FAQs

Bright cut engraving is a surface decoration technique popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, characterised by faceted cuts made with a narrow chisel that reflect light from various angles.

Georgian sugar tongs were typically hand-wrought from sterling silver using hammers, stakes, and gravers for engraving, often shaped from a single strip of metal bent into a spring arch.

Authentic pieces bear a series of British hallmarks stamped directly into the metal, which typically include a makers mark, a lion passant indicating sterling standard, a leopards head for London, and a date letter.

Antique silver can be displayed functionally on dining tables, within glass-fronted cabinets, or on serving trays to introduce subtle metallic textures and historical character into contemporary spaces.

Antique silver should be cleaned infrequently using a mild, non-abrasive silver polish and a soft microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip desirable patination and engraving detail.
