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.

Introduced in the late eighteenth century and popularised through the Arts and Crafts movement, caddy spoons were designed to measure dried tea leaves from a tea caddy into a teapot. Craftsmen of the early twentieth century favoured hand-worked techniques, producing distinctively tactile spoons with planished finishes and decorative enamel work.

Pieces from this period typically feature sterling silver shaped by hand-hammering, known as planishing, which leaves subtle facets across the metal surface. Accents often incorporate guilloche or champleve vitreous enamel set into finials, paired with twisted wirework or geometric stems.

Authentic items feature British silver hallmarks, including a makers mark, town mark, lion passant for sterling purity, and a date letter. Visible hand-planishing marks and genuine vitreous enamel insets with minor surface age consistent with mid-twentieth-century production further confirm authenticity.

Small silverware items are frequently styled on a sideboard alongside a contemporary tea set or displayed in a velvet-lined shadow box frame on a gallery wall. They can also be integrated into a glass vitrine cabinet with other silver and decorative curios.

Wipe the silver gently with a soft silver-polishing cloth, avoiding abrasive chemical cleaners that can damage the surface finish. Enamel elements should never be submerged in liquid or exposed to extreme temperature changes, as this can cause cracking or detachment.
