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

Decanter labels, also known as bottle tickets, originated in the eighteenth century to identify the contents of opaque glass or ceramic decanters on formal dining tables.

Georgian wine labels were predominantly crafted from sterling silver, Sheffield plate, or enamel, often featuring hand-engraved or die-stamped lettering suspended on a delicate chain.

Authentic pieces feature official British hallmarks indicating the silver purity mark, town mark, makers initials, and date letter stamped into the reverse or margin of the label.

Draped around glass or crystal decanters on a drinks trolley, home bar setup, or sideboard, silver labels add functional historic detail to modern entertaining spaces.

Clean gently using a soft, non-abrasive cloth and dedicated silver polish, avoiding harsh submersion that could damage fine solder joints or chain links.
