FAQs

The Fiddle and Thread pattern is a traditional 19th-century flatware design characterised by a violin-shaped handle termination bordered by a raised thread motif.

Authentic Victorian egg spoons are predominantly crafted from sterling silver, hallmarked with assay office marks, date letters, and makers marks.

Authenticity is verified by examining hallmarks stamped into the metal, checking for traditional weight and balance, and observing period-appropriate wear patterns.

Antique silver spoons add historic character to contemporary dining schemes when used functionally for breakfast service or displayed in glass cabinets.

Preservation requires gentle hand washing with non-abrasive cloths and mild soap, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip the natural oxidisation from detailed recesses.
