FAQs

Edwardian Scottish thistle jewellery typically features stylised floral motifs representing the national emblem of Scotland, often rendered in silver and set with yellow quartz, citrine, or faceted coloured glass.

Traditional Scottish Revival brooches were crafted using sterling silver, hallmarked white metals, or pewter, frequently embellished with native stones such as agate, smoky quartz, and yellow citrines.

Authentic Edwardian brooches usually display British silver hallmarks or makers marks, C-clasp or tube hinge fasteners, and structural details characteristic of early 20th-century metalwork.

An antique brooch can be styled by securing it to the lapel of a tailored blazer, fastening a wool scarf, or accenting a coat collar for a traditional touch.

Clean silver components gently using a soft silver polishing cloth, avoiding chemical dips or submerged water baths that could loosen stone settings or damage foil backings.
