FAQs

Edwardian silver card cases were used by the upper classes during the early 20th century to hold visiting cards, an essential social custom of the period.

These cases were typically crafted from solid sterling silver, often featuring detailed machine engraving, hand-chased scrollwork, and a central blank cartouche for monogramming.

Authenticity is verified by checking for British hallmarks stamped into the metal, which indicate the assay office, date letter, and sterling silver standard.

These compact items can be displayed on a mantelpiece, inside a glass cabinet, or styled on a coffee table as a historical decorative object.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly using a soft microfiber cloth and specialised silver polish, avoiding abrasive materials that can damage the engraving.
