FAQs

Napkin rings were introduced in France in the early nineteenth century to identify individual cloth napkins between washings in wealthy households. As silver manufacturing expanded throughout the Victorian and Edwardian eras, numbered or individually decorated silver napkin rings became standard items in European dining sets.

Silver napkin rings from this era were typically formed from sheet sterling silver, joined at a seam, and finished with decorative borders such as beaded or gadrooned wire. Artisans applied surface decoration through hand engraving, chasing, or engine turning before applying British assay office hallmarks.

Authentic British sterling silver items feature a standard set of hallmark stamps, including the makers mark, the lion passant for sterling quality, an assay town mark, and a date letter corresponding to the year of manufacture.

Antique silver napkin rings can be paired with modern linen napkins to create contrast on a contemporary table setting. They work effectively against neutral table runners, dark wooden surfaces, or layered stoneware dinner sets.

Clean silver napkin rings using a soft cloth and specialist silver polish to remove tarnish, avoiding abrasive creams that can wear down detailed engraving. Store pieces in anti-tarnish cloth bags in low-humidity environments to minimise oxidisation.
