FAQs

A Victorian silver horn vinaigrette is a novelty container shaped like a hunting horn, originally designed to hold a sponge soaked in aromatic vinegar or perfume to mask unpleasant street odours.

These items were predominantly crafted from hallmarked sterling silver, frequently featuring hand-engraved details, internal gilded grilles, and attached chain suspensions for carrying.

Authentic examples bear clear British hallmark stamps, including the makers mark for S. Mordan & Co, date letters, the lion passant for sterling quality, and duty marks indicative of Victorian manufacture.

Small novelty silver items can be displayed within a glass collectors cabinet, mounted inside a shadow box frame, or arranged alongside antique vanity boxes on a dressing table.

Dust gently and wipe the silver exterior with a dry microfibre polishing cloth, taking care to avoid harsh chemical cleaners that could damage delicate hallmarks or internal gilding.
