FAQs

Novelty silver pin cushions are decorative sewing accessories cast or struck from sterling silver in figurative shapes, such as shoes, animals, or vehicles, featuring a fabric insert to hold steel pins.

These items are constructed from hallmarked sterling silver shells filled with a weighting material like lead or wood, topped with a velvet or silk stuffed cushion to retain pins without causing rust.

Authentic British pieces bear official assay office hallmarks, including the sterling silver lion passant mark, a city mark such as the Birmingham anchor, a date letter, and a makers mark stamped into the silver body.

Small silver novelties can be displayed on a vanity table, arranged alongside books on a shelf, or placed inside a glazed display cabinet to add historical interest to a room.

Clean silver components using a dedicated silver polishing cloth, taking care to avoid getting liquid polishes on the velvet fabric or inside the cushion core.
