became popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as personal serving vessels for spirits, often placed on dining tables or sideboards for guests to pour individual measures.

These vessels were typically crafted from lead crystal or clear blown glass, featuring hallmarked sterling silver mounts, collars, and hinged lids.

Authenticity is usually confirmed by examining the silver hallmarks for date letters corresponding to the Edwardian period, alongside traditional star-cut bases and hand-finished glass manufacturing traits.

Such pieces can be displayed on a home bar or drinks trolley to introduce reflective textures and historic craftsmanship into a modern entertaining space.

Wash the glass gently in warm soapy water using a soft brush, and polish the silver mount sparingly with a non-abrasive cloth to avoid wearing down the hallmarks.
