FAQs

Victorian card cases became essential accessories during the 19th century due to strict social etiquette surrounding calling cards, which were used for formal visits and social networking.

These cases were typically crafted from solid sterling silver, often featuring detailed repousse, chasing, or engravework, and lined with silk or velvet interiors.

Authentic pieces are identified by clear British hallmarks stamped into the metal, which indicate the assay office, standard of silver, and the year of manufacture.

They can be displayed on a mantelpiece, coffee table tray, or inside a glass cabinet as part of a curated collection of small historical curiosities.

Preserve antique silver by storing it in a dry environment, handling it with soft cloths to avoid scratching, and using specialised silver polish sparingly to maintain the original patina.
