The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Late Victorian silver salt cellars often featured revived classical decorative elements such as swags, festoons, and pedestal bases, reflecting Neo-Classical design influences prevalent at the end of the nineteenth century.

These pieces were typically raised from sterling silver sheets, decorated using chasing or repousse metalworking techniques, and frequently gilded internally to prevent salt corrosion.

Authentic British sterling silver of this period bears a full set of hallmarks, including the lion passant mark for silver purity, a town mark, a makers mark, and a specific date letter corresponding to 1899.

Antique silver salts can be positioned on a contemporary dining table to hold coarse sea salts or spices, or placed on a dressing table to store small items of jewellery.

Wash gently in warm water with mild dish soap and dry immediately with a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive silver polishes on the interior gold wash to preserve the gilding.
