FAQs

Clean sterling silver gently with a specialist microfibre polishing cloth, avoiding harsh abrasive dips that can strip away the desirable historic patina and subtle oxidisation.

Small antique silver containers can be displayed as decorative accents on a coffee table, dressing table, or within a glass-fronted cabinet to add historic metallic texture.

Authentic pieces feature standard foreign silver hallmarks alongside official UK import sponsors marks and town assay marks, such as Chester, applied upon entry into Britain.

These pieces are typically crafted from sterling silver, utilising repousse and chasing techniques to create intricate, raised floral and figural designs on the surface.

Hanau, Germany, became prominent in the 18th and 19th centuries for producing high-quality silverwares, often modelled on earlier styles and imported into the UK with proper assay marks.
