Art Nouveau silver is characterised by organic, flowing lines, asymmetrical forms, and motifs inspired by natural plant and floral shapes, emerging strongly in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods.

These pieces were typically crafted from sterling silver using techniques such as hand-hammering, repousse, and casting, often bearing British hallmarks indicating the assay office and date.

Authenticity is verified through clear hallmarks, including a leopards head, anchor, or other assay office marks, alongside a makers mark and the lion passant denoting sterling standard silver.

Place the piece on a contemporary desk, mantelpiece, or coffee table to introduce a metallic accent and historical texture that contrasts against minimalist decor.

Maintain silver by storing it in low-humidity environments, handling it with clean hands to prevent tarnishing oils, and polishing infrequently with a specialist micro-abrasive cloth.
