FAQs

Silver decanter labels, often called bottle tickets, emerged in England during the mid-18th century to identify unlabelled decanted wines and spirits, evolving into highly ornate decorative barware items by the Victorian era.

These items were predominantly crafted from sterling silver using techniques such as stamping, pierced work, hand-engraving, and chased borders, often suspended by matching silver link chains.

Authenticity is typically verified by examining hallmarks stamped on the reverse or rim, which include the makers mark, standard mark indicating sterling silver, assay office mark, and a date letter corresponding to the active period.

Antique silver accessories can be displayed on a mirrored bar cart, hung around contemporary crystal decanters on a sideboard, or styled within a glass-fronted cabinet to add historical contrast to a room.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly using a non-abrasive microfibre cloth and specialized silver polish designed to preserve the delicate engravings and natural patina, avoiding harsh chemical dips.
