FAQs

Silver mugs and tankards from the George V era reflect traditional British silversmithing techniques, often characterised by functional forms, understated decoration, and high standards of sterling silver production regulated by regional assay offices.

These items are typically constructed from solid sterling silver, often formed by spinning or shaping sheet metal with soldered handles, and frequently feature a gilt interior finish known as vermeil.

Authenticity is verified by examining the hallmarks stamped into the metal, which typically include the makers mark, the sterling silver standard mark, the assay office mark (such as the anchor for Birmingham), and a date letter corresponding to the specific year of production.

Antique silver items add a layer of historical contrast to contemporary spaces and can be displayed on open shelving, sideboards, or mantelpieces as polished decorative accents or functional vessels.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly using a specialist non-abrasive silver cloth or mild detergent in warm water, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip away desirable patina and damage historical hallmarks.
