FAQs

Silver lustreware was developed in England during the late eighteenth century and gained widespread popularity in the early nineteenth century. Potters used platinum oxides to create a metallic sheen that mimicked expensive solid silverware at an affordable price.

A solution containing platinum was painted over the fired, glazed ceramic body. When fired again at a lower temperature in a muffle kiln, the organic compound burnt away, leaving a thin layer of metallic platinum fused to the surface.

Authentic pieces often feature lightweight earthenware bodies, subtle surface crazing beneath the glaze, and signs of gentle oxidation or minor wear to the metallic trim consistent with age.

Place the jug on a wooden sideboard, dining table, or open bookshelf as a standalone decorative accent, or pair it with natural botanical stems to contrast against the metallic lustre.

Dust gently with a soft dry microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive sponges, and immersing the item in water, as this can degrade the thin metallic platinum layer and damage the glaze.
