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.

Decanter labels, historically referred to as wine tickets, originated in the 18th century to identify liquids stored inside opaque or decorative glass decanters on formal dining tables.

Antique decanter labels were primarily crafted from sterling silver, Sheffield plate, or mother-of-pearl, and were fitted with fine metal suspension chains.

Authentic Georgian silver labels display official British hallmarks, such as the makers mark, lion passant, monarchs head duty mark, and date letter, stamped on either the front or reverse surface.

Drape the silver label around the neck of a glass or crystal decanter displayed on a bar cart, drinks tray, or sideboard to add historic character to modern table settings.

Gently wipe the surface using a soft cotton cloth and specialized silver polish, avoiding harsh chemical dips or abrasive cloths that could wear away delicate engraving.
