FAQs

The William IV period spans from 1830 to 1837, sitting between the Regency and Victorian eras, and is characterised by robust classical proportions and ornate detailing.

Authentic period pieces are typically crafted from sterling silver, hallmarked to indicate the standard of purity, silver content, and the assay office of origin.

Authentic pieces feature crisp hallmarks stamped into the metal, indicating the makers mark, sterling standard, date letter, and duty mark.

Integrating period silver into modern tablescapes adds textural contrast and historical depth, often paired with minimalist porcelain and crisp linens.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly using non-abrasive silver polish and a soft cloth, avoiding harsh chemical dips that can strip the natural oxidisation from crevices.
