FAQs

Numbered napkin rings became popular in middle and upper-class Victorian households to ensure that family members or guests retained the same napkin throughout the laundry week.

These items are typically constructed from a base metal, such as nickel silver or Britannia metal, which is then electroplated with a thin layer of silver and finished with hand-engraved detailing.

Authenticity is identified through traditional maker marks, the quality of the hand-engraving, the weight of the metal, and signs of natural oxidisation and wear consistent with age.

They can be used functionally during formal dinner parties to add a touch of historical character to contemporary table linens, or displayed within a glass-front cabinet.

Silver-plated items should be cleaned gently using a specialist non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can damage the underlying plate.
