FAQs

During the Edwardian era, silversmiths produced small functional items, known as novelty silver, in various naturalistic forms including animals and birds. Swan-shaped pin cushions were popular decorative yet practical sewing accessories crafted predominantly between 1900 and 1910.

These items typically feature a cast or stamped sterling silver body filled with a velvet, plush, or emery cloth cushion designed to hold sewing pins and needles while preventing rust.

Authentic British pieces bear official hallmarks indicating the silver purity standard, city assay office mark, makers initials, and date letter corresponding to the Edwardian period.

A silver pin cushion can be styled as an accent piece atop a dressing table tray, displayed inside a glass curio cabinet, or arranged as part of a vignette on an office desk.

The silver shell should be gently polished with a soft cotton cloth and specialized silver polish, taking care to avoid getting liquid cleaners onto the fabric cushion interior.
