FAQs

Art Nouveau silver mounted items, produced predominantly between 1890 and 1910, are characteristically decorated with organic forms, swirling whiplash curves, and naturalistic motifs applied over leather, wood, or glass foundations.

Late Victorian purses typically featured durable calfskin or morocco leather bodies lined with silk or velvet, fitted with hand-worked sterling silver corner mounts, cartouches, and mechanical clasps.

Authentic British silver mounts feature complete set assay hallmarks, including a lion passant for sterling silver, a town mark, a date letter, and a makers mark stamped into the metal surface.

These small decorative pieces are best displayed in glass cloches, placed on vanity trays on a bedside table, or arranged alongside antique books on a shelf.

Clean silver components using a dry microfibre polishing cloth to avoid chemical residue on surrounding leather. Preserve leather with specialised, neutral wax-based conditioners applied sparingly.
