FAQs

Art Nouveau silverware crafted during the Edwardian period typically combines organic motif elementssuch as trailing floral patterns, insects, and flowing curveswith traditional silversmithing techniques, often transitioning into more structured geometric forms.

Edwardian trinket dishes were primarily made from solid sterling silver. Silversmiths utilised press-moulding, hand-chasing, engraving, and pierced openwork border detailing to achieve delicate foliage and filigree designs.

Authentic British sterling silver features official assay hallmarks, including the lion passant mark for purity, a town mark indicating the assay office, a date letter, and a registered makers mark.

These small vessels serve as functional decorative accents on a bedside table or bathroom counter, serving as catchalls for fine jewellery, keys, or loose items.

Maintain sterling silver by wiping gently with a non-abrasive silver polishing cloth. Avoid harsh chemical dips and store in dry conditions to minimise oxidisation and tarnish.
