FAQs

Cased silver spoon sets became popular during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries as presentation gifts for christenings, weddings, and anniversaries. Housed in custom fitted boxes, these sets reflected traditional British silversmithing techniques and were intended for formal tea service or cabinet display.

Mid-century British flatware is crafted from sterling silver, an alloy composed of 92.5 percent pure silver and copper added for structural durability. Presentation boxes were constructed from wood or rigid board wrapped in leatherette and lined with velvet and silk.

Authentic British sterling silver features a series of hallmarks stamped into the metal, including the lion passant mark denoting sterling purity, an assay office town mark, a date letter, and a makers mark.

Open presentation cases can be displayed flat or angled inside a glass cabinet, on a sideboard top, or atop a bar cart. The spoons can also be removed for active table styling alongside contemporary dining ceramics.

Clean sterling silver using a soft cotton cloth and a specialised silver polish to gently lift surface tarnish, avoiding abrasive dipped chemical cleansers. Store the spoons inside their velvet-lined box in a dry room to minimise oxidisation.
