FAQs

During the Georgian era, basting spoons were designed as substantial serving implements used in dining rooms and kitchens to gather pan juices while roasting meats.

These implements were hand-forged from sterling silver, consisting of 92.5 percent pure silver alloyed with copper to provide necessary strength for daily use.

Authentic Irish sterling silver from 1809 carries official assay stamps, including the Hibernia mark, the crowned harp, a specific year date letter, and the makers mark.

Display antique silver spoons on a sideboard tray alongside crystal glass, store them in a framed shadow box, or incorporate them into formal dining table settings.

Clean silver gently using specialized silver polish and a soft microfibre cloth, storing pieces in tarnish-inhibiting cloth bags to minimize oxidisation.
