FAQs

An Edwardian silver sugar castor is a pierced vessel designed to sprinkle granulated or castor sugar over foodstuffs, crafted during the reign of King Edward VII between 1901 and 1910.

Sugar castors were primarily raised from solid sterling silver or silver plate, often featuring hand-chased, embossed, or spirally fluted decoration with a detachable perforated lid.

Authentic items bear complete British hallmark stamps, including the lion passant mark for sterling purity, an assay office symbol, a date letter corresponding to 1902, and a registered makers mark.

A silver castor can be placed on a dining room sideboard, integrated into a curated coffee table tray vignette, or arranged alongside crystal glassware on a drinks trolley.

Clean silver using a soft cotton cloth and a specialized silver polish, avoiding abrasive pads or harsh chemicals, and store in a dry environment to reduce oxidisation.
