FAQs

A boat-shaped silver dish, often termed a navette dish, features an elongated oval form with raised, pointed ends inspired by classical vessel shapes. Popularised during the eighteenth century, these dishes were primarily used for serving sweets, fruits, or bread.

Pierced silver bowls were crafted by hand-cutting intricate fretwork patterns into sheet silver using fine saws or specialized punch dies. Decorative elements such as beaded borders, casting, and repousse details were subsequently applied and soldered onto the frame.

Authentic sterling silver items feature official hallmarks indicating the purity standard (such as the lion passant in Britain), the assay office mark, the makers mark, and a date letter denoting the year of manufacture.

Antique silver bowls function as functional focal points on sideboards, dining tables, or hall consoles. They can be displayed empty to highlight the metalwork or used to hold dried botanical displays and fruit.

Sterling silver should be cleaned using a specialised silver polish applied with a soft cotton cloth or sponge. Regular gentle wiping prevents tarnish build-up, and pieces should be stored in acid-free tissue or anti-tarnish cloth bags away from direct humidity.
