FAQs

Old Sheffield plate church chalices are liturgical vessels produced using a process of fusing sheets of silver to a copper core, widely manufactured in Britain during the late 18th and early 19th centuries for ecclesiastical use.

These vessels were crafted by sandwiching a copper ingot between thin sheets of sterling silver, rolling the metal into sheets, and hand-hammering or spinning the form into shapes featuring knopped stems and stepped bases.

Authentic pieces often exhibit slight exposure of the copper core on raised areas due to historical polishing, termed bleeding, as well as turned silver wire rims and turned copper-covered base undersides.

A pair of silver chalices can be styled on a sideboard top, mantelpiece, or within a glass display cabinet alongside leather-bound books and period ceramics to add architectural structure.

Dust regularly with a dry, soft microfibre cloth and polish sparingly using non-abrasive silver cream to avoid wearing down the fused silver layer.
