FAQs

A Georgian silver decanter label, also known as a bottle ticket, is a small silver plaque suspended from a chain around a glass decanter. Introduced in the eighteenth century, these labels served to identify clear glass decanters containing distinct spirits, fortified wines, or liqueurs.

Eighteenth-century bottle tickets were predominantly crafted from sterling silver, Sheffield plate, or enamelled copper. The silver versions were hand-engraved, die-stamped, or cast with borders and lettering indicating specific drinks such as Sherry, Port, or Madeira.

Authentic Georgian silver decanter labels typically feature hallmark stamps denoting the maker, silver purity, duty mark, and date letter, although smaller tickets were sometimes exempt from full hallmark sets. Look for hand-engraved lettering, period-correct link chains, and authentic surface wear around the mounting holes.

An antique silver decanter label is styled by hanging it around the neck of a cut glass or plain glass decanter placed on a dining room sideboard, drinks trolley, or tray. Grouping multiple labelled decanters together creates an organised display for entertaining.

Clean silver decanter labels using a gentle silver polishing cloth to remove tarnish while preserving the natural oxidation in the engraved lettering. Avoid harsh liquid chemical dips that can strip away intentional contrast or damage delicate chain links.
