FAQs

Sampson Mordan was a renowned London silversmith and maker, famously associated with inventing the first propelling pencil and producing high-quality Victorian and Edwardian novelty silver items, including chatelaines, scent bottles, and detailed animal bookmarks.

These items were typically crafted from solid sterling silver using traditional manufacturing methods such as casting for figural finials and sheet rolling, hand-stamping, and engraving for the blade, followed by manual polishing.

Authenticity is verified through clear hallmarks stamped directly onto the silver, which usually include the makers mark (such as S.M for Sampson Mordan), the lion passant for sterling silver, the town mark for the assay office, and a date letter corresponding to the year of testing.

Antique silver accessories add a touch of curated sophistication when displayed on a desk, within a glass-fronted cabinet, or laid flat on a coffee table book as a functional conversation piece.

Sterling silver should be kept away from high humidity and direct sunlight, cleaned infrequently using a non-abrasive microfibre cloth specifically treated for silver, and stored without rubber bands or materials that cause accelerated tarnishing.
