FAQs

Georgian silver gilt pieces date from the reigns of Kings George I to IV (1714-1830), a period marked by refined craftsmanship and the widespread use of vermeil, which involves coating sterling silver with a thin layer of gold for both aesthetic enhancement and protection against tarnishing.

These items are crafted from sterling silver, conforming to the British standard of 92.5% purity, and finished with a fire-gilding technique where an amalgam of gold and mercury is applied and heated to bond the gold to the silver base.

Authentic pieces typically feature a combination of makers marks, the assay office mark, the date letter corresponding to the Georgian period, and the lion passant denoting sterling silver, alongside hand-engraved details and appropriate wear patterns consistent with age.

Antique silver gilt spoons can be displayed within a glass-fronted cabinet, mounted in a shadow box as wall art, or utilised thoughtfully during formal dinner settings to add a layer of historical texture and metallic warmth to a contemporary tablescape.

Silver gilt should be cleaned sparingly using non-abrasive, specialised silver dips or microfibre cloths, avoiding harsh scrubbing that can wear away the delicate gold wash, and stored in tarnish-resistant cloth in a low-humidity environment.
