The Sustainable Choice

FAQs

Old Sheffield Plate refers to a metalworking process developed in the eighteenth century where a sheet of silver was fused to copper before being rolled into sheets and crafted into functional items such as baskets, trays, and hollowware.

Baskets from this period were formed from fused copper and silver sheets, frequently incorporating die-struck floral borders and cast elements soldered around the outer rim and handle.

Authentic pieces often exhibit slight copper exposure on high-wear areas, termed bleeding, and may feature turned silver wire edges or inset sterling silver shields intended for engraved crests.

An antique silver basket functions as a table centrepiece for displaying fruit, a sideboard accent, or a decorative focal point placed on a hallway console.

Maintain silver plate by polishing gently with a soft cotton cloth and a non-abrasive silver cream to avoid stripping the thin surface layer of fused silver.
