FAQs

Butt markers originated in the late 19th and early 20th centuries during the height of Edwardian organised game shooting, where they were used to randomly assign shooting positions, known as butts or pegs, to members of a shooting party.

These items were predominantly crafted from sterling silver using hinged leaf mechanisms similar to a penknife or fan, often featuring gilt interiors and fully articulated numbered numbered leaves.

Authenticity is verified through clear British hallmarks indicating the assay office, date letter corresponding to the Edwardian period, and sterling silver standard, alongside crisp hand-engraved numbers on the articulating leaves.

This piece can be displayed on a study desk, within a glass cabinet, or styled alongside books and desk accessories to add historical interest and tactile intrigue to a room.

Maintain sterling silver items by storing them in low-humidity environments, handling them with clean hands to prevent skin oils from accelerating tarnish, and cleaning them infrequently with a specialist non-abrasive silver cloth.
