FAQs

An egg cruet is a specialised piece of dining tableware designed to hold individual egg cups, often accompanied by matching spoons, used during breakfast service in 18th to early 20th-century households.

George V egg cruets were crafted from solid sterling silver (925 purity) using silversmithing techniques such as casting, hand-spinning, and soldering of the central frame and handles.

Authentic British sterling silver from this period displays official hallmarks, including the lion passant mark, a town mark, a date letter for the George V reign (19101936), and a registered makers mark.

An antique silver egg cruet can be placed as a centrepiece on a dining table or arranged on a sideboard top to hold small accessories, jewellery, or condiments.

Sterling silver should be wiped with a soft microfiber cloth and polished periodically using a non-abrasive silver cream to remove oxidisation and preserve the surface.
