The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Old Sheffield Plate is a metalworking process developed in the 18th century where a sheet of silver was fused onto copper under heat and pressure before being crafted into hollowware.

Georgian coffee jugs were predominantly constructed from fused silver and copper plate or sterling silver, often featuring carved wooden or ivory handles to insulate the user from heat.

Authentic pieces often exhibit silver bleeding where the underlying copper shows through from wear, visible seams from construction, and unplated silver inserts beneath engraved monograms.

An antique silver coffee jug can be displayed as a decorative accent on a dining room sideboard, open kitchen shelving, or a curated mantelpiece alongside contemporary ceramics.

Clean gently using a soft cloth and non-abrasive silver polish, avoiding harsh chemicals or over-polishing which can wear away the thin layer of fused silver, and never submerge wooden elements in water.
