FAQs

Introduced to Britain in the seventeenth century alongside imported tea, silver tea caddies were designed to securely store valuable loose leaf tea under a tight lid.

Crafted from 925 sterling silver, these caddies were raised by silversmiths and finished with hand-formed lobes, stepped bases, and fitted lids topped with decorative finials.

Authentic pieces feature official British assay marks, including the lion passant mark for sterling purity, an assay office symbol, a date letter code, and a makers mark.

Display the caddy on a dining room sideboard, serving tray, or mantelpiece alongside ceramic objects to introduce metallic texture to a room.

Wipe gently with a soft microfibre cloth and polish periodically using a specialised silver foam or cloth, avoiding abrasive cleaners that could wear down hallmarks or surface details.
