  • SizeH 14 cm (6 in) x W 4 cm (2 in) x D 4 cm (2 in)

Repousse silver features designs hammered or pushed from the reverse side into relief, a technique famously mastered by American silversmiths such as S. Kirk & Son in Baltimore during the 19th century.

These pieces are crafted from solid sterling silver, typically containing 92.5 percent pure silver, shaped through casting, hand-hammering, and detailed chaser work to achieve high-relief floral motifs.

Authentic pieces usually bear maker marks, purity stamps such as sterling or 925, and exhibit natural patination, subtle hand-tool irregularities, and wear consistent with age.

Antique silver items add texture and reflective contrast when displayed on open shelving, integrated into modern dining settings, or housed within glass-front cabinets.

Preserve silver by washing it gently in warm water with mild soap, avoiding harsh abrasive dips, and storing it in anti-tarnish cloths or controlled environments to minimise oxidation.
