FAQs

A Georgian silver mug, often referred to historically as a cann or tankard, is a handle-equipped silver drinking vessel crafted during the reign of the British Georgian monarchs between 1714 and 1830.

These vessels were hand-raised from sterling silver sheet metal with a guaranteed 92.5 percent purity standard, featuring cast decorative handles and applied reeded or stepped mouldings around the rim and pedestal base.

Authentic George IV silver displays a complete set of stamped British hallmarks, including the makers mark, town mark such as the leopards head for London, sterling lion passant, date letter, and the monarch duty mark depicting George IV.

Antique silver tankards can be styled as decorative accents on a sideboard top, repurposed as small floral vessels for a dining arrangement, or integrated into a curated drinks cabinet display.

Silver vessels should be polished periodically using a specialized non-abrasive silver polish and a soft microfibre cloth to control tarnish, avoiding harsh chemical cleansers or abrasive pads that damage the soft metallic surface.
