FAQs

During the Edwardian period, literacy rates climbed and reading became a popular leisure activity, leading to an increase in the production of ornate stationery and reading accessories crafted from precious metals and gemstones.

Antique bookmarks were frequently fabricated from sterling silver, brass, or gold, often featuring handles or accents made from natural materials such as carnelian, mother-of-pearl, ivory, or bone.

Authentic pieces typically bear British hallmarks including a lion passant for sterling silver, a sponsors mark, a city assay mark, and a date letter corresponding to the specific year of testing.

Small antique desk accessories add character and tactile interest when displayed atop a stack of vintage books on a coffee table, within a glass-fronted cabinet, or on a traditional writing desk.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly with a non-abrasive silver cloth to maintain its patina, avoiding liquid dips that can harm embedded gemstones like carnelian or ruin historical oxidisation in engraved recesses.
